More about the book:

True story of a 4-year-old found on the streets of London in the 1930's by a 19-year old blue collar worker with a passion for math and music and all things mechanical. The first edition included the tale of how the book's manuscript came into the hands of the publisher and of a meeting with "Fynn," the book's author; all subsequent editions have omitted it.

Anna had an intimate relationship with "Mister God," and searched for him in all things. Everything and everyone in creation was evidence for Anna that God existed, that he was a gentleman, and that he loved people in ways they could not possible comprehend. She prayed for the gift of asking "real questions" and to avoid those which led nowhere.

Anna’s ideas are sure to resonate with the child inside everyone - her fearless trust, her refusal to accept adult explanations based on fear, her spirit afire with love of God. Look at Anna's love; look at the relationship between Anna and Fynn. Smile at their willingness to turn the world upside down and see God everywhere
