Chicken Soup for the Golden Soul: Heartwarming Stories for People 60 and Over

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Do you remember when the milkman delivered and TV was a test pattern and a snowy channel? When Fibber McGee and Molly captured your imagination on Monday-night radio and cars had rumble seats and running boards? Then you are a golden soul, someone rich with experience who can embrace life with more freedom and perspective than you ever had when you were younger.

Through touching, entertaining and inspiring stories, this latest Chicken Soup collection shares the stories of people sixty and over who are redefining the expression "better with age" by greeting life's joys and challenges with grace, vibrancy and a positive attitude. Chapters include: Staying Young at Heart, Living Your Dream, On Overcoming, Reminiscing, On Love, Sharing with Others and Ageless Wisdom.

Although especially written for those sixty and over, each story conveys timeless truths about how anyone can live with maximum meaning and enjoyment.
