This Christmas
Olivia Miles - 2019
This Christmas, the Campbell sisters each have a wish: Tess is hoping to get through this first Christmas without her husband and rebuild her life as a single mother. She doesn’t know what she would have done this past year without the support of her late husband’s best friend, but as their connection starts to build, her future feels more uncertain than ever. Carrie has reason to believe that her boyfriend is finally ready to pop the question. But when their big talk turns out to be a break-up instead of a proposal, she is forced to take a hard look at the life she has built with him, and the one she can have without him. Jules has finally found a job she loves, and she’s expecting a promotion by the year-end—not a pink slip. To make matters worse, her closest friend has decided that this is a good time to tell her that he’s in love with her, and now she has to decide if she feels the same…or risk losing him forever. With their lives at crossroads, the sisters reunite for a holiday in Winter Lake for the first time in five years. But when old wounds are opened and guarded secrets are revealed, the Campbell sisters soon discover that this Christmas is going to be nothing like they had planned, but it will certainly be one to remember.

The Grasshopper and the Ant: Aesop's Fables in Verses (Children's story picture books Book 3)
Sigal Adler - 2018
*** About Aesop’s Fables Who was Aesop, and why are his fables famous all over the world? In fact, very little is known about this mysterious Ancient Greek figure. He is thought to have been a slave originally from Africa, but even that isn’t known for certain. But his stories, with their talking animals and simple moral lessons, have been popular for thousands of years. They have been translated into almost every language and were among the first books to be printed when the printing press was invented in the 1400s. The most famous Aesop’s Fable is probably the story of The Hare and the Tortoise, with its message that “slow and steady wins the race.” Children everywhere have grown up loving these delightful short tales, learning and growing through their bond with these timeless classics. I grew up enjoying many of Aesop’s fables and I’m excited to share them with you here in my own style, a little more contemporary and told in rhymes to make them fun to read and listen to. I hope you and your kids will love sharing these stories and learning from their messages just as much as I always have.
