By chance, I found this book in my local library, read it and had a life change. Today while looking up Nicholas Sparks I find that Wokini is in print once again. Life is good! This book will change your whole attitude and outlook on life. It begins by breaking down the old ideas (lies) about what happiness is and is not. It follows with a day by day path on how to achieve true happiness. A great book to give and to keep!

Great book. Straightens out your emotions when they have been twisted by social conditioning.

I love this book. It teaches great life lessons and great outlooks. I think it can be applied to many aspects of life. I studied Medical Anthropology and was fascinated with the Native American methods of living in way that prevents the need for most modern medicines. This book helps with the understanding of attitude and acceptance, and how that impacts your life.

I have read all of the books written by Nicholas Sparks, when I saw he had co-written Wokini with Bily Mills, I had to read it.

I have always been intriqued by Native American culture, this book is a wonderful read.
I would recomend it to anyone who is looking for meaning and guidance in their life. Approach it with an open mind and I beleive you will receive knowledge.
I didn't know what to expect from this book and as I read it I was continually drawn in by the authors style of the telling of his experience. I assume it is his experience because of the directness of the story being told. A wonderful book providing tools for anyone who wants to be happy in life and has the ears to hear. The beauty is in the basic approach of just being human and how we relate to the world around us. A spirit journey in the finest sense. I want to present gift copies to everyone I love; especially my kids.
