I really missed my grandparents' stories. This review has reminded me how important the stories our grandparents usually tell us in our everyday life are. Thanks for this great review.

Looking back from the past and listening to the old stories is sometimes interesting. What if we will have the chance to travel in the past and be with our grandparents? This sounds interesting. Thank for your detailed review.

The Tattered Box By Paul Schumacl this novel reminds me of when I was much younger and my mom used to read and tell me tales not exactly like this one but quiet similar.

The plot is well placed and makes the reader wanting to read more and more. Though the box was a timeworn box it was filled with items from the past which all had a meaning.

Its an excellent review. A time travel adventure about a boy named John that travels to live a similar life as his grandfather. He also comes to understand events in the history of his grandfather and learn the meaning of each item in the tattered box. Its an awesome story and i will give it 4 stars. It reminds me of the stories my grandpa used to tell us.Congrats for being the BOTD.

Thanks for a wonderful review. Sometimes we take our elder relatives for granted. This is a heartwarming story to wake us up into realising what a treasure they represent.

The tittle kept me wondering on what the content of such a book could be. But after going through, I cannot help but to conclude that the book, tattered box , is a book for everyone who loves the past, appreciate the present, and seek great knowledge for tomorrow.
