The Right Words at the Right Time: Volume 2 by Marlo Thomas and New Friends is a collection of short essays submitted by “regular people.” Although these people are not celebrities, like in Volume One, they each have a special story to tell of a time where someone spoke the right words to them at the right time.
I’ve always liked books like these, full of short inspirational stories. There are 101 stories from all people of all walks of life, so it was easy to find stories that touched me in some way. I found myself saying, “Just one more..Just one more story” until I realized I had read the whole book. The collection of stories is inspiring, but very rarely ventures into “cheesy” stories where everything is sunshine and roses.
Even better, all royalties from the sale of this book will be contributed to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which is an organization that I frequently donate money to.
Get this book, read it, then pass it on to someone who could use a little inspiration in their lives.
