Rating: Summary: Introduces and celebrates ordinary individuals Review: In The Lives And Legacies Of Everyday Heroes, Mark Britzman introduces and celebrates ordinary individuals who posses great character and who have established important legacies for future generations to consider and emulate. These "everyday heroes" are the kind of men and women we all want as family members, friends, neighbors, teachers, colleagues, and mentors. These are common people who's uncommon examples inspire us all to be everyday heroes our selves. Very highly recommended, positive, and inspiring reading.
Rating: Summary: WE NEED MORE BOOKS LIKE THIS!!! Review: The Lives and Legacies of Everyday Heroes inspires me to be a better me. I have met people like Dan the pilot, or the helpful higway patrol man, and this book reminds me of how important a role everyday heroes have had in my life. While popular culture teaches us to "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff," it is precisely because people care enough to go the extra mile and care for our "small stuff" that we can find a little kindness in our day to day lives. This book helped me to see how connected we are to each other, and how important it is for me to look for the little things to help be an "everyday hero" to those I encouter. My kids enjoyed the stories in this book, and I can see them looking for ways to be a hero to others now by doing the right thing for the right reasons. This is a book for your family, your friends, and for your partner as you curl up together and take an inspiring trip through stories which will jog fond memories of those in your life who have meant so much to you, and inspire you to create those same memories for those you care for and encounter everyday.
Rating: Summary: The Lives and Legacies of Everyday Heroes Review: This book is a celebration of the inherent goodness of the human spirit. It is a reminder that heroes walk quietly among us and is a testimonial to the strength of character that impacts lives. While reading this book, I was reminded not only of all the Everyday Heroes that helped shape my own life, but that the the choices we make become a reflection of our moral responsibilites to those around us. Great book!
Rating: Summary: Character Counts Review: This little book is a huge inspiration to anyone who is trying to live as a person of integrity in all of their everyday roles and responsibilities. Dr. Britzman's introduction and conclusion provide the moral framework for the reader to understand and apply moral judgements in today's world. Each contributor has provided a vivid portrait of a person who could be the person next door, quietly living their life and making a difference not on a national stage but where it really counts: in the lives of children, family, co-workers and employees. They show that, indeed, Character Counts! I reccomend the use of this book as a study/discussion guide for adults or teens, for a peek into the most important moral movement the last half century or even as part of a daily devition.
