A Great Book for All Ages,
By
This review is from: The Dragon Slayer With a Heavy Heart: A Powerful Story About Finding Happiness and Serenity...Even When You Really, Really Wish Some Things Were Different (Paperback)
As a psychotherapist I have found this to be a wonderful resource for clients. It is the best all-around book for the majority of my clients to aid them in feeling better and correcting irrational thoughts. It's fun, interesting, and makes some great points. Even my 13 year-old son read it and daily uses it's ideas to improve his view of the world and himself. A MUST for everyone interested in improving the quality of their life.

The Dragon Slayer Lightened My Heart,
This review is from: The Dragon Slayer With a Heavy Heart: A Powerful Story About Finding Happiness and Serenity...Even When You Really, Really Wish Some Things Were Different (Paperback)
I read the Dragon Slayer With A Heavy Heart and felt better.
Previously I didn't even know that my problem was a heavy heart, once I identified with the characters in the book it was obvious. Then I got the tools to start the process of healing my heart which was not in good shape after losing my soul-mate wife of 20 years. It showed me pain is inevitable but doesn't need to last forever. Thanks Reese Jones

A Short Book with a Powerful Message,
By James R. Lane (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Dragon Slayer With a Heavy Heart: A Powerful Story About Finding Happiness and Serenity...Even When You Really, Really Wish Some Things Were Different (Paperback)
The old adage that a picture is worth a thousand words could be applied here. Marcia Powers has the magical ability to create powerful images that guide us through some of mankind's most difficult issues - finding out who we are and where we "fit" in society. I heartily recommend this book to each and every one of my friends as the perfect gift to give to themselves. Each of us at some time in our life struggles with our "identity" and our real "self." This book is a marvelous way to work through those issues with the very real chance that "happiness and serenity" are awaiting you at the end of the book. How could you not invest in that kind of opportunity?

Help doesn't have to be 600 pages long!,
By Quantos (Ohio) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Dragon Slayer With a Heavy Heart: A Powerful Story About Finding Happiness and Serenity...Even When You Really, Really Wish Some Things Were Different (Paperback)
This book was a great story. Sometimes less is more. The book was entertaining in its brevity but packed a heavy punch. There are too many of us that carry heavy hearts. This was a real inspiration to me. Some of the lessons seem so simple but sometimes it's those things that confuse us the most. I think that if we can all apply the valuable lessons of this book, we'd all be better. I highly recommend this publication.

The Dragon Slayer with a Heavy Heart,
By T. Rix (Ft Worth, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Dragon Slayer With a Heavy Heart: A Powerful Story About Finding Happiness and Serenity...Even When You Really, Really Wish Some Things Were Different (Paperback)
This book made a tremendous impact on my life. For anyone that worries about things they are unsure of, you don't realize how much it is weighing you down. After I read this book, I realized that I can't change other people, only myself, and worrying about things that are out of my control was only hurting me. I have read this book twice in two weeks. It's absolutely the best book I have ever read.

This review is from: The Dragon Slayer With a Heavy Heart: A Powerful Story About Finding Happiness and Serenity...Even When You Really, Really Wish Some Things Were Different (Paperback)
We ordered this book online based on the reviews. I am part of a 20 person book club. We all enjoyed the book. We were not sure what to make of it at first, but after reading on, you get the message. The author found a humorous and colorful way of dealing with some tough life issues. Would recommend this book to anyone to read - just hard to explain the book and the title when someone asks what you're reading!
Great read and would make a great animated story.

All Sons must read this before launching,

This review is from: The Dragon Slayer With a Heavy Heart: A Powerful Story About Finding Happiness and Serenity...Even When You Really, Really Wish Some Things Were Different (Paperback)
I read this because it was included at the end of Napoleon Hill's THINK AND GROW RICH.What a GEM! I then sent it to my "adult" son who is away at college in his second year. He actually read it, liked it and changed majors to follow his heart. I wish him the best of luck and am glad he found his way.

I loved this little book!
When I purchased it, I thought it would be a gift for a young person on my shopping list, but I kept it. Along with God on a Harley, it's among my favorite inspirational reads. They stay on my bookshelf so I can turn to them if I have a heavy heart. In my opinion, it's suitable for all ages.
