Book excerpt: "Let me tell you a story." What sentence draws us in with more magnetism? In his book, Rocking Chair Tales, author John William Smith seeks to draw in readers with a collection of short stories intended to light up the imagination and spark conversation. Stories short enough to be read aloud will cause the reader to recall fond memories and perhaps share his or her own stories. Smith's tales, mostly drawn from his childhood, are true, yet they serve as parables because "they give truth flavor by attaching names, faces, and geographical locations to abstract notions and emotional realities." His recollections serve as a powerful tool to recapture those magical moments which lay hidden within our cluttered lives.

Book excerpt: Often it's hard to be different from others-to look different, to have different abilities, or to feel emotions in a different way from everyone else. It's important to accept all people, though, no matter how much they might not be like you. In "Rocking Chair Stories," a wide variety of people and animals experience what it is like to be unlike everyone around them. Brian deals with children who are making fun of the color of his skin. Sara is blind from birth and discovers the world through her other senses. Carolyn is an acrobat who is scared of heights, and Doug is a bully who must find a better way to behave. Charlie the peacock has a plain brown tail, while Pinky the pig has two tails-one more than most pigs! As they make their way in the world, the things that make them stand out from others also make them unique and special. This collection of children's stories explores the lives of people and animals who are not the same as those around them and helps teach the importance of accepting those differences.

Download or read book Aunt Lottie s Rocking Chair Tales written by Gina Hakeem and published by Author House. This book was released on 2009-06-17 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Description: Each story presented is drawn from a multi-colored tapestry of childhood woven from a time when life embraced character and was safe and happy. Each thread, or chapter, weaves a bit of soul into each scene, whether it rings fact or fiction. The characters come to life and share their lessons of faith, kindness and imagination in a very charming and vivid way that children and their parents can relate to as well as remember. Stories range from contemporary morality tales to flights of fantasy that guide and teach in a delightful way, reminding us of time that was gone too quickly. What may we learn from these stories? Practical lessons such as trying new foods (Miracle Soup), dealing with allergies (“…The Sniffit”), Chicken pox (“…Boogie Bug Boy”), Studying and minding your parents resulting in character building(“..Reflection of Jonathan Bundy”), children of faith (“…Young Child Shall Lead Them”), or fantasy mixed with travel, learning new countries and their languages (Mrs. Moffitt and the Magic Chalkboard”). These stories are all delivered with a spoonful of honey and an armful of love. Audience: These stories are mostly focused on children ranging from 7-11 years of age. However the older children will read and explore the excitement on their own. They will learn of new lands, new vocabulary words plus foreign languages in a fun way. Their learning tools are about cause and effect, wisdom, making right choices, travel and just having plain fun. These stories speak to the child in us all and we want to read more about the young characters and their adventures and life lesson.

Book excerpt: THE MAGIC ROCKING CHAIR is a fantasy. It was written as a "read-to" story for 4 & 5 year olds, but has great appeal to youngsters who are able to read on a grade 3 level. Mimi receives a surprise gift from her grandfather. The gift, a rocking chair, has a defect. Mimi believes the "defect" actually gives the rocking chair a magic power. In fact, the magic she discovers has to do with her initial concern for the feelings of others. Her concern & love enables her to have some rather remarkable adventures with many familiar characters that take on human characteristics. A doll, her dog, a frog, an insect, a grumpy cat, & even some of the vegetation, all have something to offer in the way of advice. Their own imperfections help them to seem "real" & at times, quite humorous. Things begin to happen, some remarkable, & some frightening. THE MAGIC ROCKING CHAIR is a story well-suited for the younger child. Mimi & her friends all get help whenever they need it & at just the right moment! THE MAGIC ROCKING CHAIR ends happily. Mimi is not the only one rewarded.
