SUMMARY:Please join us to celebrate the publication of Wild By Design with Margie Ruddick
DESCRIPTION:Can nature—in all its unruly wildness—be an integral part of creative landscape design? In her beautifully illustrated book\, Wild by Design\, award-winning designer Margie Ruddick urges designers to look beyond the rules often imposed by both landscaping convention and sustainability checklists. Instead\, she offers a set of principles for a more creative and intuitive approach that challenges the entrenched belief that natural processes cannot complement high-level landscape design. Wild by Design defines and explains the five fundamental strategies Ruddick employs to give life\, beauty\, and meaning to landscapes: Reinvention\, Restoration\, Conservation\, Regeneration\, and Expression. Drawing on her own projects–from New York City’s Queens Plaza\, formerly a concrete jungle of traffic\, to a desertscape backyard in Baja\, California\, to the Living Water Park in Chengdu\, China–she offers guidance on creating beautiful\, healthy landscapes that successfully reconnect people with larger natural systems.

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of Fine\, Fine\, Fine\, Fine\, Fine with author Diane Williams
DESCRIPTION:The very short stories of Diane Williams have been aptly called “folk tales that hammer like a nail gun\,” and these 40 new ones are sharper than ever. They are unsettling\, yes\, frequently revelatory\, and more often than not downright funny. \nNot a single moment here is what you might expect. While there is immense pleasure to be found in Williams’s spot-on observations about how we behave in our highest and lowest moments\, the heart of the drama beats in the language of American short fiction’s grand master\, whose originality\, precision\, and power bring the familiar into startling and enchanted relief.

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of Palm Beach Chic and Artists Living with Art with Jennifer Rudick\, Amanda Benchley\, and Stacey Goergen
DESCRIPTION:In Palm Beach Chic\, Jennifer Ash Rudick leads the tour of newly restored Mediterranean Revival houses by Mizner\, Fatio\, and Volk\, charming cottages\, Moorish casbahs\, and vintage condos. Lush photographs capture extraordinary gardens\, verandas\, lakeside pavilions\, a rustic ranch\, and simple pastel houses sheltered by dense thickets of Norfolk pines and age-old banyans.

Here readers will find beautifully renovated lofts in SoHo\, 19th-century Brooklyn brownstones\, and a restored farmhouse in the Hudson River Valley\, all filled with cherished artworks as well as objects\, textiles\, and ceramics set on display in artful and creative ways. Photographed by Oberto Gili\, these interiors will inspire readers to rethink the display of their own art and treasured possessions\, whether it’s a perfectly placed painting or rocks found on a beach. \n

SUMMARY:Celebrate the NYC launch of A Day with Bonefish Joe with author Elizabeth Howard and Illustrator Diana Wege
DESCRIPTION:An enchanting story about an adventurous girl and her day at sea with Bonefish Joe\, one of the best-known bonefish guides in the Bahamas. \nYoung and fearless Flossie lives on Harbour Island\, a small outpost in the Bahamas known for its exquisite three-mile pink sand beach and for bonefishing\, a compelling catch-and-release enterprise that pits a determined angler against an inedible\, surprisingly powerful\, and elusive quarry.

One Sunday\, after church\, surprisingly Flossie’s wish is granted and she and her friend discover the allure\, the challenge\, and the delights of hooking (and releasing) one of angling’s greatest prizes. Diana Wege’s lush and vibrant illustrations of the island\, its inhabitants\, its customs\, and its architecture\, bring this story alive\, perfectly catching the character\, culture\, and charm of Harbour Island.

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of The Crazy Thing with Carl Lehmann-Haupt
DESCRIPTION:The Crazy Thing tries to respond to this endless question. It is a love story entwined with a philosophic quest. Beginning from the question about dying it goes on to explore some ways in which it might be possible to begin over again\, and  perhaps still learn how to live ‘somewhere near the end.’ The Crazy Thing is a memoir with three themes: It tells the story of the author’s long love affair with the poet\, Celestine Frost; the drama of his enigmatic calling as an artist\, writer and thinker; and his lifelong search for the incalculable limits of the self. The Crazy Thing is a work in progress\, whose outcome is yet to be known. This first small volume will be followed by six more. It contains an invitation to the reader to post their questions\, comments and refutations regarding the book’s conclusions on a website — thecrazything.net. The author will take into account the most pertinent of those challenges to his understanding as he composes the subsequent installments. In the end\, the book will be a work of collaboration between the author and the community it creates. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of Turning 15 on the Road to Freedom with Lynda Blackmon Lowery\, Elspeth Leacock\, and Susan Buckley

