Song of the Raven: A story for children about life and death in Alaska's wilderness

by Patricia Kilson

Overview

Song of the Raven is a story for children about life and death in Alaska’s wilderness. I originally came up with the idea when I was explaining to my children why our dog Snicker had to be euthanized. I wanted to show children that death is a natural part of life, and although we may feel sad about it, sometimes it is for the best. In the wild, animals depend on the death of another for their own survival. Hopefully, I have been able to show death in a very positive way in Song of the Raven. Patty Kilson

About the Author

Patty (Schrader) Kilson was born in Anchorage, Alaska and has lived there most of her life. Time away from Alaska included the three years her family spent living on a sailboat; traveling from Florida to the Bahamas, Caribbean, through the Panama Canal and up the west coast of Central America, Mexico and the United States to end their journey back in Alaska in the little town of Whittier. She has also spent a few winters in Missouri where she attended Ozark Bible College. Patty enjoys art in all forms and spends her free time drawing, painting with watercolors, and writing. Song of the Raven is her first book. Her second book is Carina, the real-life story of the Schrader family’s three-year exploring adventure while living aboard a 40-foot sailboat.
