Author Description

With creative innocence in her brush & wry wit in her pen, island resident Sandy Gingras offers a delightful "How To" book that reminds us to "float" & "make a splash"; to "ebb & flow" & "run with waves" or "laugh like a gull"; to "sugar yourself with sand," to "walk tender," & to "thank." With charming illustrations & common-sense, spiritual wisdom, this endearing book gently encourages us to live life on simpler terms - whether your island is in the water or in your mind. It's a refreshing gift book that The SandPaper calls "the perfect mini-addition to the coffee table." How to Live on an Island gives us an opportunity to reflect on the most simple & important things - ourselves & our relationships with others in this world. It's a full-color illustrated philosophy that will enchant you. Originally published as a first edition paperback, this book has been expanded with a thoughtful introduction by the author in this new hardcover edition.
