Calling for a Blanket Dance
by Oscar Hokeah
“A young Native American boy in a splintering family grasps for stability and love, making all the wrong choices until he finds a space of his own”– Oscar Hokeah’s electric debut takes us into the life of Ever Geimausaddle, whose family–part Mexican, part Native American–is determined to hold on to their community despite obstacles everywhere they turn. Calling for a Blanket Dance is the story of how Ever Geimausaddle finds his way home. Learn more about the book here.

About One Book One Valley (OBOV)
One Book One Valley (OBOV) is back for the 13th year, encouraging all residents to read the same book at the same time to create a Community Book Club.
Each year, The Bookworm of Edwards, Colorado Mountain College Vail Valley, Vail Public Library, Vail Mountain School & Eagle County High Schools team up to promote one book that the entire valley reads together, a reading program called “One Book One Valley”.
We encourage all residents to read the same book at the same time to create a community book club. Programs and events related to the chosen book happen throughout the valley and will engage readers of all ages and interests.
