Download or read book The Goblin Shark Do Your Kids Know This written by Tanya Turner and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-11-20 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you know what a goblin is and what it looks like? A goblin is a type of creepy creature that exists in fairy tales. While dwarfs and gnomes can sometimes be seen in cute drawings, goblins are always scary. Typically, goblins are shown as creatures with long noses and sharp teeth. They certainly don't look like human beings - and they're definitely not humans, either. The Goblin Shark somewhat looks like the impression that people have of a goblin - that's why it was named that way. This strange-looking shark is also called a "living fossil" because it looks like it's dead. Fossils refer to the remains of a dead animal. The thing is - the Goblin Shark looks that way even while it's alive and healthy. You have probably never seen a Goblin Shark at all in your life. It's a creature that lives in the deep blue sea and really, not too many people have seen it face to face. Well, now is your chance to meet the Goblin Shark in the pages of this book. Don't be scared.
Download or read book Goblin Tales written by David Kier and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mortimer is late, and it is nothing new. Not even the most sympathetic soul ever credited this dwarf for being on time for anything. But Mortimer is about to learn a valuable life lesson as he shows up tardy for his passage into adulthood. In his collection of twelve intricate and occasionally provocative short tales discovered in a hollowed-out tree by goblin scholars in their sacred groves, David Kier emphasizes such infallible character traits as honor, integrity, honesty, work ethic, diligence, respect, and individual responsibility. From Cedric the goblin, who has failed at watching over the younger goblins deep in the sparkling forest, to Cleotaxes, a winged horse who learns from a master sorcerer that she must not only deliver an important message but must also carry a man-child on her back for the first time while carrying out her mission, Kier brings to life an incredible fantasy land filled with gnomes, gods, dragons, and great adventures. These treasured tales set inside a dark forest will entertain a wide audience from teens to graybeards while sharing important messages that will lead to a greater understanding of our own civilization.
