Adventures in the High Meadow

"Adventures in the High Meadow" tells stories of three friends (a girl, a horse, and a wooly mammoth) as they meet animals and situations present 10,000 years ago. The traits of the animals they meet are demonstrated. In many cases, the three help the animals they meet. There are scary situations, which always turn out OK. There are many tricks played. Throughout, the three have a lot of fun and no one gets hurt. There are surprises in every story and each story ends with a laugh. In the final story, each animal tells what they think the future of their kind will be.

The idea for this book first started many years ago as a "Story-go-Round". That is my grandkids description of the times we would sit around and create a story. One person starts the story and stops in mid-sentence. The next person finishes that sentence and takes it to where they stop in min-sentence. The fun part is you never know where the other people will take the story. When it gets back around to you, you have to both continue the story as it is, and tell it until stopping in mid-sentence. The results can be really funny, or exciting, or scary. You never know how the story is going to end until it is ended. There is a lot of laughter along the way. Many, really creative stories result. And, along the way, quick thinking and verbal expression are enhanced.

The author hopes that you have as much fun reading this book as he had writing it....
