Local author Chris Spencer is currently celebrating the nationwide release of his new novel, My Grandfather’s Garden.
The book tells the story of Chris, who has a very special relationship with his grandfather. He can ask him anything, and is eager to learn all that Fred has to offer.
One special year, Chris learns about the true meaning of God’s love while helping work in the garden. Throughout this special year, he pieces together clues left to him by his grandfather as to the location of a secret key, which reveals the ten lessons for living.
Based on a true story, My Grandfather’s Garden takes readers inside a young boy’s mind and opens them up to loving lessons that transcend time. Tied together with select poems from Robert Frost, the story encourages readers to discover their past and unlock the secrets of their soul.
Published by Tate Publishing and Enterprises, the book is available through bookstores nationwide, from the publisher at http://tatepublishing.org/, or by visiting barnesandnoble.com, borders.com or amazon.com.
Half the royalties from sale of the book will be donated to Project Hope (www.projecthope.ca), which supports women and orphans in Zambia and Tanzania. Spencer hopes to sell 1,000 books, which will generate $4,500 for Project Hope or food for 25 widows and their families for one year.
Spencer, 47, lives in Elora and works as a senior sales and business development strategist and enthusiastic sales VP for a private company based out of Tennessee.
He is passionate about writing, travelling, philanthropic endeavours and building his boutique consulting practise.
