Looking Into the Rearview Mirror

Viac o knihe

In Looking into the Rearview Mirror you will find pithy vignettes and verse about the author's long marriage, her career in preschools, her years as an activist --always balancing the serious with the humorous. Who hasn't tussled with teenagers (Good Kids Aren t Always Good), had concerns about justice (Race Relations 101), about loss (The Heart Doesn't Forget), about aging (Tea Dancing), about post 9-11 patriotism (My Escape)? If you enjoy Erma Bombeck, you will enjoy Looking into the Rearview Mirror. ** "A welcome antidote to current tabloid news, Looking into the Rearview Mirror is leavened with levity--just what we need to recapture our sense of a common humanity." Ted Ruhig, activist/columnist and professor of Gerontology, American River College. "Looking into the Rearview Mirror will be taken down from your book shelf to read aloud to friends and to re-read. Such pleasure in reading is hard to come by." Theodore Webb, Unitarian-Universalist minister-emeritus and author of Seven Sons: Millionaires and Vagabonds. "This charming, occasionally inspirational collection of stories will leave you laughing, sometimes through your tears." JoAnn Fuller, national co-chair of Peace Action.
