A Day Brightener!

Okay, most days I can come up with three, maybe four! I was surprised to pick up this book, start reading for a minute, and then find myself completely enthralled. Positive, upbeat, encouraging --- but without being unrealistic or trite. This book is changing my attitude --- for the better! Barbara Sheldon, M.S.W.
