Author

As the oldest daughter of nationally known speaker and author, Florence Littauer, Lauren comes by her speaking and writing talents naturally.

Her best-selling book, The Art of Helping – What to Say and Do When Someone is Hurting, is a practical hands-on guide to use in a wide variety of daily situations. Endorsed by nationally known speakers such as Emilie Barnes, Patsy Clairmont, and Marilyn Heavilin, this book demonstrates the lost art of graciousness and compassion—a much needed essential in today’s busy world.

Lauren teamed with Florence and Marita Littauer, her mother and sister, to write another must-have book, Making The Blue Plate Special –The Joy of Family Legacies. This step-by-step resource encourages families to enjoy and preserve their family traditions as well as create new ones.

She is also a contributing author to Open to Hope.

"...so many times I am frozen and feel helpless and a failure. Your suggestions were so liberating to me."

"Lauren taught me much about what helps us during difficult and challenging times. I would have loved for all my friends to have her book, The Art of Helping, during my five years fighting cancer. This book should be on everyone’s bookshelf for reference and to be shared with the hurting."

Emilie Barnes, “More Hours in My Day”

"Lauren’s message provides common sense and sensitive ways we can provide meaningful encouragement to those who need our help when we don’t know what to do."
