My biggest fear in life is losing my loved ones. I don’t know about you. Each time I see a family grieving an unnatural death, a lot of questions come into my head. And, in all honesty, I don’t think I can bear such pain. The love of family cannot be imagined. I cried when I read the book Puzzles! by Nancy Miller, but I am glad for the lessons I learned from it.

The Emilia Angel Murphy family is the perfect family everyone prays for. The world would be a happier place if every family were like Emilia's, because love is the keyword to describe a family. It was a peaceful and small home where everyone was delighted. Emilia’s father was a kind-hearted man who always returned home on time, but then it was different this time; she waited till it was late and her dad wasn’t back. Something seems wrong. Finally, the news broke to Emilia that her dad was dead. This is heartbreaking for young Emilia. But there is something about the heart of the father that still beats. I'm sure you want to get this twist. Get a copy.

The first thing I would want to mention about this book is the description. I was so eager to get to this point where I could praise the author for the exceptional work done in the description of this book, not just the characters alone but the events in the book. It would be difficult for someone to have a hard time reading this book, owing to how well described it was. I didn’t understand the cover page of this book event, though it was artistically appealing. When I was done reading, I went back to the cover page and looked at it, and it felt like I was in the world of Emilia. I get to appreciate the power of love in this book, and I must say it is the greatest. In terms of the overall organization of this book, I would say it was great. I haven’t noticed any errors while reading; it shows the book was well-edited.

The only thing that did not sit well with me was that this book is way too advanced for a children's book. Aside from that, I enjoyed every bit of it, and it was a source of healing for those who have lost a loved one.

There are no tangible reasons to deduct any stars from this book due to how amazing it was. Therefore, I will rate it five out of five stars. I would also recommend this book to those who love reading books with family.

Losing a loved one can be depressing, but Losing a parent is far worse. Wonder how Emilia felt. Can’t wait to get a copy of this book to know how Emilia was able to handle her pain.

Nancy Miller's "puzzle" feels me the pain of losing my loved one that can be mom ,dad love able grandpa or garma any one of family . she explains an unbreakable bond in family and love in family and this is a very good book for children. In this modern world children are influencing away from love of family. This book can open their a third eye for the bond and love of family for children.
