“A Letter from Heaven‪”‬

Have you ever wondered what Heaven might be like? It is the home where

many of our loved ones have gone to live when we have had to say goodbye

to them. Imagine someone arriving there and being able to send a letter

back about what it was like! And maybe that someone was so special that

God wanted her in Heaven a little earlier than usual.

Shortly after author Yvonne Riley Bonadio’s daughter Yvette died on April

1, 2000—two weeks before her eleventh birthday—Yvonne began to fi nd

comfort in picturing her in Heaven and imagining her life there. In A Letter

from Heaven, she describes how she envisions her daughter’s arrival in

Heaven and what she does while there, in the form of a love letter from

daughter to mother.

Intended to encourage conversations about the wonders of Heaven, this

children’s story shares a letter from a little girl in Heaven written to her

mother back on earth
