Room One
Ted Hammond learns that in a very small town, there's no such thing as an isolated event. And the solution of one mystery is often the beginning of another. Ted Hammond loves a good mystery, and in the spring of his fifth-grade year, he's working on a big one. How can his school in the little town of Plattsford stay open next year if there are going to be only five students? Out here on the Great Plains in western Nebraska, everyone understands that if you lose the school, you lose the town. But the mystery that has Ted's full attention at the moment is about that face, the face he sees in the upper window of the Andersons' house as he rides past on his paper route. The Andersons moved away two years ago, and their old farmhouse is empty, boarded up tight. At least it's supposed to be. A shrinking school in a dying town. A face in the window of an empty house. At first these facts don't seem to be related. But...

Life Finds Its Way
Life Finds Its Way is a fascinating account of Nandini Kapadia's close association with Sabyasachi Guha. Her lifelong passionate interest in spirituality as well as her many years as a devotee of Ramana Maharshi led Nandini to the writings of that most radical sage of the 20thCentury, the late U.G. Krishnamurti. In no time, she learned of the existence of his close friend Guha, who as fate would have it, lived only a few miles from her home. The two first met in my apartment in 2013 and since then I have personally witnessed Nandini's transformation and blossoming connection to Guha. Her detailed accounts of their conversations, intimate interactions and impressions which led her to travel with him extensively across continents make for engrossing reading. Her self-analysis is unflinchingly honest and her observations about the people she meets and the places she visits are remarkably astute. A gifted writer and seeker, Nandini's insightful words cannot but help inspire a deeper interest in Guha's radical approach to spirituality and life. - Julie Thayer Author of Travels with U.G.
