Book Description
Dear Nanny, Not long ago I was encouraged to write a book, called "Ella Mae Said." The reason was that I was always repeating something that you said. However hilarious it was it always had a ring of truth and applied to the situation at hand and even had scripture to back it up.So in the earlier part of 2019, almost 24 years since you have been gone, I did not think it strange when it was prophesied that I write a Nanny and Me Words of Wisdom Devotional. For surely I had at least a month's worth of your sayings, to be a blessing to whoever would read them. It would be a labor of love, and that is exactly what it has been. For it was your love that saved my very life.So as I continue to share what I selfishly tried to hold close so close, that I almost lost myself and bless the world with the phenomenal you that you so freely poured into me, I understand it now. I was left to write the unwritten testimony of your life and share Jesus with future generations in a way that is palatable and easy to understand. To you Jesus was never deep or hard; He just was and still is, and that is enough.Until then I'll be loving you always, Ramona

Book Description
Not quite part of the family and more than just an employee; idealised and demonised, the nanny has always had a difficult role in family life. Any discussion of nannies arouses strong emotions in those who have employed them and reveals a sometimes shocking range of experiences both for the nannies and for the children they looked after. Winston Churchill as a child rarely saw his mother and idolized his nanny, paying for fresh flowers to be maintained on her grave and keeping her portrait by his bedside till he died. A nanny to the one of the principal landowning families in Dorset nearly starved their treasured heir to death, while a Suffolk nanny found parting from one of her charges so traumatic that she suffered a mental breakdown. This book weaves personal stories viewed through the eyes of nannies, mothers and children into a fascinating cultural history of the iconic British nanny. Katherine Holden goes beyond the myths to discover where our tradition of employing nannies comes from and to explore the ways in which it has and has not changed over the past century. From the Norland Nannies' 'method' and the magical Mary Poppins, to the terrifying breach of trust in films, The Nanny and The Hand that Rocks the Cradle, to today's child-tamer 'Supernanny', our culture has alternately welcomed and rejected this approach to child-care. The tales told in this history reach to the heart of the nanny dilemma that parents still struggle with today.

Book Description
Finding Wisdom: Learning From Those Who Are Wise looks at wisdom through the lives of nineteen wise individuals from five distinct cultures—Navajo, Japanese, Kenyan, Saami, and Western European. The philosophies of these men and women unfold through their life stories. Traveling the world to meet these extraordinary men and women, the author discovered what the wise have in common, regardless of their cultures. All of us can benefit from those individuals who generate wise thoughts and actions. Through learning about “wise ones” who live among us, readers will find guidance for navigating through difficult times in their own lives and will learn to recognize the universal attributes of wisdom. Finding Wisdom explores wisdom as an attribute that men and women can and do attain. The book also addresses the questions: What is wisdom? Who is wise? What makes them so? How does one seek wisdom? Can wisdom be taught? and What difference can wisdom make in contemporary society?
