Book Description
When Laura Wilson dies at the age of ninety, her caregiver discovers a key that does much more than unlock a beautiful Oriental chest. It unlocks a door to Laura's tangled past-a life replete with joys, sorrows, and surprises. Advance Praise for Laura's Lullaby "Laura's Lullaby is rich in local color, character, and theme. The story includes a secret and a memorably touching turn of events. Laura is the distant, eccentric auntie about whose life you only thought you knew. An authentically 'good read'." -Gary Townsend, Idaho Writers League "The simple style of Laura's Lullaby illustrates to the reader through deep insights that every life has its disappointments, its triumphs, and in the end, its redemption. Laura's Lullaby leads one to wonder how many humble, unassuming people there are among us whose stories are never told." -Karen A. Jeppsen, B.M., BYU; grandmother of fourteen "In Laura's Lullaby, the reader peers through a kaleidoscope, glimpsing the personality of one charming senior citizen from beginning to end. As the layers peel back to reveal her desires, passions, and tender experiences, Laura's story becomes a fascinating study of the idiosyncrasies that makes one person unique." -Polly O. Strobelt, geriatric registered nurse

Author: Diana Secker Larson
Publisher: Everyman's Library
ISBN: 0375414193
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
In this enchanting and comprehensive collection, the lullabies we all were rocked to sleep with, such as “Rock-a-Bye Baby” and “Hush Little Baby, Don’t You Cry,” mingle with traditional lullabies from around the world. Here are beautiful lyrics to sing or read to little ones, from Shakespeare’s lullaby for the fairy queen, Titania, to Brahms’s “Lullaby”; and from Gershwin’s “Summertime” to Langston Hughes’s lovely lullaby for a “night black baby.” Here, too, are poems for children that range from tender to nonsensical, from quiet to raucous–from Walter de la Mare to T. S. Eliot to Lewis Carroll, Edward Lear, and Ogden Nash. Whether the intent is to soothe or to amuse, there’s something here for every mood, every child, and the child in every adult. A delightful, gift-perfect collection.
