Cessa's Place

Online Bookstore of Candace E. Salima

We have a new home and a new name!

Welcome to Cessa's Place! We have renamed the bookstore to be more in line with my thoughts on curling up in a comfy old chair, surrounded by bookshelves and simply immersing yourself in the written word. In this store you will find books by the finest LDS authors, jewelery, art, statuary, pottery, fragrances, etc. Check back often as we add more products to this store.

Critical to the health of the human spirit is art in all its flavors, sounds and colors. Whether it be the written word, the beauty of an exquisite painting, or the harmonious melodies of music . . . there is much that can feed the soul. Only the finest products will be offered on this website, so please browse, enjoy and renew yourselves -- you've earned it! Products are listed alphabetically by the author or artist.

A book is the only place in which you can examine a fragile thought without breaking it, or explore an explosive idea without fear it will go off in your face. It is one of the few havens remaining where a man's mind can get both provocation and privacy.

Come on in and stay awhile!

The Santa Letters by Stacy Gooch Anderson

"The falling December snow brings with it the sadness that has engulfed the previous year for the Jensen family. This first year without their father and husband has been trying. Money is tight, but it's the emotional strain that threatens to snap under the weight of grief. Just as Emma and the children begin to sink beneath the surface, a mysterious package arrives on the doorstep. An ornate wax seal beckons them to open the accompanying note and start on a journey through Christmas. The note is signed simply, "Santa," and each day a package arrives to remind them of the true meaning of Christmas - love, family, memories, and, most important of all, Christ.

Review:This is a book that will require the reader to have a box of tissues close at hand because you're going to laugh and you're going to cry. William being killed by a drunk driver while on his way home from work hit very close to home for me, having lost my brother-in-law that way. So it's possible my emotions were a little closer to the surface from the very beginning. But wow, this book is worth the read, and the tears.

It is an uplifting story that takes the reader through a journey from a dark and desperate place each of us must face eventually in life. Stacy Gooch-Anderson tells an engaging story which inspires the reader to be a better, more considerate person. The story is funny, sad, and poignant, taking this family from despair to peace over the course of the two weeks prior to Christmas.

This is a must-buy as well as a must-have for your home library. Every member of the family will enjoy this book. Read More of the Review at Dream a little dream . . .
