When Garnet Raven was three years old, he was taken from his home on an Ojibway Indian reserve and placed in a series of foster homes. Having reached his mid-teens, he escapes at the first available opportunity, only to find himself cast adrift on the streets of the big city. Having skirted the urban underbelly once too often by age 20, he finds himself thrown in jail. While there, he gets a surprise letter from his long-forgotten native family. The sudden communication from his past spurs him to return to the reserve following his release from jail. Deciding to stay awhile, his life is changed completely as he comes to discover his sense of place, and of self. While on the reserve, Garnet is initiated into the ways of the Ojibway--both ancient and modern--by Keeper, a friend of his grandfather, and last fount of history about his people's ways. By turns funny, poignant and mystical, Keeper'n Me reflects a positive view of Native life and philosophy--as well as casting fresh light on the redemptive power of one's community and traditions.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect for the little ones Christmas
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I ordered this book for a recent baby shower. I always try to get this story as I received one for my son when he was little and we still have it. It makes lasting memories for Christmas to watch them as they listen to you read it and then when you get to listen to them read it as they get older. It’s a timeless tradition. The book itself is brand new, the spine was in perfect shape and the book was never opened. It was super stiff and I didn’t want to open it so I didn’t get any pictures of the pages. But I did peak inside without cracking the spine and saw that the pics looked nice. For the price you can’t beat it.

The Night Before Christmas (Little Golden Book)
Format: Hardcover
I recently read "The Night Before Christmas" Little Golden Book and it brought back so many memories of my childhood. This classic holiday story has been a staple in many households, including mine, for years.
One thing I really liked about this book is the beautiful illustrations. They were vibrant and full of detail, bringing the story to life. The images perfectly captured the magic and excitement of Christmas Eve. It made me feel like I was right there with Santa and his reindeer, flying through the night sky.
I also enjoyed the rhyming text in this book. It flowed smoothly and added a playful rhythm to the story. It was fun to read aloud, especially when sharing it with younger children. The words painted a vivid picture of all the wonderful things happening on that special night.
However, one thing I disliked about this book was that it felt a bit short. I wished there was more to the story or maybe an additional scene at the end. But considering it's a Little Golden Book meant for younger readers, I understand why it was kept concise.
I have used this book as a bedtime story for my little cousins during the holiday season. They absolutely loved it! The magical theme and festive illustrations captivated their imaginations.
