Download or read book The Lonely Mermaid Other Fish Stories written by Laverne Johnson Baptiste and published by Go to Publish. This book was released on 2021-07-25 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LEGEND has it that the more a fish story is repeated or told time and time again, the fish tend to get bigger, and bigger, and bigger. A small child might wonder why this happens. In time, the young reader will learn that the storyteller, after the first telling of his or her story, becomes amused with his/her storytelling skill, and that the imagination can begin to "run away or run wild" with more and more interesting but untrue details. So the fish grows in size as the story grows in details and length. So get ready for the biggest fish tales ever! Reading is a journey. The stories in this book, The Lonely Mermaid, are journeys into nature, into the innocence and curiosity of childhood, into the human condition, and into the human experience. No matter how big the fish or the tales get, just enjoy the wonderful journeys while reading the stories. In the Land of Simple Living and simple pleasures, where the summers were hot and long and the winters were mild, where cotton was king and to own land was heavenly, where fish jumped high, and the living was made by farming the land; where days by the ponds, lakes, streams, and creeks were also a simple way to survive.

Download or read book Laguna the Lonely Mermaid written by Savannah Alatorre and published by . This book was released on 2014-06-08 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bestselling author Dan Alatorre sits down with his four year old daughter and creates a story to capture the imagination of children everywhere!A lonely young mermaid must think of a creative way to rescue stranded pirates. By helping others, she makes new friends. Written by four-year-old Davannah Alatorre, as told to her bestselling author father Dan Alatorre. Great for parents to read to preschoolers or for slightly older kids to read to their parents!Best selling author Dan Alatorre had written several comedic books about life with a baby/toddler/preschooler in the house, and he thought it would be nice to create books that he and his wife could read to their daughter, then evolve into writing books that their daughter could read to them.While working on his 8th or 9th book, Dan saw a spec cover that friend and artist Perry Elisabeth had done, and bought it immediately. "My 4 year old daughter was in the room and I knew she would like it, so I grabbed my video camera and asked her what she thought the picture looked like. She told me it looked like a mermaid who was lonely and sad because she didn't have any friends."With some prodding, my daughter came up with a whole story that I recorded and then wrote down. Like all kids her age, she makes up pretty good stories, and it occurred to me that kids her age might like to hear a story created by another kid their own age, instead of just what we adults think would be interesting for them. I thought it would be fun to write my daughter's stories down and publish them. "I knew it would be fun to have simple cartoon characters portray the characters of the story. My friend Don Castillo was happy to make them - and what a great job he did! Don's art adds so much, bringing a whole new dimension to the book! To further add to kids' enjoyment, we decided to ask them to draw along with the story if they could, so we created a Laguna Facebook Fan page where parents can go to post pictures of Laguna and her friends that their kids draw. When our daughter was younger and we read to our her, we often asked her things like "How many clouds are in that picture?" or, "How many bees are buzzing around the flower? What color are these birds? and Which animal is green? That is another way to make the book interesting on the third and fourth reading."My daughter always likes it when her books or cartoons have some black and white pictures that we can print for her to color with her crayons, so we added those to our Laguna Facebook Fan page, too. "Laguna The Lonely Mermaid" is just one of many stories my daughter has started telling me. Maybe I can catch a few more of them for you."

Download or read book The Green Leopard Plague and Other Stories written by Walter Jon Williams and published by Walter Jon Williams. This book was released on 2015-10-30 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Walter Jon Williams, the author of Hardwired and Implied Spaces, comes this bleeding-edge collection of SF stories, including the Nebula-winning "Daddy's World" and "The Green Leopard Plague." Other stories include "Lethe," "The Last Ride of German Freddie," "Pinocchio," and "Incarnation Day." So high-powered is this collection that three stories were nominated for Nebula Awards, one for a Hugo, and one for a Sidewise Award. The collection includes extensive annotations by the author and an introduction by Charles Stross. From a STARRED REVIEW in Publisher's Weekly: "In this provocative, entertaining collection of nine reprints, Williams (Implied Spaces) brings together tales of the College of Mystery as well as other explorations of the gray region where psyche and technology meet. Standouts include the Nebula-winning Daddy's World, in which a young boy finds himself trapped in a nightmare not of his making; The Last Ride of German Freddie, an alternate history in which Friedrich Nietzsche meets Wyatt Earp; Incarnation Day, wherein humanity raises its children as computer programs; and the title story, another Nebula winner, about a utopian society's birth and psychological effects. Coupled with extensive notes from the author, these stories invite readers to share and enjoy Williams's extensive knowledge of history, psychology, and culture."
