Chicken Soup for the Soul

Chicken Soup for the Soul is the first in a series of books by Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen. Each of them have 101 short stories, most true, that are incredibly touching, moving, and funny. They’re about people, real people, who face the worst and the best of life. I recommend these books. Not all of the stories touch me, but many, many, many of them do. When I needed to cry but couldn’t find it in me to do it, these books helped. When I needed to laugh, these books made me do it. When I needed a bit of inspiration, these books provided it. When I needed to feel and take my mind off myself and put it onto something, anything else to gain a little time and a little perspective, these books helped. There are 6 core, generic books, and plenty of specialty books – for women, for teens, for mothers, for sisters, for country lovers, for golfers, for senior citizens, and much more. Try them out. You won’t be sorry.
