Book excerpt: It is just a couple of days before Christmas at Bird Scratch Ranch. Twin goats Hans and Greta wander around the farmyard taking in all the excitement of the other animals as they prepare for Christmas. They are confused and do not understand what all the excitement is about. They have never heard of this thing called Christmas or what presents are. There is even talk of someone named Santa Claus that they have never met. As they head to the barn to ask their mom about this Christmas thing, they run into Ben the guard dog. When they tell him that they do not understand what Christmas is all about, Ben tells them that back when he was a young pup, he did not know what it was either until his mom told him a story about Christmas. Though he does not have time right now, he promises to tell them the story on Christmas Eve. On Christmas Eve, Ben sets Hans, Greta, and some of their friends down in the barn and tells them the story his mom once told him. The story of the very first Christmas.

Download or read book Bedtime Stories for Dogs written by Leigh Anne Jasheway and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tales in Bedtime Stories for Dogs are written just the way dogs like things—they're short and simple, they have happy endings, they usually involve food, and they frequently refer to things that smell really awful. Each one of these stories was proofed (and woofed) by the author's two wiener dogs: "If they didn't give a story two paws up and two tails wagging, it was back to the drawing board," she says. This is the perfect treat for anyone: *Whose dog has control of the remote (and flips when watching dog food commercials) *Whose dog occasionally allows him to sleep in the bed (but only if he doesn't hog the covers!) *Who doesn't even notice the dog hairs in their food *Who carries their dog when he gets winded Anyone who has a canine companion will want this charming book. It's a bow-wow bedtime bible!

Book excerpt: After the Forest is a dark and enchanting fantasy debut from Kell Woods that explores the repercussions of a childhood filled with magic and a young woman contending with the truth of “happily ever after.” Ginger. Honey. Cinnamon. Flour. Twenty years after the witch in the gingerbread house, Greta and Hans are struggling to get by. Their mother and stepmother are long dead, Hans is deeply in debt from gambling, and the countryside lies in ruin, its people starving in the aftermath of a brutal war. Greta has a secret, though: the witch's grimoire, hidden away and whispering in Greta's ear for the past two decades, and the recipe inside that makes the best gingerbread you've ever tasted. As long as she can bake, Greta can keep her small family afloat. But in a village full of superstition, Greta and her mysteriously addictive gingerbread, not to mention the rumors about her childhood misadventures, is a source of gossip and suspicion. And now, dark magic is returning to the woods and Greta's magic—magic she is still trying to understand—may be the only thing that can save her. If it doesn't kill her first. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Through a remarkable coincidence, they found a willing and capable person to effect the sting and be as tough as required.

His body was as hard as steel and his mind seemed to understand how to deal with undesirable people. Notwithstanding those traits, he was also a generous benefactor to the downtrodden and he routinely put his life and resources on the line when required. His was a most unusual ministry and it intrigued his hosts, who also served mankind in a more conventional manner.

Download or read book The Sorcerer s Apprentice written by Jack Zipes and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-09 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A diverse new anthology that traces the meaning and magic of the sorcerer’s apprentice tale throughout history “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” might conjure up images of Mickey Mouse from the Disney film Fantasia, or of Harry Potter. As this anthology reveals, however, “sorcerer’s apprentice” tales—in which a young person rebels against, or complies with, an authority who holds the keys to magical powers—have been told through the centuries from classical times to today. This collection brings together more than fifty sorcerer’s apprentice stories by a plethora of writers, including Ovid, Sir Walter Scott, and the Brothers Grimm. In an extensive introduction, fairy-tale scholar Jack Zipes discusses the significance of the apprentice stories, the contradictions in popular retellings, and the importance of magic as a tool of resistance against figures who abuse their authority. Twenty specially commissioned black-and-white illustrations by noted artist Natalie Frank bring the stories to visual life.
