Synopsis

A little known fact about the amazing rodeo athletes of the Calgary Stampede: they are actually rabbits transformed during the summer solstice. True thing. That accounts for their skills. Solstice Magic: A Calgary Stampede Adventure is magical realism for everybody who ever wished to be more than they are. When Zo Luki’s eccentric Baba Dolya and her savage Caucasian Ovcharka come from Ukraine to live with her estranged son’s family on their farm near Edmonton, Alberta, the ensuing chaos catapults the characters into the extreme sport of rodeo at the Calgary Stampede. Good thing Zo has a best friend with an attractive older brother to soften the trauma.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Jean Stringam counts her characters among her list of friends and solves plots during breakfast, lunch, and dinner; however, recently she has been impressed with how numbers describe life – and we’re not talking just the bank balance. The number five currently figures strongly in her life since she has recently published five books, has earned her living in five different careers, has lived in five countries, and has five sisters, five children, and five university degrees. Perhaps a few lists would be helpful: • Five books published – for titles and descriptions, please go to her Home page at http://jeanstringam.com • Five different careers – Professor of literature, piano teacher, actor (member of SAG), secretary, choir conductor/opera chorus pianist/church organist • Five countries – Canada, France, China, England, United States (but she’s only been a citizen of two) • Five sisters – learned more than she thought possible • Five children – learned more than she ever wanted to know (about love) • Five degrees – Ph.D. University of Alberta, B.Ed. University of Calgary, M.A. & B.A. Brigham Young University, ARCT Royal Conservatory of Music of Toronto.
