Ron Nordyke Publishes First Book

There’s a first time for everything.  Have you ever said, “I should write a book.”  I’ve said that many a time, but I actually only did it once. 

A long time ago Ron Nordyke said that to his very small granddaughter and his mind began to wander off like it will do.  All at once a story began to come to me.  To make a very long story short, he wrote things down, and changed it, and I began to draw and take pictures, and rewrite, and draw and paint, and ask questions, and ask advice and try to get the pictures to dovetail with the text.

I finally got my printed published copies a few months ago.  My granddaughter whose birth name Eaglehorse, is now in High School.  The title of the book is EagleHorse, the tale of a native American girl , Little Red Moon, who loves horses, and her dreamlike journey with a horse as guardian and their eagle-guide.  It is a children’s book written and illustrated by Ron Nordyke.  Every page is a full color painting.
