Chicken Soup for the Soul: Tough Times, Tough People (Chicken Soup for the Soul Publishing, LLC, June 2009, 978-1-935096-35-1, $14.95) reminds us that tough times won’t last, but tough people will. Tough People is all about overcoming adversity, pulling together, making do with less, facing challenges, and finding new joys in a simpler life. This new collection shares tales of people who have been laid off, lost their homes, and endured wrenching life changes, but discovered the underlying gifts in their new situations. More time at home with family, creative “staycations,” more satisfying job opportunities, and renewed gratitude for health and life are just a few of the silver linings these survivors have learned to cherish.
I enjoyed reading some of these stories of people overcoming economic crisis because right now there are a whole bunch of families out there right now who are struggling and need hope! This book includes 101 stories about overcoming challenges and 10 bonus stories of faith.
Chicken Soup for the Soul: Tough Times, Tough People should give you hope, inspire you, and help you with facing the challenges of life.

I’d love to have this to give to my mom. She recently gained custody of my sisters 3 boys ages 7, 10 and 11. She’s a full time nurse in a neonatal ICU and losing time at work to care for my nephews. As well as my dad just having to take another 10% pay cut and his retirement pushed back 2 years. She loves The Chicken Soup for the Soul series and I know she could really use this. Thanks for the chance!
