The timing is fantastic to showcase these books by Bill Zimmerman today: “Lunchbox Letters”, “Laptop Letters”, and “Hummingbird Joy – A Book of All the Things That Make You Happy”.
They provide such “Words of Encouragement” and help foster gratitude.
It was a delight to email with Bill and discover Hummingbird Joy, I had been focused on the two books to present here – so we now have three! Photos of the covers of the books shown today are posted with permission.
