Book Description

May 1, 2001

A life well lived comes from listening to the advice of others. But with so many competing voices, where do you look? When a student wants to remember the most important parts of a text in school, he highlights them in yellow. Those highlighted words are the ones that must be reviewed carefully to understand the subject and pass the test.

H. Jackson Brown, Jr., with sales of more than 27 million books in the past decade, and Rochelle Pennington have highlighted the essential and best quotations and stories that point to an understanding of the elements that are key to a life well lived: kindness, attitude, generosity, character, simple pleasures, and dreams. From the wealth of their study comes a short course in living wisely and choosing well. Highlighted in Yellow offers inspiration for confronting issues that we all face daily.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highlights in Yellow, June 8, 2001
By 
Wendy Coulter (West Bend,, Wi. USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Highlighted In Yellow A Short Course In Living Wisely And Choosing Well (Paperback)
When the world is so busy and you don't even have time to think, you can go to this book, sit down, and relax and forget all of your worldly concerns. A lot of people in the world today have forgotten what is really important in our lives. When asked that questions all would reply that their family and friends are most important but too many other things always seem to get in their way. This book talks about all the important things in life and is a great book to read over and over. I've bought ten copies and are giving them away to my family, friends and customers. Hopefully, this book will touch many peoples lives and will make the world just a little better place to live. If you wnat your heart warmed and your soul cleansed get a copy of this awesome book today. You won't be disappointed. It should be on every home's coffee table. Can't wait for their next book to be published.

This review is from: Highlighted In Yellow A Short Course In Living Wisely And Choosing Well (Paperback)
I initially bought this book for a friend of mines who was about to attend university in the fall. However, I after reading several pages myself I found that I could hardly keep it down. It contains life changing short stories and quotes that are sure to make anyone cheerful.

I have now decided to buy a copy for myself.
