A unique account in poetry & prose of a family in early Walnut Creek, California, 1947-1974, with 4 vibrant watercolors from those years, plus a charcoal sketch of San Francisco. There are also 3 watercolors from the author's earlier years in northwest North Dakota, high school in the lake region of Minnesota, & college at the University of North Dakota at Grand Forks. As a ten year old the author decided she wanted to be a poet. Throughout the years she has written poetry as an emotional release in response to life's challenges. She uses prose to set the stage for each of her poems & Anne Huddas Thull has transformed the scenes of the poetry into lovely watercolors. The quiet simplicity of the book belies the depth & feeling of the poetry. Emme invites us in to share her feelings &, perhaps, invoke a few of our own. Anyone who has heard the wind howl across the Plains, fallen in love, mothered a child, moved, or shopped at a friendly neighborhood grocery will enjoy this book.
