The Gift by Marcia S. Freeman; illus. by Patrice Kennedy Four copies remaining Written for ages 9 - 12, this heartwarming story about a Norwegian immigrant family in Dakota Territory in the 1800s, appeals to readers of all ages. A story of the generosity, hope and love that sustains a family is balanced against the reality of isolation and loneliness on the prairie. Authored by an internationally recognized writing education consultant, this book is getting hard to find. (One place on the Internet is charging $32 per copy.) The publisher of the book is offering the copyrighted Teachers' Guide for this book. The guide — which can be duplicated for classroom work only — is found at: http://www.maupinhouse.com/pdf/giftguide.pdf However, one doesn't need to be an educator to enjoy this story. Anyone with an interest in immigration, or older family members who are asked to explain to children about long gone immigrant relatives and their lives, will enjoy both the realistic story and the art work in this heartwarming book.

for Folks who Grew up on a Farm
Olson
combines a keen sense of humor with prairie wisdom in a series of
essays about the land, lutefisk, duck hunting, Girl Scout
cookies, skunks, diversity and Prozac! Olson has farmed in
Western Minnesota for
a quarter of a century on a farm his Norwegian great-grandparents
homesteaded 120 years ago, and sometimes it is hard to tell if things
are better than they were in the 1880s, or just different. If more
people read this kind of
writing, there'd soon be no need for Prozac -- or lutefisk! FA
