The Button Legacy is an inspirational story of the history of a family told through their memories from different buttons saved.  The family saves buttons that have special meaning to them in a button box and bring those buttons out during different times of their lives.  Many times those stories held a special meaning to the person telling the story, whether it was passing on history or sharing a life lesson.  I was able to, through this story; remember some stories that my grandparents shared with me or something significant that happen in our family that I had not thought about for a while.  I found it touching how many times the youngsters were not very interested in hearing the stories, but when forced to hear them they ate them up, wanting more.I loved how the story went back in time seamlessly to tell the tales of the buttons.  Never did the story drag or slow down with the differences in times and the different characters involved in the stories.  I found myself pictures the timeframe that the buttons would have been worn and what the people who wore them would have been doing.  I also enjoyed how time changed in this family.  Cars appeared, party lines were developed, but through all the changes the family stuck together and shared their history.This is a great story that I recommend.
