Plot
editThe book is about the author's then-10-year-old daughter, Annabel Beam, who was diagnosed with a rare terminal stomach disorder. During a visit home from the hospital, she fell; while climbing a tree with her older sister, a branch gave way, sending Annabel 30 feet headfirst into the hollow trunk of a cottonwood tree. She was inside the trunk of the tree for several hours, where she visited with Jesus, who told her she would be fine. She was finally rescued and taken to a hospital. She woke up at the hospital without any broken bones or internal injuries. After this incident, she no longer felt pain from her stomach disorder, and her doctor confirmed that her rare disease was somehow miraculously cured.
Film adaptation
editSony Pictures Entertainment has produced a film adaptation, starring Jennifer Garner, Kylie Rogers, Queen Latifah, Martin Henderson, and Eugenio Derbez. It is directed by Patricia Riggen and scripted by Randy Brown. The film received mixed to positive reviews, with Garner's performance as Christy earning praise.[2][3]
