Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
If you're looking for inspiration and comfort, then A 3rd Helping of Chicken Soup for the Soul may be the book for you. It's a collection of stories and anecdotes about people triumphing over adversity, of finding a ray of light even in the deepest darkness, of acts of kindness being their own reward, and so on.
The Chicken Soup series of books aims "to inspire and motivate you to love unconditionally, live more passionately and pursue your heartfelt dreams with more conviction." This volume contains "101 more stories to open the heart and rekindle the spirit," divided into sections such as Love, Parenting, Teaching and Learning, and Death and Dying. Many of them include insights that adults can learn from their children, who see the world from a different perspective to us, who haven't yet learnt to be cynical or to expect the worst.
Two warnings: first, this is a very American book, in both its content and its feel; British readers may find it just a little too much "Mom's apple pie". Second, it's not a book to be read right through, but a book to dip into, perhaps when you're feeling low, or need a touch of inspiration to boost you. It could also be useful to preachers and others who have a use for heart-warming anecdotes. --David V Barrett --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

All of the books in the "Chicken Soup For The Soul" series are incredible. They are unlike any other book you may read. The true stories of people who have over come great odds, or have shown true courage and strength, will inspire you to improve your own life. The stories are short and easy to read. They are all touching, and will stir your emotions. They make an excellent gift to someone you love (grandparents especially!). Mark Victor Hansen and Jack Canfield also do speaking tours, and I would highly recommend going to see them if you get the opportunity. These books WILL change the way you look at the world, and give you a warm, fuzzy feeling inside at the same time.

I got this book as a birthday present for my brother (he's already got the first 2 helpings) and it has absolutely amazing stories in there. I'm not usually a fan of short stories but these little stories really open your mind to what is possible and they really grip you. One of the stories I was in tears after, they're just so amazing. Really good for just flicking through as well if you need a bit of inspiration or if you're feeling down or if you're just bored. Really great book, I recommend it to everyone, makes a brilliant gift as well.
