A few things people are saying about A Good and Perfect Gift:

Becker knows how to grab a reader’s heartstrings and never let go . . . Her work is introspective and theologically inquisitive, leading readers to ask the same questions this mother asks herself as her world tilted off its axis.
— Publisher’s Weekly (starred review)

Awe inspiring, courageous and honest, I could not put this book down until I reached the final page . . . Amy Julia shares the beauty of her daughter Penny, the person that she is, not just the diagnosis the professionals speak over her daughter. This book touched my life in ways I never envisaged. I recommend this book for everyone.
Review by Jayne Hounsome, Christian Marketplace Magazine

A Good and Perfect Gift is loving, thoughtful, and full of just the kind of spiritual questions that so many family members – including those who aren’t Christian, like me – have had, too. It’s sweet and lovely, and I’m very glad it exists.
–Rachel Simon, bestselling author of Riding the Bus with my Sister and The Story of Beautiful Girl
