Download or read book Into the Up written by Wren Morrison and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-15 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Story Synopsis: Maggie was sleeping peacefully when her father woke her up, stuffed her into a rocket and shot her into space. Alone and confused, she sets off on an epic adventure to find a way home and rescue what has been lost. Along the way, Maggie discovers strange creatures, dangerous enemies and finds out more about herself than she ever thought possible. Every new planet brings peril and now she must confront the greatest challenge of her young life to save herself, Earth, and perhaps even the entire universe. About "Into the Up": Created by a ten year old and her dad, "Into the Up" is a remarkable, exciting and deeply moving story extracted directly from the imagination of youth. Written over the course of two years and finished during the pandemic quarantine of 2020, it tells the story of a young girl, separated from her family and suddenly plunged into a magical adventure overflowing with fantastic characters, quirky humor, and very real danger. The Whole Story (from Wren's father): The story of how "Into the Up" became a book is an interesting one. My eight year old bookworm of a daughter started coming home from school with pages of writing. This wasn't entirely unusual, as her mother is a voracious reader and books have always been a big part of her life. But this wasn't just writing. It was a story. So I began typing it out, intending to make something she could share with her own children one day. As time passed, the story continued to gain structure and relate to her everyday life. Bullies became monsters and toys became allies. This led to the most wonderfully odd conversations about story structure, string theory and multidimensional space travel (you know, the normal father-daughter stuff). It was especially fascinating to watch her developing creativity as a tool to express herself. And so it went, for a year or more as the story grew, day by day, page by page. Then the pandemic of 2020 happened. We suddenly found ourselves in quarantine with time on our hands. A father with a background in computer art, a brilliant bookworm of a mother and an incredibly creative kid. Isolated together. Day after day. So we got to work... editing, polishing and creating what became "Into the Up". It was very much a team effort in the end, but most of it remains Wren's creation. We sincerely hope that you like it and find something meaningful within its pages. My hope is that my daughter has learned the importance of applied creativity and the possibility of the difficult. The time we spent creating it will truly be a highlight of my life as the fantastically lucky father of one fantastically creative, remarkable kid.

Download or read book A History of Childhood written by Colin Heywood and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-12-08 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colin Heywood's classic account of childhood from the early Middle Ages to the First World War combines a long-run historical perspective with a broad geographical spread. This new, comprehensively updated edition incorporates the findings of the most recent research, and in particular revises and expands the sections on theoretical developments in the 'new social studies of childhood', on medieval conceptions of the child, on parenting and on children’s literature. Rather than merely narrating their experiences from the perspectives of adults, Heywood incorporates children’s testimonies, 'looking up' as well as 'down'. Paying careful attention to elements of continuity as well as change, he tells a story of astonishing material improvement for the lives of children in advanced societies, while showing how the business of preparing for adulthood became more and more complicated and fraught with emotional difficulties. Rich with evocative details of everyday life, and providing the most concise and readable synthesis of the literature available, Heywood's book will be indispensable to all those interested in the study of childhood.

Download or read book The Wrong Stars written by Tim Pratt and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philip K. Dick Award Finalist A “ridiculously fun” series debut “with a well-thought-out space opera setting and lots of fancy reveals”—from a Hugo Award winner (Charlie Jane Anders, author of All the Birds in the Sky). A ragtag space crew discovers alien technology that could change the fate of humanity—or awaken an ancient evil that could destroy all life in the galaxy. The shady crew of the White Raven run freight and salvage at the fringes of our solar system. They discover the wreck of a centuries-old exploration vessel floating light years away from its intended destination and revive its sole occupant, who wakes with news of First Alien Contact. When the crew informs her that humanity has alien allies already, she reveals that these are very different extra-terrestrials—and the gifts they bestowed on her could kill all humanity, or take it out to the most distant stars.

Download or read book Doctor Hudson s Secret Journal written by Lloyd C. Douglas and published by Alien Ebooks. This book was released on 2023-08-17 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Here is the journal which ultimately proved the motive force for The Magnificent Obsession, the journal as it was set down by Doctor Hudson himself. One feels that he must have been a real person (or that at any rate, in his fictional being he represented the personification of someone’s experience and thought). Here we learn whence came the power—the inner strength through which he built spiritual, physical and worldly success. Here we trace the various experiments which proved his own theory. And here too we follow his opinion on a world facing much of what our world is facing today. This gives the book not only the customary hypodermic that Doctor Douglas so ably administers, but a timeliness that is not to be ignored. There is no one writing today who can put more punch into a sermon—without making one conscious it is a sermon." —Kirkus Review Lloyd C. Douglas was an American minister and author born in Indiana in 1877. He was married and had two children. He did not write his first novel until the age of 50 but was considered to be one of the most popular writers of his time. His works usually had a moral and religious tone. Two of his best known works were The Robe and The Big Fisherman, which were made into major motion pictures. The Robe, written in 1942, sold over two million copies in hardcover alone. It held the number one position on the New York Times Best Seller list for over a year and remained on the list for an additional two years. The film version of The Robe hit the screen in 1953 and starred Richard Burton.
