Description
A variety of stories for children ages ten and up and for adults. Devotion, danger and bravery, along with a healthy mix of other virtues, infuse the tales. Realism, fantasy, and imaginative wandering make for fresh discoveries, certainly of selfhood, friendship, community and love. Most lend themselves to being read aloud, but all invite a quiet place where one can lose oneself. No matter: each brings the reader to a home of the imagination.
