A box containing a conglomeration of buttons has been passed down through the generations, each button representing a story in itself. Generations have repeated the stories behind each button in that old painted brass box. Additional buttons find their way into the box through the years, and their respective stories become a part of the accumulation. The telling of these button stories can be interpreted as lessons in God's divine providence. The lessons presented are as varied as each button is unique.Ginger Marcinkowski has written a poignant and nostalgic look at life and its lessons through these stories represented by an accumulation of buttons. Some are tragic, others amusing, entertaining and even humorous. The events depicted through the lives of these buttons are lessons in life..... parables. This is a walk down Memory Lane for me. I grew up with boxes of buttons, my grandmother's, my mother's, and I listened to the stories behind those buttons, told in much the same manner as the stories told in The Button Legacy. I found this book to be a wonderful story of life and it's tragedies and joys. I highly recommend it!Disclaimer: I received a PDF copy of this book from Cross Focused Reviews in exchange for my review.
