Book Description
I Can Sleep When The Wind Blows is a retelling of the classic story of Jim, a 17 year old boy who applies to work on a farm. His only qualification is that he can sleep when the wind blows. The farmer doesn't understand what he means, but he hires him. When a terrible storm comes in the night, the farmer learns the value of this unusual skill.This delightful story helps young children understand how to cope ahead to be prepared to deal with potentially stressful situations and how doing this can help them feel more in control and prepared when difficult times come. Young children who suffer from anxiety can follow Jim's example of planning ahead and believing in themselves and their ability to feel peace even when hard things are happening around them. This classic folk story has been used in schools, churches, and homes for centuries to help children understand how planning ahead and working hard can help them feel peace in difficult times. The story of Jim, the young boy who didn't seem to have any special talents or strengths, but is able to save the farm, allows children to understand that everyone has the power to cope ahead so they can feel safe. Parents, teachers and others can use this story to begin the conversation with children about what causes them to feel anxiety and how being prepared by coping ahead can help ease their anxiety and help them feel peace.

Book Description
The sixth book of poems by Don McKay. In Sanding Down This Rocking Chair on a Windy Night, McKay again demonstrates his ability to transorm the familiar into the breathtaking, and to touch us deeply with words. These poems show just how much McKay can do with language. In the long title poem, readers will find themselves listening to a voice that makes them feel welcome and at home, yet as renewed as if they had slipped into new skins -- while the stand-up comedy of the madly speaking starling in "Sturnus Vulgaris" reminds us that poetry can still make readers laugh out loud. Indeed, that starling with the startling voice can be taken, says McKay, as an emblem for this book as a whole: "He argues for multiplicity and many-voicedness, for having centres everywhere."
