Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on my imagination and interpretation of the concept of "that some things may not always be what we expect for them to be." In this funny Halloween story, Jonathan is disturbed by stories told to him by his mother about his aunt Karen being a witch and he’s frightened to no end; he's convinced the stories are real. Real witches ride around on broomsticks. They wear black cloaks and hats. They are wicked, cunning, hateful women who disguise themselves as being friendly, ordinary ladies. Believing that his aunt might be a witch, his thoughts turn to fear the split second his mother drops him off at his aunt’s house for a night of Trick-Or-Treating. His unexpected hideaway in the kitchen will be a safe havenuntil he suspects she will cook him in a big black pot. And there resting in the corner is the witch's broom. The book includes a secret recipe, a coloring book, and matching full-color illustrations. The book concludes positively, with the moral of the story being not to lose the gift of imagination. The story, though intended for a child’s impressionable and curious mind, is of sentimental interest to adults and their imagination as well. Children and adults will enjoy this story. The book is ideal for younger children, as the secret recipe is not complicated, however, it focuses on a gluten-free healthier choice of lifestyle while spreading happiness.

Download or read book Spells for Change written by Frankie Castanea and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forget warts and cauldrons—a new generation of witches is on the rise. From justice spells to protective charms, Frankie Castanea brings their fresh style to an ancient practice, showing that contemporary witchcraft is a powerful force for good and a tool for manifesting positive change. Modern-day witches are a blend of the old and the new. They travel to the grocery store, work nine-to-five jobs, and teach in our classrooms. They also carry black tourmaline and quartz, and wave bay and rosemary bundles over their doorways. Within an ancient and sacred practice, a new type of Craft has taken hold: one that combines the power of action with energy and intent, prioritizes self-realization, and matches its activism with manifestation. With chapters on meditation, grounding, cleansing, banishing, binding, and more, Spells for Change will help the modern witch create change within the hearth, the heart, and the world—one spell at a time.

Students are taught spells that are petty and ill-wishing, and when Mary discovers evidence of a terrible and cruel experiment in transformation, she decides to leave. But the moment her broomstick takes off, she realises that Tib the cat has been captured ...

Anne Rice offers more than just a story; she creates myth.”—The Washington Post Book World Rowan Mayfair, a beautiful woman, a brilliant practitioner of neurosurgery—aware that she has special powers but unaware that she comes from an ancient line of witches—finds the drowned body of a man off the coast of California and brings him to life. He is Michael Curry, who was born in New Orleans and orphaned in childhood by fire on Christmas Eve, who pulled himself up from poverty, and who now, in his brief interval of death, has acquired a sensory power that mystifies and frightens him. As these two, fiercely drawn to each other, fall in love and—in passionate alliance—set out to solve the mystery of her past and his unwelcome gift, an intricate tale of evil unfolds. Moving through time from today’s New Orleans and San Francisco to long-ago Amsterdam and a château in the Louis XIV’s France, and from the coffee plantations of Port au Prince, where the great Mayfair fortune is made and the legacy of their dark power is almost destroyed, to Civil War New Orleans, The Witching Hour is a luminous, deeply enchanting novel. The magic of the Mayfairs continues: THE WITCHING HOUR • LASHER • TALTOS
Download or read book When I Was a Witch Other Stories written by Charlotte Perkins Gilman and published by Flame Tree 451. This book was released on 2023-08-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful collection of early feminist stories from the activist and writer Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Gilman created a world that could be viewed from the feminist gaze. She focused on how women were not just stay-at-home mothers they were expected to be but also people who had dreams, who were able to travel and work just as men did, and whose goals included a society where women were just as important as men. In the early 1900s this was striking and revolutionary. The stories in this collection are: 'A Coincidence'; 'According To Solomon', 'An Offender', 'A Middle-Sized Artist', 'Martha's Mother', 'Her Housekeeper', 'When I Was A Witch', 'Making a Living', 'A Coincidence, The Cottagette', 'The Boys and the Butter', 'My Astonishing Dodo', and 'A Word In Season'.
