Scrumptious!!,

This review is from: The Awe-Manac: A Daily Dose Of Wonder (Hardcover)
This book is as delicious as a hot fudge sundae smothered with Skor bits, sprinkles and at LEAST two different kinds of toppings! It makes every day special by providing sparkles and fairy dust for your mind, heart, and soul. I work as a therapist, and my clients have come to expect that our sessions end with me reading them their "daily dose of wonder". Thank you, Jill Badonsky, for enriching our days with your Journal Jujus, your Doses of Mirths, and your Awe-lixirs that heal all sorts of ailments. And on the 366th day, the Toast of the Day is to the Author of the Awe-Manac!!The Awe-Manac: A Daily Dose Of Wonder

A Blissful Book!,
By Lisa M. Bolender - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Awe-Manac: A Daily Dose Of Wonder (Hardcover)
What a treat! I have been up early every morning since my Awe-manac arrived to indulge in creativity before breakfast, and set a positive and uplifting tone for my day. The variety of prompts and exercises each day give me a chance to play with something familiar(like collage/mixed media), or maybe with something that stretches my creative wings(me? write poetry?, why not?!). I also enjoy the quotes, humor, and playfulness of the illustrations. I can envision this becoming one of my "well-loved" books, a bit battered from lots of use, always nearby and available for another creative adventure.

Awe-Fully good,
By Sharon A. Albert - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Awe-Manac: A Daily Dose Of Wonder (Hardcover)
THE AWE-MANAC delivers on the promise of its name: 459 pages created with a daily dose of awe,delight,& wonder.I love this book.The whimsical & strikingly colorful illustrations are a high to see. Daily amusing inspirations, useful suggestions & exercises such as "Toasts of the Day, Aha-phrodisiacs, Daily Soul Vitamins, & my favorite--Dose of Mirth," puts more fun & play into creativity than anything I have seen (although Jill's previous Muse book was great fun too). As an expert in enjoyment of,& engagement & meaning in life,I heartily recommend this daily companion to not only excite your creative gene but to uplift the spirit & upgrade your quality of life.

An amazing and wonderful and truly AWE-some treat,
By Jeanne C. Hillson "Creativity Coach" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Awe-Manac: A Daily Dose Of Wonder (Hardcover)
My Awe-manacs jumped out of the Amazon box this morning and danced around the room!A few jumped pretty high. Anyone who's familiar with Jill Badonsky's witty, exciting work will see that she's outdone herself with this one! Its pages offer varieties of delightful and practical inspiration to live consciously and creatively, and open to "what if." Its gifts and surprises will stay fresh year after year and, to quote from an early page: "All the months and days are in order, for your convenience." This is one amazing and wonderful and truly AWE-some treat. |
