Synopsis

A beautiful and uplifting collection of heartfelt and soothing messages that provide compassion and connection for everyone feeling overwhelmed in their lives.

All of This is for You is balm for anyone feeling lost and detached from today’s confusing, hectic world. In her heartfelt notes,  Ruby Jones reminds us that even when times are tough, it remains important to be kind and gentle with ourselves and those around us.Jones received worldwide recognition after she posted an illustration of two women—one of them a Muslim wearing a hijab—embracing after the 2019 Christchurch terrorist attacks. The image was accompanied by an extraordinary message of empathy and understanding: ""This is your home and you should have been safe here."" A beacon of hope and kindness, All of This is for You is for every one of us, because no matter the individual issue—whether it’s self-image, identity, depression, grief, or anxiety—we all struggle with challenges. Jones's soothing insights are a breath of fresh air during tough times, and a reminder of humanity's inherent and enduring goodness.

Ich lese sehr gerne solche kleinen Bücher, die etwas Positives, mutmachendes und inspiriertes haben. Angereichert wird dies dann durch Fotografien oder Zeichnungen, welche die Sprüche, Verse etc. untermauern. Und so kam ich um All das ist für dich nicht herum. Durch das feste und dicke Cover ist das......more

"Nothing can prepare us for people leaving early. Grief will come in waves. But the waves will subside and the sun will rise". The illustrations in this book was the author's immediate response to the terror attacks at two mosques in Christchurch, so you can expect nothing biased whatsoever in it an......more

Meine Meinung Klein aber Oho trifft es hier meiner Meinung nach fast am besten. Dieses kleine Buch versteckt so viel Gefühl, so viele Hoffnungen, so viele gute Worte, dass man diese gar nicht alle auf einmal erfassen kann. Es ist ein Buch für gute und schlechte Tage. Es ist ein Buch, das man immer wie......more
