5.0 out of 5 stars an incredibly useful and inspiring book, October 30, 2005

This review is from: The Power of Giving: Creating Abundance in Your Home, at Work, and in Your Community (Paperback)

I'm not used to doing book reviews but I had to write one about this great book on giving. When I think of giving it's always meant: money. But this book opened my eyes to the many ways we can all give. It made me examine the times I've given and the times people have given to me and that was a personal eye-opener. I particularly liked the combination of stories, inspiration and practical ideas that I can apply to my life. There are some fine exercises to help you figure out your own giving priorites and a very nice section on teaching children to give. The book has a comprehensive look at giving that I think will benefit all readers because one of the book's themes is that giving benefits the giver as much as the recipients.

I got this book as a gift. And I can tell you I'm very grateful to my friend who gave me this inspiring present. In return my friend will get to share a very nice bottle of wine and a gourmet dinner with me. Thus proving to her, and me, that giving benfits everyone involved.

I loved this book!! It inspired and moved me and helped to channel my desire to give in practical and meaningful ways! It helped me to realize I don't have to give money alone -- giving more time to my family and the things I care for most, is an important act of giving. The book teaches how to help your children to learn to give. So many examples and great stories.. A pleasure to read, I'm buying copies to give as gifts - to friends, family, co-workers and clients. And the fact that authors are donating all the money from this book to charity makes me want to buy it even more!!
