Review\n"These are wise tales of humanity and our deep need to find it. Don Tassone writes with a big heart and delivers messages that heal. Everyone should read this collection." 
— Paul Daugherty, author of An Uncomplicated Life\n"Don Tassone has a gift. He takes simple life experiences and replays them in three dimensions with color, purpose and meaning. This collection of some of his best stories places you in situations that may be scary, loving, lonely or just plain heartwarming. Wherever they take you, some will nudge you into another way of seeing the commonplace, while others deliver the unexpected. Collected Stories in a great, easy read that will get you hooked on taking sips of life re-examined in a unique style and with a bit of wonder." 
— Kathy Toerner Kennedy, author of Flood of Courage and Aftershock\n"Collected Stories takes the reader on a ride through our purest and most natural emotions. Each story is an invitation to think deeply about situations that may seem mundane but actually hold a special and significant place in our journeys. No matter how short the story in this book, it will remind you of what's truly important." 
— Ann Tassone Poirier, Wonderland Mommy blog\n"Collected Stories reveals the author's ability to give copious details without overkill. First, he paints his word pictures with a broad brush. Then, like an Old Master creating a work of art, he uses his fine-tipped brush, filling in the small spaces with color, passion and authenticity. Tassone nails details like John Isner serves aces." 
— Dee Lorraine, Midwest Book Review\nThis special collection features 50 of Don Tassone’s best short stories. The author has dedicated this book to his granddaughter Alice, who has Down syndrome. He is giving the proceeds to the National Down Syndrome Society.\nFrom the Author\nWhen a writing friend suggested putting this story collection together, I was initially hesitant, in part because "Collected Stories by Don Tassone" sounds like I'm dead.\nBut then one day I was with my beautiful goddaughter Alice. She is one of my nine wonderful grandchildren. Alice is four years old. She has Down syndrome. When I look at Alice, I am reminded of why I write. I write as an invitation to appreciate life more deeply. Alice helps me appreciate life more deeply.\nI am dedicating this book to Alice and giving the proceeds to the National Down Syndrome Society, the leading human rights organization for those who, like Alice, have been given an extra chromosome.
