Gift Shop of Gratitude: a Journal to Explore the Journey of Your Life

Gift Shop of Gratitude offers a charmingly original way to remember and record the many gifts life has given us. Twenty warm, humorous, and illuminating essays—about common items found in gift shops—prompt readers to recall the people, events, and experiences for which they’re most grateful. Gratitude Pages at the end of each chapter enable readers to record the many gifts of their lives, creating a personal “testament of gratitude” and a precious family heirloom for children, grandchildren, and all whom they’ve loved.

From Kirkus Review: “A warmly rendered work that combines aspects of self-help books, memoirs, and therapeutic journals.”

“Fascinating, fun and informative, “Gift Shop of Gratitude: A Journal to Explore the Journey of Your Life” is ideal for gift giving to a loved one and a prized way of their recording elements of their life and thoughts for future generations. A combination of an instructional guide and a DIY journal, “Gift Shop of Gratitude” is especially and unreservedly recommended for personal and family collections.”–Midwest Book Review

Join Peter for a brief talk about the book, followed by conversation and Q&A.

*Bring your own kosher-style lunch or stop by Fox’s at the JCC before the talk.
