Goodfellas meets Thelma and Louise when an unlikely trio of women in New York find themselves banding together to escape the clutches of violent figures from their pasts. After Brooklyn mob widow Rena Ruggiero hits her eighty-year-old neighbor Enzio in the head with an ashtray when he makes an unwanted move on her, she embarks on a bizarre adventure. Taking off in Enzio’s ’62 Impala, she retreats to the Bronx home of her estranged daughter, Adrienne, and her granddaughter, Lucia, only to be turned away by Adrienne at the door. Their neighbor, Lacey “Wolfie” Wolfstein, a one-time Golden Age porn star and retired Florida Suncoast grifter, takes Rena in and befriends her. When Lucia discovers that Adrienne is planning to hit the road with her ex-boyfriend Richie, she figures Rena’s her only way out of a life on the run with a mother she can’t stand. But Richie has massacred a few members of the Brancaccio crime family for a big payday, and he drags even more trouble into the mix in the form of an unhinged enforcer named Crea. The stage is set for an explosion that will propel Rena, Wolfie, and Lucia down a strange path, each woman running from something and unsure what comes next. A Friend is a Gift You Give Yourself is a screwball noir about finding friendship and family where you least expect it, in which William Boyle again draws readers into the familiar—and sometimes frightening—world in the shadows at the edges of New York’s neighborhoods.

Featuring the same unique flip-book design and universal message that made I Love You More a bestseller, this companion book brings the same beautiful lyricism to a new dual idea: A child is a gift to the world, and the world is a gift to a child. Evoking all that makes a child unique, the book then mirrors with the world's special gifts-from mountains to seas to life itself. Inspirational as well as gorgeously written, both poems reach the same moving conclusion: A child in the world is the greatest gift of all. Praise for I Love You More: "I can just see an adult and a kid giggling away, flipping the book over and taking turns reading to get to the middle and a big fat hug... Sweet, simple examples that a little one with a big heart will understand." -Alyne Ellis, AARP Radio Network

A Gift for YOU is a colorful book telling the story of the birth of Jesus in a new perspective, as if Jesus is speaking directly to the children. Jesus is telling the children how he came to be, how he may have felt the night he was born, what he saw and heard, and why God sent him here to be with us. It is a unique perspective to help children understand the real meaning of Christmas, that is, the simple message of love, that Jesus was a special gift of love from God. The book is meant to open the discussion of what is love and how can a child show others love. After reading the book, the child will see that Christmas is more than getting gifts from others but the real meaning is that Jesus is our gift from God. Through Jesus and his teachings, we learn how to care for one another and love one another. It is my intent to have parents, grandparents, teachers, siblings, and anyone who reads this to children open the discussion as to how they can show love to others. By showing care and love for others we are, therefore, doing the work that Jesus taught us. That is, the gift he gave us and the gift we are to pass on to others, and the real meaning of Christmas-taking care of one another and loving one another.
