My Review: I wasn't quite sure what to expect from this book but it was great. I loved the short sentimental story at the beginning about receiving that meaningful note. Then the book goes into how to make that same impact on others and how to go about sending your own notes. I have really enjoyed writing letters in the past few years but have fallen off the past few months and this is a real motivator to get going again. You can read just the story or you can read the whole book, or you can even take it a step further and get involved or send messages of your own gratitude or love.
