5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful affirmations with glorious artwork, May 21, 2000
By A Customer
Taken together, Claudia Black's meditations and Laurie Zagon's artwork are beautiful, affirming, and therapeutic. Black's words are deceptively simple, and can be returned to again and again for reassurance and comfort, and Zagon's drawings are exquisite. A wonderful gift for anyone working through childhood issues.

5.0 out of 5 stars I am good enough, March 4, 2005
I love this book, and I have given it to so many friends who love it, too. I have memorized many of the affirmations, and they will be with me forever. The artwork is beautiful. Of course there will always be someone who doesn't agree. Depends on if you are "touch feely" or an "intellect". Just enjoy.
