A smile on every page - just what I needed!
If you're bored or sad or feeling lonely or just down, this is the perfect fix. With a cute animal photo and a brief sentence on every page, this book helps you see that everyone has bad days and that tomorrow promises wonderful new things. The black and white pictures are works of art and the captions match them perfectly. This book made me smile and laugh and cry. I received it as a gift from a good friend and I want to run out and buy copies for everyone I know who has ever felt down and out! A great gift idea!

Beautiful, Uplifting, Humorous
More than just another of those cute coffee-table books, Greive combines humor, sensitivity, and some very funny pictures into a masterpiece that not only holds your attention, but touches your heart and lifts your spirits.Most acclaimed self-help books either read like a prescription or are so full of inflated rhetoric and soaring prose that they lose themselves. Not so with this book. First, Greive doesn't presume to offer the reader a solution. Instead, he dishes out humorous doses of encouragement and insight. Second, this book is not a "3-Secrets-of-Delighted-People" methodology designed to numb you as an alternative to lifting your spirits. Instead, it provides a momentary escape and distraction by putting many of life's crises in a poignant, sometimes ludicrous, light that leaves you chuckling at your own circumstances.
Easy to read and hard to put down, you'll find yourself refreshed and encouraged every time you read it through...Gardner

Which comes first, a photo or a poem?
Or I would ask you which you prefer, reading a poem or looking at a photo. In this book, you'll find you can enjoy both of them very easily. You can hear sweet songs which are played in this book by both poems and photos. Actually I was so depressed when I got this book in my hands. I felt blue when I started looking into the bluish pages where I found funny looking animals with somewhat humanlike expression. Reading the sentences along these photos I felt somthing tickling inside myself. I felt like smiling. I couldn't help giggling. I felt so happy in the end. That's all I want to tell all of you who have some interest in this book. You must try it. Similar Products
