Book excerpt: Seafarer Marlin Bree captures the poetry of the seagull's flight, the majesty of its soaring wings, and its amusing antics as gulls gregariously interact with humans. Through black-and-white digital stop-sequence photography, this tribute introduces their habits and habitats, their special abilities, and their remarkable intelligence. Via detailed drawings and illustrations, Bree examines the gulls' "wings of wonder" and how they achieve their amazing sense of air, control their soaring and hovering, and remain aloft over great distances. The work also recounts fascinating legends that have sprung up over the years about gulls and their mystical symbolism in life and death, as well as lighthearted stories, such as that of Sam, a gull who walks into a seafront store and picks up the same brand bag of chips day after day.

Download or read book Shore Lines written by Edwin Lynn and published by Author House. This book was released on 2011-09-26 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you enjoy the delights of the ocean and revelatory stories found in people's lives, you will want to read Shore Lines: Life Lessons from the Sea. Edwin Lynn draws from his varied careers and a lifetime near the sea to reflect upon our everyday patterns while also capturing the beauty and glory of times at the beach, where our mind is free and our senses liberated. In 27 short essays divided into three sections --Attitude, Adversity, and Gratitude --he creates a connection between the seaside environment and human experiences from which we can all learn important life lessons. He describes what it means to live with change in Crests and Troughs, ways of getting unstuck in Barnacles and Other Grabbers, and reshaping adversity in Greenheads in Season, No Refunds. The giant Under Toad, the tern's aggressive bombardment, and a dreaded shark attack can teach us about our fears, vulnerabilities, and assumptions. Lynn imaginatively and playfully examines the shifting sand dunes, breaking waves, and mysterious cormorants as well as other shore life to discover the lessons they reveal to us. Each story is tied to a seaside image --patterns in the sand reveal a grandmother's kindly wisdom about lasting love, the waters of a marshy maze echo the failures in using the wrong map, and the gull's grittiness and acceptance demonstrate what skills a young couple needs to survive 118 days at sea. Sharing honestly and intimately about family, friendships, and personal experiences, Lynn's writing is accessible and inspirational. His stories are permeated with an exuberance, grace, and gratitude for each day, embodied in his daily mantra that he has embraced from Winslow Homer: The sun will not rise or set without my notice and thanks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Back in the nineteenth century, in a quaint coastal town, a family sailed to Great Island for a picnic. Great Island was a very special place. Nobody lived there. At the tip, sat a beautiful white sandy beach behind which was a thick forest known as the enchanted woods. Almost no one went there, and children told stores of wild goings on in those mysterious woods. After arriving and eating the picnic lunch, the children--Blueberry Girl, Emmett, and Raspberry--asked permission to explore the enchanted woods. Before long, they met Goody Bear and found themselves following this friendly, talking, stout bear deep into the forest, not having a clue where they were going, where they were, or who they were following. What an adventure! A fantasy, this picture book for children shares a story about confronting bullying and resolving conflict.
