An oldie but goodie, and as a Kindergarten teacher, a very encouraging read. In these strange days of humans demonstrating the weirdest of behaviors, it is nice to read something so simple that it is beyond wise. There was a time that this poem was everywhere. Perhaps it is time to revisit it.
This book goes beyond the famous poem, with vignettes that can reach every age and every status level. A bunch of simple stories that teach wisely, it is hard to put down. As an oldster, I hope that this type of wisdom is still sought. I hope that these truths are not just lost.

I read this 30 years ago. I read it again and it held up as a quaint, comfy reflection of a simpler time.

Very honest and human reflections on the ways that we all touch each other's lives. Corny at times, but in a way I always find earnest and charming.
