Book Synopsis The Poppy Lady by : Barbara E. Walsh
Download or read book The Poppy Lady written by Barbara E. Walsh and published by Astra Publishing House. This book was released on 2020-09-08 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is the inspiring story behind the Veterans Day red poppy, a symbol that honors the service and sacrifices of our veterans. When American soldiers entered World War I, Moina Belle Michael, a schoolteacher from Georgia, knew she had to act. Some of the soldiers were her students and friends. Almost single-handedly, Moina worked to establish the red poppy as the symbol to honor and remember soldiers. And she devoted the rest of her life to making sure the symbol would last forever. Thanks to her hard work, that symbol remains strong today. Author Barbara Elizabeth Walsh and artist Layne Johnson worked with experts, primary documents, and Moina's great-nieces to better understand Moina's determination to honor the war veterans. A portion of the book's proceeds will support the National Military Family Association's Operation Purple®, which benefits children of the US Military.

In A Way to Garden, Roach imparts decades of garden wisdom on seasonal gardening, ornamental plants, vegetable gardening, design, gardening for wildlife, organic practices, and much more. She also challenges gardeners to think beyond their garden borders and to consider the ways gardening can enrich the world. Brimming with beautiful photographs of Roach’s own garden, A Way to Garden is practical, inspiring, and a must-have for every passionate gardener.

Book excerpt: Keen to escape the pressures of city life, Marsali Swift and her husband William are drawn to Listowel, a glorious historic mansion in the seemingly tranquil small town of Muckleton. There is time to read, garden, decorate, play chess and befriend the locals. Yet one night Listowel is robbed, and soon after a neighbour is murdered. The violent history of the couple’s adopted Goldfields town is revealed, and plans for a new goldmine emerge. Subtle and sinister details unnerve : the novels that are studied at book club echo disappearances and colonial transgressions, a treasured copy painting painting of Monet‘s Field of Poppies recalls loves and dreams but also times of war. Atmospheric and beguiling this is a novel the seduces the reader with mysteries and beauties but also speaks of something much larger. The planet is in trouble, but is the human race up to the challenge? Are Marsali and William walking blindfold into a hostile world? ‘It celebrates the human catastrophe with grace and charm. It takes years of experience for a writer to be able to pull off this kind of sorcery.’ — Michael McGirr ‘Carmel Bird has a gift for distilling the essence of her characters and locations and bringing them together in wonderfully unexpected ways. Her distinctive voice and lightness of touch shine in this penetrating and evocative novel.’ — Michael Sala

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In volume one of Julia Turk's Navigator's Dream series, Riverlog, we met the Navigator-a psychiatrist seeking enlightenment in a dark world. Through a mysterious series of events, the Navigator fell into the world of tarot cards. Once there, our hero went head to head with seven strange birds, twelve bizarre characters, and a camel-all different aspects of the mystical deck of cards-who helped on the way to adventure and enlightenment. In volume two, the Navigator is back in the world of cards; only this time, it's time to meet royalty. The Navigator comes to know the Court Cards of the mystic deck: the Queens, Kings, Pages, and Knights. The Navigator travels from one castle to the next, but in order to get through this strange world safely, several difficult riddles must be solved that could spell life or death in the pages of fate. The Court Cards are not easy to handle. They have separate, strong personalities that make them difficult to outsmart-and difficult to put up with. But the Navigator must make it through this new adventure to move on to the final voyage into the magical deck of tarot cards. Although a work of fiction, extensive knowledge of Hermetic Cabala and tarot is woven within, to teach readers and entertain in this court intrigue of danger and death.
