Book Review & Giveaway Wednesday: Chicken Soup for the Soul New Moms

April 20, 2011 By Melanie Roberts

Chicken Soup for the Soul: New Moms: 101 Inspirational Stories of Joy, Love, and Wonder

Mother’s day is just a few short weeks away and I know this book said “New Moms”, I don’t think this book is just for new moms. I have been a mom for 15+ years now and I still enjoyed reading this book. Included in this new Chicken Soup for the Soul New Mom book are 101 Inspirational Stories of Joy, Love and wonder; this book is written by Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen and Susan M. Heim.

The thing I liked the most besides the heartwarming and joyful stories were the pictures, or should I say comic strips? When I had a rough day at home with the Tween, Teen or Toddler and really didn’t had the time to read an inspirational story to keep me going through the day, I loved to look at the pictures and I got a chuckle out of them and thanked enough energy to keep me going….

The stories in this book are honest and heartwarming true stories; anything you ever thought someone put down in writing and now you know you aren’t alone… I loved this book.

Here is some info from the back of the book:

Becoming a new mom is the most amazing event. This book celebrates the physical, emotional, and spiritual experience of having a child and creating a family. New and expectant moms will delight in these heartwarming, insightful, and humorous stories about raising babies and toddlers. This book is full of stories by other moms sharing the wonders of early motherhood, from waiting for the baby, whether through pregnancy, adoption, or surrogacy, to those early weeks and first few years, and everything in between!

I highly recommend this book to any new mom, to “old” mom’s and even grandmothers would get a good read out of this…. This isn’t just for New Moms. You can purchase your copy through Amazon.com or any of your favorite retailers and it retails for $14.95.

Chicken Soup for the Soul graciously offered 3( !!) 2Boys+1Girl=OneCrazyMom readers this book as a giveaway; just in time for Mother’s day. Check out my giveaway rules below and spread the news….
