Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroes and Heroines of Fiction Roughly speaking, the year 1500 forms the line of cleavage between this volume and its predecessor bearing the subtitle, Modem Prose and Poetry.

Download or read book The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood Illustrated written by Howard Pyle and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-29 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood of Great Renown in Nottinghamshire is an 1883 novel by the American illustrator and writer Howard Pyle. Consisting of a series of episodes in the story of the English outlaw Robin Hood and his band of Merry Men, the novel compiles traditional material into a coherent narrative in a colorful, invented "old English" idiom that preserves some flavor of the ballads, and adapts it for children. The novel is notable for taking the subject of Robin Hood, which had been increasingly popular through the 19th century, in a new direction that influenced later writers, artists, and filmmakers through the next century

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "No one has ever matched Georgette Heyer for charm and wit."—LISA KLEYPAS, New York Times bestselling author "You're in for a treat."—NORA ROBERTS, New York Times bestselling author A fresh celebration of a legendary author who has charmed tens of millions of readers with her rapier wit, brilliant characterizations, and unique take on Regency romance. Now, get three full-length novels featuring some of Heyer's most splendid heroes, plus a delightful bonus novella from the Queen of Regency Romance's little known short story collection. About the books in this bundle: Venetia: Venetia Lanyon lives an independent but secluded life running her family's estate, until she meets her notorious neighbor: Jasper, Lord Damerel. Exiled at his country estate for his rakish ways, Damerel never expects to find a hidden gem like Venetia so far from London. What begins for him as a harmless flirtation becomes much more, and the two are on the verge of a damaging scandal. For meeting Damerel has awakened in Venetia desires she never dreamt she possessed, and she'll be drawn out of her reclusive existence by the very type of man a well-bred lady should avoid. These Old Shades: Justin Alistair, His Grace the Duke of Avon, is a dangerous man to cross. Nicknamed "Satanas" for his wild and unscrupulous ways, he has waited 20 years to get revenge on his arch-enemy. The means to do so falls serendipitously into his hands in the person of a fiery red-head whose nobility is scarcely disguised by a harsh and abusive upbringing. First the Duke's servant, and later his ward, Leonie Bonnard adores, challenges, and provokes the Duke, never guessing that she's going to be at the center of a public confrontation that will shock the world. Set in the years before Prinny became Regent, Heyer delivers an unusual hero you will never forget. Devil's Cub: The acclaimed sequel to These Old Shades delivers non-stop action and the delight of seeing just what happened to Leonie Bonnard and the Duke of Avon. Mary Challoner tried to trick fiery Dominic Alistair, Marquis of Vidal, to prevent him from running off with her sister. Now he's discovered her subterfuge, and he's not one to take this kind of thing lightly. A kidnapping ensues, but Mary has a few more shocking stratagems up her sleeve, and it seems that Dominic, the Devil's Cub, may have finally met his match. Pistols for Two (novella): Two best friends at odds over plain little Marianne Treen, who is no longer plain and has grown into a stunning young lady. A spilled drink and a squashed toe, and Jack and Tom find themselves facing each other with pistols at dawn. Brimming with characteristic wit and colorful characters, Heyer brings to life all the romance, intrigue, gallantry, villainy and grace of the Regency period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An offbeat penguin shows his peers the power of individuality in this humorous tale from the author of Pookins Gets Her Way. Tacky is an odd bird. He likes to do splashy cannonballs and greet his companions with a loud "What's happening?" In fact, he's something of an eccentric, which wouldn't be a problem if all the other penguins weren't such…conformists. When intimidating visitors invade their peaceful, nice, icy land, it'll take a lot more than a bunch of perfect penguins to save the day. Thank goodness Tacky's such an odd bird! “This book is must reading for any kid—or grown-up—who refuses to follow the pack.”—Publishers Weekly

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroes and Heroines of Fiction Roughly speaking, the year 1500 forms the line of cleavage between this volume and its predecessor bearing the subtitle, Modern Prose and Poetry. But no merely arbitrary date can furnish a philosophical and consistent division between a volume so subtitled and a companion volume like the present, dealing not only with the characters of classic and oriental myth (these date from the unknown past), but also with heroes of the folk-lore, legend and tradition of all times and of that non-literary literature known as the ballad and the chapbook. For instance, Captain Kidd, as a ballad hero, properly belongs to this volume (as the compiler has planned it) even though the eccentric pirate flourished in the eighteenth century. So does Mother Shipton, in her quality as a chapbook heroine, though her fame was established in the seventeenth century. So do Uncle Sam and Brother Jonathan, because they are of purely popular origin. A distinction worth noting occurs in the case of John Bull. Name and character were originally invented by John Arbuthnot in a purely literary pasquinade. In his original form, therefore, Master Bull belongs to Volume I. But that original and purely literary form has been so transmogrified in the popular imagination, has gathered such an accretion of details from a hundred unidentifiable sources, that the John Bull of to-day, the protagonist of cartoon and caricature is a totally different being from the John Bull of Arbuthnot's creation. Therefore this secondary character also obtains a niche in the present volume. Other "heroes and heroines" have won for themselves a dual immortality of a similar sort: Cleopatra and Julius Cæsar, for example, are historic characters, belonging to the classic period of antiquity. But they have obtruded themselves into modern "fiction." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Winner of the 2018 Pura Belpre Award! “A book for anyone mending from childhood wounds.”—Sandra Cisneros, author of The House on Mango Street In this unforgettable multicultural coming-of-age narrative—based on the author’s childhood in the 1960s—a young Cuban-Jewish immigrant girl is adjusting to her new life in New York City when her American dream is suddenly derailed. Ruthie’s plight will intrigue readers, and her powerful story of strength and resilience, full of color, light, and poignancy, will stay with them for a long time. Ruthie Mizrahi and her family recently emigrated from Castro’s Cuba to New York City. Just when she’s finally beginning to gain confidence in her mastery of English—and enjoying her reign as her neighborhood’s hopscotch queen—a horrific car accident leaves her in a body cast and confined her to her bed for a long recovery. As Ruthie’s world shrinks because of her inability to move, her powers of observation and her heart grow larger and she comes to understand how fragile life is, how vulnerable we all are as human beings, and how friends, neighbors, and the power of the arts can sweeten even the worst of times.
