It’s never expected that a book-to-movie-adaption will be exactly the same as the original book (even the Director’s Cut, which is what I saw). Now recently, the movie based on the book came out. Especially since it’s a true story about Heaven – a topic many of us wonder about and not many people know much about. It really is extraordinary, and the book itself is definitely worth a read. Burpo’s book takes you through the impossible yet true journey of his little boy’s experiences as told by Colton to him. Even though Colton’s dad is a pastor, he too felt this way. Now one’s reaction at first would be “What? No way! Impossible!” and then be flooded with questions that they just have to ask. Even more miraculous, Colton later told his parents that he went to Heaven during his surgery. All his doctors and nurses thought this was a miracle in itself because he was that sick. When Colton was almost 4 years old, he became very sick with appendicitis – and almost died. Heaven is For Real is a book written in 2010 about a little boy named Colton Burpo by his father Todd Burpo.
