Book Description
Winner at the 2011 Living Now Book Awards. A touching and sensitive story for all ages about accepting differences and dealing with the loss of a loved one. On a spring night, under the light of the full moon, a little lamb was born. Molly, her mother, decided to call him Lambkin. Lambkin was a very special sheep, and as time passed, it became more apparent that he was nothing like the other lambs. While his friends were dressed with white, long wool, the little one was covered with a small, fluffy cloud. Lambkin was a white cloud, sometimes cloudy, sometimes even a stormy one! Without a doubt, Lambkin was a very special sheep, and that was why it was more difficult for him to relate to others. He wasn't cut out for jumping fences and helping children fall asleep—what he liked the most was being in nature. But like the clouds, Lambkin soon realized that his place was in the sky.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
Longlisted for the National Book Award for Fiction: Blending domestic thriller and psychological horror, this compelling page-turner follows a mother fleeing her estranged husband. Lydia Millet’s previous work has been shortlisted for the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Critics Circle Award, and the Los Angeles Times Book Prize. Likewise greeted with rapturous praise, Sweet Lamb of Heaven is a first-person account of a young mother, Anna, fleeing her cold and unfaithful husband, a businessman who’s just launched his first campaign for political office. When Ned chases Anna and their six-year-old daughter from Alaska to Maine, the two go into hiding in a run-down motel on the coast. But the longer they stay, the less the guests in the dingy motel look like typical tourists—and the less Ned resembles a typical candidate. As his pursuit of Anna and their child moves from threatening to criminal, Ned begins to alter his wife’s world in ways she never could have imagined. A double-edged and satisfying story with a strong female protagonist, a thrilling plot, and a creeping sense of the apocalyptic, Sweet Lamb of Heaven builds to a shattering ending with profound implications for its characters—and for all of us.
