An assignment is given to the third grade through the twelfth grade to write a diary when they are caught up with their other schoolwork. Bell writes about her days in the magically hidden land of Whimamity. There, dragons and persons live together in a community that works and plays together. They work together on problems that come up like what to do about the school; it's getting to small for all the students. They have fun at holidays a time when all of Whimamity celebrates in the festivities. Some of the dragons don't fully understand what the holidays are about, but the persons of the land enjoy having the dragons there. Sometimes, Bell writes about the adventures she has in her imagination where she creates her own fun in a little world of her own. Bell writes of her fears mostly of flying, can she keep herself from accidentally getting taken by the wind, and if she does, are the knights close enough to help her down? And what is going on with the gates? What does it mean? Who is the gates for, the Whimamitians or for the outside? Can the fairies fix it? The life of a young dragon in and out of school. The fears, the fun, and the wonder of all a young one can go through in the third grade.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A story on a tragic fate of an artist, thinker and author, Vitaly Gunin, whose works and whose visionary gift have predicted the future, warning about the irreversible consequences of the destruction of our world. Vitaly Gunin (1964-1990) - artist and carver, designer and businessman, poet, visionary, the host of musical programs and professional expert on music, impresario, chairman of the first in Bobruisk (and, probably, in Belarus) versatile cooperative LiK - has lived less then full 26 years, but has achieved during his short life more than others, who went for eternal rest in very old age. The Messenger of Light, and the most wonderful person in my life, he was killed by the System and by the perversity of its representatives (symbolically - by the Evil Forces), and his demise has opened the first page of the beginning of universal Apocalypse. His tragedy and death: it is a cosmic accident of grand scale, and it is not casual that inexplicable, frightening phenomenon were associated with his last days, and first days right after his death. The climate catastrophe and the pollution of the vital environment, which is carrying genetic mutations; the dangers connected with inhuman technologies and AI; and other threats to the very existence of the human race: are the actions of the same forces and human monsters that killed my brother. Vitaly's posthumous tragedy is that his artworks - painting (see the 2nd volume: pictures oil), graphics (3rd volume), woodcarving (4th volume), design and design-architectural works (5th volume), posters and so forth, - remained unclaimed, and become dusty in suitcases and bags, decaying from time. His stories, verses; his horrible and tragic Diary: are not published. Memory of him, the person who did so much for his hometown (Bobruisk): erased from city’s history. About the all-Union rock festival organized by it(him), about premieres of the well-known films, concerts of known stars it is not mentioned anywhere. And even its(his) grave on the Bobruisk cemetery has grown with bushes and a grass, thrown and lonely....

Download or read book A Carnival of Snackery written by David Sedaris and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 754 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice There’s no right way to keep a diary, but if there’s an entertaining way, David Sedaris seems to have mastered it. If it’s navel-gazing you’re after, you’ve come to the wrong place; ditto treacly self-examination. Rather, his observations turn outward: a fight between two men on a bus, a fight between two men on the street, pedestrians being whacked over the head or gathering to watch as a man considers leaping to his death. There’s a dirty joke shared at a book signing, then a dirtier one told at a dinner party—lots of jokes here. Plenty of laughs. These diaries remind you that you once really hated George W. Bush, and that not too long ago, Donald Trump was just a harmless laughingstock, at least on French TV. Time marches on, and Sedaris, at his desk or on planes, in hotel dining rooms and odd Japanese inns, records it. The entries here reflect an ever-changing background—new administrations, new restrictions on speech and conduct. What you can say at the start of the book, you can’t by the end. At its best, A Carnival of Snackery is a sort of sampler: the bitter and the sweet. Some entries are just what you wanted. Others you might want to spit discreetly into a napkin.
Download or read book The Journals written by John Fowles and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-12 with total page 705 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Fowles gained international recognition in 1963 with his first published novel, The Collector, but his labor on what may be his greatest literary undertaking, his journals, commenced over a decade earlier. Fowles, whose works include The Maggot, The French Lieutenant's Woman, and The Ebony Tower, is among the most inventive and influential English novelists of the twentieth century. The first volume begins in 1949 with Fowles' final year at Oxford. It reveals his intellectual maturation, chronicling his experiences as a university lecturer in France and as a schoolteacher on the Greek island of Spetsai. Simultaneously candid and eloquent, Fowles' journals also expose the deep connection between his personal and scholarly lives as Fowles struggled to win literary acclaim. From his affair with Elizabeth, the married woman who would become his first wife, to his passion for film, ornithology, travel, and book collecting, the journals present a portrait of a man eager to experience life. The second and final volume opens in 1966, as Fowles, already an international success, navigates his newfound fame and wealth. With absolute honesty, his journals map his inner turmoil over his growing celebrity and his hesitance to take on the role of a public figure. Fowles recounts his move from London to a secluded house on England's Dorset coast, where discontented with society's voracious materialism he led an increasingly isolated life. Great works in their own right, Fowles' journals elucidate the private thoughts that gave rise to some of the greatest writing of our time.
