Book Description
The shy, little firefly is reluctant to shine his light too brightly as he flits around the deep, dark backyard. He’s afraid he’ll become another creature’s tasty, midnight snack. But as the firefly navigates the night, he turns up his light just a little to be able to see his way around. As he does so, he unknowingly helps many creatures by doing what comes naturally to him. A picture book for children, The Deep, Dark Depths of the Backyard explores what a firefly might experience during the night hours in a little girl’s backyard. He discovers the more he shines his light to help others, the more they are able to make their way through the backyard. And as he rests in the early morning hours, he notices the brightest light of all.

Book Description
The daughter of a Chinese mother and a Japanese father, Gail Tsukiyama's The Samurai's Garden uses the Japanese invasion of China during the late 1930s as a somber backdrop for this extraordinary story. A 20-year-old Chinese painter named Stephen is sent to his family's summer home in a Japanese coastal village to recover from a bout with tuberculosis. Here he is cared for by Matsu, a reticent housekeeper and a master gardener. Over the course of a remarkable year, Stephen learns Matsu's secret and gains not only physical strength, but also profound spiritual insight. Matsu is a samurai of the soul, a man devoted to doing good and finding beauty in a cruel and arbitrary world, and Stephen is a noble student, learning to appreciate Matsu's generous and nurturing way of life and to love Matsu's soulmate, gentle Sachi, a woman afflicted with leprosy.
