Books by Colleen Patrick-Goudreau
The foundation of my work and life is compassion, and I have spent the last 30 years providing resources to make it easy, accessible, and joyful to live in a way that reflects our values of compassion and wellness. I’m the very proud author of eight books. See where to find them below.
My Latest Book
A Year of Compassion: 52 Weeks of Living Zero-Waste, Plant-Based, and Cruelty-Free empowers and inspires readers with 52 impactful, effective actions to create the compassionate world we all imagine for humankind, animalkind, and the ecosystems we all depend on.
Buy a Signed Book
Signed copies are available from Mrs. Dalloway’s Bookstore, a wonderful independent bookstore near my home in Oakland, CA, In fact, I signed several copies of A Year of Compassion, The Joyful Vegan, The Joy of Vegan Baking, and The 30-Day Vegan Challenge, so you can get your hands on signed copies of any of these books if you’re interested!
Buy from Independent Bookstores
Bookshop.org (formerly IndieBound) lets you type in your ZIP code to find a local independent bookstore near you.
Buy from Larger Retailers
Of course, there are plenty of larger retailers and bookstore chains you can buy from. Barnes & Noble is particularly nostalgic for me, as that is where I met my husband in 1994 when we were both working at a local Barnes & Noble in Livingston, NJ. ❤️ Links below go directly to the book for purchase or to leave a review)!
