I taught kindergarten for a decade and now those former students are graduating from college. I found this to be a meaningful & affordable gift. I inscribed a quote inside the cover before presentation.

Robert Fulghum has such a sense for capturing the essential human spirit, I believe that if people really listened to his stories the world would be a better place, with more of a sense of wonder and awe.

This essay puts into the simplest terms the rules which all should live by. If we stopped to think about it, we would all be happier if we just remembered the happiest times of our lives and thought about what made them such good times. This book makes us stop and think. A true lesson for all.
