What on Earth Have I Done? by Robert Fulghum

What On Earth Have I Done?https://valcat.vlc.lib.mi.us/ipac20/ipac.jsp?session=12Y58495417EE.12579&profile=sge&uri=link=3100007~!1257382~!3 by Robert Fulghum, revivewed byPaul Lutenske, Branch Head, Butman-Fish Library
(St. Martin’s, 2007, $22.95, 320 pp.)

Fulghum, who first achieved fame with his best-selling All I Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten, offers an enjoyable collection of brief stories, observations and affirmations, all gently pondering the meaning of life. This is a collection of small gems. Fulghum writes with poignancy and humor about the local, the daily, and the ordinary things that can transform life. Moon rises, new brooms, and wonderful stories from his second home in Crete make you wish that you could spend a pleasant summer’s evening just talking with him.
