Enchanting Poetry Collection Illuminates the Importance of Saying "Thank You"

Makawao, HI (PRWEB) May 8, 2008 -- The Miracle of a Thank You by Cheri Staub is an insightful and inspirational book of poems that examines how gratitude can positively impact people's lives.

Can two little words wield enough power to change the world? When those words are "thank you," then the answer is yes, says poet Staub in her extraordinary collection, The Miracle of a Thank You. Expressing gratitude, suggests the author, can chase the clouds away and give people strength to hold their heads up high. Thankfulness, Staub asserts, can also bring people closer together, smooth out differences, and open hearts to healings, blessings and God.

This gorgeously written collection of poems includes more than 101 ways to say thank you in over 200 different languages. Filled with from-the-heart sentiments to soothe and inspire, The Miracle of a Thank You is a wonderful collection to give or to get--or to tuck in a pocket whenever readers need a lift. Grateful readers may even want to express their own gratitude to the author for a classic volume they will treasure for years.

For more information or to request a free review copy, members of the press can contact the author at cheristaub@clearwire.net. The Miracle of a Thank You is available for sale online at Amazon.com, BookSurge.com, and through additional wholesale and retail channels worldwide.
