About the Author
Alice Taylor lives in the village of Innishannon in County Cork, in a house attached to the local supermarket and post office. Her first book, To School Through the Fields, was published in 1988. It was an immediate success and quickly became the biggest selling book ever published in Ireland. Alice has written nearly twenty books since then, largely exploring her beloved village and the ways of life in rural Ireland. She has also written poetry and fiction: her first novel, The Woman of the House, was an immediate bestseller. Most recently, she wrote a children's picture book with her daughter Lena Angland, called Ellie and the Fairy Door. Emma Byrne is a graphic designer and artist. She is a graduate of Central Saint Martins School of Art and Design. She has won numerous awards for her design including The IDI (Irish Design Institute) Graduate Designer of the Year, the IDI Promotional Literature Award for her work on Brown Morning, and a Children's Books Ireland Bisto Merit Award for her work on Something Beginning With P: New Poems from Irish Poets. She has illustrated many books, including Best-Loved Oscar Wilde, Best Loved Yeats, The Most Beautiful Letter in the World by Karl O'Neill, a special edition of Ulysses by James Joyce, and A Terrible Beauty by Mairead Ashe Fitzgerald. She lives in a thatched house in Co. Wexford.

Irish writer Alice Taylor offers a heartwarming meditation on the beauty to be found in the world around us. Taylor's natural optimism makes voice pro Jennifer Fitzgerald a wonderful choice to perform this inspiring writing. Her relaxed tone and audible love of Taylor's message conjure memorable conversations we've had with close friends--warm interactions that touched our souls. The audiobook invites us to recognize the goodness within ourselves and to let it guide the way we look at our friends, as well as the details of our surroundings. With charming vignettes set in rural Ireland, this audiobook overflows with gratitude and infectious wonder. Taylor's peaceful approach to life, captured fully in Jennifer Fitzgerald's appealing performance, will remind listeners that joy in life starts with the way we approach it

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.
