Essie's Children of the Island: Island Flavor Teen/ Youth Novel
ISBN: 9781456592790 / Angielski / Miękka / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Non-Silence of the LAMB was edited and adjusted to adapt to a youth audience. Excerpt; It was rare for an item not to fit. However, when that did happen, there was pandemonium as trade-offs occurred among the family. It appeared like the scene in the story of Cinderella where the stepsisters forced their too-big feet into the tiny glass slipper brought by the prince. After the opening of the barrel, or what was humorously perceived as the opening ceremony, there was the trade show. Everyone tried on their clothes and shoes to see if they fit and to see what they could profitably trade for...

Newbery Award-winning author Marguerite Henry's beloved novel about a boy who would do anything to paint is now available in a refreshed paperback edition.

Because Benjamin's family didn't approve of his art, he had to make his own painting supplies. The local Native Americans taught him how to mix paints from earth,...

A Rambling Collection of Murder Myth Musings and Capers
ISBN: 9781491816479 / Angielski / Miękka / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An eclectic depiction of events some actual and some fantasied. Although a number of the articles are of a serious nature, many reek of absurdity and the intention is then satirical farce to bring about amusement. The poetry included is not quite doggerel but certainly not the sublime variety of serious poets. Just a means to better tell a sentiment or story The overall format is a magazine style so one can drift from one entry to another with almost no continuity involved. A good read to overcome insomnia or boring television fare.
