Book excerpt: Enchanted prince or just a plain old frog? Pucker up, princesses! There's only one way to find out... Fairy tales are just stories--or so Princess Martha believes. But when her sisters meet a talking frog, they're convinced that giving him the royal treatment will turn him into Prince Charming. After all, that's what happens in their story books. Martha isn't so sure. The more she sees of Prince Ribbit, the more suspicious she becomes. Armed with the facts, Martha sets out to expose Prince Ribbit and prove to her sisters that "just because it's in a book doesn't mean it's true." But before "The End," Princess Martha might just learn that lesson for herself! Jonathan Emmett's clever twist on the "The Frog Prince" pits a spunky, bespectacled princess against a sly amphibian to teach a charming lesson on the pitfalls of trusting everything you read

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A group of frogs are living happily in a peaceful pond, until they discover a surprise visitor: a little pink pig. Sitting contentedly on a rock in the middle of their pond, the pig opens his mouth and says: RIBBIT! The frogs are bewildered at first, and then a bit annoyed—"What did that little pig just say?", "Does he think he's a frog?", "Is he making fun of us?" Soon the pig draws the attention of all the nearby animals; everyone is curious to know what he wants! After much guessing (and shouting) and a visit to the wise old beetle, the animals realize that perhaps the pig was not there to mock them afterall—maybe he just wanted to make new friends! But is it too late? This is a warm, funny, and beautifully illustrated story of friendship, with boisterous RIBBIT!s throughout—perfect for reading aloud.

Download or read book The Enchanted Screen written by Jack Zipes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-01-27 with total page 894 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Enchanted Screen: The Unknown History of Fairy-Tale Films offers readers a long overdue, comprehensive look at the rich history of fairy tales and their influence on film, complete with the inclusion of an extensive filmography compiled by the author. With this book, Jack Zipes not only looks at the extensive, illustrious life of fairy tales and cinema, but he also reminds us that, decades before Walt Disney made his mark on the genre, fairy tales were central to the birth of cinema as a medium, as they offered cheap, copyright-free material that could easily engage audiences not only though their familiarity but also through their dazzling special effects. Since the story of fairy tales on film stretches far beyond Disney, this book, therefore, discusses a broad range of films silent, English and non-English, animation, live-action, puppetry, woodcut, montage (Jim Henson), cartoon, and digital. Zipes, thus, gives his readers an in depth look into the special relationship between fairy tales and cinema, and guides us through this vast array of films by tracing the adaptations of major fairy tales like "Little Red Riding Hood," "Cinderella," "Snow White," "Peter Pan," and many more, from their earliest cinematic appearances to today. Full of insight into some of our most beloved films and stories, and boldly illustrated with numerous film stills, The Enchanted Screen, is essential reading for film buffs and fans of the fairy tale alike.

Book excerpt: In this fairy tale Regency romance by USA Today bestselling and HOLT Medallion winning author BREE WOLF, an unconventional miss and a stiff gentleman come to see that together they are the perfect match. A barefoot maiden. A painfully proper gentleman. And a friendship most unexpected. NATHANIAL CASWELL no longer wants anything to do with women. Or marriage. Or love. Especially love! After his fiancée leaves him for another, Nathanial is a broken man, his thoughts dominated by doubts and regrets. He no longer sees any beauty in life, certain it will always be thus. However, at his brother’s wedding celebration, Nathanial’s life is turned upside down for a second time. A young woman with raven-black hair and insightful brown eyes approaches him and offers to be his friend. No matter what he does, Nathanial cannot sway her. She insists on being his friend, no more and no less. Simply a friend. Nathanial has never been friends with a woman, but what does he have to lose? MISS CHARLAINE PALMER knows the meaning of pain and loss, and the moment she spots Nathanial Caswell, she knows that he needs her. He needs her to be his friend. And so, she teases him (as a friend would) and riles him (as a friend should). She forces him out of the house and drags him to a masquerade. She pulls him onto the dance floor and urges him along on a frog hunt. She pesters him until he relents, finally loses his shoes and walks barefoot through the lush summer grass. And when Nathanial begins to smile again, his dazzling blue eyes lighting up with joy once more, Charlaine realizes that she just might want more than friendship from Nathanial. But what if he doesn’t? Well, Charlaine has never been one to give up, and she will not start now.
