Little Big Book Of Life

Summary: Except for the foul language, great book.....
Review: I was dismayed to find this particular "Little Big Book.........." contained some really offensive foul language from Whoppi Goldberg and Chris Rock. It was not needed to make their points! I suggest you send them both dictionaries to help express themselves more kindly in a book that young children will read (or be read to). The rest of the book lived up to the fine standards of the other books in this series.

Summary: Great bits of inspiration
Review: If you like quotes or short essays about how to live your life, what's important in life, and what is funny about being human, this is a great choice. There is a lot of good material here, including graduation speeches, poems and song lyrics. There are a lot of books similar to this for sale, but this one does an exceptionally good job of finding really worthwhile items to inspire even cynics. And the illustrations are good, too. This would be a good buy for a quotation enthusiast or for a young person (maybe a graduate) who needs a boost of optimism and wisdom. And none of it is too heavy--there is much humor here.
