Stories
of Growth, Mirth, and Rebirth
Garden Tales
contains
the novella,
Girl at Longwood,
and two short stories,
Sox
and
Wind's Dream.
GIRL AT
LONGWOOD
All gardeners torture their
non-gardening family and friends with endless information
about their plants and the gardens they've created or
visited. In the novella
Girl at Longwood, a boy and girl, strangers and just
thirteen, have plant-addicted parents. Just entering
puberty, neither is interested in nor comfortable with the
opposite sex. But a chance meeting at Pennsylvania's
Longwood Gardens, while hiding from their parents, is the
beginning of a tentative on-again, off-again relationship.
SOX
In Sox, a small boy,
who's discovered the magic that can happen in a garden,
wants to learn as much about gardening as possible. And he
wants to learn from Sox, a huge, mysterious man with a
glorious garden. But Sox wants nothing to do with children,
and he harbors a secret too terrible to share. Sox and the
boy become an odd couple whose friendship may flourish or
disappear.
WIND'S DREAM
Wind's
Dream is about a
a group of Stone Age hunter-gatherers living thousands of
years in the past. The folk, as they call themselves, are
dying out. From lack of rain, rivers are dry, plants are
withered, and animals are scarce. In a story that may have
been repeated many times during the Stone Age, this group
faces extinction unless something can be done…now.
