520    "From the #1 New York Times and international bestselling 
       authors of An Invisible Thread comes a heartwarming and 
       inspiring book about the incredible impact that acts of 
       kindness from strangers can have on the world around us. 
       One day in 1986, Laura Schroff, a busy ad sales executive,
       passed an eleven-year-old boy panhandling on the street. 
       She stopped and offered to take him to McDonald's for 
       lunch. Twenty years later, at Laura's fiftieth birthday 
       party, Maurice Mazyck gave a toast, thanking Laura for her
       act of kindness, which ended up changing the course of his
       life. In that toast, Maurice said that when Laura stopped 
       on that busy street corner all those years ago, God had 
       sent him an angel. Laura's invisible thread journey has 
       deepened her belief that angels--divine and otherwise--are
       all around us. After An Invisible Thread was published in 
       2011, readers from around the country and world began 
       sharing with Laura their own stories about how chance 
       encounters with strangers have changed their lives. From a
       woman who saved a life simply by buying someone a book, to
       a financier who gave a stranger the greatest gift of all, 
       to a teacher who chose a hug over discipline and changed a
       lost boy's future--Angels on Earth will introduce a series
       of remarkable people whose invisible thread stories will 
       move, surprise, and inspire readers. Angels on Earth sheds
       light on how each of us can live happier, more purposeful 
       lives through sharing acts of kindness"--|cProvided by
