Think of Deb Koffman as a guru with a great sense of humor. She's deep, she's funny, she's inspiring. Deb gets her point across fast through bold, colorful cartoons, each accompanied by just a single line of text. Every spread is a mini-meditation, visually exploring common words of wisdom such as, There's always another way, Follow your intuition, and Seek new perspectives. Deb's fresh insights into these concepts are sure to make you smile and say, Oh, yes, I've been there. Deb wasn't trained as an artist or a writer, but you'd never know it by looking at her cartoons.

Some early readers have described The Soul Support Book as a contemporary survival guide. That strikes us as right on the money: Deb's observations are wise and witty, encouraging and reassuring, and so darn true you'll wonderwhy you didn't think of them yourself.
