Mandel’s memoir is as riveting and gut wrenching as any piece of thriller fiction I’ve read. Once I started, I couldn’t put this book down until I reached what I knew would be the inevitable unavoidable disaster that had been the reason for the author’s existence. Download the full review

How does it feel when you find out you're a replacement? "Replacement Child" is the poignant reflections of Judy Mandel as she reflects on her parent's tragedy before she was born, drawing on wisdom she gains as a daughter who turned into a mother herself. A touching story any parent will relate to when they have to make tough choices about their children and live their lives full of regret. "Replacement Child" is touching and is a memoir that should not be overlooked by grieving parents.
