Chicken Poop for the Soul: Stories to Harden the Heart and Dampen the Spirit

For those of you down in the dumps, this is a good book to look at and poke fun at yourself and your problems. I gave this as a tongue-in-cheek book, and the results were hilarious.

Now, here is something that truly made me laugh and feel good about things, as opposed to those wretched chicken soup books, filled with cancer, car accidents, and other such things that leave the reader feeling as though she should jump off an overpass onto the highway because she has not suffered as others. Seriously though, I'm not disparaging the Soup books. I'm just saying that this one made me laugh more and put me in a better mood than the other ones. And as for the reader who decided that this mocks the word of God, I'd like more information about the church whose gospel consists of an old, hand copied edition of Chicken Soup for the Soul...

I have just finished a four-week stay in the hospital after a disastrous accident. A friend brought me this book as my first get-well present. This book should be distributed at hospitals to all incoming patients. By the end of the week all the nurses wanted copies. Terminal patients roared with laughter as they and I recalled some of the wickeder stories. My cracked ribs hurt when I laughed but this book was better than painkillers. And I want to state that it is great for the morale--and certain other conditions one has in hospital. This book is better than flowers or candy! My mother was redfaced and in hysterics when reading the "True Meaning of Love" my personal fave along with the tale of the Dear Old Dad.Thank you thank you dear author, for offering an antidote to the sweetsie neatsie stuff that does no good at all when you are really ill...

This book is so funny and it was desperatly needed considering the avalanche of Chicken Soup books. Everybody I know laughed as soon as they saw and read the title. Buy this book!

this book is so twisted. it's way up there on my "books that rule" list. actually, it's the top book.
