Summary: Self Help
Review: I have several of the Chicken Soup books, I would love to have them all! I can sit for hours and read the short stories over and over. I've noticed that my pastor uses alot of them in his sermons also. It just warms my heart when I read the touching stories about struggles and triumphs in the lives of others. Some say that the series is depressing but I find that when I'm in a dark moment I can read or recall some of the stories I've read and I feel better. They just help shed new light on certain situations. Great gifts also. I've given them to friends and family members on different occasions. They loved them.

Summary: Wonderful display of love and everyday life......
Review: My beloved friend gave me this book for a gift. This is the most wonderful book I've read recently. It reminded me how we were when we were young and naive. If you are wondering what to get for friend who you love, this is it.

Summary: depressing stories, no redeeming qualities
Review: The theme of nearly all of the "stories" relvolve about death (someone else's) which leaves the survivor as the victor or sometimes just the survivor. Sounds like bad medicine to me. The smarmy introductions provided by Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen set the scene for real tear jerkers with no moral to the whole sad production. Don't waste your money and postage on this. I'm requesting a refund. Alex Ryan
