Sweet Wonder

by Angeline Haen

Angeline Haen’s insightful observations whittle away the ho-hum from everyday circumstances and reveal the ah-ha. The reader will be gently nudged to pause and ponder the prose; to seek the hidden wisdom in the whimsy of wonder. Nourishment for our imagination comes in her natural curiosity to explore joy’s simplicity. The book reflects on a wide range of subject matters: berry patches dripping with ripe fruit, the love and loss of beloved pets, humorous tales of driving four-year-old children to preschool, a little bit of poetry from the poem pile, and the reveling in the marvel of it all. The uplifting and delightful book will breathe life into a listless spirit, awaken your sense of whimsical wisdom, and leave you feeling wonder full!

Author Biography

Born a farmer’s daughter, Angeline Haen has a deep love of land and life. She lives close to nature on a small hobby farm with her husband, Andy, in Sobieski, Wisconsin, where wonderment and whimsy come in daily doses. Her grown children, Sophie and Peter, are an infinite source of light, learning, and love. She credits her participation in the Native American community for helping her remember how to be a good relative. Her first book, Sweet Wisdoms (Shanti Arts, 2017), has found its niche as a gift for anyone, any time, or any reason. Her heart is kissed by the delight and joy it continues to share with the world. Shortly after Sweet Wisdoms publication, Angeline started a blog by the same name. The blog has been the inspiration for Sweet Wonder. Angeline cheerfully admits to secretly longing to live the life of a hermit. From a young age, she has had a deep love for horses. She cherishes her time in the saddle and the friends that come along for the ride. When she’s not wandering with wonder, she can be seen behind the wheel of a school bus or the Oliver 1555 tractor, or at the counter at North Chase Citgo.
