BOOKS BY MAGGIE STEINCROHN DAVIS Books celebrating a vision of kinship and the interconnectedness of all life. After 20 years of being published by others, Maggie decided, at age 50, to publish her own books. She wanted the way she made her books and eased them into the world to reflect the kinship themes expressed in their pages. She hoped to add her voice to those who were doing business differently, who were as eager (more eager) to give back as they were to take in. All books printed on recycled paper with soy-based inks. GLORY TO THE FLOWERS--Celebrates flowers and the life and spirit of Edward Bach, flower essence pioneer. (32pp. full color paperback picture book for children of all ages). $10.00 Praise for GLORY!: "Here is a book that shines as brightly as the flowers it praises. Plant this book in the garden of your soul." -Patricia Kaminski, co-director of the Flower Essence Society "This vibrant, reverent book sings us humans awake. It is a gift in these times when so many fail to truly smell the flowers." -Deb Soule, founder of Avena Botanicals, author of The Roots of Healing: A Woman's Book of Herbs Excerpt from GLORY!: " One day when I was young, and walking with a friend, a field dry as straw bloomed with flowers. 'Oh, glory!' we breathed, my good friend and I , for the flowers blazed like suns and fire and rainbows. They sprang from folds between hillsides, peeked from pockets of shade. Spiraling--dancing--they followed us home..." ROOTS OF PEACE, SEEDS OF HOPE: A JOURNEY FOR PEACEMAKERS The author's best understanding of what Native and non-Native people have been to one another in this country- a call for Peacemakers. (paperback 48pp. full color cover--pen & ink drawings--for all ages) $10.00 Praise for ROOTS: " A profound education in the way of peace." -Matthew Fox, author of Original Blessing "A beautiful book, both to hold and to look at--and especially in its spirit." -Howard Zinn, author of People's History of the United States Excerpt from ROOTS OF PEACE: "These days we all must be Peacemakers. Red or black or yellow or white, you--all people--are seeds of hope for gentler times. Your age doesn't matter. It doesn't matter what your life is like or where you live. You are important. Every thought you think, every word you speak, everything you do, circles out to all beings through all places in all times." CHOICES OF A GROWING WOMAN - For women of every age and men who care about them. (paperback 144pp.) $10.00 Praise for CHOICES: "A sparkling gem, filled with wisdom--honest, personal. It asked all the right questions and touched me deeply." -Nena O'Neill, author of Shifting Gears and The Marriage Premise Excerpt from CHOICES: "No matter how old we are, we have a family within us. The child we were. The teen. The middle-aged person. The old person we will become. It is important we accept this stretch of age. If there is to be harmony between the generations in the world we live in, it must begin in the world that lives in us." Also in the works: -A teachers guide to ROOTS OF PEACE--I hope to see ROOTS OF PEACE used as a text in classes of History, Social Studies, Native American Studies, etc. The guide will be a tool for educators who use this book in their curriculum. -A companion to CHOICES OF A GROWING WOMAN All books are signed by the author.
