"I appreciated the life lessons Robert Fulghum thoughtfully reminds himself to hold dear. His sense of humor about dealing with our path through life is charming and unpretentious. It was a joy to revisit what one easily forgets while living the day to day. Thanks, I needed this!"

    " I remember feeling stupid for liking this book when I read it but enjoyed it just the same. My oldest daughter was in Kindergarten at the time so I had a front row seat. I've never been an Idealist and it was hard for me to give up and just let go. I'm glad I did "

    " I expected that this book would be a collection of witty little quotes, but that is not the case. This book is full of many short stories with well crafted turns that either makes you reflect or laugh or both at the same time. Each story is to the point and that is refreshing. "

    " I found it entertaining. Mr. Fulghum is a preacher of some kind, so I wpuldn't mind listening to one of his sermons. He seems at least a bit misogynistic, but it's not overwhelming. I'd recommend it to a friend, but I wouldn't mind if they borrowed it for a long while. "
