Reviews

"These are the kinds of stories that you think about throughout your life after reading them. They are the kind you tell at campfires when all are huddled around, the kind you might read to your older son, daughter or grandchild. They are so rich, vivid and deeply rewarding stories that make you ponder about the world we live in and all its grand synchronicity. What's more inviting is that these stories are all real. They all really happened, and that makes it all the more worth while a read. Enrich your life, go on, take a read of this. Just click Add to Cart, it worth every penny and more.""I read the first four essays straight through and then I stopped, took a deep breath and decided to slow down and savor each tale. I felt as though Ms. Paxson and I were sitting at my kitchen table, having a cup of coffee, and she was telling me personally some of her experiences, discoveries and insights. She writes with humor, poignancy, and integrity inviting you to spend an evening solving a murder mystery, or hanging out in a tree house, or learning and sharing something valuable with a child. Ms. Paxson sees, hears and understands people, nature and life beyond the five senses and you smile, and want to read more. I will share this book with my daughter and son and with friends. If you love trees, and you love life and you're open to new perspectives, you will love this book!"
