Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this unique collection, Richard Lewis has gathered some of the poignant and insightful ways children have viewed not only the many pleasures of their own playing, but the very life of play as it takes place within the natural world and the universe at large. Selected from the results of an Arts and Education project of the Touchstone Center, these vibrant, poetic writings and artwork reinforce, once again, the necessity of play as a cornerstone of childhood - and the gift of every child to use their playing to shape their world - with imaginative artistry, freshness and exhilaration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Madge Cohen does not regret her marriage to a man nearly twice her age, but looks forward to the day she is able to remarry. Young and lively, Madge was forced to marry Peter Cohen, a man nearly old enough to be her grandfather. While his wealth affords Madge new and greatly appreciated privileges, she finds Mr. Cohen to be boring. While Madge dreams of all the exciting things she could do with a younger husband, she decides to study music, so she can channel her unspent energy into something other than daydreams. Though Madge is forced to wait for love, she is happy to help find it for her friends, especially Lance, Mr. Cohen’s protégé. Determined to watch over Lance to ensure he does not make any costly mistakes, Madge and Lance grow to be close friends who support each other without conditions. However, when Lance becomes fascinated with Miss. Shore, a mysterious and blunt woman, Madge has her doubts. After Lance finds Miss Shore homeless and alone, but oddly stoic, he asks Madge to help her, hoping to get to know Miss Shore better. As a stubborn woman, Madge has a difficult time discarding her original ill impression of Miss Shore. Still, she agrees to help Lance grow closer to her, inviting Miss Shore to stay in the Cohen manor for a time. As the arrangement unfolds, Madge becomes increasingly concerned about the mysterious woman, who seems to be completely haunted by a dark event in her past. With intimate descriptions of scenery, characters, and social customs, At the Moment of Victory is a beautiful portrayal of the upper class during the late 19th century. First published in 1889, At the Moment of Victory continues to pique readers’ interest with its vivid characters and compelling narrative. This edition of At the Moment of Victory by Catherine Louisa Pirkis features a new, eye-catching cover design and is printed in an easy-to-read font. With these accommodations, At the Moment of Victory caters to a modern audience while preserving the original beauty of Catherine Louisa Pirkis’ work.

Download or read book The Artist and the Assassin written by Mark Frutkin and published by The Porcupine's Quill. This book was released on 2021-08-31 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rome, 1600. In the shadowed cellars of Cardinal Del Monte’s palazzo, a shaft of light illuminates the face of Luca Passarelli. Across the room, behind an enormous canvas, the brilliant, mercurial artist Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio paints with sure brushstrokes Luca’s likeness into a new masterpiece. Caravaggio is both revered and reviled by his patrons as well as his fellow artists. His innovative paintings and his blazing temper have made him powerful friends, but also powerful enemies—enemies who are determined to quench the flame of his talent. What Caravaggio does not know is that Luca is a professional assassin, a bitter and spiteful man who, in his dark past, has ‘breathed in death’ and has committed murder on multiple occasions. What the artist does not know is that when next they meet it will not be a canvas that brings them together, but rather revenge ... and death.

Download or read book Make Me an Instrument of Your Peace written by Kent Nerburn and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2010-09-07 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kent Nerburn's Make Me an Instrument of Your Peace, immerses us in the spirit of one of the most universally inspiring figures in history: St. Francis of Assisi. The Prayer of St. Francis boldly but gently challenges us to resist the forces of evil and negativity with the spirit of goodwill and generosity. And Nerburn shows, in his wonderfully personal and humble way, how we each can live out the prayer's prescription for living in our everyday and less-than-saintly lives. "Where there is hatred, let me sow love...Where there is injury, let me sow pardon..." Expanding upon each line of the St. Francis Prayer, Nerburn shares touching, inspiring stories from his own experience and that of others and reveals how each of us can make a difference for good in ordinary ways without being heroes or saints. Struggling to help a young son comfort his best friend when his mother dies, moved by the courage of war enemies who reconcile, being wrenched out of self-absorbed depression by responding to someone else's tragedy, taking a spirited old lady on a farewell taxi ride through her town-these are the kinds of everyday moments in which Nerburn finds we can live out the spirit of St. Francis. By incorporating the power and grace of these few lines of practical idealism into our thoughts and deeds, we can begin to ease our own suffering-and the suffering of those with whom we share our lives. And, remarkably, find a way to true peace and happiness by tapping into our basic human goodness. As we open our hearts and embrace his words, St. Francis "touches our deepest humanity and ignites the spark of our divinity." Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love, Where there is injury let me sow pardon, Where there is doubt, faith, Where there is despair, hope, Where there is darkness, light, And where there is sadness, joy... In this beautifully written book, Kent Nerburn leads us into the heart of the St. Francis Prayer and line by line demonstrates how St. Francis's words can resonate in our lives today.
