Customer Reviews

A book by an author who has a gift of touching the heart.

My first encounter with this book was when a friend came to see me when I was down with back problems. She read me 3 of the short stories. It was a wonderful time of reflection and gaining a new perspective on life. Arthur Gordan has a wonderful gift of painting word pictures in your mind. I am so pleased with this book that I have ordered two more copies for friends.

A Gift Which Keeps Giving

I read this book years ago and have re-read it many times since. Each time I gain a new insight. I have given this book as a gift to many people. We now share insights over and over again! No matter if you are feeling down or up about life, this book helps! READ IT, LIVE IT ....

The most uplifting book I know of

I had to read this book for an Interpersonal Relations class in college. It is now one of my favorite books of all time. I read it everytime I feel down or need some inspiration. It is a wonderful book to give as a gift. I would recommend this book to everyone.

The book I love most.

Of all the books that I have read (some 80,000 titles), Touch of Wonder is the one that I love most (besides the Bible, of course). It inspires me, encourages me, affirms me, and carries me through difficulties in life. I have given many copies to friends and associates. This one will bring personal joy and amazement to friends as a gift item. I particularly like the chapter on the spiral ladder in Santa Fe and the midnight sky full of comets. Put it next to your pillow as a close friend.
