Literature & Fiction

This dreamlike, surreal, and beautifully written and illustrated children's book is the story of the "Rabbit in the Moon" instead of the "Man in the Moon."  Moon Rabbit comes down to earth to live in a old stone dwelling inspired by Chaco Canyon, where he discovers the warmth of the ancient fires from the memory of the Pueblo dwellers who shared their stories with him.

Who Will Save Mr. Squeaky?

Cosmo has lived on the island of Sonamba all of his life. As its self-appointed guardian, each day he patches the wall that surrounds it. He does this while reciting the following instructions: “Hammer in a stick from the billabom bush, then smear it with the tar from the ticamo tree.” He does this to prevent a fate so terrible that it can not be thought about. He does it successfully until the day the townspeople decide to honor him, then disaster strikes.

Travel

Cactus Critter bash is the result of a lifetime of fascination with the Sonoran Desert. Sid Hausman spent a great deal of time in the desert, riding, hiking, and studying its secrets. He became amazed that so many critters can share a land that appears so harsh and dry. Desert animals are resourceful and we can learn from them. Although the desert seems void of activity in the daytime, at night when itâ€™s cooler everything comes to life. Thatâ€™s when the party begins and continues to the wee hours of the morning.
