Prairie Songs
Pam Conrad, Darryl S. Zudeck
Paperback (HarperCollins, Sept. 25, 1987)The prairie was like a giant plate, stretching all the way to the sky at the edges. And we were like two tiny peas left over from dinner, Lester and me.Louisa loves the Nebraska prairie, the only home she's ever known. It's a lonely place, surrounded by miles of wild, flat grasslands, but it's the wonderful kind of loneliness that comes of stillness and open sky and oneness with the land. A different kind of beauty enters Louisa's world when the new doctor and his wife, Emmeline, move to the prairie from New York City. Emmeline is the most beautiful person Louisa has ever seen, and she teaches Louisa to love poetry. But she is also frail and unsuited to pioneer life. Louisa wonders whether Emmeline will ever come to love the prairie as she herself does.

Prairie Girl's Song
Kate Ferris, Mary Ann Tully
Paperback (FriesenPress, Jan. 26, 2017)Children let their imaginations soar as they read "Prairie Girl's Song" and follow the adventures of a young girl on her family's prairie farm. The story is told through the delightful, rhyming lyrics of a folk song written by musician Kate Ferris. The vibrant imagery created with Ferris' words is woven by artist Mary Ann Tully into an enchanting and richly coloured mixed media tapestry of prairie plants and animals. Seen through the eyes of a child, the diversity of the wild prairie comes alive over the course of a day and into the magic of a prairie night. The glossary at the end of the book provides an excellent source of information about the ecology of the prairies. "Prairie Girl's Song" is an essential addition for the shelves of classrooms, schools and home libraries everywhere....
