Jennifer Chambers and her dog Patch move from her perfect apartment in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, to a seven-room two-story white frame farmhouse in the middle of nowhere. Jenny is a city girl, and Whippoorwill Farm is not the place where she wants to spend the rest of her life alone, but she has no choice. Her fianc talked into buying her grandparent's farm. They were going to live there as newlyweds, but it didn't happen. She bought the farm, literally, because she was in love. Bad decision. Trying to make the old farm feel like home, when Jenny cleans the stonewalled cellar beneath the farmhouse her dog finds a small wooden box hidden under her grandfather's workbench. The box has an ivory dragon with red ruby eyes on top. It looks like a treasure from another time, another place. Such an exotic looking antique should be filled with diamonds, emeralds, and pearls, instead it's filled with old keys. Among the derelicts, Jenny finds three keys on a gold ring and an invitation to play a game with the ghost of a man, John Burkhead, a former owner who has been dead for over sixty years.Jenny learns that Burkhead was an eccentric, a collector of antiques and rare treasures, who kept a white wolf as a pet. Locals say he was murdered by vandals searching for Egyptian artifacts. Jenny has been living in a purple funk for four long months having been betrayed by her fianc and her best friend and she decides to play Burkhead's game of Locks and Keys because she feels she has nothing more to lose. She doesn't realize she is beginning an adventure, accepting a challenge, with unexpected consequences.When Jenny is attacked by a burglar looking for Burkhead's rumored treasures she buys a gun to protect herself. She is armed, but she isn't sure she could pull the trigger knowing a bullet can maim or kill. When the game turns deadly, Jenny realizes that if she doesn't have the guts to defend herself and her property, she should move to a gated community. To further complicate her life, Jenny worries about opening a lock and finding something of great value. Ethically, if she did find one of Burkhead's treasures would it belong to her, or to Burkhead's relatives, his heirs? Trying to make a decision about ownership, she locates Burkhead's cousin and forms an immediate connection with Ms. Gracie and her son Sean. Jenny trusts Sean and asks him to join her as she plays John's game. When the attraction between Jenny and Sean deepens, Jenny dreads telling him she is a 26-year-old virgin. It's the age of promiscuity. He will think she's . . . actually she doesn't know what he will think.As Jenny plays Burkhead's ghostly game, she faces challenges that test her ingenuity, her integrity, and her courage in ways she could never have imagined. Will she win the game? Will she find all the locks that match the keys? The most important question of all . . . is she the only one playing John Burkhead's ghostly game?
Der Kater-Riese Teddy sa fast drei Jahre als Unvermittelbarer im Tierheim im Einzelhaft weil er drei Menschen krankenhausreif gebissen hatte und als heimt ckisch und gef hrlich galt. Als er von seinem Frauchen Doris aus dem Tierheim geholt wurde, entwickelte sich eine tiefe Liebe. Nach 7 Jahren musste er ber die Regenbogenbr cke gehen und trifft dort dr ben auf der gro en Blumenwiese die "Frauchengruppe" unter der Leitung der uralten Katze Hexe. In der Gruppe sind alle Tiere, die mit ihrem Frauchen Doris jemals zusammengelebt haben. Aber es gibt nur zwei Seelentiere: Teddy und die 26j hrige Katze Hexe. Teddy erz hlt in diesem B chlein seine Geschichte, aber vielmehr noch die Geschichten der anderen Tiere, die mit Frauchen gelebt haben. Aber auch die Geschichten der "Waisentiere", die auf der Erde kein Frauchen oder Herrchen hatten und hier in der Gruppe integriert werden. Auch die Erlebnisse die er mit seinen Freunden auf der wundersch nen Wiese hat, die n chtlichen Besuche bei seinem Frauchen Doris. Von Sternen, die Tr ume schenken k nnen und von unsichtbaren Fl geln. Von dem strahlenden Regenbogen und der Br cke zu der Blumenwiese und von der geheimen Br cke zu der ewigen Wiese wo Mensch und Tier f r immer zusammen leben. Von dem ewigen Moment und dem Verlust der Zeit. Das Buch verbindet Traurigkeit mit einem L cheln. Tr nen der Trauer mit Tr nen vor Lachen. Hoffnungslosigkeit durch den Verlust des geliebten Tieres mit Hoffnung eine neue kleine Kammer des Herzens mit einer neuen herrenlosen Seele zu f llen. Hinter den Geschichten steht der Glaube, dass wir uns alle einmal hinter dem Regenbogen wiedersehen.
