Five Book Friday: In Memoriam
(0 comment)
Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Being Santa Claus What I Learned about the True Meaning of Christmas
by
Sal Lizard, Jonathan Lane

, January 01, 2013
This book and this man are wonderful! I read this sometime before Christmas, so it really got me into the holiday spirit. Mr. Lizard has such a deep respect for his young (and not so young) admirers. Over the years he has developed some very insightful and respectful answers to the many and varied questions children ask. Every child and every question are very important to him and taken seriously. He brings great dignity and love to his role and really embodies the true spirit of Christmas. No adult should miss reading this short book, no matter the time of year.

Veganist Lose Weight Get Healthy Change the World
by
Kathy Freston

, August 04, 2012
I have been wanting to go vegan for some time, but just hadn't quite done it. Kathy's book really made the difference; all I had to do was drop eggs and salmon from my life. Her gentle but persuasive approach to vegan living was just what I needed. Each of her chapters are called promises, each guaranteed to catch your attention ("Your Body Will Find and Maintain Its Ideal Weight--Effortlessly" ; "You Will Radically Reduce Your Carbon Footprint and Do the Single Best Thing You Can Do for the Environment"). Each is filled with information to help you understand what veganism can do for you and your health and for the planet. She gives great advice on how to start (lean into a plant-based diet at your own pace). Her joy and enthusiasm is so contagious! All this from a lovely Southern lady who used to love chicken-fried steak and barbecued ribs.
