Loved this edition of Chicken Soup for the Soul. The short story format was perfect for a few minutes of reading before bed or before starting my day. It was a daily reminder of all the things I have to be grateful for, as well as an inspiration about different ways I might celebrate or honor those gifts.

Inspiring short stories about gratitude. I used it as a chapter book with my 4 year old daughter, encouraging her to acknowledge all the things she has to be grateful for every day.

This book really challenged me and made me realize that I need to be more thankful. God has been so good to me and has blessed me in so many way. I have considered myself to be a thankful person, but when times are harder, I need to be even more thankful. No matter what happens, God is still good and He is still worthy of praise. I am mostly thankful for Jesus. This was a great book to read around Thanksgiving.

Excellent, Must Read!

This is my first time reading the Chicken Soup Series and I must say I couldn't have picked a better book. It's amazing how one word, (nine letters), can make you experience a wide range of emotions. I learned so much about myself as I read others stories. Cannot wait to select another book to get started on.