Jailed eleven times before her fifteenth birthday\, Lowery fought alongside Martin Luther King\, Jr. for the rights of African-Americans. In this memoir\, she shows today’s young readers what it means to fight nonviolently (even when the police are using violence\, as in the Bloody Sunday protest) and how it felt to be part of changing American history. \nStraightforward and inspiring\, this beautifully illustrated memoir brings readers into the middle of the Civil Rights Movement\, complementing Common Core classroom learning and bringing history alive for young readers. \n

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of In Love in New York with authors Caitlin Leffel and Jacob Lehman
DESCRIPTION:New York is a city for lovers: In Love in New York guides the reader to the most romantic sights and destinations the city has to offer. Whether you want to watch the sun rise over the East River like Woody and Diane or enjoy a Cary Grant/Deborah Kerr moment at the top of the Empire State Building\, there is no greater city than New York for couples in love. The book begins with “first impressions\,” the iconic New York sights that never fail to dazzle: the skyline (and the best places to view it)\, the most beautiful blocks and neighborhoods\, the famous views (rooftops\, bridges\, riverside parks). Chapters follow on great date ideas\, including destination museums and unusual “dinner-and-a-movie/theater” combinations. For readers ready to commit\, the authors detail the best proposal spots; where to go ring shopping; the coolest places to register for gifts; and information about the legal requirements for marrying in the city (gay and straight)\, including a rundown on the classic City Hall wedding—with the best places to buy flowers and to celebrate afterwards\, naturally. There are also ideas for planning honeymoons and anniversaries. Throughout\, sidebars offer romantic options such as wonderful bars with fireplaces\, the prettiest park benches\, great New York literary and film affairs to inspire your visit\, and romantic day trips within and near the five boroughs. From champagne on the Peninsula rooftop in midtown to ice skating in Bryant Park\, In Love in New York is the perfect gift for any couple dreaming of experiencing the romance of New York.

SUMMARY:Celebrate the Publication of Nicholas Nixon's The Brown Sisters with MoMA curator Sarah Meister
DESCRIPTION:In August 1974\, Nick Nixon made a photograph of his wife\, Bebe\, and her three sisters. He wasn’t pleased with the result and discarded the negative. In July 1975 he made one that seemed promising enough to keep. At the time\, the Brown sisters were 15 (Mimi)\, 21 (Laurie)\, 23 (Heather)\, and 25 (Bebe). The following June\, Laurie Brown graduated from college\, and Nick made another picture of the four sisters. It was after this second successful picture that the group agreed to gather annually for a portrait\, and settled on the series’ two constants: the sisters would always appear in the same order—from left to right\, Heather\, Mimi\, Bebe\, and Laurie—and they would jointly agree on a single image to represent a given year. Also significant\, and unchanging\, is the fact that each portrait is made with an 8 x 10″ view camera on a tripod and is captured on a black-and-white film negative. This book celebrates the 40th anniversary of the series\, featuring luminous tri-tone reproductions of all 40 portraits.

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of Fifty Shrinks with author Sebastian Zimermann
DESCRIPTION:  \nIn his groundbreaking new book\, Fifty Shrinks\, psychiatrist and photographer Sebastian Zimmermann presents a fascinating\, first of its kind\, photographic survey of the current field of psychiatry and psychology through penetrating portraits of fifty therapists all taken in the most sacred of places – the private office where they see their patients. Ranging from luminaries to newly minted analysts\, Zimmermann’s subjects hail from widely different orientations that collectively reveal the diversity of approaches to therapeutic practice today. \nZimmermann’s photographs in Fifty Shrinks capture the feeling of the rooms in which a powerful process occurs; and through the interviews we begin to understand why the room looks the way it does. It is a glimpse into both the private spaces we rarely see and the minds of the healers who work there. Fifty Shrinks takes one on a profound journey that inspires belief in the possibility for positive change in human behavior and understanding.

