"A gold medal winner and highly recommended."
-- The Wishing Shelf Book Awards (U.K.)
". . . Chapman's prose offers vivid detail and self reflection. . . . A brave recollection of a shattering loss."
-- Kirkus Reviews
". . . Unmasking the raw emotional experience of sudden tragic news and the agonizing process of grief that follows with the loss of a child, Chapman's fearless and inspiring account takes readers through every stage with a full heart and immersive narration. . . . Author Sherry Chapman writes with literary confidence that makes readers feel as though they are in safe hands, even through the darkest and most emotionally precarious moments of this hard-hitting reading experience. Readers who have experienced similar sudden tragedies are certain to take heart and support when reading Chapman's account, and for those lucky enough to be ignorant of the experience, it's a true window into the soul and psyche that, once read, cannot ever be forgotten . . . How Much Big Is the Sky: A Memoir of a Mother's Love and Unfathomable Loss is an incredible and highly emotive work of memoir that is sure to touch the heart of anyone that reads it."
