A collection of 101 short essays and tributes to unsung heroes,
recognizing and expressing appreciation for the hidden "gifts" that
life's journey brings. Excellent for use as gifts and premiums, as
well as for personal enrichment and enjoyment. John Wayne "Jack"
Schlatter, author of some of the most beloved stories in the
"Chicken Soup for the Soul" series, now comes forth with his own
collection of inspirational writings. Sharing lessons, insights,
and humor gathered over 35 years in the classroom and as a member
of one of the most amazing families in America, he will touch your
heart, tickle your funny bone, and enrich your wisdom. Three of his
stories in particular have had a tremendous impact on the American
culture. "I Am a Teacher" is one of the most widely read and
reprinted tributes of the last ten years. "The Simple Gesture" has
been known to save lives and form new friendships and has been
rewritten and retold throughout the nation. "The Magic Pebbles"
received a great compliment from Jack Canfield, coauthor of the
"Chicken Soup" series. Asked by Modern Woodman magazine to choose
the single story which meant the most to him, he named "The Magic
Pebbles." Inspired by Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen, whose dreams
"woke him up," Mr. Schlatter has become aware of the countless
gifts left by the side of the road of life. In this book he shares
his discoveries. "Jack Schlatter is a charismatic, consummate
communicator who will have you laughing through your tears as he
squeezes your heart with timeless truths." - MARK VICTOR HANSEN,
Co-Author of "Chicken Soup for the Soul" series. "Do not pass up
the opportunity to be entertained and inspired by this amazing
human being." - JACK CANFIELD, Co-Author of "Chicken Soup for the
Soul" series. "Every person should have a copy of this book on
their bedside table for a last thought at night or a first thought
in the morning. I would have loved this book if I had never met the
author, but I have had the immense pleasure of watching Jack give a
gift to every person he comes in contact with. He has the
sensitivity to help each person he meets to get in touch with their
"Real Self" the true person inside, even if it is just for a
moment. It is his unconditional love for each and every person he
has the blessing to come into contact with that allows those people
to also see and feel themselves as Jack sees them, as a beautiful
creation, worthy of the best that this world has to offer, to be
acknowledged for who they really are. I have seen the light come to
their eyes. Jack is at his best with young people; just a touch of
Jack goes a long way in helping them know their real value. I think
Jack's greatest gift is his ability to see beyond exterior behavior
to the pure essence of everyone he comes in contact with, and more
so helps them to see it also. His gift for putting in words what
most of us only feel when we are in our deepest self is one of the
most amazing talents I have witnessed. It has been one of the great
pleasures in my life to have known him personally and through his
works, and I would want to share that experience with as many
people as possible." - Ann Friedly
