Signing: Cynthia Copeland and Lucie Bryar
Water Street Bookstore, Saturday, December 13, 2014 at 11am
Cynthia L. Copeland has a gift for discovering those sorts of simple, timeless lessons. She did it when her children were younger with Really Important Stuff My Kids Have Taught Me. Now she distills all-new wisdom from her lifelong love of dogs. Really Important Stuff My Dog Has Taught Me is tender, funny, warm, and utterly inspiring. Pairing an irresistible photograph with just the right sentiment, every page delivers a life lesson that appeals as much to our hearts as our minds. It reminds us again and again of what’s important, like love: “Be there when others need you.” Compassion: “Even the smallest act of kindness matters.” Perseverance: “Keep going until you find your way home.” A healthy sense of self: “Make it squeak until someone pays attention.” Living in the present moment: “Scratch where it itches, when it itches.” And that happiness is a choice: “Leap higher than you have to.”
Cynthia Copeland is author of more than 25 books, including The Diaper Diaries and Fun on the Run. Her Workman titles alone have over 710,000 copies in print. Her work has been featured on Good Morning America, selected for Oprah's "O List" in O Magazine, recommended by Ann Landers, and featured in Family Circle Magazine. She lives in Keene, NH.
Walkers, bikers, paddlers and snowshoers can encounter relics of the past and their incredible tales from Keene to the Seacoast. "Exploring Southern New Hampshire" takes history off the page, out of the car and into the welcoming pine-scented woods and pristine waters of the Granite State.
Hike Mount Monadnock, paddle the Nashua River and retrace Lincoln's footsteps down Exeter's streets. Experience the legacy of a women's sawmill at Turkey Pond from the waters that powered it. Visit Cathedral of the Pines, a beautiful outdoor altar built with stones from historic sites around the world. Set sail on the Piscataqua River onboard a gundalow and learn about the region's rich maritime history. Local history explorer and nature lover Lucie Bryar leads readers through the Monadnock, Merrimack Valley and Seacoast regions. Granite State natives and transplants alike will explore trails and waterways to gain a new appreciation for the history hidden in natural New Hampshire.
Lucie Bryar has worked for nearly thirty years as a marketing and feature writer in banking, higher education and health care and has published a number of short non-fiction articles. She was at one time a featured blogger on nh.com and at paddling.net; this is her first book. She currently works for a small non-profit serving people in need of housing assistance. She blogs about her Granite State explorations at nhloveitorleafit.blogspot.com.
