Summary: Gentle Help for People in Pain (and those who care for them)
Review: I have been a big fan of the Chicken Soup for the Soul books since the first book in the series was published. Overall I have found the books to be both uplifting and helpful, and now that the books are published for specific audiences, I have found the books to be jammed packed with great stories. Many of the books do lift the human spirit and are quite useful to people in ministry, teachers, and other people in human service professions. I believe that this volume will be especially helpful to people who have to work with people who have experienced a loss or friends who are trying to comfort someone in pain. Judging from another reviewer, people experiencing loss have also found comfort with the stories in the book.I have not read the stories in this book while grieving the loss of a loved one. I have read the stories at moments when I have had to help grieving people. I have found that the stories give me a perspective that helps me reach out to those who are experiencing a loss. This is not a book that contains the "right thing to say." More often than not, presence speaks louder than words, and the stories can help us be present to people who are experiencing a loss.

Summary: inspiring and uplifting stories
Review: I love this series of uplifting stories, which encourage us to transcend our narrow vision and touch our common humanity and inner resilience. I would also strongly recommend Emerson Lee's Time-Honored Wisdoms On Wealth creation, which contains many illuminating stories which will encourage and uplift us to discover and unleash our immense inner potential.

Summary: ..Soup for the Soul
Review: I recently lost my beloved father following a lengthy illness and numerous hospitalizations. His death, though expected, was very devastating---and has bruised my heart. I bought "Chicken Soup for the Grieving Soul" last week, and read several of the stories daily. Each and every one has given my heart a boost!! Reading the sincere stories of others' losses and how each is dealing with their own grief is helping me through my own grieving process. A wonderful source of inspiration and healing!!

Summary: Chicken Soup
Review: Once again Canfield and Hansen have produced a thought provoking book. Death and loss is never an easy subject and anyone experiencing loss will see that they are not alone in their feelings.
I would also recommend the following items for those wishing to find comfort and a way to work through their grief.
1. Healing Stories of Grief and Faith, From Denial and Despair to Comfort and Peace
2. Write From Your Heart, A Healing Grief Journal
3. And for children a video, After the Tears, A Gentle Guide to Help Children Understand Death.
