I lost my wife in 2020 to a brain tumor just a few weeks after we had celebrated our 48th wedding anniversary. “Celebrated” is a word that springs back when pressed down. More subdued than earlier ones, to be sure, that last anniversary was nonetheless a felt celebration of a lifetime together. A lifetime does not disappear just as soon as you know for certain that the end of it for one of you is near. It does not even disappear when that end comes, for you have kept what you would not part with. Robert Frost said that, and I have tried to shape my own words and imagination to explore in my own way the poetic and emotional landscape he so often navigated masterfully. I would read Frost’s poetry to my wife in the evenings as she gazed toward another unpredictable night. It is required of us all to traverse that ground probably twice—once if we are called upon to give care, and once when we ourselves need to be given caring attention during our final stanzas. These poems are not only about loss, although loss and grief are my constant companions as I walk among trees. More importantly, these poems are about remontancy—the surprising emergence of new life, the recognition of continued being and doing, the glimpses I offer of me and my son picking up—thanks to her—where she left off.Mostra libro
Let the wild rumpus start—Where the Wild Things Are is turning sixty with this all-new digital audio edition narrated by Michelle Obama! Maurice Sendak's Caldecott Medal–winning picture book has become one of the most highly acclaimed and best-loved children's books of all time. This iconic story of Max and his journey to visit the Wild Things has inspired a movie, an opera, and the imagination of generations. His mother called him “WILD THING!” And Max said “I’LL EAT YOU UP!” So he was sent to bed without eating anything. That very night in Max’s room a forest grew and grew— Mary Pols of Time magazine wrote that ""what makes Sendak's book so compelling is its grounding effect: Max has a tantrum and in a flight of fancy visits his wild side, but he is pulled back by a belief in parental love to a supper 'still hot.'"" Generations have shared this beautiful book, and readers of all ages will want to return to it again and again.New York Public Library's #4 book on the list of ""Top Check Outs of All Time""One of the National Education Association's ""Teachers' Top 100 Books for Children""The top picture book in School Library Journal's survey of its readers Maurice Sendak was also the creator of such classics as In the Night Kitchen, Outside Over There, Higglety Pigglety Pop!, and Nutshell Library.Mostra libro
In “Christmas of Long Ago,” Lucy Maud Montgomery transports readers back to a simpler time, weaving a gentle tale filled with memory, warmth, and the spirit of the season. Told through the reflective eyes of an older narrator, the story recalls a childhood Christmas in a rural village—one filled not with grand gifts or glittering decorations, but with love, laughter, and small wonders that made the holiday magical. Montgomery captures the beauty of family togetherness and the quiet joy of giving from the heart. Snow-covered landscapes, candlelit rooms, and homemade presents evoke a tender nostalgia for the innocence and simplicity of bygone days. As the narrator looks back, the story reminds readers that the true meaning of Christmas lies not in material things, but in affection, generosity, and shared memories that endure through the years.Mostra libro
