A Pocket Full of Wishes: This book was fun with Scooter and “Pocket!” Who can resist a genie in a bottle and a bit of magic! David Dorris never misses a one liner when he writes, and while I have heard most of them in my 59+ years, I learned a few new ones this time! My favorite was “You left your voice in my ear” said by Scooter to Hannibal. These two characters sure can sling words! Entertaining book, fun to read! Robin Rollins CEO KOEHLER ELECTRIC

Book Description
In 2001 Steve Edwards won a writing contest. The prize was seven months of ?unparalleled solitude? as the caretaker of a ninety-two-acre backcountry homestead along the Rogue National Wild and Scenic River in southwestern Oregon. Young, recently divorced, and humbled by the prospect of so much time alone, he left behind his job as a college English teacher in Indiana and headed west for a remote but comfortable cabin in the rugged Klamath Mountains. ø Well aware of what could go wrong living two hours from town with no electricity and no neighbors, Edwards was surprised by what could go right. In prose that is by turns lyrical, introspective, and funny, Breaking into the Backcountry is the story of what he discovered: that alone, in a wild place, each day is a challenge and a gift. Whether chronicling the pleasures of a day-long fishing trip, his first encounter with a black bear, a lightning storm and the threat of fire, the beauty of aøsteelhead, the attacks of 9/11, or a silence so profound that a black-tailed deer chewing grass outside his window could wake him from sleep, Edwards?s careful evocation of the river canyon and its effect on him testifies to the enduring power of wilderness to transform a life.

Book Description
Marshall M. Frederick's sculptures can be seen in public places throughout the world, but it is in Michigan, where he lived for sixty years, that his legacy shines. Although his name is unknown to many people, a work such as The Spirit of Detroit is instantly recognized and loved by millions. This delightful book follows a young girl named Abby who is captivated by the sculptures she sees around Detroit —bronze pterodacytls, soaring humans, bears, clowns, and more. "How could anyone be in charge of decorating a whole city?" she wonders. With so many marvelous sculptures, it takes the determination of a curious child to discover them and learn how they were made. The Outdoor Museum is a guide to finding and appreciating hundreds of sculptures around the Great Lakes that were created by Marshall M. Fredericks — an invitation to the region's residents and visitors to discover the private world of public art.
