Based on a popular New York Times Op-Ed piece, this is the quirky, heartfelt account of one man''s quest to meet his neighbors--and find a sense of community. **As seen in Parade, USA Today, The Washington Post, The Chicago Sun-Times, and more.**Winner of the Zocalo Square Book Prize, and recently named a first selection by Action Book Club. "It''s impossible to read this book without feeling the urge to knock on neighbors'' doors." -Chicago Sun-Times Journalist and author Peter Lovenheim lived on the same street in suburban Rochester, NY, most of his life. But it was only after a brutal murder-suicide rocked the community that he was struck by a fact of modern life in this comfortable enclave: No one knew anyone else. Thus begins Peter''s search to meet and get to know his neighbors. An inquisitive person, he does more than just introduce himself. He asks, ever so politely, if he can sleep over. In this smart, engaging, and deeply felt book, Lovenheim takes readers inside the homes, minds, and hearts of his neighbors and asks a thought-provoking question: Do neighborhoods matter--and is something lost when we live among strangers?

WRITE YOUR LEGACYVisit a museum, a national park, a castle in Europe, or even the local zoo these days, and you’ll likely be directed to “exit through the gift shop.” A gift shop can be a metaphor for life. And that’s how award-winning journalist Peter Lovenheim found the inspiration for this book as a gift shop of gratitude.Through the lens of twenty common gift shop souvenirs, you are prompted to recall and organize all the things in life you’re most grateful for. Consider the snow globes and ball caps, the T-shirts, postcards, and jewelry—and let them bring to mind the people, places, and life experiences you hold most dear.After reading a chapter about the evolution of scented candles, what do you remember about the aroma of your mother’s cooking? Do key chains prompt memories of a friend or mentor who opened important doors for you? Does a bobblehead recall a beloved teacher or athletic coach?This special book will surprise and delight you with the memories it evokes. Then, by journaling your answers in the Gratitude Pages to these thought-provoking prompts, you’ll create your own personal memory book.
