She wouldn't change a thing / by Adlakha, Sarah,author.;
"Sliding Doors meets Life After Life in Sarah Adlakha's story about a wife and mother who is given the chance to start over at the risk of losing everything she loves.

But when the Sears Christmas Wish Book arrives and the boys start obsessing over every toy in it, Audrey and Eve realize they must first teach them the true significance of the holiday.

The drive across Canada : the remarkable story of the Trans-Canada Highway / by Richardson, Mark,1962-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.The Trans-Canada Highway is one of the longest highways in the world--7,700 kilometres from St. John's, Newfoundland, to Victoria, British Columbia, with almost the same distance again on secondary routes. It's ironically Canadian, but its story is a long and winding journey. In The Drive Across Canada, automotive journalist Mark Richardson tells the stories of the pioneers who first drove across the country in the early days of cars and motorcycles, even before any roads existed, and of the political fight to create a physical link that would connect Canadians to every province of their vast country. Richardson drove the length of the Trans-Canada Highway in 2023, repeating the drive he first completed in 2012. In his most recent journey, he encounters a hurricane in Newfoundland, a firestorm in British Columbia, and unspeakable tragedies on the Prairies. He meets people whose lives have been changed by the highway, sometimes in ways they could never have imagined, and along the way the highway changes his life too.
