Reseña del libro "One More Year (en Inglés)"
"One more year -- keep your stuff longer, people" is Tilly's mantra as she trains for her first Ironman with her best friend-coach, Camas. Set in an idyllic northwest town on a pristine glacier-formed lake, Tilly sets out to tackle an Ironman for an environmental cause to convince people to curb their consumerism and give the planet a fighting chance against climate change. She can swim like a dolphin and run like the wind. Still, she doesn't know how to cycle, so she relies on a curmudgeon former athlete, her irreverent, tattooed friend, Camas, a group of maverick mountain bike guys, an old pirate, and her water dog, Pedro, to overcome her obstacles and save the town of Sandglass. One More Year is Book 1 of the Pedro the Water Dog Saves the Planet series, a read-in-an-afternoon novella-length adventure, filled with lovable, quirky characters in a candy wrapper of laughter, irreverence, kisses, friendship, satire, mountain bike jumps, love, and magnificent scenic beauty.In these wonderful stories, Kalfsbeek addresses important environmental issues through the loving, gentle hands of a cast of characters that are easy to connect with. One wants to be part of this healthy gang; it is easy to fall in love with one or two of them. She has found an avenue to address these critical issues that must be talked about but without a heavy hammer. A delightful read that will fill you with hope and a forgotten bounce in your step, or pedal.-Chris White, author of Wind, Waves and a Suicidal BoatAvis Kalfsbeek loves nature and can be found with her own water dog, Teo, swimming, hiking, and biking wherever their human and canine feet lead them. Kalfsbeek is a conservation real estate broker working to promote regenerative land practices. She encourages you to keep your stuff longer to slow down overconsumption and give the planet a fighting chance.
