Handle with Care by Louisa Reid (Guppy Books UK). Gorgeous, evocative prose. Two teen girls experience the same gut wrenching events from their own POV. I feel Ruby's pain so much, it might as well be my own. A powerful book, written responsibly. #YA

Miracles do happen! (I won't say more, lest I besmirch the tough rep of the old terrier). #dogs #Saskatchewan

My 4 year old granddaughter found this wooden apple in my study. She said, "It's a magic apple." No coaching necessary. #ProudGrandma

I'm no photographer, but I still enjoy this shot I took several years ago using a cheap phone. It was a good day, part of a wonderful trip to Grasslands National Park with my youngest daughter. #Saskatchewan

A photo taken in Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan, Canada, one of the quietest places on Earth. #EarthDay #CanadaStrong

Finally read WHEN YOU REACH ME by Rebecca Stead. Winner of the 2010 Newbery. This is my new book love, and it pays homage to my old book love, A WRINKLE IN TIME. What took me so long? #MG #Kidlit

Severe cold weather Fun Fact 6: Sixty year old windows can look like this...on the INSIDE.😱

Not easy, but essential to dream of a better world. Now I want to post a photo of my beloved dog China (on the left), who passed Jan. 7, 2019 from cancer. Chip, on the right, is still with us. Dogs are the best.

The hoar frost is gone, but the photographic evidence remains. It was pretty while it lasted. #Saskatoon

Reading Le Guin's great book again after several years. Estraven and Ai bonding as they struggle over the glacier is even more moving than I remembered. #LeftHandofDarkness #AmReading

Beautiful, but deadly. That's #Saskatchewan for you.

#AmReading Greystone Secrets: The Strangers by Margaret Peterson Haddix. Lives up to the blurb. A page turner. Best #MG I've read in a while.
