Books with author Don Gray

Sitting at the kitchen tables of twelve women in their eighties who were born in or immigrated to Montana in the late nineteenth or early twentieth century, between 1982 and 1988 oral historian Donna Gray conducted interviews that reveal a rich heritage. In retelling their life stories, Gray steps aside and allows theses women with supposedly “nothing to tell” to speak for themselves. Pride, nostalgia, and triumph fill a dozen hearts as they realize how remarkable their lives have been and wonder how they did it all. Some of these women grew up in Montana in one-bedroom houses; others traveled in covered wagons before finding a home and falling in love with Montana. These raw accounts bring to life the childhood memories and adulthood experiences of ranch wives who were not afraid to milk a cow or bake in a wooden stove. From raising poultry to raising a family, these women knew the meaning of hard work. Several faced the hardships of family illness, poverty, and early widowhood. Through it all, they were known for their good sense of humor and strong sense of self.

In this imaginary tale, it is not unusual for inanimate objects to assume life forms, act as though they were humans, or even interact with humans. The story begins with a couple, Mr. and Mrs. String, who are spending a special evening at home. Little do they realize the perils that lie ahead...A Stringy Situation is a fantasy tale written by writer Dora Gray, Ph.D. This chapter book was originally part of Dr. Gray’s thesis leading to her Master of Education degree from Cambridge College, USA. Her thesis intended to demonstrate how the study of music in any form substantially contributes to higher levels of academic achievement. One of the goals was to help music educators motivate their students to participate more readily and often during class and to aid them with other subjects such as mathematics, by increasing focus and linking concepts. The book stimulates the imaginations of young readers while preparing them for the language of music and all the benefits that it encompasses.Genre: Fantasy, Ages: 7 and up
