her death.
"Barbara Juster Esbensen
is the author of nineteen books, including seven collections of poetry. Her award-winning nature books and retellings of Native
American legends have been honored by the NSTA and the NCSS/CBC as outstanding trade books in science and social studies.
In 1994, she received the NCTE Award for Excellence in Poetry For Children
-- a lifetime achievement award. Her book, DANCE WITH ME, was honored with the 1995 Lee Bennett Hopkins Poetry Award."
My early reading of the L. M. Montgomery books gave me the courage to
play with words. I named a special tree where I would read. I named a certain place down by Lake Monona where I would sit
on the breakwater and think. I named my bedroom.
My bedroom faced west and I called it Castle Afterglow. I made a sign
for the door. The sign had a sunset with dark words in crayon over the pink: "Welcome to Castle Afterglow - Keep Out."
