Download or read book Lessons written by Gisele Bündchen and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The instant New York Times bestseller Supermodel and philanthropist Gisele Bündchen shares personal stories, insights, and photos to explore lessons that have helped shape her life. Gisele Bündchen's journey began in southern Brazil, growing up with five sisters, playing volleyball, and rescuing the dogs and cats around her hometown. In fact, she wanted to become either a professional volley player or a veterinarian. But at the age of 14, fate suddenly intervened in in the form of a modeling scout, who spotted her in São Paulo. Four years later, Gisele's appearance in Alexander McQueen's memorably rain-soaked London runway show in the spring 1998 launched her spectacular career as a fashion model, and put an end to the "heroin chic" era of fashion. Since then, Gisele has appeared in almost 400 ad campaigns and on over 1200 magazine covers. She has walked in more than 470 fashion shows for the most influential brands in the world. Gisele has become an icon, leaving a lasting mark on the fashion industry. But until now, few people have gotten to know the real Gisele, a woman whose private life stands in dramatic contrast to her public image. In Lessons, she reveals for the first time who she really is and what she's learned over the past 37 years to help her live a meaningful life--a journey that takes readers from a childhood spent barefoot in small-town Brazil, to an internationally successful career, motherhood and marriage to quarterback Tom Brady. A work of great openness and vulnerability, Lessons reveals the inner life of a very public woman.

Book excerpt: The women have gossiped with stories throughout history as if these walls could talk and they heard every word. The men regale each other with exaggerated stories assuming the mattress could not talk and challenge their boasts. What stories would the furniture tell if it shared the inside secrets? How many lives has it touched in the last 100 years? How many generations have touched the high gloss cherry wood finish and lived to tell the tale? Every scratch has a story, every blemish a punishment. True furniture endures the test of time and captures lifetimes of moments along the way. A violent storm in 1916 destroys the southern ridge of the Blue Ridge Mountains but gives birth to furniture manufacturing. The very trees that threatened lives in the storm are transformed into beautiful furniture pieces with a hidden feature; A Widow’s Box. As the set is purchased and becomes part of the Papa family, the hidden box is kept secret. Some use the box to hide their past, some to save their future. Generations of family endure the struggle to maintain the furniture and protect the secrets within. Come along on this magical journey through time as LaPorta whisks you away along the lives that are touched within a 100 years. Some will perish and other flourish but they all have one thing in common, the Widow’s Box. Will the secret within be carried to the graveyard of the landfill or will quality and love endure...the test of time.
