Author teaches others the Power of "I Can"

The Land of I Can, An Adventure in Life by Susan Gilbert

Review by Antoinette Botsford, editor, The Napra ReView

---

Subtly airbrushed pastel illustrations accompany spare but strategically placed text in this little handbook of encouragement. Gilbert reminds us that we begin shaping our dreams from where we are and that the journey to fulfillment may be long or short. By urging the reader to attempt at least tiny increments of change and intention, a meaningful shift can occur in the lives of even the most destitute and depressed individuals. This comforting book asks to be passed on to anyone held back by fear and misgiving or even great loss. Be not deceived by its dainty size—it’s a big book with a big message distilled to its essentials with a lucid grace that invites repeated readings.

"Live your life through choice, not chance," states author Susan Gilbert. "..and take one step."

The journey to THE LAND OF I CAN is, at the same time, the longest and shortest voyage any of us will ever experience. In less than three months, Susan Gilbert lost two of the most important people in her life to the ravages of cancer. With her life in chaos and unprepared to be on her own, Susan found herself paralyzed by terror. The decision to continue living her life, to maximize it, came when she realized she was responsible for the fear that held her captive. In words of sublime simplicity, Susan Gilbert reveals the simple truths that will take us from the dark places in our souls to the brightness of The Land of I Can.
