A grand old time / by Leigh, Judy,author.;
Evie Gallagher is regretting her hasty move into a care home. She may be seventy-five and recently widowed, but she's absolutely not dead yet. And so, one morning, Evie walks out of Sheldon Lodge and sets off on a Great Adventure across Europe. But not everyone thinks Great Adventures are appropriate for women of Evie's age, least of all her son Brendan and his wife Maura, who follow a trail of puzzling text messages to bring her home. When they finally catch up with her, there are shocks in store ... because while Brendan may have given up on life and love, Evie certainly has not.

The parenting handbook : your guide to raising resilient children / by Johnson, Tania,author.; Schamuhn, Tammy,author.;
Includes bibliographical references.Being a parent can feel overwhelming and exhausting. So much of the prevailing advice on raising children leaves parents feeling conflicted and confused rather than confident that what they're doing is best for their children. In 'The Parenting Handbook: Your Guide to Raising Resilient Children', Tammy Schamuhn and Tania Johnson-founders of the Institute of Child Psychology, child psychologists, and moms with an immense social media following-give parents the answers they so desperately need. Using the latest research in neuroscience and developmental psychology, and weaving in concrete strategies, Tammy and Tania have created an essential roadmap for parenting that truly works. Here you will find the secrets to raising children who are kind, empathic, self-regulated, emotionally intelligent, and who grow up to become gritty, resourceful, successful critical thinkers who can handle hard things. After reading this handbook, you will be well-equipped to: tackle tough parenting problems such as screen time and bedtime battles, implement effective discipline strategies, manage meltdowns and tantrums, foster optimal brain development in your children, create positive mental health outcomes, lose it less on your child and be the parent you always hoped you'd be.
