You'll find yourself another lucky one after you read it

I don't read much books but this one is the best that I have ever read.You shouldn't miss this book as it will bring you hope and strength to fight for the misfortune. Quote from Lucy, ¡§Ah Wor gave her life to me will help you cope with areas in your life, no matter what difficulties you encounter. The opportunity to make the best of things is held out if we will work hard for it.¡¨ So friends, don't give up and live richer.

The personal story of a wonderful person

I met Lucy when I was 4 years old in a Vons supermarket. It was not until I was nearly 14 years old that I read Lucy's book and have to say that it made our friendship even more special. There is nothing quite like this book to give one perspective upon life that we might readily ignore in the busy stream of life. I treasure my copy of this masterpiece

Must read when pessimistic or depressed

Most certainly the best to show what can happen if all the odds are stacked against you and your luck has run out as well. Hats off to loyal people surrounding Lucy for their continued support. I have lent my copy to many friends and guard my ownership - pity it is out of print should not be at all.

Read to know more of the ones whom you thought were unlucky.

One of the lucky ones by Lucy Ching is an astonishing book that reveals the long-disregarded mind of the blind. It tells us how the group that appears to have no expressions can love, like and hate the rest of the world, especially the Chinese world she was brought up in which had always considered them as signs of bad luck. A must-read to inspire our consideration and love towards the blind by Lucy's touching survival from being an unfortunate to one of the lucky ones.
