Dear Nicole,
I am so thrilled to tell you that our book club,
which has been operating since
1998, is discussing your book tonight at our meeting. So far, all the
input I have
received has been of loving the book.
It made me look at my life and relationships.
It allowed me to cast off some
things in my life. I absolutely have been working on the
judgments I make of
people for the last couple of years. This book certainly captures
that we never know
what others have experienced and being kind is what we all get do. 'A
little child shall
lead them.'
I just loved this book and what it allowed me to
process.
Thanks so much!
Here is Nicole's response:
Hi Michele,
I
wish I could have called in! (oh, maybe it isn't good to crash a book club
:-)).
1998...that
is quite an accomplishment. I suppose there are many good friends in the
group.
I'm honored you found a few things to take
away from the novel. As a writer, it makes all the work that goes into a
story worth it to hear such.
And yes, a little child shall lead
them...yes. That is exactly it! Funny what happens went you really
listen to children. Just saying, my greatest personal
growth
has been while listening to a certain
couple of kids in my life. I wouldn't be who I am without
them.
Thank you for taking the time to send a
note and for walking the island with me. I greatly appreciate
both.
Warmest regards, Michele,
Nicole
