The Meadow

About the Book

How can a weak little fawn overcome all odds of survival against a bigger animal than her? Does the old bear escape the smoke-filled teepee and pursue the twins back up the path to the meadow? Does the old bear make it over the boulders? What happened to little Elie’s sister? Does she make it back to the meadow? Does the mother doe succeed at raising her twins? The meadow is a warm and safe place to raise the twins, but like all kids, their playtime got them into trouble. They had to survive and stay together to beat the dark presence that tricked them. When we walk the path of life, we all make bad decisions, and we must learn how to survive and make the right choices. I told story of the meadow to my sons and grandchildren. My grandchildren are the ones who encouraged me to write and have the story published. We would be riding around in the truck, and instead of listening to music, I would tell them stories. What is the moral of the story? Always listen to your mother! Mothers and grandmothers will always keep us safe. Mothers are teachers and protectors and keep us safe as we grow up. When things go wrong, your sibling will stick with you and help you get back onto the right path.
