Alberta Author, Lynne Harley bikes across Canada with her new book in support of Mental Health!!
Camrose author, Lynne Harley is biking across Canada to promote her newest book, What If You Could in support of mental health with a substantial goal of $100,000 to be raised and donated to Jack.org, an organization whose testament is to improve youth mental health outcomes in their communities.
Lynne’s biking journey began from Pike Lake Provincial Park on Father’s Day and it will ultimately take her through Saskatchewan, Winnipeg Manitoba, Thunder Bay Ontario, and then completing in Montreal in September. The book, What If You Could is published by Shadowpaw Press and tour donations are being given to Jack.org through the following link: http://jack.org/whatifyoucouldtour
DESCRIPTION:
Bored with hanging around on a branch, munching leaves, a little caterpillar has a big dream of a wonderful future of flying and twirling in the sun and enjoying nectar from beautiful flowers.
But which inner voice should he listen to? The kind voice that encourages him to believe in his dreams, or the mean one that warns him against change and tells him to give up on a brighter future?
This little caterpillar’s inspirational story of transformation is everyone’s story. We all have to decide which inner voice to listen to whenever we prepare to leave our comfort zone, spread our wings, and fly.
Lynne Harley’s life work, spanning forty years as a social worker and transformational life coach, has been to empower individuals to believe in themselves and to give credence to the still, small voice of truth that is within all of us.
A portion of all sales will be donated to Jack.org, Canada’s only charity training and empowering young leaders to revolutionize mental health.
Praise for What If You Could?
“This endearing children’s story, What If You Could?, tells the tale of a “thinking” caterpillar who has a dream, and his metamorphosis into a butterfly. Readers of all ages will relate to the voices that speak to the caterpillar as he desires more, dreams big, and is getting ready to leave behind what has been familiar. This book provides parents and educators with valuable teachings and tools. Learning to listen to, and trust the internal voice that is kind and loving, our voice of intuition; and the power of believing and living into one’s dreams. Lynne Harley shares her gifts in the world as a Transformational Life Coach and Speaker, and now with this beautifully inspired children’s book, a tale of transformation for all.” – Mary Morrissey, founder of the Brave Thinking Institute, Internationally best-selling author of No Less Than Greatness and Building Your Field of Dreams, which became a PBS special
“What If You Could? Is a wonderful book for children, introducing them to the magic of dreaming big by re-telling, in a very sweet way, the oft-told story of the caterpillar becoming a butterfly. The youngest among us can learn the oldest of lessons through this time-honoured tale that can bring new awareness to a new generation when shared with the easy-to-understand, yet imaginative approach found here. This is a tale sure to generate questions, and open the door for every loving parent’s answer, about how the spiritual power of Belief works. – Neale Donald Walsch, internationally bestselling author of the book series Conversations With God, spiritual teacher, and founder of The Re-Creation Foundation.
ABOUT JACK.ORG:
Jack.org is the only charity in Canada that partners with young leaders in every province and territory to improve youth mental health outcomes in their communities. Our reasons are clear:
Suicide remains the leading health-related cause of death for young people, accounting for 25% of youth deaths, and most young people still don’t get the support they need when they’re struggling with their mental health. The pandemic has only exacerbated this emergency, with youth across the country consistently at higher risk of experiencing poor mental health than any other age group.
Our work aims to enhance young people’s ability to recognize struggle in both themselves and their peers, seek out appropriate mental health support and resources, and advocate for systems that are better able to meet the needs of young people. Our goal is to ensure that every young person in the country gets the help they deserve.

