Simple, a wee bit snarky, and profound. This is a quick read, summing up what you already know to be true about yourself and the universe. Funny and insightful. Definitely recommended.

Best self-help book I've ever seen. My mom purchased it for my brother a while back, and I picked it up for fun. Quirky, informative, and very colorful. It was inspiring and just plain fun to read. Unlike a lot of psychology books, it is easy to understand and quick to read, and it gives just as much information.
shallow content but beautiful page designs
Cute as a button, delightful, jazzing up life's veritable truths, loved it! Will it hit its target audience (whatever that is)?
This book is a brightly colored, busy reminder to focus your energy on positive things.
A fun and fabulous way to add chuckles to your day.
