Customer Reviews

Wonderful reading

I picked up "Chicken Soup for the Father's Soul" in an airport bookshop as I departed for a four-day business trip. At the time I traveled very frequently, and I had planned to read a story only occasionally, saving them for those times when my thoughts wandered upon my two sons at home and refused to be redirected elsewhere. However, I found myself reading story after story, and by the time I had returned home, I had finished the book and was giving some of the stories a second read.In the enclosed quarters of an airplane cabin, I found myself unsuccessfully struggling to contain my laughter, nonchalantly wiping tears from my eyes, and silently reflecting upon my own relationships as father and son.Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy sometime. These stories will move you.tpmJuly 10, 2002

An Excited Dad to Be

As a father to be (for the first time!) I am a little apprehensive and curious and scared and elated and ... at the thought of being a FATHER! This book was the best gift anybody could have ever given me! It made me laugh at my silly inhibitions and help me to realize that I am about to receive the greatest gift ever, our baby daughter, and the best gift I could ever give her was to be a great Dad!
