Book Description
To Kate and Dan, Grandpa’s pond looks big enough to be a lake—so the fun at the pond is also big and amazing! While following Grandpa’s safety rules, Dan, Kate, and their cousins enjoy taking turns paddle boating and kayaking on the pond and riding four-wheelers near the pond. They learn about fly-fishing and homemade flies. They also engage in the wise conservation practice of catching and releasing the fish they are not going to eat. The picnic at the end of the day is full of delicious fish and tasty dishes prepared by their grandparents, parents, aunts, and uncles. With Grandma’s help, the children even roast their own s’mores for dessert. Throughout the day, Kate and Dan are curious about the constantly changing outdoors. They ask their grandfather many questions, and his answers are thoughtful and informative, helping the children learn the value of being good stewards of our natural environment and respecting all life. Our Grandpa Owns a Lake! has educational value and helps readers discover the wonders and customs of various animals, birds, and fish. The book is also entertaining for children, parents, and grandparents, especially when they read it together. Our Grandpa Owns a Lake! is loosely based on actual experiences that the author and her husband—the grandfather in the book—have had at their Idaho trout pond with their own grandchildren.

Book Description
A loving grandfather discovers he has supernatural powers similar to those of kabbalistic masters of the past. He employs his special abilities to assist his grandchildren to cope with difficulties that beset them through no fault of their own. These include an unappreciative teacher, a stolen bike, cramping during sporting events, and a basketball opponent who is much too tall and skilled for his league. While the story reveals many aspects of Jewish mysticism, the problems the children encounter are those common to many twenty-first-century kids. The grandfather offers age-old remedies for modern predicaments.

Book Description
Storytelling is an important, vibrant tradition among the Native peoples of the Far North, especially in the Athabaskan communities of interior Alaska and the Yukon Territory. Here for the first time is an anthology of the best stories that Athabaskan speakers tell about themselves, their communities, and the cold, beautiful world of the Far North. Showcased are twenty accomplished Native storytellers, recognized as masters by their people, who come from the Deg Hit'an, Koyukon, Gwich'in, Northern and Southern Tutchone, Kaska, Tagish, Upper and Lower Tanana, Tanacross, Upper Kuskokwim, Dena'ina, Ahtna, and Eyak communities. Men and women, young and old, recount popular tales of legendary times, such as how Raven Shaped the World. They also share meaningful, sometimes intimate, stories about their own lives, their families, or the history of their people. These evocative, wonderfully crafted stories are a literary treasure trove; entertaining, enchanting, and offering an unforgettable glimpse of the Native peoples who live under the bright lights of the Far North.
