Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you could be a pirate and have an adventure, what would it be like? Would you take a reliable robot pal along for the ride, or be accompanied by a crew of mice? Would you encounter an enormous, hungry shark, or would your ship get destroyed in a colossal storm? How would the story end ­­­­– with you saving the day and finding a chest filled with precious jewels, or with you being swallowed by a giant whale? In You’re the Hero: Pirate Adventure, children are the creators of their own stories. As they make their way through the book, readers make choices to decide how their adventure will evolve. From selecting what kind of hero they want to be and where they want to visit, to choosing a dangerous (yet exciting) disaster to face and deciding on how their story will end, the reader is in control of the action from start to finish. Each spread is packed full of vibrant, fun illustrations that the reader will use as a prompt to make their stories from. The book promises hundreds of choices to mix-and-match, meaning that the child can create an almost unlimited amount of narratives, time and time again!

Download or read book Voltaire Almighty written by Roger Pearson and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2010-12-15 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During much of his life Voltaire's plays and verse made him the toast of society, but his barbed wit and commitment to reason also got him into trouble. Jailed twice and eventually banished by the King, he was an outspoken critic of religious intolerance and persecution. His personal life was as colourful as his intellectual one. Voltaire never married, but had long-term affairs with two women: Emilie, who died after giving birth to the child of another lover, and his niece, Marie-Louise, with whom he spent his last twenty-five years. With its tales of illegitimacy, prison, stardom, exile, love affairs and tireless battles against critics, Church and King, Roger Pearson's brilliant biography brings Voltaire vividly to life.

Download or read book Arctic Adventure written by Peter Freuchen and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1956, this book is a memoir by Danish explorer Peter Freuchen, a close friend and travel companion of Arctic legend Knud Rasmussen, and ended up living in Greenland for fifteen years, 800 miles from the North Pole—adopting the native ways of life, marrying an Inuit woman, and having two children along the way. Arctic Adventure is filled with tales of seal and polar bear hunts, enduring starvation, encountering people who had resorted to cannibalism, and the stirring experience of seeing the sun again after three months of winter darkness. Rich in human saga, Freuchen’s warmth, wit, and literary talent make this recollection of real-life adventure stories a stand-out. “Except for Richard E. Byrd, and despite his foreign beginnings, Freuchen was perhaps better known to more people in the United States than any other explorer of our time.”—Evelyn Stefansson, The New York Times “[A] formidable and fascinating man”—Harriet Baker, AnOther Richly illustrated throughout with maps and black-and-white photographs.

Download or read book The Littlest Viking written by Alexandra Penfold and published by Knopf Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 2018-01-02 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hilarious story about what happens to the littlest and loudest Viking when an even littler and louder Viking arrives, perfect for fans of The Princess and the Pony and I Don't Want to Be a Frog. Sven might be the littlest Viking, but he has no trouble making himself known. He has the loudest warrior cry and the fiercest set of teeth. He loves to pillage and plunder. But there's a new kid in town--a warrior princess, who is smaller than Sven and even louder. What's a little Viking to do? "Penfold folds in fun ancient analogues to tried-and-true methods of appeasing cranky little ones, and Roxas's liberal use of a color perhaps best described as neon snot brings a punk edge to her scenes of Viking family life. Irreverent yet tender."--Publishers Weekly, Starred review "A warm tale of family togetherness."--Kirkus "A spirited tale about stopping a tantrum with a story, perfect for storytime or one-on-one sharing."--SLJ
