A collection of the very best in classic and contemporary writings, mixing short stories, poetry, inspiring speeches and quotes, and humorous insights on the fine - but far from lost - art of reading.
Charles Dickens, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Robert Frost, Louisa May Alcott, Winston Churchill, Jack London, Edgar Allen Poe, William Shakespeare, the Holy Bible, and many other sources are used to create this truly unique and enjoyable selection of nighttime reading.
Bound in an exquisite bonded leather case, with a whimsical full color illustration "tipped on" the cover. Four raised hubs on the spine, classic rough-cut edges, generous gold stamping, and a silky ribbon marker complete the impressive packaging.
Perfect as a gift or self-purchase for anyone who loves to indulge themselves with a few moments of great reading before retiring for the night. But each book is also ideal for the home decorator who wants to add a touch of class to a nightstand in their bedroom, a child's bedroom, or the guest room.

Nourishment for Your Soul
Ah, the end of the day is at hand. And like so many other days there was more to do than there was time in which to do it all.
Whatever the cares and toils of your day may have been, now is your time to unwind. Don't waste another second worrying about what's left undone-that's what tomorrow is for and it will be here soon enough.
Of course you can immediately turn out the light and drift off to sleep. But even though you're tired, you know you'll toss and turn and mull over the events of the day.
The television set stares blankly at you, inviting you to move from channel to channel of reruns and other late night fare. But is that really a satisfactory way to end your day?
Wouldn't you prefer a few moments to partake of an activity that soothes and nourishes, stirs and refreshes your soul? Why not wind down with a gentle, humorous, or heartfelt story; or peruse an insightful poem that lifts your spirit and renews your mind? Now is your time after all.
Fluff the pillow, adjust the light, take a deep breath, sip your water, smile and relax as you enjoy the humor and wonder awaiting you within the pages of the Nightstand Reader.
