About this product

Product Information

Channel your inner Zen turtle with Sandy Gingras's gorgeous watercolor gift book. Long ago, Sandy Gingras read "The Tortoise and the Hare," a fable that teaches "slow and steady wins the race." But she didn't learn the lesson! Instead she lived the race of hurry-up and do-it-all every day. And it was tiring. But now, Gingras presents readers with a different kind of lesson from a different kind of turtle in the charming book Lessons of a Turtle . And it's a good lesson: Go with the slow! Life is about enjoying what's around you now and finding your own path. It's about the beauty of the journey more than the achievement of the finish line. So be like the turtle . . . notice, savor, bask, risk, grow. Put some life back in your life! Gingras helps readers get through life by using charming "turtlisms" that complement her just-as-cute turtle illustrations. She teaches us about life's little lessons with little treats like, "You can't move forward until you stick your neck out." and "The slower you go, the more you see." The author's little observations make a big difference on the journey through life. This book makes a lovely and inspiring gift.

Reviews
"Gabriel tells her story in a bell-clear voice... her fury at curcumstance is aching and voluminous." Kirkus Reviews, "Irreverent and tremendously moving? Gabriel handles heartbreaking issues frankly and with grace in this vigorously composed memoir." Publishers Weekly, "In this fiercely emotional memoir, Gabriel blends the story of her personal medical odyssey with the history of the disease."MORE Magazine, "Remarkable, uncompromising and full of intelligence and insight Gabriel has done a great service in probing social attitudes and in describing the intricate, often unspoken negotiations between the sick and the well." ?Hilary Mantel, Booker Prize-winning author ofWolf Hall, "Vivid and tense, at once raw and stylish,Eating Pomegranatesbrings the reader very close--for some readers unbearably close--to reality . . . devastatingly intimate."John Carey, author ofWhat Good Are the Arts?, "Gabriel shares an estimable gift for memoir and introspection in this forceful account? Raw grace is in evidence here as Gabriel lives to speak to realities to which all too many women can relate." Booklist(Starred Review), "Gabriel writes with stunning precision. Her fear and bravery is palpable"Robin Romm, author ofThe Mercy Papers

Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
