Next Book - Birdbaths and Paper Cranes

Sharon gifted multiple copies of her books Birdbaths and Paper Cranes to Turning Pages!
We will be distributing these book to members on July 19th and reading through mid-August.
THANK YOU SHARON!!
Syndicated columnist Randall's writing style is intensely personal and unmistakably authentic, as if she were writing a letter to a trusted friend. She shares stories of how her blind brother once tried to drive a car; her sister lost a wig on a bumper car ride; her husband coached basketball while battling cancer; and her oldest child grew up to be "not a real doctor, but play one on TV." In Randall's hands, even stories about ordinary things-from a broken birdbath to a rusty porch swing to a thousand paper cranes-all shine with extraordinary meaning and grace. Laughing or crying, readers will surely see in her stories some of their own, and may look at life in a new way. Originally written as a weekly column for the Monterey County Herald (CA) newspaper, journalist/writer, Sharon Randall's debut novel is a collection of personal essays telling a family tale from beginning to end, and back to a new beginning.
