Book Description
This story is about how one turtle’s inherently slow qualities were used in a manner to achieve his ultimate goal to be the best. It is to encourage children to slow down and absorb knowledge, than to rush through only to not retain what they’ve learned. It will make those who are slower learners feel that they too can achieve their goals and aspirations in life. It’s important that our children do not feel inferior to others and that our teachers understand that each student learns at a different rate. Captain Howard’s Story Time books are also meant to teach, entertain and excite the imagination of the young reader so that reading may become a lifelong pastime as a source of information and enjoyment.

Green Grass, Running Water is widely considered a contemporary Canadian classic.

Gabriel, a brilliant scientist working for DowSanto, created GreenSweep, and indirectly led to the crisis. Now he has come to see the damage and to kill himself in the sea. But as he prepares to let the water take him, he sees a young girl in the waves. Plunging in, he saves her, and soon is saving others. Who are these people with their long black hair and almond eyes who have fallen from the sky? Filled with brilliant characters, trademark wit, wordplay and a thorough knowledge of native myth and story-telling, this novel is a masterpiece by one of our most important writers.
