Items related to Solstice Magic: A Calgary Stampede Adventure
A little known fact about the amazing rodeo athletes of the Calgary Stampede: they are actually rabbits transformed during the summer solstice. True thing. That accounts for their skills. Solstice Magic: A Calgary Stampede Adventure is magical realism for everybody who ever wished to be more than they are. When Zo Luki’s eccentric Baba Dolya and her savage Caucasian Ovcharka come from Ukraine to live with her estranged son’s family on their farm near Edmonton, Alberta, the ensuing chaos catapults the characters into the extreme sport of rodeo at the Calgary Stampede. Good thing Zo has a best friend with an attractive older brother to soften the trauma.

"I feel the sand in my teeth and the dust in my eyes? What an interesting concept for a story line . . . rodeo fans are going to love it!"
-- Tamie Eastman, Calgary Stampede Light Horse Committee
"Solstice Magic provides a thought-provoking, yet entertaining, escape into a world of goddesses, bunnies, Ukrainian-Canadian culture, and the Calgary Stampede. Especially appealing is the intertwining of several contemporary themes--folk rituals, superstition, family heritage, and the declining family farm in Western Canada."
--Radomir Bilash, National Historian for the Ukrainian Canadian Congress
