My mom gave me a copy for Mothers' Day
What an encouraging and uplifting book. Gordon B. Hinckley has always publically expressed his awe for and appreciation of women and this book puts his words to beautiful art.
'Woman is God's supreme cretion. Only after the earth had been formed, after the day had been separated from the night, after the waters had been divided from the land, after vegetation and animal life had been reated, and after man had been placed on the earth, was woman created; and only then was the work ...more

First of all, this book is beautiful to look at, with breathtaking illustrations. Needless to say, the quotes were inspiring. It was so good to "hear" President Hinckley's voice again.

I read this book periodically. This collection of beautiful quotes and pictures is truly inspiring and shows how much President Hinckley had a deep love and admiration for women. I bought this book for my mom, sisters, and girlfriends for mothers day, although some are not LDS, I felt that they could still appreciate this book and KNOW how important they are in their roles as women; daughters, sisters, mothers, friends, etc. I highly recommend this book to all women, and not just LDS women.

This was a sweet inspirational book, full of beautiful artwork and uplifting encouraging words for women. As I read I was reminded of how wonderful it is to be a daughter of God and the great responsibility I have in building His kingdom here on earth. It made me want to try harder and be a better daughter, wife, mother, sister, and friend. Thanks Mom!

This is really not a "book" per se... more just a collection of quotes, but they are all super inspirational, of course. I will use them for future FHE's with my daughter for sure. Lots of good stuff.

Lovely thoughts/revelations on women that can brighten any woman's life, not only the Latter-day Saint. I miss Gordon B. Hinckley.

I loved this book! It has beautiful art and wonderful words from Gordon B. Hinckley. I would like to share my favortie passage from the book. "You have the potential to become anything to which you set your mind. You have a mind and a body and a spirit. With these three working together, you can walk the high road that leads to achievement and happiness. But this will require effort and sacrifice and faith."
As always President Hinckley's love, compassion and understanding just jumped off the pages to support, encourage and boost up the women who read this book. Marjory Pay Hinckley also contributed and fast confirmed to me that she was a woman that just knew who she was, what her purpose was and knew her place in the life and heart of our Father in Heaven. Every woman, mother and female NEEDS to read this book.

I loved President Hinkley and adored sister Hinkley. They were such a wonderful examples to me of what it was to be faithful, service-oriented, and generous with their love. I enjoyed this beautiful quick read. I never tire of hearing their pearls of wisdom, no matter how often I hear those same words, over and over again. A wonderful VT gift or thoughtful gift to a friend. I highly recommend it.

Fantastic!! Leaves you with such a sweet spirit in your heart and soul. I loved the powerful quotes from a prophet of God. You can truly tell just how much President Hinckley loved the women of the church. The artwork was also so beautiful and inspiring. I read it in less than a half hour but I know that I will keep it close to re-read often.

What a surprise, I loved this book. :-) This is my new Prozac book--those days when I am down and need a pick-me-up, these beautiful quotes on womanhood by beloved President Hinckley, paired with exquisite paintings--it'd need to be a dark day indeed that this wouldn't help. Beautiful.

How wonderful Pres. Hinckley's final book is for women! Reading his words give me such hope and optimism. He and his wife Marjorie were such an example of a happy loving couple. Its nice to have a book with quotes from both. A beautiful keepsake, one I will keep open and close by!
