Eddie Winston sucht die Liebe
Und dann triffst du den einen Menschen, auf den es sich zu warten lohnt. Manchmal auch ein ganzes Leben lang.Als echter Gentleman und unverbesserlicher Romantiker verbringt der 90-jährige Eddie seine Tage als Freiwilliger in einem Wohltätigkeitsladen, wo er die Spenden sortiert. Doch manches bewahrt Eddie auf wie einen kostbaren Schatz. Alte, zerfledderte Briefe. Den weichen Schal, in dem noch ein letzter Hauch vom Parfüm der Trägerin hängt. Die bekritzelten Chucks mit den zwei Initialen. Dinge, bei denen Eddie spürt, dass sie für irgendjemand da draußen noch eine Bedeutung haben. Eines Tages trifft Eddie in dem Laden auf Bella, die gerade die Liebe ihres Lebens verloren hat. Die beiden freunden sich an und als Bella erfährt, dass Eddie seinen ersten Kuss noch vor sich hat, setzt sie alles daran, dass er seine große Liebe wiederfindet. Wird Eddie nach all den Jahren endlich die Frau küssen, auf die er sein ganzes Leben lang gewartet hat?Eine ergreifende Geschichte darüber, wie wichtig es ist Freundlichkeit im Herzen zu tragen und die uns daran erinnert, dass manche Menschen immer einen Platz in unserem Leben haben werden.'Dieses Buch erinnert uns daran, dass es nie zu spät ist, sein Herz für andere zu öffnen.'

Farben, die das Leben malt
Manchmal ist es nicht so wichtig, was du im Leben erreichst, sondern mit wem du es teilst ...Das Leben ist kurz. Niemand weiß das besser als die siebzehnjährige Lenni. Sie leidet an einer unheilbaren Krankheit, die ihr nicht mehr viel Zeit lässt. Was soll sie mit gleichaltrigen Freunden, die ihr ganzes Leben noch vor sich haben? Was soll sie anfangen mit der ihr verbleibenden Zeit, wenn sie noch so viele Fragen hat, die das Leben ihr nie beantworten wird?In einem Malkurs im Krankenhaus trifft sie auf Margot: dreiundachtzig, voller Lebenserfahrung, Witz und Widerspenstigkeit. Margot weiß, wie es ist, im letzten Kapitel des Lebens angekommen zu sein. Als sie entdecken, dass sie zusammen genau einhundert Jahre gelebt haben, fassen sie einen Plan: sie wollen gemeinsam Bilder malen - für jedes ihrer hundert Jahre eins. Um all die kostbaren Momente voller Liebe, Lachen und Weinen festzuhalten, die das Leben bilden. Während sie sich über Tuschkasten und Pastellkreiden ihre Erinnerungen erzählen, wächst zwischen den beiden ungleichen Frauen eine tiefe Freundschaft - und der Mut, sich noch einmal vollends ins Leben zu stürzen. Ein unvergessliches Buch, das mit Anmut, Weisheit und ganz viel Herz davon erzählt, worauf es im Leben wirklich ankommt.'Bezaubernd und zu Tränen rührend. Diese Geschichte wird man so schnell nicht vergessen.' ElleDieses Buch ist bereits im Hardcover unter dem Titel 'Die hundert Jahre von Lenni und Margot' erschienen.
