Book Synopsis A Chosen Few by : Frank Richard Stockton
Download or read book A Chosen Few written by Frank Richard Stockton and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-04 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories contained in this little volume were chosen, by virtue of a sort of literary civil-service examination, in order that they might be grouped together as a representative class of the author's best-known work in this line. Several of these stories have points of peculiar interest to the author. For instance, "Negative Gravity" was composed in Switzerland when the author was temporarily confined to the house in full view of unreachable Alps. "His Wife's Deceased Sister" was suggested by an editorial disposition to compare all the author's work with one previous production, and to discard everything which did not accord exactly with the particular story which had been selected as a standard of merit. "The Lady, or the Tiger?" was printed in the hope that the author might receive the cheerful coöperation of some of his readers in a satisfactory solution of the problem contained in the little story; but although he has had much valuable assistance in this direction he has also been the recipient of a great deal of scolding.

Download or read book A Chosen Few written by Frank Stockton and published by . This book was released on 2017-05-05 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Of the best - his wit is ever nimble." -The New York Times "The man who invented the immortal and unsolvable problem of 'The Lady or the Tiger?' and wrote the thrilling dubious account of 'The Wreck of the 'Thomas Hyde,'' deserves to have his fame perpetuated in as many forms as a sympathetic public will encourage the grateful publishers to devise. The reappearance of six of the best of his short yarns in this pleasing edition is, therefore, most appropriate. We say 'of the best,' but it is difficult to discriminate between Stockton's stories, long or short. He rarely if ever fails to hit the mark, and with the most trifling subjects he produces literature. His workmanship is of uniform excellence, his fancy always seems ready for flight." -The Book News Monthly "A very representative selection of short stories from the work of Mr. Stockton under the title 'A Chosen Few.'" -New Outlook "A delightful group of the author's characteristic stories....As an introduction to a fuller acquaintance with Stockton this pretty volume serves an excellent purpose." -the Atlantic "If it were only because of the story, 'The Remarkable Wreck of the 'Thomas Hyke'' I would recommend the buying of Mr. Stockton's book, 'A Chosen Few,' for young readers. But there are others, as is irreverently remarked, and the older young folks - those of about the age at which the 'Waverley Novels' were once read - will find a wholly delicious quality in these six earlier stories by the author of 'The Great War Syndicate' and "Ting-a-Ling Tales.' No boy who has been sent shopping by his mother will fail to appreciate the little sketch, "A Piece of Red Calico,' now first printed under Mr. Stockton's name." -The Independent "The very cream of Mr. Stockton's humor...Mr. Stockton's bid for the regard of posterity rests not a little on these tales, and we could only wish for him that all we had written were as good." -The Critic "Nine short stories selected by the author as representative of his best-known work in this line. Taken for all in all, one has Mr. Stockton at his best in this book." -Boston Beacon CONTENTS A Tale of Negative Gravity (From "The Christmas Wreck"" Asaph (From "The Watchmaker's Wife") "His Wife's Deceased Sister" (From "The Lady, or the Tiger?") The Lady, or the Tiger? The Remarkable Wreck of the "Thomas Hyke" (From "The Christmas Wreck") Old Pipes and the Dryad (From "The Bee-man of Orn") The Transferred Ghost (From "The Lady, or the Tiger?")

Book Synopsis The Giving Tree by : Shel Silverstein
Download or read book The Giving Tree written by Shel Silverstein and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-02-18 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As The Giving Tree turns fifty, this timeless classic is available for the first time ever in ebook format. This digital edition allows young readers and lifelong fans to continue the legacy and love of a classic that will now reach an even wider audience. "Once there was a tree...and she loved a little boy." So begins a story of unforgettable perception, beautifully written and illustrated by the gifted and versatile Shel Silverstein. This moving parable for all ages offers a touching interpretation of the gift of giving and a serene acceptance of another's capacity to love in return. Every day the boy would come to the tree to eat her apples, swing from her branches, or slide down her trunk...and the tree was happy. But as the boy grew older he began to want more from the tree, and the tree gave and gave and gave. This is a tender story, touched with sadness, aglow with consolation. Shel Silverstein's incomparable career as a bestselling children's book author and illustrator began with Lafcadio, the Lion Who Shot Back. He is also the creator of picture books including A Giraffe and a Half, Who Wants a Cheap Rhinoceros?, The Missing Piece, The Missing Piece Meets the Big O, and the perennial favorite The Giving Tree, and of classic poetry collections such as Where the Sidewalk Ends, A Light in the Attic, Falling Up, Every Thing On It, Don't Bump the Glump!, and Runny Babbit. And don't miss the other Shel Silverstein ebooks, Where the Sidewalk Ends and A Light in the Attic!
