At first I thought this might be too simplistic a guide to social and personal notes, then I found myself getting choked up in the chapter on "Writing Notes for Difficult Moments." The author is straightforward, friendly, and sensible, and she blends sensitivity with emotion in just the right mix, facing illness, AIDS, cancer, and impending death with clarity and compassion. She also gives snappy suggestions for graduation, holiday, and congratulatory notes, and devotes additional attention to writing to children and teenagers. The book gives such heartfelt, meaningful examples of short notes that if you keep a copy on your writing desk you need never be at a loss for words again.
Notes galore!

Ideas for writing notes - and even letters, can be found in this wonderfully heart-warming book by Florence Isaacs. We are given suggestions on what to write for the Holidays, for cancer and AIDS patients and their families, for condelences, births, etc. Every possible social situation is covered, including all types of religious Holidays. The artwork was designed by Hallmark, the "card people". A very cosy book, just for those cold winter afternoons when you don't know what to say or write in your correspondence.
