Answers to Your Questions about A Journey of the Heart

Question	From	Answer
Were the O'Malley's a real family?	Dave	They were real to Jake, but no they didn't actually exist in history.
The day they were crossing the icey river, did the handcart company just think that jake died?	Cierra	As odd as it may sound, I don't know the answer to your question. As I write, I follow the story line and leave the rest up to the imagination of the reader. So you get to decide!
Is this a true story?	Amy	Most of the pioneer stories described in Journey of the Heart are true. With the exception of the O'Malley family, all of the pioneers Jake met were actual pioneers--including Annie. You can learn more about each of them through Jake's research notes which you can download at www.journeyoftheheartbook.com/notesdownload.
Are the people that portrayed Annie and Jake people you know?	Tylee	Well I've never met Annie, but in a way I know her. She is my great, great grandma. So yes, I know her and hope that someday when I get to meet her she will forgive me for using her in a story. Jake is a fictional character.

What Readers are Saying about Journey of the Heart

I purchased the book for a granddaughter who just experienced a 'pioneer trek', but read it first and thoroughly enjoyed it! Though it is written for young adults, it is a compelling, interesting, fast read for an adult with the added bonus of being faith-promoting for everyone. After reading it, I had a desire to re-read some of my own personal ancestor's stories. I am passing on and recommending this book to our whole family of readers, regardless of age.
