Download or read book The Christmas Tree Ship written by Carol Crane and published by Sleeping Bear Press. This book was released on 2011-09-19 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On November 21, 1912, the schooner Rouse Simmons set sail from a small northern Michigan town across Lake Michigan. Affectionately dubbed the "Christmas Tree Ship," this was an annual trek for the Rouse Simmons. With its cargo of Christmas trees, the ship was bound for Chicago. There Captain Herman Scheunemann would sell the trees for 50 cents or $1.00 and even gave many away to needy families. But the schooner never makes its destination. The Rouse Simmons, with all hands and cargo, disappears into the cold waters. The ship's wreckage is not found until 1971. Drawing from stories told by her grandfather, author Carol Crane weaves a fictional tale based on the true events of the doomed schooner. And she explains how the captain's widow went on to continue his tradition of delivering holiday trees to Chicago. Carol Crane's many books for Sleeping Bear Press include the best-selling P is for Pilgrim: A Thanksgiving Alphabet and The Handkerchief Quilt.

Download or read book Mandy the Mischievous Elf written by Bill Dale Grizzle and published by . This book was released on 2015-05-07 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Things had been going really well in the Kingdom of Claus for decades now; everyone had become comfortable with that. The Elves were content, toy production was at an all time high, and Santa Claus had so few issues to deal with he had developed the habit of napping in the afternoons, and sometimes he even took the afternoons off. Yep, all was well at the North Pole, but all that was about to change. Lurking deep within one family was a dreaded condition know as mischiefitus; a condition that causes one to act in very odd ways and do unthinkable things that no Elf would ever do. Thankfully there is only one family left at the North Pole that is afflicted by this dreadful condition, and again thankfully mischiefitus only effects the third daughter of a third daughter of a third daughter. But it is now time for the mischiefitus to rear its ugly head. The Kingdom of Clause is caught by surprise as things begin to go wrong in the toy factories and shops, as computer systems go haywire, and as the very meaning of Christmas is threatened. It will take the efforts of everyone at the North Pole to overcome the evil that has taken root in the happiest place in the world. It will require one young Elf girl to be braver than she ever dreamed she could be, on a journey that will take her to a place far from the safety of her home. And it will require the assistance of a stranger; but a true friend of Christmas. Join Santa and Mandy and all the other Elves as they learn life's lessons as they strive to keep Christmas joyful for all.

Download or read book The Church of Cheese written by Carol Miller and published by Gemma. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rare inside look at Roma culture, ritual and belief at its peak in the American Gypsy experience - A Disapora spread over five continents, Gypsies conjure the romance of a nomadic life, a nostalgia for a simpler time. We think of dancing Spanish Gypsies or French jazz guitarists or a Romanian king. Gypsies have yet to enter the American public consciousness, yet they have been arriving since the late sixteenth century. Columbus brought several, forcibly transported to the Colonies, and many Americans today may count, unknown, a Gypsy or two among their forebears. A legacy of misfortune and mistrust lives on in Gypsy blood, and glimpses into their lives are rare. A young anthropologist drawn in by a Gypsy matriarch had no idea her life?s work would be witness to this hidden culture and its dilution over decades of cultural adaptation. From 1966 to 2000 Carol Miller lived among the Machvaia during their Heyday. Here are her stories about creating a bounty of good luck made by good times: three-day weddings, opulent slavi (saint days), baptisms, holidays, parties, and fabulous offerings for the Dead Ones. "The Heyday," this particular heyday, is done, and we will not see its like again.

While on the surface Elfrieda's life is enviable (she's a world-renowned pianist, glamorous, wealthy, and happily married) and Yolandi's a mess (she's divorced and broke, with two teenagers growing up too quickly), they are fiercely close-raised in a Mennonite household and sharing the hardship of Elf's desire to end her life. After Elf's latest attempt, Yoli must quickly determine how to keep her family from falling apart while facing a profound question: what do you do for a loved one who truly wants to die? All My Puny Sorrows is a deeply personal story that is as much comedy as it is tragedy, a goodbye grin from the friend who taught you how to live.
