Böcker av Linda Lundquist

Follow the adventures of Corky the Wonderdog. Corky teaches her family lessons about life, trust, and believing in the impossible. This is a story for all ages, of a Labrador Retriever whose adventures led her to teach her life purposes. Her owner, after carrying the story in her heart for over 20 years, finished the book next to the healing waters of Lake Superior in 2020. Corky's message of HOPE was meant to be published during these times.Linda Lundquist was a special education teacher for 33 years. One of her favorite parts of each day was reading aloud to her students. As she did, she thought and thought about the books that she herself must write and publish someday. And she wondered: Which should be first?Beginning in 2018, she received three unmistakable clues. That summer along the shore of Lake Superior in Duluth, Minnesota, she dashed back to her car when a blinding rainstorm fell. Oddly, though no one was visible anywhere on the beach, in front of her car there now sat a red truck. Its license plate read "Corky." The next summer, she pulled into the same parking lot at the same beach, and there, in the same space, sat another red truck. She started to work on her story about Corky and she moved to Duluth in the fall of 2019. Finally, in May of 2020 having moved back to Minneapolis, she parked her car one day. Across the street she spotted a red truck with "Corky's" painted on its door. She knew editing and publishing the book was an absolute priority now.It felt exactly right to Linda to be writing her beloved Corky's story, a story of hope, during the difficult year that 2020 was for us all. Having also been a massage therapist working with many modalities for 25 years, she knew how important it is to have hope everyday of our lives. Having carried it her heart for 20 years, she finished writing it in 2020, along the shore of Lake Superior.Do you carry your own story of hope? Does Corky's story give you hope? Linda would love to hear from you. HopeLessons25@gmail.com
