Download or read book Callie Shaw Stable Boy written by Judy Alter and published by Speaking Volumes. This book was released on with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "No girl's allowed! No girls are allowed to work in the racing stables . . . Not even with your aunt's permission!" How many times had Callie heard the man say it? Not that Aunt Edna would ever agree anyway. Aunt Edna always said that horse racing coming to Texas brought "the devil amongst us," but Callie figured she knew better. The horses were so beautiful and the races so exciting, it just couldn't be bad. Callie also knew something else—even though she was a girl, she must find a way to be a stable boy.
Book Synopsis Callie Shaw, Stableboy by : Judy Alter
Download or read book Callie Shaw, Stableboy written by Judy Alter and published by Sunbelt Media. This book was released on 1996 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book places Saint Augustine's theology in a new and illuminating context by considering what he has to say about beauty. It demonstrates how a theological understanding of beauty revealed in the created, temporal realm enabled Augustine to form a positive appreciation of this realm and the healing power within it. It therefore reintroduces aesthetics alongside philosophy and ethics in Augustine's treatment of God. Unlike previous works, it shifts the emphasis away from Augustine's early and most theoretical treatises to his mature reflection as a bishop and pastor on how God communicates with fallen man. Using his theory of language as a paradigm, it shows how divine beauty, revealed in creation and history, serves to inspire fallen man's faith, hope, and most especially his love--thereby reforming him and restoring the form or beauty he had lost.

After all, Katie had watched her brother plenty of times. This would give her some real job experience—and she'd be paid for it, too! But Katie's first baby-sitting job doesn't turn out the way she'd planned. Something is missing from the Stellans' house, and though it wasn't her fault, Katie's sure everybody's blaming her.

Because if she doesn't, she may never be hired as a baby-sitter again! "...the clues are well placed, the pace is lively, and the characters nicely realized.

Download or read book Stirring Prose written by Deborah Douglas and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stirring Prose: Cooking with Texas Authors is a delightfully revealing look at some of Texas's best writers. Initially conceived as a Who's Who of Texas authors, Deborah Douglas quickly realized that asking authors to write about their favorite recipes freed them from "the big toe-digging constraints of having to talk directly about themselves. The resulting off-center reflections are brilliant slices of their personalities and their writing styles." A traditional cookbook this is not. Each author contributed to Stirring Prose in a personal, distinctive way. Billy Porterfield reveals his fantasies about a voluptuous restaurant owner and a dream-enhanced recipe for "game hen fricassee with a French New Guinea twist." Sunny Nash gives us an enticing snapshot of her grandmother, Bigmama, and divulges the secret to beautiful skin with Bigmama's Mysterious Rose Water Splash. And John Erickson shares his Bachelor Cowboy's Delight, the meal he eats over and over when his wife and children are out of town, and which consists of steak, lettuce salad, and green peas. Robert Flynn, Liz Carpenter, Elmer Kelton, and thirty-three others also share their recipes and food stories. Some of these recipes, such as Dr. [Larry L.] King's Asian Flu Hot Liquid Life-Saver, almost beg for a "do not try this at home" warning. Others, such as Cindy Bonner's Bohemian Kolaches and Clay Reynolds's Tex-Mex Breakfast, will inspire readers to start cooking. All are enticing for their tasty prose. Each recipe is accompanied by a photograph, a publication list, and an engaging, personalized introduction by Douglas, herself a fine writer, funny and charming. Although not an exhaustive collection of Texas writers, Stirring Prose: Cooking with Texas Authors is a tantalizing peek at thirty-nine talented Texas writers and their work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maggie and a Horse Named Devildust Life for most young girls on the West Texas plains at the tum-of-the- century was routine with school, household chores, and sewing instruction. But not for Maggie. Much to the dismay of her parents, she loves to ride, to rope and to live the life of a cowgirl. When the gorgeous wild horse she names Devildust comes into her life, it's love at first sight. Maggie is determined to train Devildust, herself, and has secret plans to make him much more than just a cowpony. And she has plans for herself, too, that include a life filled with adventure and excitement and wild west shows—a life that no one else had planned for her! "Maggie is a spunky and engaging heroine whose growing pains and triumphs will be shared by all young readers."—Judyth Rigler Lone Star Library
