Book Reviews of The Difference a Day Makes: 365 Ways to Change Your World in Just 24 Hours

Book Review: This book is a dream come true!
Summary: 5 Stars

Ah...the Difference a Book Makes!!! If you are finding yourself disheartened by the current state of world affairs, don't walk, don't run, but FLY to buy this book. "The Difference a Day Makes" absolutely blew me away -- and guided me to land in a place I had not yet known existed. A place where I could feel more helpful and less hopeless as a world citizen. A place where giving back is easy and simple, no matter what my resources look like. A place where it doesn't matter how or where I start to make a difference -- because in this book, all the "getting started" work was already done for me. This illuminating gem reads less like a book of resources and more like inspiring prose; the author's graceful, gentle voice did more than informed me -- it inspired me, to my very core. Thank you to Karen Jones for being a beacon for all of us who are ready to change OUR worlds by changing THE world.

Summary of The Difference a Day Makes: 365 Ways to Change Your World in Just 24 Hours

This timely compilation features 365 simple actions people can take to change the world, one day - or even five minutes - at a time. Each suggested action, in 16 "helping" categories, can be started and finished in a day or less, and none requires a cash donation. Readers may choose to accomplish a different altruistic step each day of the year, activate the same tool every day, or take actions that address a personally favored issue, such as animal welfare, or the pursuit of peace. Possibilities for compassionate service include acting as driver for a battered women's shelter, planting trees or a garden at a schoolyard, recycling running shoes into a playground surface, taking a day off from consumerism, aiding low-income students in finding grants and scholarships, helping unemployed workers put together resumes, and much more.
