I posted earlier about last week-end. Oddly enough, it was a rather low-key week-end, and I found time to complete this book.
The author is Ellie Roscher. |
Another book I like to have visible during this time of year is this one.
Another local author. |
In this book, the author tells of her memories of summers returning to visit her grandmother in the town in which she was born, having moved away while she was young.
I have already begun my next book - Her Place at the Table - a woman's guide to negotiating five key challenges to leadership success. This book is also on the UMW Reading List in the Leadership Development category.
Again, those books look most interesting, especially the wonderful illustrations! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a great book

Happy Friday to you Sweet Nellie!
ReplyDeleteThe illustrations alone are enough to draw me into this book!

I'm afraid I won't be doing any reading this weekend, Nellie. We're "playing" the Picnic Game at my blog and there's tons to do before the virtual guests arrive:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing these selections though, the illustrations are inviting:)
I am so sorry that your little one, your pet, has gone to the Rainbow Bridge. They stay with us, become a part of us, depend on us, and we on them really. When they leave us it is stark and sad. I hope you have another one to love soon. xox
ReplyDeleteSpilled coffee picture! What an eye catching book cover!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, Nellie, I so love Nikki Giovanni and particularly cherish this poem. She has a poem called "Legacy" which is one of my very favorites by her!
