Download or read book 52 Bedtime Stories written by Butch Spillman and published by . This book was released on 2017-12-17 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all have heard "the moral of the story is ..." and while this is not a book of Bible stories per se, these short bedtime stories do teach Christian values. Some of these stories address Lying, Humility, Kindness, Stealing, Obedience, Envy, Love, Honoring Parent's, Knowing God, Serving Others, Foul Language, Pride, etc. etc.I elected to not fill each page with illustrations or photos. Leaving you Parents to fill in the blanks, expand little imaginations and answer their questions. I intended this to be quality time spent with the kids.Note: This book is for 4-10 year-olds and probably not best for the little toddlers. My hope is that God blesses you and the children together at story time. Butch Spillman

Download or read book Joy written by Erin McGraw and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “McGraw is wise and occasionally laugh–out–loud funny, with a seventh sense for the perfect turn of phrase . . . This quintessential collection of stories serves as an homage to the form while showcasing McGraw’s stunning talent and deep empathy for the idiosyncrasies, small joys, and despairs of human nature." —Publishers Weekly (starred and boxed review) In Joy, narrators step out of themselves to explain their lives to us, sometimes defensively, sometimes regretfully, other times deceitfully. Voices include those of the impulsive first–time murderer, the depressed pet sitter, the assistant of Patsy Cline, the anxiety–riddled new mother, the aged rock–and–roller, the girlfriend of your husband—human beings often (incredibly) unaware of the turning points staring them in the face. "How can stories this brief be so satisfying? . . . [McGraw] deals with the profound, the dire, the mundane, and the ridiculous, paying particular attention to relationships between parents and children, siblings, spouses, criminals, and their victims. While some stories are meant purely to amuse, many are intense and beautiful . . . Fifty–three gems that demonstrate all the things a short story can do. Wow." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Download or read book Fifty Two Stories written by Anton Chekhov and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the celebrated, award-winning translators of Anna Karenina and The Brothers Karamazov: a lavish volume of stories by one of the most influential short fiction writers of all time Anton Chekhov left an indelible impact on every literary form in which he wrote, but none more so than short fiction. Now, renowned translators Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky give us their renderings of fifty-two Chekhov stories. These stories, which span the complete arc of his career, reveal the extraordinary variety and unexpectedness of his work, from the farcically comic to the darkly complex, showing that there is no one single type of “Chekhov story.” They are populated by a remarkable range of characters who come from all parts of Russia and all walks of life, including landowners, peasants, soldiers, farmers, teachers, students, hunters, shepherds, mistresses, wives, and children. Taken together, they demonstrate how Chekhov democratized the form. Included in this volume are tales translated into English for the first time, including “Reading” and “An Educated Blockhead.” Early stories such as “Joy,” “Anguish,” and “A Little Joke” sit alongside such later works as “The Siren,” “Big Volodya and Little Volodya,” “In the Cart,” and “About Love.” In its range, in its narrative artistry, and in its perceptive probing of the human condition, this collection promises profound delight.

Book excerpt: A lonely boy’s new pet grows into a rather large dilemma—and a Thanksgiving parade offers an uplifting solution—in this charming tale from the author of The Boy and the Airplane and The Girl and the Bicycle. When Leonard takes a shortcut through the park, he finds an egg and takes it home, where it hatches into a lizard (or so Leonard thinks). Leonard names his new pet Buster and takes him all around the city: on the subway, to the library, to a baseball game, and more. But Buster keeps growing and growing—and Leonard gets the sense that Buster is longing for something Leonard can’t provide. Before long, Buster becomes too big to keep, and Leonard realizes he needs to set Buster free. So Leonard comes up with an inventive plan, one that involves all the balloons Leonard can find and the annual Thanksgiving parade, in an imaginative plot twist that will spark readers’ imaginations—and touch their hearts.
Download or read book 52 Spurgeon Stories for Children written by Tony Hutter and published by Anchor Books. This book was released on 2012 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, sequel to 'How a spider saved a man's life', began as a series of children's talks based on the life of C.H. Spurgeon, each one teaching a particular truth rooted in Scripture. Spurgeon himself had a great love for children. He founded an orphanage, and regularly visited the children, knowing them all by name. Once, when Spurgeon was away in France, a boy in the orphanage died. Spurgeon then wrote to all the boys in the orphanage, 'I cannot bear to think of one boy going from the orphanage to hell; that would be terrible indeed! I often think about you all. I want to see you all happy here and hereafter.' This book is written with the hope and prayer that children may be led by the Lord to find salvation in Christ, and learn truths from the Bible that will help them to live for His glory.
