From the moment i read the first story in this book, i was taken aback by its enlightening stories and humoristic style. Nickless takes the Chicken Soup series a step further with stories that not only teach, but also have the uncanny ability to make fun of the trials of being a mom of a little one. Any mother of a preschooler who reads this book will know she is not alone in her journey; and will even find herself having a giggle at her mommyhood struggles.

Very touching, humorous and relatable stories, that take a precious hold of your heart until the very last story!
They renew your faith in childhood innocence and remind you of all the reasons why you wanted to be a mom in the first place. Lifts the weakened spirit to new heights, while imparting you with smiles that show on your face and take root in your soul. An absolute must for preschool mothers, and even grandmothers of preschoolers! Enjoy the wit, tears and laughter of these wonderfully endearing stories. Don't pass this one by!!

This is one of the best of the Chicken Soup series. I highly recommend it!

Bought this book for my daughter who has two preschoolers and sometimes wonders if she will make it through the day. With the short-story format she can read as much or as little as time (or sleep) allows. It is an encouraging book for Moms and lets them know that they are not alone in this business of child rearing. Other Moms face the same trials and joys and yes, you will survive.

There is no doubt that Chicken Soup books were written with busy moms in mind. Offering small doses of inspiration, hope and simple smiles, Maria Nickless never fails to reach editorial perfection - but this one is a masterpiece.

If you are a mother of young children, don't miss these comforting confessions from mothers just like you who love, laugh, flounder and forge ahead through the fabulous journey of motherhood.

As a Mom of a preschooler (and three others under 10 years), I generally don't have time to myself, much less sit and read. This book caught my eye though - filled with short stories that I can relate to. I find myself picking it up in between laundry or lunch and reading one or two stories at a time - at the end, smiling because I've been there or learned something new! I think any Mom - currently with a preschooler or even an older child - would really enjoy taking a little time to read these stories - you (we as Mom's) deserve it! It's a great way to treat yourself!

Chicken Soup for the Mother of Preschooler's Soul is a testament to loving memories. Each story is told from the heart and transposes the reader into special moments of their own. Maria Nickless, along with Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen and Carol McAdoo Rehme pulls it together with finesse and class. You keep writing them...I'll keep reading them!

I absolutely loved this book. Such fond mememories of rearing my own daughters; and what a treasure in Casey Bright's view of life. I agree totally ... fish crackers for everyone every day. The years between fish crackers and wedding cakes are very short indeed, plus every little boy should have a mom they want to marry! Every mom and granny should run out and get "Chicken Soup Mother of Preschooler's Soul". A winner!

I thought from the discription (which was misleaing) that this was a book for mothers of pre-schoolers. This is actually a book, specifically for MOPS a christian group who go by the same name. Therefore the title is a misnomer. I have read 15 or 20 stories and ALL of them have been about God or refered to God and or "church". If you happen to be Christian, maybe this is good for you. But don't believe this is a book for ALL mothers of pre-schoolers, because it's not!
