Mae the Mayfly
SLEEPING BEAR PRESS
When Mae the mayfly first hatches she learns she’ll have just a day to enjoy the world.
But soon a hungry trout has her racing for cover! As she peeks from her hiding spot and
notices some of nature’s most beautiful sights, she realizes she must live in the moment
and experience everything the—sometimes scary—world has to offer. This tender story

Memoirs of a Tortoise
SLEEPING BEAR PRESS
Oliver the tortoise has had his human, Ike, for a very, very long time now. In fact, they’re
the same age—80 years old—and practically twins. They both enjoy the slowness of the
garden, cool water from the hose on a hot day, and a nice slice of honeydew melon. But
when Ike stops visiting the garden, Oliver wonders why his pet has left him so soon. So he
makes the long journey to see his mother ten gardens away—she will certainly have the
answer. This tender story reminds us to cherish all the days we have with our pets and
loved ones.
