Publisher's summary

In Growing Up in Heaven, New York Times best-selling author and world-famous medium James Van Praagh brings to light the amazing journey of children who have passed from earth to heaven. Growing Up in Heaven follows the path of a child's soul - their time spent in heaven and their connection to the living.

In this, his most moving work, Van Praagh reveals the reality that love transcends the physical and material planes of this world. Growing Up in Heaven lifts our spirits with the knowledge that our departed ones will always be with us - an extraordinary gift for all of us who yearn to understand life on the other side.

Blessed with an exceptional gift, James Van Praagh has the ability to bridge the gap between this world and the next. Based on nearly 30 years of spirit communication, this renowned and beloved medium takes us on a powerful, eye-opening, and ultimately inspiring voyage. Filled with uplifting true stories and profound messages of love, this astounding look at heaven provides a remarkably detailed portrayal of the child's soul as it moves from this world to the next. Our eyes and hearts open, and we experience first-hand the unbreakable bond between parent and child, all the while glimpsing a vision of heaven.

Very enjoyable

Anyone who already enjoys James Van Praagh's books already knows they'll enjoy this one, too... Anyone who thinks he's a fake will not enjoy it. I always enjoy his books very much. What else can you say?

Can Praagh fan.

I read this years ago, so helpful. When my own tragic senseless loss of a grandchild forced me to reach out with the audiobook for comfort. The narrator's voice distracted me but I got used to it. Van Praagh books bring me peace and I bet I listen to it over and over for comfort. if you have a child loss it's a must read. Prayers for our girl and the babies in Texas school shooting.

consoling

I lost my son two years ago, so this was extremely comforting and insightful for me. I wish I could give this book to all who have lost a child.

Unforgetable relation about those who passed away

Great story of real life events, making me more curious about life after my "earthly body" death.
Brings joy and hope to parents who lost their born or unborn child. Really worth listening and reading!

My Anna Banana

James takes you into a different world to connect with your child and attempts to make sense of what none of us can makes sense of-losing your child. This book will be my new bible for years to come. Thank you JVP.

ReviewMyb

I love all of his books. This one really helped me with the death of my cousin, husband, grandpa, and so many friends. I especially love the narrator because he does a wonderful job.
