Summary: Best book of mothers' wisdom
Review: I have a collection of books filled with inspirational quotes from mothers, and this is the best of them all. I give it away at baby showers and for Mother's Day gifts, birthdays, and whenever. I've always thought of myself as a good mom, but I must say this little book has helped me be even better. What a joy and what a surprise to be able to say that about such a small book. The Tao of Mom is worth its weight in diamonds.

Summary: The best collection of wisdom
Review: I love all of Taro Gold's books of wisdom, but I have to say I think this one is the best collection of wisdom I've ever found. There are quotes from famous women and completely unknown women around the world... very interesting and inspriing and profound! Great truths for every day of the year.

Summary: Awesome
Review: I love this book and have given it to every mother I know, and some fathers and kids too. Everyone I know who has read it enjoys it. Some of the quotes are profound and thought-provoking, others are funny, some are deeply inspiring. Totally gorgeous inside and out with colorful illustrations that I like to just stop and look at because they are so beautiful. It's priced so low, I think it's the best valued book I've ever bought. Makes it easy to buy a bunch as gifts, which is great because that's what I keep doing.

Summary: Great book for everyone
Review: I met author Taro Gold in Chicago on his book tour this month and he was as delightful and interesting as his books are. I have enjoyed all of his books but I think this one may be my favorite of all. It is called Tao of Mom but it's really a book for everyone and is probably the most diverse and thought-provoking collection of wisdom I have come across in my life.

Summary: 365 Rare and Inspiring Quotations
Review: Joy can spring like a flower even from the cliffs of despair. ~Anne Morrow Lindbergh

For years, Taro Gold was the recipient of journals given to him by his mother each New Year's Day. From these journals, Taro has selected 365 of his favorite quotations. He also includes biographical notes about each quote contributor.

I was captivated by quotes by Madame Chiang Kai-shek, Sei Shonagon, Patricia Clafford, Rosa Parks, Humishuma and Lady Murasaki Shikibu.

Many of the quotes are exclusive to this collection. Taro has included wise quotes from his mother and wise women in his extended family tree. There are quotes filled with humor and profound quotes filled with wisdom. I especially enjoyed the quotes by Great-Grandma Edi and Taro's Mom. Great Aunt Iko explores the idea of expectation and Aunt Kimiko defines adulthood in a creative way.

Everything you want to become on the outside you must first become on the inside. ~Mom

Taro Gold has spent much of his life living overseas. He has been successful as an author, children's counselor, teacher, interpreter, actor, singer and songwriter. He has traveled to over thirty countries and has lived in Australia, Spain and Japan. He has also written extensively for international Buddhist publications.

Taro Gold's books are well worth collecting and make the perfect gifts for any occasion. They are universal in their appeal and always bring moments of enlightenment to your life. The art and patterned pages also add to this books visual appeal.

Summary: My mother loves it
Review: My mother loves this book so much she gave it to every member of our family at her 60th birthday party. Of all times, when she's supposed to be GETTING gifts she's giving everyone else one! What an amazing gesture, and so like a great mom.

This book is an incredible gathering of wisdom from hundreds of mothers around the world. I read from it every day and it often helps me see myself more clearly, appreciate my family better, and I hope it makes me a better person for it. And hopefully a better parent!
