Paperback. Condition: Good. New York Times bestselling author Marie Bostwick welcomes readers back to picturesque New Bern, Connecticut--a perfect place for a woman whose marriage is in turmoil to discover a new pattern for living. . . Twice in her life, college counselor Gayla Oliver fell in love at first sight. The first time was with Brian--a lean, longhaired, British bass player. Marriage followed quickly, then twins, and gradually their bohemian lifestyle gave way to busy careers in New York. Gayla's second love affair is with New Bern, Connecticut. Like Brian, the laid back town is charming without trying too hard. It's the ideal place to buy a second home and reignite the spark in their twenty-six year marriage. Not that Gayla is worried. At least, not until she finds a discarded memo in which Brian admits to a past affair and suggests an amicable divorce. Devastated, Gayla flees to New Bern. Though Brian insists he's since recommitted to his family, Gayla's feelings of betrayal may go too deep for forgiveness. Besides, her solo sabbatical is a chance to explore the creative impulses she sidelined long ago--quilting, gardening, and striking up new friendships with the women of the Cobbled Court circle--particularly Ivy, a single mother confronting fresh starts and past hurts of her own. With all of their support, Gayla just might find the courage to look ahead, decide which fragments of her old life she wants to keep, which are beyond repair--and how to knot the fraying ends until a bold new design reveals itself. . . Praise for Marie Bostwick's Between Heaven And Texas Brilliant. . .the characters thunder with life right off the page and into your heart in this quintessential story of family, forgiveness, and nobility. I just adored every single page --Dorothea Benton Frank, New York Times bestselling author.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Kids feel things so deeply that, a lot of times, it catches parents off-guard. But there's a way to give kids back their power by helping them find their voice. My Magic Bottle of Emotions explores twelve everyday emotions in a way that's meaningful for young children, using colorful language and illustrations.When you're feeling shy, you're PINK: pink prickles, throat tickles, bashful, quiet, invisible. When you're feeling disappointed, you're BLUE: blue, a lost shoe, let down, confused, frustrated. By the end of this imaginative book, a child will associate emotions with familiar colors, have a better understanding of how emotions appear, and, most importantly, feel safe to let their colorful emotions POP out of their magic bottle so they don't get trapped inside.Whether a child is typically developing or has special needs, emotions can be difficult to identify and correctly label.This can be especially true for kids that fall on the autism spectrum. Our goal was to create a book that fosters emotional intelligence in children of all abilities. Many kids on the spectrum have varying degrees of sensory processing disorder (SPD). That's why we used as many sensory words as possible used to describe each emotion in this book. Yellow swing, for example, is a great description for happy because children with SPD often find the act of swinging calming and grounding.The Center on the Social and Emotional Foundations for Early Learning (CSEFEL) recommends using picture books to help children identify emotions and teach them how to deal with their feelings. For children and adults, emotional intelligence (EQ) has been determined to be a greater contributor to success than even IQ. Design, Yip Jar (illustrator). …

Paperback. Condition: Good. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * Read with Jenna Book Club Pick as Featured on Today * As a young mother facing a terminal diagnosis, Julie Yip-Williams began to write her story, a story like no other. What began as the chronicle of an imminent and early death became something much more--a powerful exhortation to the living. "An exquisitely moving portrait of the daily stuff of life."--The New York Times Book Review (Editors' Choice) NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The New York Times Book Review * Time * Real Simple * Good Housekeeping That Julie Yip-Williams survived infancy was a miracle. Born blind in Vietnam, she narrowly escaped euthanasia at the hands of her grandmother, only to flee with her family the political upheaval of her country in the late 1970s. Loaded into a rickety boat with three hundred other refugees, Julie made it to Hong Kong and, ultimately, America, where a surgeon at UCLA gave her partial sight. She would go on to become a Harvard-educated lawyer, with a husband, a family, and a life she had once assumed would be impossible. Then, at age thirty-seven, with two little girls at home, Julie was diagnosed with terminal metastatic colon cancer, and a different journey began. The Unwinding of the Miracle is the story of a vigorous life refracted through the prism of imminent death. When she was first diagnosed, Julie Yip-Williams sought clarity and guidance through the experience and, finding none, began to write her way through it--a chronicle that grew beyond her imagining. Motherhood, marriage, the immigrant experience, ambition, love, wanderlust, tennis, fortune-tellers, grief, reincarnation, jealousy, comfort, pain, the marvel of the body in full rebellion--this book is as sprawling and majestic as the life it records. It is inspiring and instructive, delightful and shattering. It is a book of indelible moments, seared deep--an incomparable guide to living vividly by facing hard truths consciously. With humor, bracing honesty, and the cleansing power of well-deployed anger, Julie Yip-Williams set the stage for her lasting legacy and one final miracle: the story of her life. Praise for The Unwinding of the Miracle "Everything worth understanding and holding on to is in this book. . . . A miracle indeed."--Kelly Corrigan, New York Times bestselling author "A beautifully written, moving, and compassionate chronicle that deserves to be read and absorbed widely."--Siddhartha Mukherjee, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Emperor of All Maladies.…
