Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Star Child, a tiny flame of vapor, invisible and timeless, watches the Earth from far, far away. He marvels at the blue swirls of the ocean and the green land, a bright spot turning through the darkness of space. He wants to go to this wondrous place, but he ponders: What will that life be like? "You will be plunged into Earth's river of time," his elders tell the Star Child.

Nivola celebrates the cycle of life. A Frances Foster Book

Book excerpt: At age four, author Jennifer Martins son, Kelly, was diagnosed with a rare inherited metabolic disorder, mucopolysaccharidosis, or MPS, which caused multiple complications throughout his life. He lived until the age of twenty-three, when he died of a sudden heart attack. In Star Child, Martin offers a poignant look at her bittersweet healing journey following her sons death. Martins heartfelt expressions in Star Child celebrate Kellys brief life and give grieving parents solace and support, allowing healing to begin. Star Child includes stories and poems that complement my writing. Each story and each poem were specifically chosen to be included because of their beauty, eloquence, grace, and power. The authors and poets featured here offer a sacred communion with their words, hearts, and the deep understanding of loss, pain, and love. Their words and sentiments echo a familiar song to my broken heart. Different stories, different wordsdifferent but, in the end, the same. In the words of Queen Elizabeth II, Grief is the price we pay for love. Jennifer Martin Praise for Star Child Star Child: A Mothers Journey through Grief, by Jennifer Martin, is a beautifully crafted tribute to a young sons life and death, which lands in the heart gently, like a feather from an angels wing. Maria Housden, author, Hannahs Gift: Lessons from a Life Fully Lived Star Child is a beautifully told story. Jennifer Martin has managed to speak of her deep loss without sentimentality. Instead, she creates space for the universal elements of loss and grief to find expression. Through her words, the tearing apart of one mothers heart moves toward a fierce resolve to find the deeper meanings in love and life. In grief, she writes, Something expands and contracts inside of you. It is a wise image. Then she submits her own pain to the expansion.

Download or read book The Star Child and Other Plays Classic Reprint written by Rita Benton and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Star-Child, and Other Plays These little plays have all been acted by children, mainly for the joy of pageantry, but, in part, to assist in the building of a children's settlement, a House of Happiness, where also they have been performed. The acting time of each play is about forty-five minutes. Eight rehearsals to a play is the average. The simpler the setting, in general, the better! Indoor scenes a plain brown burlap has been found the best for a peasant setting; for kingly scenes have a handsome curtain at the back, a dais and a throne. For out-of-door scenes hang a deep blue curtain; against this, if desired, place real palm, box or bay trees, or have the conventional shapes cut out of wood and painted a Noah's ark green. Although only the first play (Where Love Is, There God Is Also) mentions "Christmas," and three of the others arc Easter plays (The Life Beyond, A Spark Neglected Burns the House, and King Robert of Sicily), nevertheless, each play strives to carry the message of "On Earth, Peace, Good Will Toward Men."

Download or read book The Fisherman and His Soul the Star Child and Other Stories written by Oscar Wilde and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-04-14 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These stories, first told by Oscar Wilde at dinner parties, were originally published in two volumes titled Stories for Children. When asked directly if such intricate stories in the second volume as "The Fisherman and His Soul" were intended for children, Wilde replied, "I had about as much intention of pleasing the British child as I did of pleasing the British public." That disclaimer aside, there is much for adults to like in these deceptively simple tales, which only recently have begun to receive their due as serious literature.
