Walking Stick-Stories from an Old Man

Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
It wasn't until I started remembering the stories my mother told when I was a child that I began to realize that there were messages hidden in those stories, encouraging messages that helped me find the strength to overcome my struggles. They made me realize that the errors I made in my life were not errors at all. I had endured those life experiences not for punishment but to teach others how to find their own strengths in life. I began to use those stories in my work, to develop different methods of working with people, methods that can be easily understood and that do not involve passing judgment on people, stories that can empower people.

49 Uses for a Walking Stick
Author: Frank Hopkinson
Publisher: Rizzoli Publications
ISBN: 191135874X
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
Walking sticks have had a bad press. For too long the walking stick has been portrayed as a workaday item of codgerism, a simple support for the aged and infirm. This is not the case. Possession of a walking stick opens up a whole gamut of opportunities beyond the simple 'leaning against' purpose. In 49 Uses for A Walking Stick Frank Hopkinson explains the variety of practical uses a walking stick can be put to, from flicking filthy slugs off a lawn and parting crowds to alerting a theatre-goer two rows in front that his rapid consumption of fruit bonbons is ruining everyone's enjoyment. Illustrated throughout, the book also includes a miscellany of walking stick trivia, facts and figures and fun information.
