This whimsical picture book for Baby Boomers has received a Midwest Book Award and an Independent Publishers Gold Award. Im New at Being Old is a picture book for women. Offering wit, whimsy and vibrantly fanciful art, Lucy Rose Fischer captures the essence of what it feels like to be new at being old. At first, she wonders: Is she ready for this journey toward an alien universe ? She frets about what might happen to her--the breakdown of movable parts and, possibly, the unraveling of my mind. But she also celebrates her vitality, creativity, and richness of years. She comes to understand that she is joining a burgeoning sisterhood and that her new life is just beginning. Women of the Baby Boom generation will recognize themselves in Im New at Being Old and draw inspiration and courage from this honest and engaging book.
