There is something remarkable about everyday life. It is complex and layered, full of highs and lows. The unexpected can happen in a heartbeat. But with a little courage in your pocket and an open heart, you can find yourself in the middle of something wonderful. In this book, Mary Alexandra Stiefvater takes a poetic look at our daily life, at all that we are and what we sometimes give up to continue moving forward. The journey is never easy but it does deserve to be celebrated. After all, we are all extraordinary!
