And, they encounter unfailing generosity from people they meet—from the prayers of a North Dakota woman for their safekeeping, to the offer of a house in Michigan, to invitations for dinner and a place to sleep at stops all along the way. And there are incidents to laugh over, too, such as the bewildered woman who asked them, “Well, but where do you pack your dresses?”     Ride along with Alice and Bobbi as they embrace retirement with gusto and live their dream.

All the Blue Moons at the Wallace Hotel $123.01 In a haunting, uplifting novel about having a dream come true, Fiona Hopper longs to be accepted. She dreams of performing in an upcoming dance recital, and for her family to emerge from the shadows of an unspoken tragedy. From the Publisher Eleven-year-old Fiona lives with her mother and sister in a ramshackle house at the edge of town. More than anything, Fiona wants to perform in an upcoming dance recital. However, Fiona’s mother is unable to afford lessons; instead, Fiona practices on her own and comes to the attention of the local dance teacher. The story is interspersed with events at school and episodes involving her younger sister Wallace, an unusual child who dislikes wearing socks, sometimes wears two party dresses over one another, and has a penchant for weird food combinations. Wallace cares very little about what others may think of her, but Fiona longs to be accepted, and for her family to emerge from the shadows of an unspoken family tragedy. From Publishers Weekly Stone (When the Wind Bears Go Dancing) turns from picture books to middle-grade fiction with a novel about a family devastated by a shocking incident. Set during the Kennedy administration, the story is heavy with references to period TV shows, hand-me-down poodle skirts and Necco Wafers, details that may seem to the target audience as mannered as the characters. The narrator, 11-year-old Fiona, who makes much of her admiration for Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, lives with her younger sister, Wallace, in a dilapidated mansion, surrounded by their withdrawn, ex-sculptress mother’s unfinished statues. Fiona wants to fit in, and she also wishes more than anything to dance, but her passion (partly born from her father’s likening of Fiona to his mother, a Russian ballerina) never transcends plot device. Indeed, Fiona remains more a lens than an effective central character, overshadowed by the unconventional, angst-ridden Wallace and their friend Kit

America’s First Ladies: Power Players from Martha Washington to Michelle Obama $117.21 Meet Michelle Obama and all her predecessors in the first book that profiles every woman who has served as our nation’s First Lady. In America’s First Ladies: Power Players from Martha Washington to Michelle Obama, Rae Lindsay reports behind-the-scenes details about the lives of these forty-plus un-elected, unpaid women who filled what many call “the world’s hardest job.” They range from the famous to the obscure, from the beloved to the unpopular, from the well-educated to those who could barely read. Some were elegant and gregarious entertainers; others endured grief and pain in private. Many served as their husbands’ eyes, ears and voices. Some bloomed, while others wilted under the light of public scrutiny. Eleanor Roosevelt once said, “Any woman who goes into public life has to have a hide like a rhinoceros.” When Michelle Obama took on the First Lady role she set some major precedents: not only is she the first black First Lady, but in addition, her great-great-grandfather was a slave. She has vowed to be “Mom-in-Chief” to her pre-teen daughters (the youngest children to live in the White House since Amy Carter), but her education and career experience will lead her to take on significant national projects as well. Barack Obama calls her his “rock,” and, in this role, she most certainly will act as her husband’s influential “eyes and ears.” In America’s’ First Ladies, Rae Lindsay relates the major roles played by our Presidents’ wives or surrogates, as well as the “First Lady” foibles that impacted on presidential families and, sometimes, our country. • Martha Washington was such a poor speller that often George wrote her letters forher. She also recycled muslin grain sacks as morning dresses. • Abigail Adams often wrote three love letters a day to her husband; in one she urged him to “remember the ladies,” one of the first feminist statements. • Dolley Madison and

ONLY ME BROWNLOW’S CLERK. There was a pleasant bustle about the house that evening when the dogcart drove up. The sportsmen had been late of getting in, and nobody as yet had gone to dress; the door was open, and in the hall and about the broad doorsteps pretty groups were lingering. Sara and her friends on their way upstairs had encountered the gentlemen, fresh from their sport, some of whom had no doubt strayed to the sideboard, which was visible through the open door of the dining-room; but the younger ones were about the hall in their shooting-dresses talking to the girls and giving an account of themselves. There was about them all that sense of being too late, and having no right to be there, which gives a zest to such stolen moments. The men were tired with their day’s work, and, for that matter, the ladies too, who, after the monotony of the afternoon andtheir cup of tea, wanted a little amusement; and there was a sound of talk and of laughter and pleasant voices, which could be heard half-way down the avenue. They had all been living under the same roof for some days at least, and people get to know each other intimately under such circumstances. This was the scene upon which young Powys, still bewildered with delight, alighted suddenly, feeling as if he had fallen from the clouds. He jumped down with a light heart into the bright reflection of the lamp which fell over the steps, but

I will try to recollect some things about each one of my relatives as I remember them as a boy. My Grandfather, Savo was a slight man in my youthful eyes. I remember him sitting on his porcjh in the lowest rocking chair I have ever seen. He and my Grandmoher lived directly below our house on Chihuahua Hill. He was real old. My Grandfather would not rock on that chair. I would go to visit him and he would point to a wooden crate and he would tell me to sit down in his native Austrian dialect. He would say, “shedy, shedy” and he would say something to me in Serbian which of course I did not understand. He called me “Krsto”. that meant Chris I suppose. I would visit my Grandparents maybe once a week. He was a very quiet man, who never went anywhere. I went to see him one day and the rocking chair was empty. I went home and told my parents that “Yedo” (Grandfather wasn’t in his rocking chair. My Mom and Dad looked at each other and told me he had died. My eyes welled up with tears and I went to my room to cry. Imissed for a long time, but I eventually got over it. My Grandmother was a tough, yet gentle Lady. She was on the go all the times. All day and night time too. Her name was Christina, but I called her “Baba”, (Grandmother). She wore a scarf or some such cloth on her head, all year long. She wore dresses down to her ankles and she had long sleeves to cover her arms. All I ever saw of her was her face and hands, really. She wasn’t on the slight side, yet she wasn’t skinny. Whn she made coffee, she would save the coffee grounds and mix them in the dirt

The bed-room windows which all looked out on the front, had half dirty white curtains in them, above which could be seen dark red silk sashes of the same dirtiness. Mr. Molvern was a red haired quick tempered gentleman, with very small grey eyes and a clever looking pink face. He would always wear brown suits, but as everybody said he looked much better in black. Mrs. Molvern was quite on the contrary. She had indeed a quiet temper, with a pale delicate looking face with large brown eyes that looked at people with great interest, and her fair hair glistened in the sun. She usually wore half dirty white dresses, and in going out she wore a dark blue velvet jacket with black fur and a brown hat with red poppies. She never wore gloves except on Sundays and then she wore yellow cotton ones. At the present time they had a young gentleman staying with them, who lived in the neighbourhood. He was sitting in his room waiting for the town clock to strike . four, because when it did he had to go out and meet his truelove, whose name was Edith Plush. His own name was Thomas Henrick, but he was known as Burke in that family. At last hearing the hour strike, he snatched up a felt hat, and putting it on his greasy head started off to meet his truelove. When
