I'm the mother of a two year old boy. I bought this book to read about other peoples relationships with their sons. I can relate to some and hope to relate to some later in our lives. The bond between us is so strong and its great to see others have that special bond too. Definitely a great book for all! It made me cry, smile and laugh pretty hard.

Every mother likes stuff like this so it was particularly meaningful. Everyone needs a little sentimentality in their life. Memories should be visited often.

I have read many of the chicken soup for the soul books and I like them all. This one is especially meaningful for me. I have four kids but only one son. My son was born three weeks early. His father was so excited to have a boy after three girls. The day I came home from the hospital I went to put my son to bed and came back to the living room to find my husband had collapsed. I called for an ambulance and it turned out that my husband had an aneurysm. They did tests and were able to find out exactly where it was and attempted surgery. Unfortunately it was not successful and he died a few weeks later. I did not want to be pessimistic when he went in the hospital but I knew he would not come out of the hospital. I believe my son was born early for a reason and that reason was so his father could know that he had a son. That is another reason my son is so special to me. This book had many stories I could identify with. If you are a mother with a son or sons I highly recommend reading this book.

"Chicken Soup for the Mother and Son Soul" will capture the heart of any woman who has a son. The lump in my throat stayed the size of a basketball throughout my reading this moving collection of Mother and son tales. "Chicken Soup for the Soul" brings back page after page of tender, memorable moments we share only with our sons. This book makes an absolutely perfect gift, and is especially powerful for mothers who have all sons! I personally am published in this book, "My Sinking Heart" page 12, and I'm proud to be in company with hundreds of other sincere mothers telling truly heartfelt stories.Pork Chops and Applesauce: A Collection of Recipes and Reflections
