By Barbara Wickens

TORONTO (CP) — Which children’s gifts don't need
batteries and never run down?

Books, of course, and here's a selection of books that
are out just in time for Christmas,

Tales the Elders Told: This handsome collection
contains nine traditional tales translated into English
from Ojibway, illustrated with contemporary native art.

The stories explain how bats, butterflies, dogs and

But when he relates several stories his grandfather had
told him — and this takes up 40 of the 107 pages — he
learns he can be different and one of the group at the

same time.

Joan Weir, of Kamloops, B.C. wrote the novel.

The Mighty Mites in Dinosaur Land: Nick, Sophia and
Mark, who can shrink to any size they wish, are already
familiar to Owl magazine readers.

When the Queen of Hearts loses her tarts, its up to the
readers to find them in one of 12 double-page spread
picture puzzles by illustrator Joe Weissman,

Although older readers familiar with the traditional
verses may trip over Pat Patterson's versions, they're
the perfect lead in to the suggested task, such as
counting, matching or finding something. |

The Chocolate Moose: By the time most children are
old enough to get the pun in the title, they're too old for

spiders came to be, why birds go south in winter or how

the fox and wolf became enemies.

They were collected by Basil Johnson, an Ojibway who
is a lecturer at the Royal Ontario Museum's Department
of Ethnology, illustrated by Cree artist Shirley Cheechoo,

and published by the museum.

Two novels published by Douglas and McIntyre Ltd. of
Vancouver for 10-to-14-year-olds are intended to help
children cope with the death of parent and moving toa

new school,

A Perfect Day for Kites: Arno Colin's mother has died

a year before the start of the novel, but Arno also fears he

is losing his increasingly taciturn father.

But Arno, with the help of some new friends in
Brumante, Que., a small village on the St. Lawrence
River where he and his father are spending the summer,
finds the way to make his father happy again.

The book, by well-known Quebec writer Monique
Corriveau, was translated by David Homel.

So, I'm Different: “It's only my parents who are
Indians," says Nicky who only wants to be like the other
kids in his new school. So naturally he's embarrassed
when the teacher asks him to prepare a 40-minute talk on

Indian culture.

This book, by Emily Hearn and. Mark Thurman,
published by Greey de Pencier, is their first full-length
adventure in which they travel back in time 75 million
years to meett he dinosaurs.

They pass on a lot of information on the way. The book
also has a detailed supplement on dinosaurs prepared by
Dale Russell, head of paleobiology, National Museums of
Canada.

The Case of the Seaside Burglaries: Inspector Holmes
of the Halifax police, his dog Sherlock and cat Watson
make their third appearance in this book to solve a series
of thefts at a seaside resort.

Author George Swede abandons one convention of
having the animals talk, so Sherlock and Watson are
sometimes lonley and disappointed that they can't tell
their master what they know.

Nevertheless, they find ways to help Holmes solve the
case while having fun introducing young readers to the

mystery novel.

The following stories are for younger cildren.

The Lie that Grew and Grew: Thurman, who
illustrated the Mighty Mites, goes on his own here to tell
what happens when Douglas the Elephant tells a lie.

Although children need to learn the moral, the book is a

friends after they learn he lied. The pictures are fun and

colorful.

moving an inch, I would always, always be clean. . .

It's ‘Catch 22’
for bank clerk

VANCOUVER (CP) — The
Bank of B.C. will ask the B.C.
Supreme Court to reject a
ruling that the bank's Ab-
botsford branch should prom-
ote one of two union mem-
bers for a loan officer position
at the branch, employee re-
lations manager Ron Muff
says.

The bank will argue that
an arbitration panel headed
by Mervin Chertkow over-,
stepped its juridiction in
making the award, said Muff.

The award held that the
bank “unreasonably, discrim-
inatorily and arbitrarily de-
nied the promotion” of the
two women clerks, members
of the Union of Bank Em-

’

ployees, by seeking to hire an
outside person for the jok
The two: inside employees
had applied for the position.

Implementation of the
award will be delayed pend-
ing the court's decision, said
Muff.

The bank argued before
the panel that would-be loans
officers should first have
worked asa clerk analyst — a
position not available at the
Abbotsford branch.

The arbitration panel ruled
that the absence of a clerk
analyst position placed. the
union members in a “Catch-
22” position where they
would have to leave their
bargaining unit to gain the
required training.
