My Thoughts on Life Is Not a Candy Store by Tal Yanai

In his debut book, Life Is Not a Candy Store: It’s the Way to the Candy Store , Yanai encourages teens to become more aware of how their actions affects themselves and others. By exposing them to the simple truths of spirituality, and the beauty and love of a higher power, Yanai hopes readers will find new direction and purpose in a world filled with instant everything. After reading Life Is Not a Candy Store , Yanai has done what he has set out to do. I was impressed with how much of him shows through on the page. His book truly is a labor of love. I was lucky enough to stumble upon this gem of a book full of wisdom. Although the content is geared toward teenagers, it will equally appeal to adults. The combination of spoken truths and humor makes it easily accessible, and encourages readers to go back and reread. Anyone living by this philosophy can do no harm and will radiate the light of gentleness, kindness and peace. Life Is Not a Candy Store: It’s the Way to the Candy Store.
