Boston, MA January 19, 2004 -- Americans, hit daily with bad news, want to hear something good - about themselves, their families, their communities and their country. In "Ribbons of Highway: A Mother-Child Journey Across America" (2004, Booklocker.com, ISBN 1-59113-453-6), author Lori Hein takes readers on a post- 9/11 road trip through the country, celebrating whats strong, hopeful and positive about this remarkable nation. The book is an upbeat antidote to the difficult pills people have become used to swallowing with the daily news, and an energizing breath of fresh air.
The summer after September 11, the globetrotting author and her two children traveled 12,000 miles of American back roads and byways, discovering their own countrys majesty and humanity. They journeyed through hundreds of downtowns and proud, quiet places, and found the nation united, resilient and resolved to face the challenges of the post-9/11 world. As they traveled, they also explored the love that binds a mother and her two growing children to one another.
"Ribbons of Highway: A Mother-Child Journey Across America" became a Booklocker.com Print Best Seller within a month of its publication. Reader comments include "How I am enjoying the journey," "A great read," "Comments and observations are very much on target," "The writing is lovely and evokes all the sights and sounds of the journey," "Wonderful. Took me back to many places," "I opened the book, planning to read the introduction, and found I couldnt put it down," "People like (the author) help me keep my dreams alive, and for that I am grateful. And books like this help keep my hopes high to continue my familys quest to learn more about the planet we call home," "Its just so great. I started reading, and kept the kids waiting for their breakfast," "I hope (the author) is working on another," "(The author) has done us proud."
