Lillian's Flying School
by Nancy Lammers Lillian Brown, an ordinary, responsible single parent, is overwhelmed with the escalating demands of her job and the expectations of her adult daughter. After an especially stressful day, she dreams she can fly. But when the dream becomes a reality, and she begins teaching the art of flying to others, unexpected and unsettling events occur that affect the entire small town of Green Valley. Praise for Lillian's Flying School "Lillian’s Flying School is a fun and inspiring invitation to explore life’s possibilities at every age. We all have dreams that we can fly; but, perhaps have not considered how others might feel if we actually do! When we dare to follow our deepest longings – resistance can come from unexpected directions. Lillian’s tenacity teaches us that when we live with wonder and curiosity: we teach others, as well as ourselves, the beauty and power of living our best lives." -Laurie Walker, Mindfulness Instructor, Founder and Blogger @NamasteConnections "When Lillian learns to fly, she generously wants to share her newfound ability with others, and so she begins a flying school. But some people in her community don't think people should be taught to fly. This story is a lovely and engaging allegory for what life can be like if you reach for what seems impossible and share your gifts with others." -Lisa Williams Kline, author of The Ruby Mirror, One Week of You and other books |
