Hilda, and thank you for the kind words. I wasn't sure how I'd get on with writing book review posts, as my natural inclination with films, books and music is to simply shout "You've got to buy this book! I loved it! It's really,<em>really</em> good!" (Strunk and White would curl up and groan with the amount of reallys that slip in when I'm excited.) But it is a good book and she has good mini posters with it. Let us know how you get on with it. You’re welcome. Hilda, and thank you for the kind words.

The book has been in my To Read pile for a long time, and now you've really whet my appetite to get to it. Thanks :-) Hi Janice,

This is a really good review! The book has been in my To Read pile for a long time, and now you’ve really whet my appetite to get to it.

Thanks :-)

One of the things that relaxes and expands me at the moment is enjoying these comments boxes. I had a small, private blog for a year just to learn the technicalities. I occasionally sent a few links to coaching colleagues, but kept the comments switched off because I was scared I wouldn't be able to handle them. These 'boxes' here are heartwarming. I learn, I link-hop, I enjoy what folk share and I feel safe. (By the way, Nadia has a guest post today at Goodlife Zen, one of my own favourite 'feels good to be here' blogs.) @Cindy I'll post a chocolatey recipe for you sometime! I could just hear you and Mia at that piano - and as always, her sense of childlike wonder, her wisdom beyond her years and yet so <i>because </i>of her years warms my heart. I'm glad you and Sean are nurturing her soul like this, and I'm glad you share it with us. This may sound daft, but although I'm enjoying the young adults my kids are turning into, I sometimes miss my 'youngsters' and the jaw dropping gems of innocent wisdom they used to come out with before they became self aware t(w)eenagers. My daughter was in a singing competition a few weeks ago and her songs were from Broadway shows. They gave her a great chance to express fragments of her life experience and combine her drama skills with her love of music. @Nadia
