Book excerpt: "The Crocodile's Smile" Summary of this story: Charlie's story is a moving tale about the power of kindness and how important it is to take care of oneself. Charlie was different from all the other crocodiles in the bush because he always had a smile on his face. He liked helping people and making people happy wherever he went. He became known as the nicest and happiest crocodile in the jungle. Charlie's smile and friendliness were so contagious that they made even the grumpiest creatures happy. They were amazed at how Charlie could make even the worst situations better. As Charlie and his friend, the once-angry crocodile, went on their travels, they met many more animals that needed their help. They were known as the guardians of the bush, and all the animals looked to them for advice and safety. Charlie found out one day that he had been putting other people's needs ahead of his own. He told his friend, and then he took some time off and went on a trip by himself. He wanted to find out what made him happy again and smile again. As he went through the bush, he smiled again as he thought about the things that used to make him happy. Charlie kept helping other people and still had time for himself. He went on trips by himself, exploring the bush and finding new things to love and appreciate. He stayed the happiest and nicest crocodile in the jungle, and all the other animals loved and respected him. In the end, Charlie's actions changed the bush for good. He showed the animals how important it is to be kind and helpful to other people. And he had shown that even small acts of kindness can make a big difference in the world. When Charlie died, the animals in the woods knew that his memory would live on forever. They carried on his tradition of kindness and friendship by spreading happiness and love everywhere they went. How the story started: Once upon a time, Charlie was a nice and happy crocodile who lived deep in the woods. Charlie was a very special crocodile who was different from all the others in the forest. He was known for his big smile, which he always wore no matter what was going on around him. Charlie was nice and kind, which was different from most alligators, who were often thought to be mean and dangerous. Even if they weren't his friends, he was always ready to help any animal in need. Charlie was liked by the animals in the woods because he was always happy and kind. They knew that no matter what was going on, he could make them feel better. Everyone around him felt happy and at ease because of his smile. Charlie was a crocodile, and even though he was friendly, he had to look for his food. He always had a smile on his face, even when he was hunting. He never took more than he needed, and he always left some for the other animals in the woods. Charlie's positive attitude made him popular with the animals in the woods, and it also helped him do well at everything he tried. He was a great hunter who always found the best places to hide when he needed to rest. Charlie's fellow crocodiles in the bush made fun of him because he was nice and smiled. They said he was weak and not a real crocodile. But what they said didn't bother Charlie. He knew that being kind and helping was the right thing to do, and he was proud of who he was. One sunny day, Charlie the crocodile was relaxing in the sun by the river when he heard a huge commotion. He turned his head and paid close attention. It sounded like scared animals running away and screaming. Charlie knew something was wrong and got up to find out what it was. He moved quickly through the thick jungle plants to get to where the noise was coming from. As he got closer, the sounds got louder and faster. Charlie could tell something big was going on because he could hear fear in the animals' sounds. As Charlie finally came out of the bush, he saw a huge, dangerous crocodile with sharp teeth and an angry face. The other animals tried to run away, but they were so scared they couldn't move. Charlie saw that he had to move quickly. He swam up to the angry reptile and said, "Hey, why are you scaring everyone? What's wrong?" The angry reptile said, "I'm mad because I'm hungry and there's nothing to eat around here." "Oh, that's no problem," Charlie said. "There's plenty of food in the jungle, and I'll show you where to find it." The angry reptile asked, "Why are you being so nice to me? Aren't you afraid of me?" Charlie simply said, "No, I'm not afraid of you. I'm happy to help, and I think it's always right to be kind to others." He then led the angry crocodile through the bush and showed him all the different fruits, berries, and plants that he could eat. The angry crocodile couldn't believe how much food was there and how easy it was to find. By the end of the day, the angry crocodile was full and happy. He had never been happy or more thankful before. "Thank you, Charlie. You showed me that there is more to life than being angry and mean. You taught me that being kind and helping others is the right way to live." "I'm glad I could help," said Charlie. "That's what friends are for." From that day on, the angry crocodile was Charlie's friend, and the two of them spent their days exploring the jungle and helping other people. They had made an odd deal. The two crocodiles were complete opposites, but they both loved helping others and being friends. The other animals in the bush were shocked by the change in the angry crocodile. They couldn't believe that the animal, which used to be scary, had become a kind and loving crocodile. The animals quickly got used to the new crocodile, and soon Charlie and his friend were seen as the nicest and happiest crocodiles in the jungle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of the Commissario Ricciardi series “manages to conjure up the terrifying darkness at the heart of a serial killer in this chilling procedural” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). The chaotic, shadowy city of Naples proves the perfect hunting ground for a killer dubbed “The Crocodile” by the press. Like a crocodile, when he devours his own children, he cries. And like a crocodile he is a perfect killing machine: He waits and watches until his prey is within range, and then he strikes. Three young people with very diverse backgrounds have been found murdered in three different neighborhoods, each shot with a single bullet, execution style. While his colleagues see little or no connection, Inspector Giuseppe Lojacono, smells a rat. Once an esteemed member of the mobile unit of the Agrigento police force, Lojacono was accused of leaking sensitive information to the mob and has now lost everything—first and foremost the love of his wife and daughter. But now he’s been given a second chance and a shot at clearing his name. A young magistrate has heard of his preternatural skills and his incredible powers of observation and she thinks a man like him is needed in Naples. So it is that Inspector Lojacono is charged with finding the link between the three dead bodies. At the root of these murders, he will discover, is a pain that still burns, a sense of guilt than cannot be purged, and one all-consuming love. “A wonderfully suspenseful novel in which de Giovanni restores life to the cliché of the world-weary detective.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “Offers an elegant narrative and vividly rendered characters. It’s genuinely seductive.” —Booklist

The Author served for thirty-five years in the ministry, following which he became Director of a charitable foundation with interests in many parts of the world. As such, he spent a lot of time in airplanes. He discovered that writing light poetry was a challenging and enjoyable way to use the time spent in the air.

When the author discovered that there were not many readily available on demand, he simply wrote one. The poems in this little volume are mostly whimsical, occasionally offering a homey moral for the reader to take or leave as he sees fit.

When are you allowed to start swearing? With a torrent of consciousness and an intoxicating coziness, Ducks, Newburyport lays out a whole world for you to tramp around in, by turns frightening and funny. A heart-rending indictment of America's barbarity, and a lament for the way we are blundering into environmental disaster, this book is both heresy―and a revolution in the novel.
Download or read book Save me from the Lion s Mouth written by James Clarke and published by Penguin Random House South Africa. This book was released on 2013-09-18 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Save Me From the Lion's Mouth investigates the increasing conflict between people and wildlife in Africa and what needs to be done about it. It describes the human suffering and perceptions of those who live outside the reserve fences among man-eaters and marauders yet are excluded from the economic benefits accruing from the wildlife around them. It provides evidence of a growing resentment among rural communities, especially near game reserves and warns how it is threatening the existence of Africa’s game reserves. The book suggests that many in the Northern Hemisphere who support African wildlife conservation are blind to the seriousness of the situation. Some African states – notably Kenya and Tanzania – adopt wildlife policies to please donor countries from whom they receive millions of dollars. Thus government policies, many of them patently disastrous and certainly detrimental to rural Africans and to wildlife, are dictated from middle class homes across Europe and America. Fortunately there is a growing international lobby that is seeking solutions.
