"Once together, never apart." So begins this folk-style tale of a young twin Sister and Brother living with their aged mountain granny until she sends them off in search of their parents and an answer to the mystery of how, as infants, they were seemingly abandoned. Courage, kindness, loyalty, and magic help reunite the family and revive an ailing natural world. An eco-family tale for children ages 6 to 9.
"The treasure of the story is its connection to fairytales and folklore; for example, the mystical peddler who pops up whenever Brother and Sister are scared, lost, confused, or lonely. Take Me with You When You Go will make a great bedtime story for the older child." -- ForeWord Magazine
"Smoothly written, the story moves at a strong pace.... There is a kindness about the book, realistic conflicts, and incidents of humor. Interesting, expressive illustrations enhance the text. A winner for young readers, or for group audiences.” -- Juneau Public Library
"A magical book...unique...delightful. -- The Old Schoolhouse Magazine.
