The Range Eternal

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Paul Brett Johnson & Lou Fancher. Swirling paintings reflect the warmth emanating from a Native American family's wood burning stove, which is both the literal center of comfort and security in their household and a symbol of the fading open "range" outside their door. Arresting images of meals cooked and cold nights endured nicely balance the story's mystical elements to deliver a poignant message about preserving the past.
