Download or read book EAST OF THE SUN AND WEST OF THE MOON and other Moon Stories for Children written by Various and published by Abela Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2018-02-17 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contained within this volume are the stories of East of the Sun and West of the Moon, Monica the Moon Child and The Swan Maidens – all classic children’s stories from yesteryear which, even today, children want to hear and read. Also included are two poems which relate to the moon - The Man in the Moon and Hey Diddle, Diddle – which can also be considered classic children’s rhymes. While the stories are entertaining and enjoyable to read, the numerous illustrations will fire children’s imaginations and take them into fairy land, where, of course, anything is possible. Nowhere has this “firing of the imagination” been made more apparent than in the entertainments industry with the advent of Green Screen-CGI technology which has enabled big children’s imaginations to run wild and bring all sorts of apparitions to life - especially in the fairy and folk tales genre where we have seen a wholesome revival of interest. The most thoughtful, progressive educators and parents have come to recognize the cultural value of folklore and fairy tales, fables and legends, not only as means of fostering and directing the power of the child's imagination, but as a basis for literary interpretation and appreciation throughout life not to mention increasing the literacy ability of children. So, find that comfy chair, have your child snuggle in and set fire to their imagination with this short collection of MOON STORIES for CHILDREN. 10% of the profit from the sale of this book will be donated to charities, =============== TAGS: Folklore, fairy tales, myths, legends, bedtime, children’s stories, fables, poems, poetry, moon, east of the sun, west of the moon, monica, moon child, swan maidens, man in the moon, diddle, rhymes, entertain, white bear, lassie, castle, north wind, east, south, west, fly, change, silver bell, brother, sister, moonship, balloon, prince, mother, father, kiss, thick wood, forest, old hag, bundle, princess, gold apple, long nose, winter, sleigh, craters, mountains, side of the moon, garden, babies, Gardeness, roses, gloom, face, nurse, hunter, clothes, marry, children, dress, king, queen, six sisters, dolphin, flew, seven Bends, seven Glens, Crystal Mountain, cow, jump, cat, fiddle, dish, spoon, ran away

"Megan Travante, former slave girl, assassin and currently one of the thirteen super-powerful "Key Holders" that control the world-spanning computer network called Mother, has become deeply entrenched in the political infighting that characterizes the New Destiny capital. In that role she is swained by her "very close, personal, friend" Herzer Herrick, the Blood Lord's Blood Lord, who would much prefer to be splitting orc heads or riding dragons. He wouldn't mind so much if he was at least getting some." "When Herzer and Megan are trapped as replacements for the slaughtered first team, life becomes a nightmarish scramble to find qualified personnel and train and prepare for the toughest space-walk of all time. All while being assaulted by giant metallic scorpions and trying to resolve their "close, personal" differences."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book The North Wind and the Sun written by – Aesop and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2021-03-22 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who do you think is stronger – the Sun or the North Wind? They both found themselves in a dispute because they both thought that they were strongest. They saw a traveler who was just passing by and they decided that whoever made the man remove his cloak would be proclaimed the strongest. A winner is declared. Who will it be and what is the moral of the story? Find out in Aesop’s fable "The North Wind and the Sun". Aesop's fables feature animals, legendary creatures, plants, inanimate objects, or forces of nature that speak, solve problems, and generally have human characteristics. All the stories story lead to a particular moral lesson. Aesop (620–564 BCE) was a storyteller that was believed to have lived in Ancient Greece. He is celebrated for a number of fables now collectively known as Aesop's Fables. In the few scattered sources about his life, Aesop was described as a slave who by his cleverness acquires freedom and becomes an adviser to kings and city-states. Although Aesop's existence remains unclear, numerous tales credited to him were gathered across the centuries and in many languages in a storytelling tradition that continues to this day.
