The Power of a Smile Suzanne S Bauman

It can be found anywhere and on anyone. It can be given to loved ones, friends, co-workers, or complete strangers. Some proudly show it on their faces, while others keep it hidden, offering just a hint of it if they find something happy or amusing. It is a smile. In author Suzanne S. Bauman's new book, The Power of a Smile, she shares for readers of all ages how a smile, when given or received, can impact us positively. Inspired by The Book of Joy, co-authored by Bishop Tutu and the Dalai Lama, Suzanne wanted to write a children's book that shows how a smile can contribute to someone else's joy and happiness. Especially in these challenging times that we live in, the need for joy in the world is more apparent than ever before and through The Power of a Smile, everyone can take part in providing those around them with the joys of a smile. Suzanne S. Bauman is a graduate of Vassar College and Stanford University. She retired as a reading specialist from the Utica City School District.