Whose Job is it Exactly to Keep my Mom Happy?
Tommy Schnurmacher’s memoir details the foibles of his tumultuous relationship with his Holocaust survivor Mom who looked like Elizabeth Taylor and sounded like Zsa Zsa Gabor!
Tommy Schnurmacher has written a book that could change your life. It changed his.
As a writer, Montreal media icon Schnurmacher is an intense force of nature, a seismic swell of visceral empathy, laser-sharp wit and courageous self-analysis.
Now meet Olga. Auschwitz prisoner A-25057, aka Mom, A fearless, dramatic and unpredictable maverick. An original.
Exposing the souls of a family for all to see, Make-up Tips from Auschwitz is an addictive page-turner. Schnurmacher’s voice resonates with a lyrical cadence all his own and an unsettling candor reminiscent of humorist David Sedaris and essayist Augusten Burroughs.
Like the Oscar-winning film, Life is Beautiful, Schnurmacher revisits the Holocaust with rays of light in the darkness.
Sparkling with chutzpah and charm, this is a story of a family’s cultural collision and delightful dysfunction. With the growing pains of Shtisel, the earthiness of The Simpsons and the fierce family loyalty of The Sopranos, these newcomers from Hungary defy authority. They figured out early on that conventional values were not enough. It was their moxie that allowed them to succeed
Schmooze with the passing parade that includes John Lennon, Elizabeth Taylor and Crystal Nacht. You will laugh out loud as you meet a cast of supporting characters who redefine eccentric: the 50-minute therapist, the psychic rabbi and a superstitious hypochondriac named Paris.
Once you get to know these mutineers from the mainstream, you will want to organize an intervention. Or at least a Passover Seder.
Born in Budapest, Tommy Schnurmacher is a child of Holocaust survivors. An award-winning broadcaster and political pundit, he was the host of a three-hour daily talk show for more than twenty years on CJAD radio in Montreal.

We look forward to the coverage!
Ever since leaving Salvation and escaping the quarry, things had got better and better for Callie and the rest of the community.
But now a single afternoon has turned their world upside down.
The clock is ticking to save one of their own, and a simple plan becomes a foreboding quest.
They’re about to learn just how much the world has changed. They’re about to learn that they didn’t know what real fear was.
New friends, old foes and a treacherous journey mean not everyone will make it home.
If they get through today, none of their lives will be the same again.

“Wow! What a very informative book. While I’m no longer a single mom, but the wisdom you present in your book, definitely would’ve come in handy when I was mothering my first-born son. I have since married and my son is a 23-year-old now, and I have three more sons with my husband. I hate I didn’t try harder to put more time and effort into providing a strong financial plan for him. I guess, the ROSE in this is that I can always start now. What a blessing this book will be to not only single mothers but mothers in general. It’s not easy, but your book paves the way to making motherhood bearable, but more importantly, enjoyable!” Morshe Araujo, MD

Many of us would like to see God but can’t find Him!
Speaking directly to the hearts of ordinary people. Nathans’s direction points to God’s presence in our everyday lives and magnifies a God of the common places. It focuses on an omnipotent Deity who chooses to make Himself known within each day’s events.
With a keen eye for comforting uncomfortable people and a passion for magnifying God, Nathan’s stories flow with life and reverberate with a single, compelling message—God came near and dwelt among us. Nathan has a passion for magnifying God with his stories and messages in Christ at the Coffee Shop.
Ingram points out that although many of us would like to see God we are unable to find Him, believing He only expresses Himself through blinding insights or peak experiences of some sort. However, the book’s message is that if we must travel to the mountaintops to see God, most of us will miss Him. This book reaches out with clarity that He is near.

Holden Collier hates superheroes. Unfortunately, he is one. Selfish, crass and intentionally anti-social, Holden avoids people at all costs until he is found by a clandestine group of hero collectors called “the syndicate”, who pit individuals like Holden against a cast of supervillains, all for sport. But there is an escape—an enigmatic figure called the lantern, who has the power to grant Holden his release from the syndicate. However, the freedom that the lantern offers is not what Holden expects. In reality, it’s much, much worse.
Part Time Superhero is a raunchy, mind-bending tale featuring a foul-mouthed, fourth-wall-breaking antihero, several “what the…?” twists and just a smidge of good, old-fashioned graphic violence. The book is in the same vein as the Deadpool movies and finishes with an Inception-style ending that will make the reader re-examine everything they thought they knew. Fans of The Reckoners series by Brandon Sanderson as well as superhero and comic book fans will enjoy this new, fast-paced novel. Chances are, you’ll read it all in one sitting!
