Rendition During Books The One Good Thing

For as long as Halley Steen has known her husband Nathan, he has carried a handful of stones in his pocket. Each day he uses those stones to remind him to follow the Golden Rule, moving a stone from one pocket to the other with each act of kindness. So it's not unusual that Nathan stops to help a stranger on the side of the highway while on his way to his son's football game one Friday evening. But that one act will change all of their lives forever, when a car hydroplanes off the road, killing Nathan instantly.

As Halley and her children Ty and Alice struggle with their grief, Nathan's spiritual legacy lives on. A Facebook page appears, where countless stories about Nathan's selfless acts are shared. But among them is one that stands out, from a woman who says that Nathan saved her life. Neither Halley nor her children have ever heard of Madeline Zuckerman. But soon Halley discovers years of e-mails from this woman to her husband on his computer that refer to "our little girl." How could her husband have kept the secret of this other child for their entire marriage? Why had he lied to her? Was he not the man she thought he was?

Only thirteen-year-old Alice maintains unwavering faith in her father. She knows there's an explanation. When she sets out to find Madeline and learn the truth, she will start to unravel the complex story of The One Good Thing Nathan Steen did that had the greatest impact of all.

Evaluate Based On Books The One Good Thing

Everytime I pick up this book I have a hard time putting it down because it is soooo good. I read most of it staying up all night last night.. I will finish by the end of today. I highly recommend everyone read it. Very inspiring!! Reading most reviews, everyone gets the idea of doing good things, but this book says so much more... Like about bullying; don't judge others...and about forgiveness for yourself and others..about what love can do and loss of a loved one; of how every choice we make

I think that the book should be rated a 4/5 because it wasn't very interesting and it was a regular family story, before someone was happy, and then the main character died, so his secrets started spilling out and his whole family was trying to uncover his lie. When his daughter finds out about this, she doesn't believe her dad would do that to her family, she goes out to find out on her own. At the end, the main character was right and her family decided to carry out her fathers tradition, "One

Four and a half starsIm at the stage where I am sick to death of books peppered with bad language and unlikable characters. What I want to read are books with likable characters I can empathise with and a good story. One Good Thing was such a book. From the start I was hooked with the story of Nathan Steen, his six rocks he carried around in his pockets each day and learning what the secret he carried with him to death was.The story is told from several points of view, mostly from Halley, Nathan

This was an interesting book because I started out really liking the premise that a man was trying to do 6 good deeds everyday. I then hated it as we learned about his "past". I then loved it as the true story came out. A great story that is worth reading. This should be a challenge for all of us to do 7 good deeds everyday.

How do we treat others? Do we step out of our comfort zone to reach out? Do we actually live by the "Golden Rule" or is it just something we say to make ourselves feel better? Do we make a difference in someone's life? Have you made a difference in just one person's life today?Doing "one good thing" for someone else usually requires us to step out of our comfort zone. After a while, stepping out of that comfort zone becomes habit, and becomes a way of life. Nathan Steen decided as a teenager

Loved this novel. Very quick read. Although it was sad that Nathan died in the beginning, I loved how his legacy of doing 6 good things every day lived on. Very touching and makes one want to also carry on his idea.

This novel has an excellent premise: live your life self-sacrificially, keep your word, even if these things hurt. It inspires the reader to begin loving life daily, aware of others and their pain. It encourages the reader, through the story of Nathan, to begin the journey by starting with "one good thing" a day. It may even make the reader want to live daily tallying 7 good things and carrying pebbles around!
