KittenCat Adventures for a Special Person - Tom Rath
Tom Schultz, publisher at Island Prints in Belle River, has announced the release of KittenCat Adventures for a Special Person by Island writer Tom Rath of Upton.
“This latest book from Island author Tom Rath is a delightful compilation of read-aloud children’s verse, new and old, chronicling the explorations of a young kitten in a big world,” said Schultz. “I realized he had selected photographs of a variety cats to illustrate his stories, in order that young readers could better identify with the character by relating one of the photos to their own pet,” Schultz added.

Wayne Barrett and Anne MacKay
Prince Edward Island - Wayne Barret and Anne MacKay
In Prince Edward Island, Wayne Barrett and Anne MacKay take us on a photographic journey across Canada’s smallest province. Wayne and Anne have spent much of their lives capturing images of the Island and in Prince Edward Island, their love for their province’s natural splendour shines through. Over 75 full-colour photographs reveal the rich colours of a distinctive landscape and the warmth of a proud people. The Island offers an abundance of visual spectacles: the dramatic cliffs of Cape Tryon; the quaint Green Gables Post Office in Cavendish; the sunny hilltop pastures in New Glasgow. The scenes of pastoral beauty—among many others—are presented here.

Quilts of Prince Edward Island: The Fabric of Rural Life - Sherrie Davidson
In September 1991, Sherrie Davidson began undertaking the Heirloom Quilt Survey on Prince Edward Island. Her goal was to document and preserve the rich island history of quilt making from its beginning in the 1700s to1970. After almost twenty years of documenting the story of quilt making on Prince Edward Island, this book, Quilts of Prince Edward Island, is the result. In her quest, Sherrie Davidson visited over one hundred island homes and registered 305 beautiful and stunning quilts, each containing memories, often very personal, of family life on Prince Edward Island down through the years.
