Part inspirational, part how-to, The Art of Thank You shows how to write well-crafted notes of gratitude for all occasions. Readers learn when, and when not, to send a card, whether an email thank-you is ever appropriate, and how to get children to write thank-you notes.

Through examples and anecdotes, and thank-you notes written by celebrities, famous authors, and historical figures, the author shows how a note of appreciation is as beneficial for the writer as it is for the recipient.

The Art of Thank You will motivate you—or perhaps someone you know who could use a little encouragement—to pick up a pen and take the time to express gratitude.
