""Quilt of Dreams"" celebrates the special relationship of grandmothers, mothers, and daughters and their labors of love that result in spectacular quilts.

In ""Aurora,"" Alaskan storyteller and artist Mindy Dwyer has created a magical story of a young girl whose seeking and dreams lead her to a great discovery. The bright, luminous illustrations that accompany the story magically portray this tale of the origin of the Aurora Borealis, the glorious northern lights. Inspired by her northern home, Mindy Dwyer says: ""Living in Alaska, it's natural for one to believe that ancient magic dances in the shadows, the wind is enchanted, the old legends are true and in nature."" She lives with her family in Anchorage and is also the author and illustrator...

In many Native American stories of creation, Coyote proudly takes his place as the ultimate trickster, the mischievous hero whose lessons may even include painful lessons for the unwary. Mindy Dwyer's retelling of a Northwest coyote legend allows readers young and old to meet that same colorful and wily creature, but this time made vulnerable himself by love.
As the author and illustrator sums things up, Coyote in Love is "a tale of love and the way things came to be." Children will be entranced as they hear of the antics of Coyote as he sings to the heavens in pursuit of the love...
