Pickup trucks and eagles, yellow school buses and painted horses, Mother Earth and Sister Meadowlark all join together to greet the dawn. They marvel at the colors and sounds, smells and memories that come with the opening of the day. Animals and humans alike turn their faces upwards and gaze as the sun makes its daily journey from horizon to horizon. Dawn is a time to celebrate with a smiling heart, to start a new day in the right way, excited for what might come. Birds sing and dance, children rush to learn, dewdrops glisten from leaves, and gradually the sun warms us. Each time the sun starts a new circle, we can start again as well. All these things are part of the Lakota way, a means of living in balance. S. D. Nelson offers young readers a joyous way of appreciating their culture and surroundings. He draws inspiration from traditional stories to create Greet the Dawn. His artwork fuses elements of modern with traditional. Above all, he urges each of us to seize the opportunity that comes with the dawn of each new day.

Mornings with Mother Mary: Growing Into Love speaks to the heart of who we are. The blessed Mother of Jesus, through messages brought forth by Naneki Elliott, challenges us to question beliefs which limit our capacity to know our own divinity. She encourages us to face our fears and to choose compassion in every moment. She inspires us to know ourselves as who she is: the love of God. Mother Mary’s messages are offered as separate meditations on such topics as compassion, goals, money, war and peace, remembering, choice, sickness and health, death and life. Mother Mary also answers specific questions regarding Hollywood, Littleton, Colorado, the Millennium, the lifetime of Jesus, the Gore/Bush campaign, and former President Clinton’s impeachment trial.

Her choice, (to be a practitioner of the "craft"), gives her the confidence to challenge those who would destroy her sisterhood. Dorothy will learn all that she can about those who tried and failed to achieve their own goals. She will seek her calling and stay "below the notice" of those who would ultimately clash with her ideals.
