Summary: The book that changed me the most
Review: This book converted me from being a confirmed atheist to a shaky atheist and then to a shaky agnostic. After each reading of this book (more than five times in two years), I have changed some of my attitudes towards God, towards Godliness, towards nearly everything. It is a "once in a lifetime" kind of book. The sequels to this book are also as good. The drawings of Papas enhance the quality of the book. Even if they had not been there, this would have been a great book, but the drawings make it even greater (if it were possible).

Summary: "The differense between people and angels is easy,...
Review: ...people is mostly on the outside and angels is mostly on the inside." With simple, compelling wisdom such as this, Anna inspires exciting, fulfilling and down-to-earth spiritual and religious discoveries for both Fynn and the reader. One can't help but fall completely in love with this 6-year-old angel who seems to have so strong a grasp on the true essentials of "Mister God." Fynn's entire life is irrevocably changed by this captivating little philosopher who seems to have a simple, satisfying answer to every question. Whether you are christian, agnostic or atheist, Anna has something special to teach you about embracing beliefs and bringing them vibrantly to life. Never once preaching, the novel is an endless series or discoveries which will have you laughing, crying and smiling at every step you take. The illustrations by Papas beautifully capture the warmth of the book and are a treasure unto themselves. My fiance read this book to me, and I plan to read it to each of my children. Everyone needs a little angel like Anna in their life

Summary: Fact or fiction...
Review: I recall reading this book as a child of 10 and liking it, although even then it seemed marvellous to me that a 5-year old girl could spout philosophy and even seem knowledgeable in mathematics, etc. But since the book is advertized as fact, I did not think to pursue that line of thought. Almost 20 years later, I've hunted down and read excerpts of the book, and I am beginning to be convinced that this book is a work of fiction, and that Anna is the author's creation and may in fact never have existed. Instead, the author used her as a vehicle to market or deliver his beliefs and philosophy on life. Unfortunately, the book has been written so long ago that I cannot, at present, find out whether this suspicion is true, i.e. whether anyone bothered to look into this matter. Therefore, I may not have a definite answer to this. However, the style of the book seems to confirm this. The religious cliche of the innocence of children who are therefore more in touch with God than adults is the very basis for the book. Anna's outstanding intelligence is further 'proof' that she was in some way extraordinary, and in touch with the laws of the universe (i.e. with a higher power). The fact that she spends all her time thinking about God when most 5-year olds never have an instinctive leaning towards religion, particularly for any type of religion (which is why so many religions exist). And so on...

Summary: "The Little Princess"
Review: In much the same lyrical quality of Saint-Exupery's 'The Little Prince', 'Mister God' allows us to 'get small', as Anna would say, and see the world as a still wonderful place. I first discovered this book almost 25 years ago, and have given as gifts countless copies whenever I can find it. The copy on my shelf today is from the 19th printing in 1985. I cannot think of anyone -- young, old, sinner, cynic, saint -- who would not enjoy the wit, wisdom and other-worldliness of spritely Anna and her exuberant joust with -- and quest for -- the truest reality. Anna's relationship with Old Woody is a pattern for adult-child relationships not easily surpassed. Fynn proves coming of age often means not leaving childhood behind, but hauling it with you into adulthood. If you've not yet discovered a pair of companion books -- 'Anna's Book', and 'Anna, Mister God, and the Black Knight', both also by Fynn -- seek them out and latch onto them if you can find them. If joy has a name, it is Anna.

Review: This book was interesting. It is kind of hard to believe that this actually happened though. I'm not a big fan of religious things though.

Summary: The best book ever
Review: This book continues to touch my life. From my first encounter with the book, it helped clarify much of what I felt about God. The reviews below have certainly expressed exactly how I feel. This is the best book I have ever purchased. And Purchased. I have given away so many copies. I would never dream of loaning my copy. Read it. It will have a beautiful effect on your life.

Summary: Wonderful Anna
Review: This book touched my soul. I found this book in my Grandparents basement one day and I don't know what it was about the book but it drew me and I just picked it up and started reading, I did not stop until it was finished. I cried, laughed, thought, and wondered along with Anna and Fynn from the very first page to the very last. This book is pure joy and wonder, just like Anna. I suppose most importantly I learned from Anna, things about life, things about myself. Anna was truly full up, she is now and forever will be in my middle. Whats that the answer to?
