Todd and his father told me about two other books: Heaven Changes Everythingis a sequel, written when Colton was a little older, which goes into more detail and Heaven Is for Real for Kids. Then Todd stepped in, explaining that he didn’t want people to misunderstand and think that the other stories were from an entirely different child–but that as Colton grew, his vocabulary increased and he remembered and recounted still other stories, many of them. (More on those interviews soon.)Īnyway, I asked Colton whether there were any other stories that he had remembered, but which hadn’t been told in either the best-selling book Heaven Is For Real or in the movie. I talked with stars Greg Kinnear (who played Todd Burpo) and Thomas Haden Church (Jay), as well as with the director, producer and screenwriter. I was in Hollywood, attending a press screening of the movie before the official release date.
