Island of Grass tells the story of the Cathy Fromme Prairie Natural Area, a 240-acre preserve surrounded by housing developments in Fort Collins, Colorado. This small grassland is a remnant of the once-vast prairies of the West that early European explorers and settlers described as seas of grass. Agricultural land use and urban expansion during the past two centuries have fragmented and altered these prairies. All that remains today are small islands. These remnants cannot support some of the larger animals that once roamed the prairie, but they continue to support a diverse array of plants and animals and can still teach us much about grassland ecology. Through her examinations of daily changes during walks across the Fromme Prairie over the course of a year, Ellen Wohl explores one of the more neglected ecosystems in North America, describing the geology, soils, climate, ecology, and natural history of the area, as well as providing glimpses into the lives of the plants, animals, and microbes inhabiting this landscape. Although small in size, pieces of preserved shortgrass prairie like the Cathy Fromme Prairie Natural Area are rich, diverse, and accessible natural environments deserving of awareness, appreciation, and protection. Anyone concerned with the ecology and conservation of grasslands in general, the ecology and conservation of open space in urban areas, or the natural history of Colorado will be interested in this book.

SIMPLE questions often help us to understand problems better; and I think it indispensable, at the beginning of this work, to ask a question which appears simple in the extreme: "What is grazing?" The answer is generally as follows: "Causing grass to be eaten by an animal." That is correct! But here is another answer which, to my mind, is more realistic: "Causing the grass and the animal to meet." Since this book is almost exclusively concerned with grazing by cattle, I propose the following definition to the reader, requesting him to allow it to become well impressed upon his mind: Grazing is the meeting of cow and grass. It is by satisfying as far as possible the demands of both parties that we will arrive at a rational grazing, which will provide us with maximum productivity on the part of the grass while at the same time allowing the cow to give optimum performance.

Sixteen-year-old Mary Scotford is an orphan who lives with her foster family, the Adams. One night while struggling with all the emotions that accompany the recent loss of her father as well as the uncertainty surrounding her future, Mary decides to take a walk with her dog, Tippy. Soon, Tippy races for a grove of trees surrounding a sinkhole and begins furiously barking. After Mary notices a pulsing, greenish light emerging from the area, she decides to investigate. As she is led to the sinkhole, Mary is mesmerized by a ring of light that seems to be calling to her consciousness, enfolding her in powerful compassion, and inviting her into the sunlit world beyond the ring. After she bravely follows Tippy into the ring, Mary enters a new world that will change her life forever as she transforms into Arbora the Healer. In this intriguing science fiction tale, an orphaned teenager embarks on an unforgettable adventure after she follows her dog into a pulsing ring and meets her destiny.
