Download or read book The Wizard of Wishes written by Woody Rowe and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2001-06-05 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE WIZARD OF WISHES plays the “three magical wishes” theme, but with a few strange twists. Readers (and listeners) may have fun following the rainbow-coded clues. Could the story have happened? No, you say? Don’t be too sure. THE GOLDEN DEER illustrates the quality of metta, or loving kindness. This rhymed version is adapted from Ten Jataka Stories, I.B. Horner (Bangkok, 1974). A prose retelling, “Banyan,” appears in Twenty Jataka Tales, Noor Inayat Khan (Rochester, Vermont, 1975); another, “The Banyan Deer,” in The Hungry Tigress, Rafe Martin (Berkeley, California, 1990). A LITTLE MAGIC can be read as an old-fashioned fairy tale that takes place in an imaginary land. But it can also be seen as a subtly inspirational ghost story. Or even a universal, but Eastern-leaning, spiritual teaching.

Download or read book Breaking the Magic Spell written by Jack Zipes and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2002-07-05 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised, expanded, and updated edition of the 1979 landmark Breaking the Magic Spell examines the enduring power of fairy tales and the ways they invade our subjective world. In seven provocative essays, Zipes discusses the importance of investigating oral folk tales in their socio-political context and traces their evolution into literary fairy tales, a metamorphosis that often diminished the ideology of the original narrative. Zipes also looks at how folk tales influence our popular beliefs and the ways they have been exploited by a corporate media network intent on regulating the mystical elements of the stories. He examines a range of authors, including the Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Anderson, Ernst Bloch, Tolkien, Bettelheim, and J.K. Rowling to demonstrate the continuing symbiotic relationship between folklore and literature.

Life is hard on the wall, little more than a clinging on for dear life. And then one day Tighe falls off the wall. And falls, and falls, and falls ... Lavishly praised everywhere from Asimov's magazine to Interzone, ON is proof positive that Adam Roberts is a new author whose potential for greatness is rapidly being realised.

Download or read book Wilson the Wizard written by Mark J and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book Wilson the Wizard, as the title suggests, is about a wizard named Wilson and his familiar demon helper, a demon dog named Jacob. It contains heaps of action and humor and very much takes the mickey out of (makes fun of) sacred cows. Nothing is sacred. The book has an annoying character who pops up, often right in the middle of action, called the Elf Editor, who defines words and sometimes refuses to if they are rude. It also has a very peculiar immortal spirit in a light bulb called Albert who is partial to 1970s hard rock music. Wilson and Jacob are very tough and are both augmented physically in addition to having magical powers, so they are not to be taken lightly by any enemies, which they have many of.

Download or read book Spell binding Spells written by Anindya Dutta and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2017-10-31 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spell-binding Spells is a book for everyone who loves cricket. It is about stunning spells—those few overs that occur rarely in cricket, when bowlers weave magic and batsmen are mesmerized. What did the stunning bowling spells of Anil Kumble, Narendra Hirwani, Ravichandran Ashwin, Padmakar Shivalkar, and Yuzvendra Chahal achieve that Kapil Dev’s career best spell could not? Curtly Ambrose and Sarfraz Nawaz, 14-years apart, bowled identical deadly spells against the same opposition taking 7 wickets for 1 run. Who were the hapless victims? Why did Gary Gilmour of Australia with an ODI bowling average of 10.31 and Clarrie Grimmett of Australia after taking 13 wickets in a Test in two magnificent spells, never play for their respective countries again? Spell-binding Spells looks at 50 of the most magnificent bowling spells in the history of cricket and answers some of these questions. VVS Laxman says: “This book is a tribute to bowlers, a breed that has never profited from the benefit of the doubt in a sport whose rules have historically always favoured batsmen. This nice little treatise is a reminder that we must ensure that the history of this game continues to get passed on from one generation to the next.”
