He’s the first person Rapunzel’s ever met who isn’t completely charmed by her (well, the first person she’s met at all, really), and he is infuriating-especially when he hints that Witch isn’t telling her the whole truth. Then a thief named Jack climbs into her room to steal one of her enchanted roses. And she knows this because Witch tells her so-her beloved Witch, who protects her from evil princes, the dangerous ground under the tower, even unhappy thoughts. She lives in a magic tower that obeys her every wish she reads wonderful books starring herself as the heroine her hair is the longest, most glorious thing in the world. ![]() In all of Tyme, from the Redlands to the Grey, no one is as lucky as Rapunzel. ![]() The fairy-tale charm and emotional depth of Ella Enchanted meets the fully developed fantasy world of Harry Potter in this wonderful older middle-grade retelling of Rapunzel. ![]() ![]() ![]() Lake in the Clouds, Bantam Books (New York, NY), 2002.įire along the Sky, Bantam Books (New York, NY), 2004.

The current edition, available on Amazon in both print and electronic versions, has a new cover with my young friend Claire as model and my old friend Susan Abrams as illustrator. Family Tree, my first book, is back in print after being out of print for some time. My second bit of news is that an old friend has returned. I've had a couple of reading events and will be promoting the book at the AWP Conference (Associated Writing Programs) in Seattle in late February. Yes, bears do get up to mischief, but sadly, we've behaved badly toward them as well, not such good reading for children. And the book is for adults, as some of the content is X-rated. ![]() Why? I've had a number of bear encounters, some of them fairly close-up and exciting. It's my first book of nonfiction for adults, a series of braided essays about the American black bear. So I'm starting the New Year off right, with good news times five.įirst, and most exciting, Bear Season has just been released by Autumn House Press. But as they say on some TV show or another, sheee's baaack! And just as bad news seems to clump up and overwhelm us from time to time, just now I have lots of good news to share. In fact there's been too much going on, so I've been preoccupied, mostly by family concerns. For the past year and a half, I've been AWOL, no news, no blog. ![]() ![]() ![]() Set yourself a reminder ask ask friends to hold you accountable, put a sign on your wall at the officeĮxample.

He tries to focus on his work, his businesses. If Kayley ever found out, it would be World War three. All I know is we shouldn’t be doing this.

I haven’t told my best friend Kayley that I’ve had a crush on her dad ever since we met two years ago. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The book is the most philosophical of novels, from a writer who has never hesitated to address philosophical issues. In Elizabeth Finch, the narrator’s understanding of himself and his life is bound up with his attempts to understand a person who has had a profound effect on him. In Barnes’ Booker Prize-winning novel, The Sense of an Ending (2012), his narrator is forced to question the way he has understood his life and his relationships to others. But who is this person who has such an impact on his life? How should he understand her? Can he find a way of expressing what she means to him? Problems of understanding Neil, twice divorced and a drifter through life, describes her effect on him as “explosive”. Her aim, she tells them, is not to impart information or teach according to a syllabus, but to encourage them to find “a centre of seriousness in yourselves”. Neil, the narrator of Julian Barnes’ latest novel, has the problem of interpretation posed for him by Elizabeth Finch, his teacher in a philosophy course on civilisation and culture for adult students. ![]() ![]() Adapted from the award-winning Black Texas Women: 150 Years of Trial and Triumph, it will be fascinating reading for children and their parents and grandparents, teachers, and librarians.

Their story includes many heroines, from Emily Morgan, “the Yellow Rose of Texas,” to pioneer aviator Bessie Coleman, astronaut Mae Jemison, opera singer Barbara Conrad, actresses Phylicia Rashad and Debbie Allen, and Congresswoman Barbara Jordan, whose life story forms the final chapter. Writing especially for students in grades four through eight, Ruthe Winegarten and Sharon Kahn trace the history of black women from slavery until today. ![]() This book dramatizes their impressive story and celebrates their achievements. ![]() Since Emancipation, black women have supported schools, churches, and civic organizations, entered many professions, and helped to build strong communities. ![]() Before the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, black women bore the bonds of slavery with courage and strength. “Documents the achievements of Black women from slavery to modern times and provides a thorough history of Black women and heroines.” -Midwest Book Review Brave black women have played important roles in American history. ![]() ![]() The great 'theme' would not exist without it. The Passion and Obsession between two lovers, between two people, is as necessary as the breath of Life, itself. The 'theme' may be the same, but the pathways traveled, have taken several turns some to enlightenment, and some to chaos. It is between Life and Twilight between beauty and pain. Of Magick, Masks, and Masquerades, is a continuation of Poems of Love and Light, a continuing journey, a recurring motif, between the Muse, and that great Theme of Love. ![]() |
