Download or read book The Sasquatch at Home written by Eden Robinson and published by University of Alberta. This book was released on 2012-07-15 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The award-winning Indigenous author of Monkey Beach shares tales from her family, her life, and her culture. In March 2010 the Canadian Literature Centre hosted award-winning novelist and storyteller Eden Robinson at the 4th annual Henry Kreisel Lecture. Robinson shared an intimate look into the intricacies of family, culture, and place through her talk, “The Sasquatch at Home.” Robinson’s disarming honesty and wry irony shine through her depictions of her and her mother’s trip to Graceland, the Potlatch where she and her sister received their Indian names, how her parents first met in Bella Bella (Waglisla, British Columbia) and a wilderness outing where she and her father try to get a look at b’gwus, the Sasquatch. Readers of memoir; Indigenous literatures, histories and cultures; and fans of Robinson’s delightful, poignant, sometimes quirky tales will love The Sasquatch at Home. “[Robinson] strikes sweetly at the commonality of people rather than narrowing in on cultural differences. The entire book is fast, colloquial, and engaging; concise enough to be read in one sitting, yet retaining the weightiness of a larger work. Its brevity makes it an ideal re-read and the second reading proves just as entertaining. The funny parts remain funny, the rendering of landscapes evocative and intimate, and the general themes stay relevant. Through rich and often comic dialogue and her painterly descriptions of the northwest landscape, Eden Robinson presents a glimpse into her community with the delicious, whispered quality of a well-told, yet well-protected, family story.” —Cara-Lyn Morgan, The Malahat Review, Winter 2011 “Offers the reader a taste of her skill as a storyteller. The book is a tiny gem. . . . This brilliant little jewel, under fifty pages, offers readers a quick, but intense opportunity to experience the work of a rising Canadian writer. Like her novel, Monkey Beach, the accessibility of The Sasquatch at Home suggests its appropriateness for use in undergraduate courses. Above all, it is an essential acquisition for anyone with an interest in Pacific Northwest or Native Canadian studies, but it is also a find for those who just like a good story.” —Amy J. Ransom, American Review of Canadian Studies

Raised in a secluded topsy turvy world consisting of both dinosaurs and mammals, where fighting for your life against vicious raptors and sabre-tooth felines is almost a daily occurrence. Ab may be the smallest and ugliest Sasquatch in the clan, but blessed with a human mind, he is by far the smartest, bravest and most dangerous member of the clan. Shunned for his 'physical deformities' and often barred from many clan 'rights', Ab becomes a loner whose life is dedicated to protecting the less intelligent members of his clan in hopes of someday gaining full acceptance within the clan. That is until his Sasquatch mother reveals to him with her dying breath he is not 'clan'. He comes from the far off and forbidden land of the 'Hairless Others'. That is why he looks so different from the rest of the clan. She stole him from his true mother when he was an infant just before she died. She tells him his world is through the forbidden crack in the rock and tells him he should go home. Go back to the world he came from. Shocked and confused over this knowledge and devastated over the loss of the only mother he has ever known, Ab finds this forbidden entrance between their two worlds. A dark tunnel through a massive mountain filled with numerous deadly hazards. Stark naked, Ab emerges into the world he was born too, only now as a muscular cross between a caveman and total wild man. A marvel to modern man he is the focal point of numerous scientific and research teams who want to study him. DNA tests along with finger and foot printing reveals his true identity. The son of billionaire parents who own a powerful electronics manufacturing business and who had been accused of and believed to have killed their son as an infant even though they remained steadfast in their story a Sasquatch had stolen him. Sought after and hunted by professional big game hunters for the pure blood sport, it is modern man against prehistoric man in a battle of wits and determination. Especially after Ab unwittingly leads the big game hunters back to his forbidden and lost world with their high powered weapons and modern technology. Now everything he ever knew and understood faced destruction at the hands of these ruthless killers. To insure Ab helps them in their quest to satisfy their lust to kill, they took his true parents hostage to use as bait to draw Ab and the long lost and believed extinct raptors and saber-toothed cats as well as the Sasquatch into their cross hairs for true extinction.

Download or read book You Can t Do That in Canada written by Bev Spencer and published by Scholastic Canada. This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Think Canadians are the logical, rational bunch? The kind who don't overreact? Well, open this book and find out just how weird and wacky some of our laws have been -- and remember, it's kooky enough that the laws were created, but stranger still to think that certain behaviour actually led to their creation! Here are just a few: An old BC law supposedly made it illegal to kill a sasquatch. You can be imprisoned for challenging someone to a duel, or even accepting the challenge. You can get two years in prison for pretending to practise witchcraft (there was a case as recently as 1984!). There is a two-year penalty for offending a public place with a bad smell. In Fredericton, NB, it is against the law to wear a snake. Canada has its share of "Rip Van Winkle" statutes that are still on the books. You Can't Do That in Canada! highlights the wackiest, with thirty-five accompanying cartoons. A section at the end includes a quiz about really strange laws, and kids guess which three are the fakes. The rest, bizarre as they seem, are -- or were -- really on the books.

Download or read book Mysterious Creatures 2 volumes written by George M. Eberhart and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2002-12-17 with total page 772 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive guide to cryptozoology—the quest to identify animals that have not been officially catalogued by science and to place these unknown animals into their proper zoological categories. In this fascinating two-volume encyclopedia, author George M. Eberhart provides a comprehensive catalog of nearly 1,000 cryptids—unknown animals usually reported through eyewitness accounts and not yet described by science. Cryptids are the stuff of folklore, hoaxes, and genuine scientific breakthroughs. There are 400 now-classified cryptids once considered either extinct or pure fantasy. The cryptozoologist's job is to strip away the myth, misidentification, and mystery—and separate fact from fiction. Mysterious Creatures covers everything from dinosaurs and the emala-ntouka, an elephant-killing dinosaur-like animal of central Africa, to searches for the Loch Ness monster, Bigfoot, and other cryptozoological hoaxes. Entries about specific animals include the derivation or meaning of each cryptid's name, its scientific name, variant names, a physical description, behavior, description of tracks, habitat, significant sightings, present status, and possible explanations. Illustrations and photographs accompany many entries. The book also includes resources and references for further information.
