This is probably one of the better Chicken Soup for the Soul books that I have read. The book is shorter, partially because it does not include information about the authors of each story, and does not have as many stories as the traditional Chicken Soup books. The authors chose stories from some of the previous books and it seems like they picked some of the better, more meaning-filled stories. I'm glad I read this one...I think I still have another Chicken Soup book on my shelf that was given to me...

Kind of disappointed this was only an excerpt of the original book. Of course all the stories were inspirational, but not sure if this is something I would read again.

A collection of stories from the other books, I didn't notice any new stories, though I might have missed one. While uplifting, a bit of a disappointment due to the lack of new material.
