Download or read book The Seven Tales of Trinket written by Shelley Moore Thomas and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux (BYR). This book was released on 2012-09-04 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guided by a tattered map, accompanied by Thomas the Pig Boy, and inspired by the storyteller's blood that thrums through her veins, eleven-year-old Trinket searches for the seven stories she needs to become a bard like her father, who disappeared years before. She befriends a fortune-telling gypsy girl; returns a child stolen by the selkies to his true mother; confronts a banshee and receives a message from a ghost; helps a village girl outwit—and out-dance—the Faerie Queen; travels beyond the grave to battle a dastardly undead Highwayman; and meets a hound so loyal he fights a wolf to the death to protect the baby prince left in his charge. All fine material for six tales, but it is the seventh tale, in which Trinket learns her father's true fate, that changes her life forever. The Seven Tales of Trinket is a Kirkus Reviews Best Children's Book of 2012

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Seven Tales by Seven Authors A lady, herself an authoress, was some years ago introduced as a contributor to Snamn's magazine, at that time conducted by the Editor of the present volume. Owing to cir cumstances, into which it is unnecessary to enter, the precarious income of a magazine writer was the chief resource on which this lady had to rely, for the support of herself and her young family, although there was good reason to hope, that if the effects of an imme diate pressure could be averted, a brighter prospect lay before her.

Download or read book THE COMPLETE SHORT STORIES OF NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE Illustrated written by Nathaniel Hawthorne and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2017-08-07 with total page 615 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This carefully edited collection of "THE COMPLETE SHORT STORIES OF NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE (Illustrated)” has been designed and formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. Excerpts: "I am afraid this ghost story will bear a very faded aspect when transferred to paper. Whatever effect it had on you, or whatever charm it retains in your memory, is, perhaps, to be attributed to the favorable circumstances under which it was originally told.” (The Ghost of Doctor Harris) American novelist and short story writer Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804-1864) published his first work, a novel titled Fanshawe, in 1828; he later tried to suppress it, feeling it was not equal to the standard of his later work. He published several short stories in various periodicals, which he collected in 1837 as Twice-Told Tales. Much of Hawthorne's writing centres on New England, many works featuring moral allegories with a Puritan inspiration. His fiction works are considered to be part of the Romantic movement and, more specifically, Dark romanticism. His themes often centre on the inherent evil and sin of humanity, and his works often have moral messages and deep psychological complexity.
