Publisher Description

In My Sister Dilly, Christy Award nominee Maureen Lang explores the anguish of hurting hearts and the power of God's sustaining grace. Had Hannah only known the toll of a daughter's constant cerebral palsy care on her sister Dilly, maybe she could have prevented the shocking acts that sent Dilly to prison. But Hannah's here now to take Dilly home and shield her from the hatred of unforgiving hearts. "A sincere voice, offering a strong story with likable characters."-Library Journal

    " I enjoyed the midwestern farm/small town setting and thought the sister relationship was very realistic. I learned about the extreme stress of caring for a special needs child and how faith helps some cope with this situation. "

    " This was a heart-warming story about sisters and families and loss and love and God. But mostly, for me, it was about perceptions - of ourselves, of others, of our past - and how once you face how things really are as opposed to how you see them, your life will never be the same. "
