This is the new jacket for Ruby Holler.
In the book, Ruby Holler represents a place
of great natural beauty
and comfort
and safety
Do you have a Ruby-Holler-kind of place -
somewhere that represents
beauty, comfort and safety
for you?
Smoky Mountains. My heart's home
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely, but it's also an easy answer - my home. I love our house. When I come home from vacation my husband laughs at the boys and me. We greet the house and hug the walls. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is a gorgeous cover! It represents the book very well.
ReplyDeleteEach time I have all my kids and my hubby with me, when we're all together, life becomes a Ruby Holler, no matter where I am..
ReplyDeleteNo doubt about it, in the shadow of the Tetons.
ReplyDeleteI agree, this cover is perfect for what you have written. As for Ruby Holler, I think we live there.
ReplyDeleteI love this cover, Sharon. My Ruby Holler would be Lake Superior's North Shore and the rocks and trails of Rib Mountain State Park in Wisconsin. Where is yours?
ReplyDeleteLib. Jewel: I have several Ruby Hollers - the main one is where I live, on a lake in western NY, but I also return to 'ruby hollers' in Switzerland and England. But also, like Malyss, when my family is all together, wherever that is, 'life becomes a Ruby Holler.'
ReplyDelete... my backyard, in summer.
ReplyDeleteI love that your Ruby Holler can be where your family is together! That happens to me sometimes, too.

ReplyDeleteMy mom's dining room table. That's where we do all of our "visiting" and Scrabble playing. Beauty, comfort, safety. . . all covered whenever Mom's around.
ReplyDeleteMy Ruby Holler is my imagination. Sorta. That's where I can recreate the house where I grew up, my mom and dad, my grandma, everybody together. We'd be sitting around the table eating a great big bowl of mostaccioli. Everyone would be talking at the same time. Buckey, our beagle, would be begging for a meatball. Uh-huh, something like that.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry I missed this post. I was actually in my Ruby Holler place in a small town in NH. Small house, along a mountain stream with a waterfall, mountain ranges on two sides....and no Internet access...
ReplyDeleteI love this new cover.
I love this book. The new cover is beautiful, but I still love the old cover too. My Ruby Holler used to be my Grandmother's front porch before she died, but in my heart, I still visit her there.
