Reviews
I love the chicken soup books. I used to go to a restaurant which had a host who would exclaim, "So good, so good, so good," in reference to the food. Well, I'd like to steal his idea and say that this dose of chicken soup is "So good, so good, so good!" The stories didn't just elicit tears as so many of them do but I found myself starting to sob at the end of some. Some of the people in these stories are challenged incredibly--burn victims, pain warriors, grieving people. And, yet, they manage to find the beauty in their circumstances. My only caution would be that perhaps you have to have a certain amount of strength and resilience to read some of these stories because there are some people who may be far more challenged than you will ever be. I would like to think that they're more challenged than I will ever be! But we never know, do we, what can happen. But there's not one person in this book who doesn't rise to the challenges he or she faces, finding joy amid the sorrow. A truly beautiful book.
