Customer Reviews

You'll Embrace Aging

Never before has a book so richly impacted my perspective. Suzanne Snyder Jacobson's collection of photographs accompanied by quotes from her senior subjects is a grand inspiration. It's impossible to put the book down and refrain from gifting it to others. The images and messages in this small hard cover gift book share incredible wisdom and insight in a way that only the elderly can, with lightness, wit and humor.

Inspiration for (all) the ages

A wonderfully inspiring and delightful book. How rare it is that we think of the very elderly as being as alive and vital and passionate as the young. Full of wit and perspective and valuable advice on how to age with grace and approach death with wisdom. Recommended reading for everyone, from childhood up.
