The Nine Lives of Curious Edith

by Edith Vosefski, Karen Dix (Editor)

Meet the unstoppable Edith Vosefski, an eternal optimist who hails from Downers Grove, Illinois! The Nine Lives of Curious Edith chronicles her life of love and caring for others with a unique sense of humor that models life can be fun as well as serious. After college, she was a housemother in a children’s home, a teacher, homemaker, program administrator in a psychiatric hospital, and founder of the Northern Illinois School of Etiquette. Her story takes the reader on a lively, humorous, and faith-filled journey from the horse-drawn ice wagons of her childhood through her courtship, sixty-four year marriage to her husband Joe, and their international travels together. Edith first became an author in her seventies and finished The Nine Lives of Curious Edith just after her ninetieth birthday while dealing with the residual effects of a stroke. Her memoir will capture your heart and inspire you to keep growing and learning at any age… just like Edith does!

[Mary · Rating 4 out of 5]

Just a light biography of a lady living in Chicago suburbs.
She was probably ahead of her time by working outside the home, getting another degree later in life, while raising a nice family.
