Book Description
Boko is a book. He no longer lives in the children’s section of the library but has been returned to his original owner, Emily, who, with her two grandchildren Ella and Peter and their friend Stephen, has discovered that Boko can talk, and he tells them of his adventures. Emily has made a big red tote with a clear window so that Boko and his two book friends Sylvie and Big Book can go with them to visit a friend of Emily’s who has a farm and where they intend to have a picnic. Previously, the books have always been in backpacks or suitcases and have seen very little, but this time they are excited as they can see where they are going and have a real adventure when a goat runs off with the bag while Gran and the children are enjoying their lunch! They have fun visiting all the animals, and Sylvie names a calf.

Book Description
Being a true lover, I was inspired to write a story of Boko after observing the way in which people in waiting rooms, airports, and trains unwittingly mistreat their magazines and particularly books. During Boko's travels, he experiences being "hurt" many times, and by weaving these things into his story, I hope that readers will be reminded to value and respects their books throughout their lives.

The Fellowship of Song
Author: Ginette Dunn
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317357760
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
Originally published in 1980. Song is perhaps the strongest form of traditional culture. Its vigour and energy represent the power of the community from which it springs. This book focuses on traditional singing in two small English villages. It studies in detail an activity which goes to the core of the communal life in any village and demonstrates how song becomes the lifeblood of the traditions of rural life. In many ways traditional singing is highly subversive because its practice is an affirmation of community and a denial of the fragmentation of modern society. The songs sung, those remembered, the singers now dead whose lives are recalled each time an old favourite is performed, all connect the present with the past. The primary aesthetic concern within these singing traditions is that a man should sing, whatever the objective quality of his performance; and a song should tell a good story. The individual singer assumes a special role in performance since he becomes spokesman for a group and gives voice not only to personal but also to social concerns, dynamics and emotions.
