A Trio of Traveling Tales (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781505430523)

Some journeys are measured in city blocks, and some can only be measured by how they change your life. In this new collection in the "Trio Tales Series" the stories are focused on journeys, large and small, which take unexpected turns or which lead to unanticipated places. In "The Unexpected Path" little seven year old Ann thinks she knows best and takes an alternate route to travel the block and a half to school in the middle of a harsh mid-western winter. It all goes well, until she gets stuck in the snow. In "The Empire Builder" a young woman leaves her home and family to journey to a University thousands of miles away. Taking the train from Seattle to Chicago, and then on to central Indiana, she has three days on her own to contemplate this decision to cross half a continent. In "Lawrence Street" a road that was once traveled every single day is revisited 40 years later - "Things are the same on Lawrence Street, but they are different too. The bones of familiarity are there, clear and comforting, but sometimes dressed in garments that do not seem as familiar."
