Australian author Holly Ringland ' The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart'. Flowers, fire, and fairy tales are the elements that will forever shape nine-year-old Alice Hart's life, in The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart, the international bestseller by Holly Ringland. Alice Hart lives in isolation by the sea, where her mother's enchanting flowers and their hidden messages shelter her from the dark moods of her father. When tragedy changes her life irrevocably, nine-year-old Alice goes to live with the grandmother she never knew existed, on a native flower farm that gives refuge to women who, like Alice, are lost or broken. In the Victorian tradition, every flower has a meaning and, as she settles into her new life, Alice uses this language of flowers to say the things that are too hard to speak. As she grows older, though, family secrecy, a devastating betrayal, and a man who's not all he seems to combine to make Alice realise there are some stories that flowers alone cannot tell. If she is to have the freedom she craves, she must find the courage to possess the most powerful story she knows: her own. If you can do this, you must. And I believe you can. I believe you can stop betraying yourself and I believe you can overcome the thing that is breaking you and I believe you can learn to love yourself better than anyone ever has and I believe in the dreams you've never told anyone and I believe in another try and another and another. So, please. Please stop telling yourself that this life isn't for you - this bigger life. We need you. You need you. And if you can do this (and you can) You must. -Laura McKowen- thismonth's book
thismonth's quote
The women whom I love and admire for their strength and grace did not get that way because shit worked out. They got that way because shit went wrong., and they handled it. They handled it in a thousand different ways on a thousand
different days, but they handled it. These women are my superheroes. -Elizabeth Gilbert-
