Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It's a terrifically funny book .I recommend it to everybody.
Review: This book is pretty good, although it would most likely appeal to the more grown-up crowd and I am sure that most young people would like it too.The book is completely narrarated by the author. It is composed of little stories of things that have happened to him in his life.I would recommend it to everyone.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Well I liked it!
Review: I really enjoyed the book. It made me look at diffrent aspects of life in ways I never would have thought to. I recomend this book to anyone who wants an uplifting, realistic look on life!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Complex thoughts made Simple
Review: I am rather surprised at some of the views expressed by other fellow readers. The point they miss is that Mr. Fulghum communicates the complex in simple terms that most anybody can identify with or relate to. These poems are not the esoteric writings of the Bagavad Gita, the thoughts of St. Augustine, or the insights of Mamonadies. But they communicate very simply the things that people learned at one time, took for granted, then lost somehow... and I for one enjoyed becoming reaquainted with these ideas.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Very dumb.
Review: Sheep would be insulted by this stupidity.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: About as insightful as "Must see TV"
Review: Poorly developed ideas, shamelessly ripped-off from real religions. Each "Uncommon thought" is really a little less than a page long. The editors just use half page blank spaces to make them appear longer. The book is probably only about 10 pages long! If you really want some life changing philosophies, try something along the lines of Buddhism, which reflect actual thought. Fulghum was quite correct in stating that all he needed to know he learned in kindergarten. From his writing I would wonder if he made it past 3rd grade. How about the descriptions of the 500 hundred uses of a dandelion!? Did it throw you straight into enlightenment as well? A real waste.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Developmentally challenged.
Review: Pulleese,

Fortunately, many of us have continued to mature beyond the simple truths of a kindergartener. I've read better columns in Reader's Digest while in the W.C.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Uncle I Never Met
Review: Robert Fulghum feels like family. This book cheers me up when I am blue... brings me back to earth when I am off in space. It makes me cry and laugh at the same time. I own several of his books and have many of the stories memorized. I never tire of reading the books. This particular book started my collection (as it started Mr. Fulghum's)... and is probably the most well-worn book I own.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Delighful Collection of Thoughts and Anecdotes
Review: Robert Fulghum has a gift for storytelling. His dry humor and great use of metaphor make this an enjoyable and inspiring book to read. Highly recommended for a bit of inspiration when necessary.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: principles of life made clear
Review: It is amazing that everything that we go on learning for the rest of our lives are actually based on what we learned in kindergarden. Actually throughout our education they are the same things, just said in fancier languages using fancy tools throughout our lives. The book shows us the importance of kindergarden and the values in life.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: INSPIRATIONAL!!!!
Review: This book was the reason I decided to become a teacher. We lose something when we become adults. Robert Fulghum still has that "something" and he shares it with his readers. His stories are optimistic but realistic, touching but true. It made me laugh, cry, and think. Fulghum is SO insightful, but in a down to earth every-day-kind-of-guy way. Where ever you are Robert Fulghum, thank you, from the bottom of my heart. You have a unique gift; I'm so glad you shared it with me!