SUMMARY:NYC Launch of Older and Wiser with author Dag Ahlander
DESCRIPTION:Older and Wiser! is the inspiring new sequel to Older and Happier! \, Dag Sebastian Ahlander’s joyful guide to turning retirement into a time of self-exploration. For many men\, the years after sixty-five become the best of their lives—and with good reason. The office is left behind\, the children have grown up\, and you’re healthy\, alert\, and free to do what you want. Still\, as with any big life change\, you may be looking for some words of advice and hope. Older and Wiser! reflects on the big things in life and the little ones\, and contains practical suggestions as well as reflections on aging from the world’s greatest philosophers\, writers\, and thinkers. With thoughts like “You’re too old to die young\,” “You’ve retired from your job\, not from life\,” and “Be careful when you spend more time at the pharmacy than at the wine store\,” Mr. Ahlander guides older gentlemen along the golden years of retirement. Baby boomers are again defining a new age group\, just as they once invented the modern understanding of the teenager. Now\, they’re proving to the world that old age will have to wait. This is your time now—to accomplish what you’ve always dreamed of\, to do the things you like best. Live as you want to be remembered\, and enjoy the journey.

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of Papa is a Poet with Natalie Bober
DESCRIPTION:When Robert Frost was a child\, his family thought he would grow up to be a baseball player. Instead\, he became a poet. His life on a farm in New Hampshire inspired him to write “poetry that talked\,” and today he is famous for his vivid descriptions of the rural life he loved so much. There was a time\, though\, when Frost had to struggle to get his poetry published. Told from the point of view of Lesley\, Robert Frost’s oldest daughter\, this is the story of how a lover of language found his voice.

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of Bill Doyle's new early reader Invasion of the Junkyard Hog
DESCRIPTION:Following Attack of the Shark-Headed Zombie and Stampede of the Supermarket Slugs is Bill Doyle’s third tale of monsters and magic.\nMr. Cigam has a new job for Keats and Henry—a job working for his mixed-up stepsisters\, Lillian and Beatrice.

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of Wendy Aronsson's debut Refeathering the Empty Nest
DESCRIPTION:PLEASE NOTE: This event was moved from April 16 to April 30. \nMany parents have demonstrated a desire to parent skillfully and artfully. They read the latest child development and parenting books\, configure their schedules to accommodate the social and educational lives of their children\, and focus like lasers on their childrens’ well-being. Many have made an enormous emotional and financial investment in raising their children. But children grow up\, they move out\, they create their own lives and their own homes. The role of the parent changes\, diminishes\, and evolves. \n\nThe life phase that begins in preparation for an “empty nest” and continues until parents re-feather the nest has no official name\, yet it represents a profound shift from the rigors of daily parenting to a period of self-reflection and reorientation. Here\, Wendy Aronsson centers on that experience\, capturing the realities of the emotions and life changes that come on gradually\, and sometimes proceed in fits and starts. \nRefeathering the Empty Nest is for any parent preparing for the departure from of home of their youngest child. It is for those who wish to move forward productively\, both in their new parenting role and in their roles as spouse\, employee\, friend\, neighbor\, and self. Using real stories throughout\, Aronsson shows how people have managed these changes\, how they’ve reignited the passion in their marriages or moved on from bad matches\, how they’ve rediscovered old interests and talents\, and how they’ve reinvented their relationships with their children as well. These stories provide hope and guidance to anyone whose nest is about to empty as well as those whose nests already are.

SUMMARY:Celebrate the publication of Tori Corn's latest children's picture book Dixie Wants an Allergy
DESCRIPTION:It’s Dixie’s first day of school\, and some of her classmates are sharing details about their various allergies. Bridget tells of her wheat allergy and how she gets to order a special meal from restaurants. Dixie thinks that must be a really special meal! And Charlie had to be rushed to the hospital in an ambulance once due to his dairy allergy. Dixie thinks that must have been thrilling! Even Hannah gets to wear a fashionable bracelet due to her peanut allergy. Dixie races home and begins to eagerly search for the slightest sign of an allergy. After many failed attempts\, Dixie discovers that she is allergic to something after all. But is getting what you wish for actually as exciting as it once appeared? \nDixie Wants an Allergy provides a comical and engaging approach for children who are beginning to learn about and who are coping with allergies—and who also have trouble finding what makes them unique. Corn’s playful text and Cote’s inviting illustrations encourage children to accept those with differences while learning that wanting what others have is not always a good idea. \nPlease note that illustrator Nancy Cote will be raffling off an original piece of art from the book\,matted  and framed!  \nFor every purchased copy of Dixie\, the customer can have their name entered in a raffle which will be drawn at the end of the night.
