With an innocent and sometimes brutal child's view, Rolo recounts stories of a woman who battles poverty, depression, her abusive husband, and isolation through the long northern Minnesota winters, and of himself, her son, who struggles at school, wrestles with his Ojibwe identity, and copes with violence. But he also shows, with eloquence and compassion, his adult understanding of his mother's fight to live with dignity, not despair.

Attributed to Tecumseh in the early 1800s, this statement is frequently cited to uphold the view, long and widely proclaimed in scholarly and popular literature, that Mother Earth is an ancient and central Native American Figure. In this radical and comprehensive rethinking, Sam D. Gill traces the evolution of female earth imagery in North America from the sixteenth century to the present and reveals how the evolution of the current Mother Earth figure was influenced by prevailing European-American imagery of Americaand the Indians as well as by the rapidly changing Indian identity.

This study brings together three closely related aspects of Maori literature - myth, memory and identity. It examines selected novels by Witi Ihimaera and Patricia Grace in order to trace an ever-developing Maori identity that has changed considerably over three decades of the Maori novel. This book demonstrates that an investigation of the construction of identity in literature benefits from a close look at the importance of Maori mythology as well as associated cultural and individual memories. Indicating that Maori fiction has become what Homi Bhabha terms a third space, this book verifies the links between novel, myth and memory with the help of existing research in these areas in order to assess their importance for the reinterpretation of identity. The Maori novels that depict situations reflecting current issues are viewed as an experimental playground in which authors can explore a variety of solutions to tribal, societal and political issues. This study establishes the early novels as reinterpretations of the past and guides to the future, and characterises the more recent novels as representing a move towards empowerment and pioneering that has not yet come to a conclusion.

For us the best thing about this book -apart from the fact that it looks so beautiful-is that every illustration, shows the powerful bond between words and images-a bond that is often dramatic, sometimes affectionate, always passionate. Beautiful illustrations and simple words together convey a message of hope-this book says we can work with our planet, not against it. Mother Earth Needs Our Help! was born out of our desire for children to know the truth about the Earth's condition and about the many simple and 'down to earth' actions, we all can take in helping our "Mother" heal. In order to preserve our environment we must persevere with our actions, no matter how small they might seem to be at times, doing something is better than doing nothing at all! Think of a drop of water, making its way down and into a creek in order to slowly reach the river, like millions of other drops, searching for one destination, the powerful ocean. Like a drop of water committed to being part of this powerful ocean, you too can join us in our efforts to nurture her back to health. This book is for you. Because you matter.
