Rachel Simon, author of the bestselling “Riding the Bus with my Sister,” will be speaking about her new book, “Building a Home with my Husband,” in Towson on Wednesday, July 8th, at 7:00 pm at the Maryland Presbyterian Church. Get directions here. Typically a type-A achiever, Rachel embarked on a life-changing journey by spending a year riding the buses with her sister, who has an intellectual disability. The relationship she builds with her sister, and consequently with others, makes up the vivid, affecting and thoughtful tales of “Riding the Bus With My Sister.”
“Building a Home With My Husband” promises to continue some of the themes in the first book. Rachel Simon writes intimately about the challenging journey of mending relationships so that they can grow to unforeseen dimensions, a ride worth taking.
