The Book of Gifts

A renowned artist shows that hope can be found everywhere-in family, friendships, and even the changing of seasons-through 100+ beautiful illustrations and thoughtful affirmations that capture the magic of self-love and resilience.

From celebrating the kindness of strangers to commemorating loss, Lucy Claire Dunbar seeks to warm the heart with every line of her hand-drawn illustrations. In The Book of Gifts, she intertwines some of her most popular artwork with heartfelt affirmations to create an irresistible keepsake and perennially appealing gift. With chapters that cover themes of love, friendship, gratitude, courage, memory, kindness, self-love, and hope, this book reminds us that no matter the challenges we face, there's always joy to be found if we stop to look for it.

Lucy's journey as an artist began when she temporarily lost her sight at the age of twenty-one. Lucy's irrepressible hopefulness kept her afloat, and fortunately, most of her vision has since been restored. Now, Lucy draws daily to ensure that she never forgets the gifts that each day has shown her. With The Book of Gifts, Lucy celebrates the optimism and positivity that has gotten her through so much, making it the perfect volume to share with friends, family, a partner, or just yourself.
