Book excerpt: Three starred reviews A Publishers Weekly Best Children’s Book of 2019 Anne Ursu, author of the National Book Award nominee The Real Boy, returns with a story of the power of fantasy, the limits of love, and the struggles inherent in growing up. When you’re an identical twin, your story always starts with someone else. For Iris, that means her story starts with Lark. Iris has always been the grounded, capable, and rational one; Lark has been inventive, dreamy, and brilliant—and from their first moments in the world together, they’ve never left each other’s side. Everyone around them realized early on what the two sisters already knew: they had better outcomes when they were together. When fifth grade arrives, however, it's decided that Iris and Lark should be split into different classrooms, and something breaks in them both. Iris is no longer so confident; Lark retreats into herself as she deals with challenges at school. And at the same time, something strange is happening in the city around them, things both great and small going missing without a trace. As Iris begins to understand that anything can be lost in the blink of an eye, she decides it’s up to her to find a way to keep her sister safe.

Book excerpt: Halley's Comet tells its own history in this unique STEM book Halley's Comet, visible from Earth only once every 75 years, tells its own story in this unique informational picture book. With each return of the comet, the book highlights human life at that time, and how science has advanced toward a greater understanding of our universe. Told in minimal, poetic text paired with detailed captions for context, the book begins with sightings in ancient civilizations, where for centuries, the comet was a mystery recorded in art and writing. From Edmond Halley's successful prediction of the comet's return in 1758, through the advent of technologies like cameras and eventually a spacecraft that photographed its ice core, Halley's Comet tells an inspiring and wide-reaching story of scientific advancement and cultural history. The book closes by inviting readers to wonder what our world might look like the next time Halley's Comet is visible from earth, expected in 2061. What will the comet "see," next time it passes by on its journey?

Download or read book The Raven written by Edgar Allan Poe and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe Influenced by the English Romantic poets Samuel Taylor Coleridge, "Lord" George Gordon Byron, and Percy Shelley, Edgar Allan Poe represents one of the essential American Romantic poets of the 19th century. Romanticism here refers to a literary movement in the late 1700s and 1800s that focused on the emotional life of the individual and curiosity about oneself. This move complimented a broader geopolitical and ideological shift in the United States. Just as a young nation made its way to the West, its writers and philosophers explored the unknown territory of the human mind. Some romantic poets, such as the transcendentalist Ralph Waldo Emerson, saw the potential for positive revelations within the self. Reflecting his belief in the inherent goodness of people, Emerson's poetry highlights enchanting elements such as natural features, water, and light. Poe, on the other hand, was interested in probing the darkest depths of the human psyche. It uses gloomy gothic scenes and nightmare sequences to suggest that self-reliance and turning inward does not result in enlightenment, but rather in terror and anxiety. The human mind, Poe argues, does not need help from lurid exteriors: it is fully capable of creating horror from within. This theme of self-generated inner torment plays a prominent role in "The Raven." Poe's works defy categorization. They contain elements of detective fiction, gothic thrillers, Victorian love poetry, and even comedy. He is sometimes credited with being the creator of the modern tale, and his stories, including "The Tell-Tale Heart," "The Fall of the House of Usher" and "The Cask of Amontillado" are among the best known in the world. literary. His critical views were also influenced, especially the idea that poetry should be musical, that it should focus on beauty over truth, and that it should uplift the soul. Poe especially wished to be known as a poet, although he only wrote about fifty poems in all. His narrative poem "The Raven" is his most popular work, although others such as "Annabel Lee" and "Ulalume" are also widely read. Poe's poetry features rigid rhyming schemes and stanza patterns. Its speakers are always unnamed males; Although it is tempting to read his poems as autobiographical, they are more likely to represent an exercise in subjective exploration of emotion, as did the works of other Romantic poets of his time. Poe speakers often embark on a literal journey or a journey of the mind. Starting from a place of rational credibility, they are gradually superseded and their emotions make them unreliable. "The Raven" fits this mold. The poem became so powerfully associated with Poe that the author himself is sometimes referred to as "the raven."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Top Five Classics illustrated edition of Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven includes: • All 25 illustrations by Gustave Doré for Harper & Brothers’ 1884 edition • An informative Introduction • A detailed Biography of Edgar Allan Poe • The illustrated version and text-only version of the full poem No poem has ever received the kind of immediate and overwhelming response that Poe’s “The Raven” did when it first appeared in the New York Evening Mirror on January 29, 1845. It made Poe an overnight sensation (though his great fame never brought him much wealth) and the poem, a powerfully haunting elegy to lost love, remains one of the most beloved and recognizable verses in the English language. The illustrations that accompany this Top Five Classics edition are reproductions of the renowned French artist Gustave Doré’s steel-plate engravings created for Harper & Brothers’ 1884 release of The Raven. It would be Doré’s last commission as he died shortly after completing the 25 illustrations in January 1883. His illustrations would become famous in their own right, evoking as they do the lyrical and mystical air of Poe’s masterpiece.
