Tales of the Good Life by Laurie Parker Hardback Book Signed by Author

Tales of the Good Life by Laurie Parker Hardback Book Signed by Author In this lyrical rhymed story for children AND adults, old things in a junk store come magically to life and reminisce about the lives of the people to whom they once belonged. Illustrated with beautiful full-color collage artwork (by Parker as well), this charming book features secondhand items as its main "characters"--including a teddy bear, a bike, a golf club, an Easter basket, a watering can, a gumball machine, a tiara, a baseball, a carousel horse, a hymnbook, and a fishing pole. Each item shares happy memories and reflects on the sweet way of life enjoyed by its former owners. This curious, late-night conversation culminates with the ultimate tale--a touching tale with an important message for us all told by a very special object--an American flag. Tales of the Good Life is a fun peek into a junk store, a nostalgic look back, and most of all, a poignant reminder of how precious our way of life really is.
