    I enjoyed reading all about Jen and Bill Arnold. I have watched and love their show. I have learned so much about the challenges of Little People and I now have an understanding of their feelings. Jen and Bill are terrific parents but even more inspiring, a truly loving couple who have so much love for each other. It's so evident in everything they do for and with each other. Their children Will and Zoey are so joyful to watch. They are just plain adorable. This book explains step by step of their lives before and after their marriage. They may be little people but they have bigger hearts than a lot of people I know. Thank You Jen and Bill for sharing your uphill battles, your pain and hopes and finally your joys.

    I've watched their TLC show since the beginning and although the first half of the book gives more a more intimate storyline, the second half was what you've seen on TV. Still very sweet to a very loving couple and family

    A wonderful read and inspiring story about becoming a family. I love your show and appreciated a look beyond the cameras. A story about real people living through very difficult trials and coming out stronger and better. Your journey gives hope to people like myself, struggling with medical issues that life surely goes on. Thank you for sharing you life story.

    I throughly enjoyed every page of your book. You story is about two remarkable people, and their remarkable families . The parent's you had, had a true understanding of how to love and raise you as a child. They didn't see what your limits would be, as much as they saw the person's each of you are. Your lives are full of determination and strength of character. I felt compassion for the pain and hardship you had as children, but you were just like every other child in every other way, and needed to be treated as children. You both are people that would be a joy to know. What an enjoyable book! I hope to watch your beautiful children grow up on your TV show. It is one of my favorite shows. I pray you both will have a healthy and long life together.

    I gave this book a 5 star rating. I have watched the TV show "The Little Couple" since it started. I fell in love with Bill, Jennifer, Will and Zoey from the start. However it opened my eyes in what Bill and Jen went through with all the surgeries. They faced many obstacles in their lives and yet they persevered. Will went through so much being bullied at school and almost ended his life. I look at them as regular people, but yet our society looks at them not being able to do things because they are little people. It proved no matter who we are we can achieve. I'm American Indian some people have put a label on us that we cannot read or accomplish much in our lives. Thank for publishing this book. Sincerely Gerri Gros Venor Nespelem, WA
