"Country Girl is Edna O'Brien's exquisite account of her dashing, barrier-busting, up-and-down life."-National Public Radio When Edna O'Brien's first novel, The Country Girls, was published in 1960, it so scandalized the O'Briens' local parish that the book was burned by its priest. O'Brien was undeterred and has since created a body of work that bears comparison with the best writing of the twentieth century. Country Girl brings us face-to-face with a life of high drama and contemplation. Starting with O'Brien's birth in a grand but deteriorating house in Ireland, her story moves through convent school to elopement, divorce, single-motherhood, the wild parties of the '60s in London, and encounters with Hollywood giants, pop stars, and literary titans. There is love and unrequited love, and the glamour of trips to America as a celebrated writer and the guest of Jackie Onassis and Hillary Clinton. Country Girl is a rich and heady accounting of the events, people, emotions, and landscape that have imprinted upon and enhanced one lifetime.

Our Love Is from Clever Publishing is the perfect way to celebrate the love between parent and child. This sweet rhyme explores the love of family members throughout the year as they engage in activities together during winter, spring, summer, and fall. Children will learn about the four seasons and the various activities that can be enjoyed in each. Young readers will also explore poetry through rhyme and meter as they listen to the verses being read, or read the story themselves. In winter, families spend time playing in the snow, enjoying holiday lights, sledding down hills, and warming up by the fire with a mug of hot chocolate after time outside. Spring brings new flowers and days of flyingkites and looking for shapes in the clouds. In summer, families take walks to the park to watch the animals in the pond, and children play hide-and-seek, swim with friends, and enjoy ice-cream cones to stay cool. Families gaze at the fireflies when it's dark. And the season of fall brings with it cooler weather spent wandering in corn mazes, jumping in leaves, enjoying homemade stew, and decorating the house with pumpkins. And through every season and change that the year brings, the love of family remains as strong as ever!
