Beginning: Encouragement at the Start of Something New Warren Hanson First Printing edition

Our lives are filled with beginnings.

A wedding. A birth. A graduation. A new job. Retirement. Starting a diet. Stopping smoking. Losing someone we love. Being single again. The dawn of each new day.

At times like these, when we may need encouragement or deserve congratulations, there is joy in knowing that "This is the Beginning!"

Warren Hanson is the author and illustrator of such well-known books as "The Next Place" and "Older Love." He has illustrated Tom Hegg's beloved "Christmas Tea" and "Peef" books, as well as Richard Jorgensen's "Reading With Dad," and many more.

With "Beginning," Warren Hanson brings us a message of encouragement at the start of something new. It is a message all of us will find meaningful many times over.
