The innocence of childhood is deftly evoked in a bold girls search for the hardest kind of gift for her father, peace and quiet and a changed life to boot.

Burt Rashbaum, author Becoming an American and Tears For My Mother Peggy Warren has created a tender, heart-warming, poignant book for the young reader, as well as a light-hearted, entertaining read for any agewith an empowering message for parents to evaluate the precious moments with their family. Alexandra Delis-Abrams Phd, author of Attitudes, Beliefs and Choices The journey into the soul of this book begins with a child searching for the perfect gift to give to her father. We soon discover that this is the yearning of the child in each of us: to give the perfect gift to ourselves, and to others. How shall we give what we value most, not just once, but moment by moment? Its a treasure worth sharing! Alexia Parks, author of Hardwired 10 Traits, Chairman 56percent.org How quickly the pages turn in Peggy Warrens Gathering Peace.
