DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Windy Hill is a book of many stories about my life and my family. It tells of: - a girl, born a "bastard" in a small town, yet who managed to go through life not dwelling on being a victim. - a lifelong search for a real father and his approval. - a young woman who finally met the "right man." - a family with five daughters and two sons willing to take unbelievable risks. - an extended family, who opened their home to over two hundred kids-without public funding, but with the help of a friendly doctor, free lawyers, and the Good Lord. - a father who quit his job to follow his dream and made that dream-the American dream-come true. - and the struggles of a woman who forayed into politics, and who constantly wrestled with an unyielding bureaucracy. These stories are shared because I believe the life lessons I have learned might be helpful to others. Windy Hill belongs to many. I have just been the instrument to get the story told.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Award-winning author Liz Garton Scanlon presents a young, rhythmic read-aloud about a girl who solves a windy problem with an environmentally sound solution: planting trees. A wild wind blows on the tippy-top of a steep hill, turning everything upside down for the man who lives there. Luckily, Kate comes up with a plan to tame the wind. With an old wheelbarrow full of young trees, she journeys up the steep hill to add a little green to the man's life, and to protect the house from the howling wind. From award-winning author Liz Garton Scanlon and whimsical illustrator Lee White comes a delightfully simple, lyrical story about the important role trees play in our lives, and caring for the world in which we live.

(that) expresses the philosophy early readers most need to hear: there's humanity everywhere." --The New York Times
