Chicken Soup for the Mother's Soul

This book was advertised as NEW but when it arrived, it had several pages missing and numerous paragraphs clipped out of other pages. NOT GOOD.

Heartwarming

These stories will touch your heart. I laughed and I cried throughout this book. I absolutely love the Chicken Soup collection. Each book never fails to provide wonderful stories. Appreciate being a mother when you read these stories... be glad you don't have all the tribulations. Or, be comforted in knowing you are not the only one in your situation.

If you've ever been a mother or a daughter this book is definately for you. The stories will make you laugh and cry and, best of all, you'll recognize yourself in many of the pages.
This book is one of my favorites. It's a real treasure. Five stars! Debbie Farmer, parenting author of 'Don't Put Lipstick on the Cat'

A must read for all women

I received my first Chicken Soup book from my father six years back and since then there has been no stopping. I continue to be a voracious reader of these lovely series. I have recommended them to many of my friends too.

Chicken Soup for the Mother's Soul is one book which I feel all women must read irrespective of whether they have arrived at the threshold of motherhood or not. Heart-warming stories, personal experiences, and moving tales comprise this book, which will on more than one occassion make you grab a tissue and wipe your moist eyes. The illustrations in this book are hilarious too. As you read this book, you shall reflect upon the happiness and pain of your own relationship with your mother. One of the finest and sweetest books you can gift to your near and dear ones. They will always thank you for this book.

I shall take the liberty of quoting one of the proverbs in this book.
"God cannot be everywhere so He made mothers."

There...I rest my case. Nothing further needs to be said in honor of this exquisite book.

This Book is an Emotional Rollercoaster 2008-04-26
I was given this book as a gift from my son. I read it on an airplane and laughed and cried so much that at the end of the flight, the man sitting next to me said, "you are quite an emotional lady!" I bought a copy of this book for the lady that helped me when I got stranded when the flight was delayed a day. She read one of the stories in it while I was changing clothes and I found her in tears when I returned. It's a great feel-good book.

A Great Addition to the Series 2008-01-28
In this collection of stories from and about mothers, there is something for everyone. Whether you need to be inspired, comforted, or amused, whether if you are looking for a laugh or a cry you can find a story for your mood. The Chicken Soup authors always know how to pick a collection of stories that truly brings the subject to light, a tear to your eye, and a smile to your lips! This time, what a worthy topic: mothers. As a positive psychologist in private practice I certainly know the powerful and permanent importance of our mothers in all of our lives!

real page turner 2007-10-26
I CAN NOT PUT THIS BOOK DOWN! Some real tear jerkers too. A must for all moms.

nice book 2006-01-10
my family got this as a gift about 8 years ago. I don't remember much about it but I remember the stories about the mother losing her son during a skiing accident, the girl who bought her mom bobby pins for her birthday and the story where they're celebrating a grandmother's birthday and she dies at the end of the party after seeing her entire family at the celebration.
