My Peaceful Forest : Reflections on Life in Pacific Grove
by Elaine Breen
Category: Pacific Grove (Calif.)

Erma Bombeck and Elaine Breen have more in common than their initials. If you enjoyed Erma, you'll find Elaine delightful. Elaine's humorous and sometimes irreverent reflections on her life in a small coastal town in California, as a mother of eight children, and as a woman in her 70's who wears a lot of purple, will surprise and entertain you. An exciting and refreshing new voice! It is Elaine's particular world view -- seeing normal day-to-day events with a twist, humor, and irony -- that brings life into her writing. This book is a treat that will lighten your heart and remind you not to take life too seriously.