In seinem zweiten Buch erz hlt uns der Kater-Riese Teddy wieder von seinen Erlebnissen und Begegnungen im Land hinter dem Regenbogen. Von Oma-Frauchen und dem Katzenmann auf der ewigen Wiese, von besonderen Tagen und seinen n chtlichen Besuchen bei seinem Frauchen. Von Begegnungen mit Tieren, denen die Menschen auf der Erde Schlimmes angetan haben und die im Regenbogenland Frieden finden. Es gibt Gudrun, das verr ckte Huhn, das Chaos ins Regenbogenland bringt. Und die uns Lachtr nen in die Augen treibt. Wieder zieht Teddy mit seinen Erz hlungen seine Leser in seinen Bann. Und auch die traurigsten Geschichten zaubern uns am Ende ein L cheln ins Gesicht. Auch dieses Buch verbindet Traurigkeit mit einem L cheln. Tr nen der Trauer mit Tr nen vor Lachen. Hoffnungslosigkeit durch den Verlust des geliebten Tieres mit der Hoffnung eine neue Kammer des Herzens mit einer neuen herrenlosen Seele zu f llen. Die Erz hlungen sollen auch zum Nachdenken anregen und vielleicht ein wenig dazu beitragen, dass wir Menschen im Umgang mit unseren Tieren, seien es Nutztiere oder Haustiere, achtsamer umgehen. Hinter den Geschichten steht der Glaube, dass wir uns alle einmal hinter dem Regenbogen wiedersehen werden und gemeinsam in f r alle Ewigkeit auf der ewigen Wiese zusammen sind.
Auch in seinem dritten Buch entf hrt uns der Erz hl-Teddy in das Land hinter dem Regenbogen. Wieder stellt er uns viele Tiere vor, die er am Fu e der Br cke willkommen gehei en hat und die ihm ihre Geschichten erz hlen. Es sind Geschichten von Liebe, Freude und Geborgenheit, die die Tiere auf der Erde von ihren Frauchen und Herrchen erfahren durften. Diese Tiere warten auf der Wiese gemeinsam mit ihren Freunden auf den Moment, in dem sie ihre geliebten Frauchen und Herrchen an der alten Br cke unter dem Regenbogen abholen d rfen. Es sind aber auch Geschichten von Schmerzen, Hunger und Gemeinheit, die von Menschen den Tieren zugef gt wurden und euch Leser zum Nachdenken bringen sollen. Doch auch diese Geschichten haben letztendlich eines gemeinsam: Die Gewissheit, dass sie ein friedvolles und gl ckliches Dasein hinter dem Regenbogen haben d rfen. Schmerzen, Hunger und Angst fallen von ihnen ab und sie erfahren in ihren neuen "Familien" was Liebe bedeutet. Und wenn ihre Freunde Frauchen und Herrchen an der Br cke abholen, werden sie von ihnen adoptiert und gemeinsam gehen sie ber die geheime Br cke auf die ewige Wiese. Und es gibt die Geschichten von Gudrun Das Huhn mit den verr ckten Einf llen galoppiert auch durch dieses Buch. Immer wieder kommt sie auf neue Ideen mit denen sie Teddy und seine Freunde in den Wahnsinn, und uns Lesern die Lachtr nen in die Augen treibt. In diesem Buch gibt es zu jeder Geschichte Bilder, die von der Handlung erz hlen. Und als ganz besonderes "Schmankerl" hat uns unsere liebe Freundin Anke Ottensmeyer wundersch ne Handzeichnungen gemalt. Jede einzelne Zeichnung ist ein kleines Kunstwerk und man kann sich kaum sattsehen an dem Detailreichtum dieser Bilder.

Finalist for The 2022 Governor General's Literary AwardsA magical children's picture book, written in Cree and English, depicting the transformation of a barren landscape into a rich natural world where an elderly couple can spend their remaining days. Rooted in the historical displacement and relocation of members of the Chemawawin First Nation from their ancestral homeland, The Move is a bilingual story of two Cree Elders adjusting to life in their new environment. The story presents two contrasting landscapes of the old community--the homeland of the Chemawawin People--and the new community of Easterville, which at first appears barren and lifeless. Gradually, the couple begins to incorporate their old customs and traditions into their current surroundings. Family members begin to visit, and eventually nature begins to bloom all around them. Through traditional Cree storytelling techniques and vivid imagery, the new landscape springs to life and becomes a true community, filled with life and happiness.
