It began when author and sociologist Jan Yager's oldest son was filling out his college applications and she realized he would soon be graduating from high school and leaving home.She wanted to send him off with her key advice and that wish grew into ROAD SIGN ON LIFE'S JOURNEY: Sayings and Insights to Help You Find Your Way, a gem of a book containing 258 perceptive and astute insights that are witty and poignant. The book is based on Dr. Yager's decades of research and knowledge, culminating in such books as WHEN FRIENDSHIP HURTS (Simon & Schuster/Fireside) and CREATIVE TIME MANAGEMENT FOR THE NEW MILLENNIUM (Hannacroix Creek Books), college teaching, and her life experiences as a mother, wife, friend, extended family member, and world traveler. Featured in the DALLAS MORNING NEWS, there's even a place in the back for teachers or loved ones to write their own sayings or advice. There is also a thoughtful section on books that have been meaningful to the reader as well as a wish list of books and plays that still need to be read. "Although our bookstore staff has always recommended YAY YOU [BY Sandra Boynton] for graduate gifts, we are now going to be recommending this book, because of its practicality. We rated it five hearts." (Heartlandreviews.com-Bob Spear) MORE PRAISE FOR ROAD SIGNS ON LIFE'S JOURNEY:"Life's roadmap made simple...just what we all need!"
