I emailed David Albert, the author of And The Skylark Sings With Me to let him know how much I’d gotten out of reading his book and to thank him for his inspirational, challenging and thought provoking read. I had an email back from him today to thank me for my message, to let me know that his older daughter is now 19 and about to graduate from university, his younger daughter is 17 and about to head off to uni and he sent me a couple of attachments – one a photo of his younger daughter, aged 16, in Egypt and a piece of writing about where they are now in their life journey.
I won’t recreate it here, but if anyone has read the book or is interested I’ll happily email it to you. What an amazing, inspiring family they are. 🙂
I really want to read that. Library doesn’t have it though and I’ve been buying just a few too many books lately. Might do next month or something!
