Product Description
From Amazon
It's like homemade chicken soup that warms the chill and heals the ill. This collection of 101 stories is based on the belief that true testimonies of goodness and loving transformations can nourish us to the bone and heal the cynicism in our hearts. Indeed, most every story seeps in deeply. It's hard not to shed a tear of gratitude, feeling thrilled to have been touched and soothed so easily. Some of the authors are famous, such as Dan Millman, who writes an exquisite vignette on "Courage," and Gloria Steinem, who writes of "The Royal Knights of Harlem." Many, however, have a short, simple story to tell about an event, a person, an everyday miracle that exemplifies the best of the human spirit. --Gail Hudson

Review
"After interviewing hundreds of rich and famous people, it is clear to me that money and fame don't automatically make people happy. It has to come from within. I'd rather have a million smiles in my heart than a million dollars in my pocket. Chicken Soup for the Soul will help you put a million smiles in your heart." Robin Leach, TV personality and author

These stories make me cry!,
By Zev Saftlas "Founder and Host of EmpoweringMe... (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Chicken Soup for the Soul: 101 Stories to Open the Heart and Rekindle the Spirit (Paperback)
What a great book!Jack Canfield is my motivational role model. His love for humanity and his desire to make this world a better place to live is a stunning example of what someone can achieve when he sets his heart to something. Jack and Mark did a terrific job of compiling really great stories about love, caring and achieving success. Chicken Soup for the Soul is a true classic. If you want some more positive thinking stuff in your life - get a hold of this book today. Reading about love and hope is the only way to combat all the negativity we hear about on the radio and from the media.

It's a wonderful book,
By Pajaree Kambhu (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chicken Soup for the Soul: 101 Stories to Open the Heart and Rekindle the Spirit (Paperback)
Chicken Soup for the soul is wonderful! I didn't believe it when my friend told me to read this book, but now I know that my friend was right.Since I bought this book from a bookstore, I started to read it and found out why my friend told me to read this book. This book has powers. The powers that will inspire, support, and cheer you up when you fell. The stories in this book will show you something you may never think about it, or it may be something that you forget to do to your love ones. I, myself, during I was reading this book, I had a lot of problems about my classes and homework. I was so tired and sometimes I felt like I don't want to study anymore (I know this is sound stupid). However, after I read the story of a boy who wrote "his life list", I realized that life is more than school and homework, and I shouldn't be discouraged with some little problems. Another story in this book that I like it very much is about father and daughter who have their "heart song" that keep them connected to each other even one of them can't speak. When I first finished this story, I had some fears. I feared that if one day my father couldn't tell me he loves me, how am I going to do? Something in this story told me that I should treat people around me very nice, and tell them that I love them before I never had a chance to say. I'm glad I have read this book. I think if someone tell you to read this book, they mean you should read it. After you finish this book you may see the world in the way you've ever seen before.

This review is from: Chicken Soup for the Soul: 101 Stories to Open the Heart and Rekindle the Spirit (Paperback)
This book is great in terms of lessons you get bu reading the book . Is full of little stories that tell the true meaning of life and reveal to us how people , caught up with life, fail to recognise the essentials of our existance . Its a book that you will read over and over again . Its especially good for teachers like myself and inside i found many stories that talk about learning and learners . Great money value . Great gift to someone you love or care in my opinion . No doubt , a 5 -star rating depicts its true value .
