A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Clarence Cameron, 61, is a Wisconsin native and longtime resident of Madison. He attended the University of Wisconsin before eventually obtaining a degree in mortuary science at the Wisconsin Institute of Mortuary Science in Milwaukee. A wildlife sculptor since 1965, he has gained a noteworthy reputation for his unique owls. His soapstone sculptures have been selected five times for inclusion in the prestigious Birds in Art exhibit at the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum in Wausau, Wisconsin. His work is included in the museum's collection and that of the Earth and Mineral Sciences Museum and Art Gallery at Penn State University. Photographs of his sculptures were included in the book, Owls of North America, by Jeffrey Whiting. For many years, Cameron designed and created the National Media Owl Awards for the Retirement Research Foundation in Chicago, Illinois. In 2001, he was honored to be the Commemorative Artist for WHA-TV's Art and Antique Auction, an annual fund-raiser for the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) station serving central Wisconsin's 300,000 viewers.His lifelong love of animals and nature has inspired The Joining Tree, his first published novel. He already has in mind one sequel novel and is presently working on a thriller.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Who cares about the rain forest? One boy does, and he works to save it with magic.After a disastrous attempt to scare the Outsiders from the rain forest, the animals seek help from Yoiweta, an old medicine man or Shaman. Approaching manhood, Yoiweta's grandson, Abado, and the animals are sent on a journey to a secret mountain. Guided by a magic emerald and helped by the animals, Abado hopes to find the Wise One, an omnipotent being who grants a unique power to all new Shamans. Abado may ask for any power but only wants a way to save the rainforest. The Joining Tree combines action, danger, romance, and supernatural powers with compassion for the native people and animals of the rain forest. Although written for the young adult, the story would appeal to younger, sophisticated readers and adults, too.
