Gifts from Our Grandmothers - Carol Dovi

"I loved my grandmother immensely . . . her memories resound within me -- clanging bells that remind me to breathe and dream." Full of wry, smart, moving, and inspiring slices of life, Gifts from Our Grandmothers celebrates all the wisdom, talent, love, and good humor of grandmas everywhere and from every religious, ethnic, and regional background. The women remembered in this book used their wisdom to make someone's life a little better, not only through tangible acts of kindness, but also through their attitudes of acceptance and caring. Whether they were adventurers, who inspired by example; safe havens, who provided comfort and support; or wise counselors, whose insight nurtured and challenged, they were the touchstones of many young lives. More than just smiling faces in photo albums, these were women whose legacies are as vivid and dynamic as their lives were. They knew the world could be changed one young heart at a time.Dovi, Carol is the author of 'Gifts from Our Grandmothers - Carol Dovi' with ISBN 9780609604885 and ISBN 0609604880.
