Download or read book Overheard on a Saltmarsh written by Marcia Santore and published by Marcia Santore. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A goblin is happily making salt-crystal "bling" for himself, until he spots the nymph's green glass beads and is overwhelmed by desire for them. He asks for the beads, he demands the beads, he whines and begs for the beads. But the nymph has her own purpose for the beads, using them to do her science-magic ... Marcia Santore's colorful pictures retell the story of Overheard on a Saltmarsh, introducing Harold Monro's beloved poem to a new generation of children, while raising an important question: Just because some guy asks you for something, does that mean you have to give it him? Children (and adults!) will identify with the envy and desire of the tantruming goblin on the one hand, and with the serious-minded work of the gentle but firm nymph. The book also provides an opportunity to talk with children about when sharing is important and when maintaining personal boundaries is important, as well as the difference between "want" and "need." And that sometimes the right answer is "No." Don't miss the salt crystal-making activity in the back!

Download or read book The Green Stone written by Graham Phillips and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1979, a team of investigators working for a magazine based in the Midlands of England followed a trail of cryptic clues to discover a hidden green gemstone once possessed by Mary Queen of Scots and a secret society called The Order of Meonia. Lost for over three-and-a-half centuries, the stone was said to hold ancient supernatural power. When the relic was taken to the offices of the magazine, an old Victorian house in the English town of Wolverhampton, inexplicable events, witnessed by dozens of observers, began to occur. -An unexplained dense, incense-smelling smoke filled the entire building each night as darkness fell. -The mysterious sound of footsteps, eerie noises and unearthly voices drove terrified visitors away. -Objects began to move and be thrown around, seemingly of their own volition, and an odious blue, gelatinous substance oozed from the walls. -An ominous, dark, faceless figure appeared and disappeared before the very eyes of those involved. -The sleeping bag of a member of the team spontaneously combusted as he slept in the building overnight. -Ultimately, nine people stood witness to hellish, unearthly cries, and bright balls of fiery light exploding over a nearby wood, when the awesome power of the stone was finally unleashed. The Green Stone is not only a spellbinding real-life historical detective story, but one of the most extraordinary true tales of the paranormal ever told. Augmented with four dozen additional, previously unpublished illustrations and photographs, this special 40th anniversary edition has been revised and updated and includes a new introduction by Graham Phillips. "One of the most remarkable true stories I have ever read." Weekend "If you only read one book in your life, read this one." Psychic News "A thrilling paranormal adventure." Today
Download or read book Ancient Mesopotamian Materials and Industries written by Peter Roger Stuart Moorey and published by Eisenbrauns. This book was released on 1999 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first systematic attempt to survey in detail the archaeological evidence for the crafts and craftsmanship of the Sumerians, Babylonians, and Assyrians in ancient Mesopotamia, covering the period ca. 8000-300 B.C.E. As creators of some of the earliest farming and urban communities known to us, these people were among the first pioneers of many crafts and skills that remain fundamental to modern ways of life. Many of the raw materials for crafts had to be imported from outside the river valley of the Tigris and Euphrates, providing an unusually sensitive indicator of the commercial and cultural contacts of Mesopotamia. In this book, Dr. Moorey reviews briefly the textual evidence, and then goes on to examine in detail the material evidence for a wide range of crafts using stones, both common and ornamental, animal products--from hippopotamus ivory to ostrich egg-shells--ceramics, glazed materials and glass, metals, and building materials. With a comprehensive bibliography, this will be a key work of reference for archaeologists and those interested in the early history of crafts and technology, as well as for specialist historians of the ancient Near East.
