Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Johanne and Knud lived close to the town of Kjöge, where there are many gardens that extend as far as the river. There is not much else, but it is charming in summer! It was under the willow-tree in one of these gardens that Johanne and Knud spent a great deal of their time and theirs was a beautiful friendship. But everything would change when Johanne had to leave for Copenhagen with her father! Would they remain friends? Or even, as Knud hoped, could they become more than friends? Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) was a Danish author, poet and artist. Celebrated for children’s literature, his most cherished fairy tales include "The Emperor's New Clothes", "The Little Mermaid", "The Nightingale", "The Steadfast Tin Soldier", "The Snow Queen", "The Ugly Duckling" and "The Little Match Girl". His books have been translated into every living language, and today there is no child or adult that has not met Andersen's whimsical characters. His fairy tales have been adapted to stage and screen countless times, most notably by Disney with the animated films "The Little Mermaid" in 1989 and "Frozen", which is loosely based on "The Snow Queen", in 2013. Thanks to Andersen's contribution to children's literature, his birth date, April 2, is celebrated as International Children's Book Day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poor Cecco is a children’s story written by Margery Williams Bianco; a celebrated British-American author, best known for penning The Velveteen Rabbit. Bianco (1881 – 1944), started writing children’s books in the 1920s, and published Poor Cecco – a distinguished book rivalling the Velveteen Rabbit in ‘classic status’ – in 1925. It has the amusingly lengthy subtitle: The Wonderful Story of a Wonderful Wooden Dog Who Was the Jolliest Toy in the House Until He Went Out to Explore the World, which rather aptly describes the contents! The book further contains a series of dazzling colour and black-and-white illustrations – by a master of the craft; Arthur Rackham (1867-1939). One of the most celebrated painters of the British Golden Age of Illustration (which encompassed the years from 1850 until the start of the First World War), Rackham’s artistry is quite simply, unparalleled. Throughout his career, he developed a unique style, combining haunting humour with dream-like romance. Presented alongside the text, his illustrations further refine and elucidate Margery Bianco’s captivating narrative.
Download or read book A Book of Short Stories and Memoirs written by L.M. Starr and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-06-28 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author had the opportunity to go to college after back surgery and was no longer able to work in her field of avionics. She was tested for her abilities to learn, and it was recommended she go to a technical school versus a college. She decided to go to college even though the specialists recommended her not to. It took her seven years to graduate, and she graduated with an above average GPA. She took a creative writing course and found it to be therapeutic and a way to use her creative side. This book will take you through more than one journey that the author experienced in her life (her play deals with her journey in college, her anecdote where she does a 360 in her vehicle on her way to her godchild's baptism, or when she was alone in the country and a woman shot the dog and the windows in her car) as well as creative short stories and an interview with her mother's experience dealing with the hardships she had with her disabled son who had Riley-Day syndrome. The reader will also find connections within some of the stories in the book. So if you like a murder mystery, an adventure, or true life, this is the book for you.

Download or read book The Letter Kei written by Haley Salzburn and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-06-23 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I found a little boy last night, and I can only assume he's lived on the street alone his entire life. I've decided to take him in. He's definitely not like any kid I've ever seen before. For one thing, he might be an angel. He has started to grow wings now, and his eyes are a strangely glowing red. He's so pale though, like he's never even seen the sun. He seems lost and I know he has a lot to learn, but I think he's got a good heart. I hope I can help him see how special he really is. *** Why am I like this? I feel like I'm someone's idea of a cruel joke. A demon with angel wings? How funny it must all be to them-but it's not to me. I have to deal with this, trying to hide who I really am and not let the monster inside me get out. When it starts to take over, my eyes glow scarlet and I feel myself go out of control. I don't understand why I'm here, or what I am, but trying to fit in and be human is the only thing I can do. I hope no one notices me.

Book excerpt: “Paints a vibrant portrait of post-war Vietnam, illuminating both the dangers and the great beauty of a country in the process of healing itself.” —Booklist You can go home again. When twenty-three-year-old Maia Trieu, a curator’s assistant at the Museum of Folklore & Rocks in Little Saigon, Orange County, is offered a research grant to Vietnam for the summer of 1991, she cannot refuse. The grant’s sponsor has one stipulation: Maia is to contact her great-aunt to pass on plans to overthrow the current government. The expatriates did not anticipate that Maia would become involved with excursions in search of her mother or attract an entourage: an American traveler, a government agent, an Amerasian singer, and a cat. Maia carries out what she believes is her role as a filial daughter to her late father, a former ARVN soldier, by returning to their homeland to continue the fight for an independent Vietnam. Along the way, however, she meets a cast of characters—historical and fictional, living and dead—who propel her on a journey of self-discovery, through which she begins to understand what it means to love. “Delivers a war-ravaged Vietnam rich in history, folklore, the tragedy of families torn asunder, and the beauty of Buddhist wisdom that connects the living and dead . . . an impressive debut.” —Charles Johnson, National Book Award-winning author of Middle Passage “Lam deftly explores the slippery interplay between heritage and identity, history and duty, ultimately proving that each of us is so much more than the places we come from. An important debut.” —Quan Barry, author of We Ride Upon Sticks
