Christmas in Canada: A Celebration of Stories from Past to Present

Red Deer Press, 2003. Paperback. Like New. Paperback, Like New, clean, tight, unmarked, no spine or cover creases. (Near Fine)() The festival of Christmas is, like many Canadians, an immigrant to the nation. It was brought by newcomers-explorers, settlers and whole communities who carried with them their social traditions and religious beliefs. As new citizens settled across Canada, their traditions were soon shaped by the land and the other cultures they encountered. Award-winning author Rick Book has turned his writer's eye to big and small events in our country's story and has lent to them drama, dialogue and imaginative insight. While the twenty-four stories in Christmas in Canada are fictional, each one is based on actual Canadians' experiences. Christmas in Canada weaves a tapestry of stories past and present. It celebrates the many dimensions of faith brought to life by a vibrant, resilient, large-hearted people. It captures the hopes, disappointments and abiding faith of a multicultural country. But most of all, it ID: mon0000057832 .

Paperback, clean, tight, unmarked, no spine or cover creases, signed by the author, light edge rubbing.() Alberta Children's Book of the Year Vicky Metcalf Short Story Award winner for Sun Dogs It is 1965, and Eric is 16. It's a year to fix in the mind, especially when you're a boy stretching to become an adult. You pull away from parents. You discover Louise, her stunning black hair and eager brown eyes. Your first kiss is like falling into the House of Pleasure. The seven interlinked stories in Necking with Louise immerse teen readers in the coming of age of a robust but sensitive teenager. The stories chronicle his encounter with a sudden prairie blizzard, his discovery of the heart-breaking unpredictability of first love, his role in a championship hockey game, his first summer job, and his memories of his grandfather. But they also scratch into the rich prairie earth a record of Eric's candid search for manhood. ID: mon0000053181 .
