holiday gifts

Your purchasing power is valuable, so be sure to shop with a conscience this holiday season. We have tons of ideas for gifts that give back and that can’t be found at every store in the mall. While you’re buying for everyone else, you’ll want to make your own wish list, too!

Summertime, and the reading is easy! We’ve got lots for you to read on the site, along with some great book suggestions. So grab a chaise lounge, your sunglasses and an iced drink — and don’t forget the sunscreen because we bet you won’t be getting up for a while!

Dads

They’re the first men in our lives and they often set the tone for our future loves. They teach us how to throw a ball, change a tire, ride a bike. If we’re lucky, they also teach us that we can do anything.

Mama Africa

lois — Mon, 06 Jun 2011 09:00:54 +0000

On the top of our bucket list lies a journey to Africa. Once referred to as The Dark Continent, it is filled with mystery and lit up by the joyful faces of its people. How can you not want to visit a place people consider The Motherland and call “Mama?” We are honored to pay homage with tributes from some top writers and everyday people who have been touched by this amazing land. We hope to be among them one day.

You know how we feel about reading, so we’re going to intersperse this theme among our other ones all summer long. We have tons of suggestions to pack along for your vacation, curl up with in your backyard or load up on your Kindle, and we’re talking to lots of authors you should get to know better. Whenever we present this theme, it means we’re featuring a couple of top ones that week so get out your pens and paper, and call your book club together! And don’t forget to let us know what you’re reading!
