Download or read book Of Indigo and Ice written by Danyelle Leafty and published by Curious Leaf Press. This book was released on 2015-10-24 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It isn’t often that a Baba Yaga makes a mistake. And still more seldom when she admits to it. But when the world is on the brink of eternal winter, she’s willing to make an exception. Only Aneira is no longer the mortal girl Baba Yaga spirited away so many years ago. Her heart is completely frozen, and she has cut ties with all she was before. Unfortunately the consequence of her actions is an endless winter that would cocoon the world in ice and snow. Unless they are able to anchor her heart to balance the magics and what is left of her mortality. Only one creature knows how to anchor a heart and banish the winter from it: the great ice dragon Indigo who has been imprisoned in an enchanted slumber. He is willing to help them in exchange for the answers to three riddles of his own. Riddles that are every bit as dangerous as a heart filled with the power of winter and frozen through with ice.

Download or read book Indigo written by Ellen Bass and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A bold and passionate new collection... Intimacy is rarely conveyed as gracefully as in Bass’s lustrous poems.” —Booklist Indigo, the newest collection by Ellen Bass, merges elegy and praise poem in an exploration of life’s complexities. Whether her subject is oysters, high heels, a pork chop, a beloved dog, or a wife’s return to health, Bass pulls us in with exquisite immediacy. Her lush and precisely observed descriptions allow us to feel the sheer primal pleasure of being alive in our own “succulent skin,” the pleasure of the gifts of hunger, desire, touch. In this book, joy meets regret, devotion meets dependence, and most importantly, the poet so in love with life and living begins to look for the point where the price of aging overwhelms the rewards of staying alive. Bass is relentless in her advocacy for the little pleasures all around her. Her gaze is both expansive and hyperfocused, celebrating (and eulogizing) each gift as it is given and taken, while also taking stock of the larger arc. She draws the lines between generations, both remembering her parents’ lives and deaths and watching her own children grow into the space that she will leave behind. Indigo shows us the beauty of this cycle, while also documenting the deeply human urge to resist change and hang on to the life we have, even as it attempts to slip away.
Download or read book The Ice Chips and the Magical Rink written by Roy MacGregor and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you could travel through time, who would you want to meet? Lucas Finnigan eats, sleeps and breathes hockey. With his friends Edge, Swift and Crunch, Lucas plays on his hometown’s rink, dreaming of the day when he knows he’ll make the NHL. But lately money has been tight at home, and, after a major growth spurt, Lucas is forced to wear hand-me-down gear that doesn’t quite fit right. Now he’s not sure he’ll ever make it to the Hall of Fame like his hockey heroes. And that’s not the only problem. With the community arena’s chiller on the fritz, and replacement parts too tough to come by, it looks like Lucas and his friends may be doomed to a season on a plastic rink—or worse, no hockey at all! But with a magical discovery, and some help from one of hockey's greatest players (who was a kid once, too!), their final skate might turn into their first great adventure . . .
Download or read book Of Firebirds and Frost written by Danyelle Leafty and published by Curious Leaf Press. This book was released on 2015-08-20 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aneira thought she had accepted her fate, but the longing for home grows strong enough that she sneaks into the Babas’ cottage to see if she can find a way to spell herself home. Instead, she stumbles in upon a theft in progress. To make matters worse, the Babas had simply been waiting to spring their trap. They need both Aneira and the thief’s help, and they aren’t above threatening life and limb to get it. As before, the Babas offer a choice: retrieve a firebird egg and the maiden they wish to apprentice, and the baby firebird in their possession will be free to find a more hospitable home. Refuse, and the selfsame firebird may well end up plucked and lightly seasoned. The tasks are far from simple—especially when their journey takes them to the heart of Summer’s country. (An unpleasant proposition when your heart is made entirely of frost.) Time grows short, and Aneira must decide if her heart—and the hope of returning home—is worth more than the fate of a baby firebird and a maiden she has never met. The choice she makes will set her on a course that will either save who she is or destroy who she has the potential to become.
