Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why 'Nona, a story in waiting?' After seeking the Lord as to why my story wasn't being accepted. Deep in the recesses of my heart the Lord said, "It's not my time." ''Not Your time? Why have I been working so hard.? Your timing?", I asked, almost irritated. The Lord answered, ''There is still much for you to walk through then you'll write. There are more trials to overcome, but I will bring you through; some good, some difficult." "What more trials? More suffering? 0 Lord, haven't I gone through enough? And my Dear husband? The good I'll take, but more suffering?" No need to argue with the Lord, He knows what He has purposed. In submitting to the Lord on His timing and will I felt His peace and knew His timing of 'my story in waiting ' would be for His glory and my victory.

Book excerpt: Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor tells her own story for young readers for the very first time! As the first Latina Supreme Court Justice, Sonia Sotomayor has inspired young people around the world to reach for their dreams. But what inspired her? For young Sonia, the answer was books!

Accompanied by Lulu Delacre's vibrant art, this story of the Justice's life shows readers that the world is full of promise and possibility--all they need to do is turn the page.

An owl, a puppy, a bear, a rabbit, and a pig wait for marvelous things to happen in this irresistible and resonant picture book by the New York Times–bestselling and Caldecott Medalist Kevin Henkes.

The puppy is waiting for the snow. And the rabbit is just looking out the window because he likes to wait! What will happen? Will patience win in the end? Or someday will the friends stop waiting and do something unexpected? Waiting is a big part of childhood—waiting in line, waiting to grow up, waiting for something special to happen—but in this book, a child sets the stage and pulls the strings.

Book Synopsis How to Write a Children's Picture Book Volume I: Structure by : Eve Heidi Bine-Stock
Download or read book How to Write a Children's Picture Book Volume I: Structure written by Eve Heidi Bine-Stock and published by Eve Heidi Bine-Stock. This book was released on 2017-02-13 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recommended by writing instructors and award-winning authors. This volume emphasizes an aspect of children's picture books that has not yet been thoroughly investigated: structure. Both concept books and picture storybooks employ very distinctive structures that, once mastered, can be applied to any picture book you wish to write. When so many of the best picture books employ the same structures, it is important to analyze these structures, understand why they work, and learn how to incorporate them into your own writing. This volume helps you do all that. You will see that no matter how carefully you labor over the tone, word choice, plot, character, setting, theme and style of your picture book, you must have a thorough grasp of its structure if you wish your book to succeed. Indeed, you will find that an expert command of structure is the key to writing a successful children's picture book.
Book Synopsis The Fated Chronicles Complete Series Fantasy Adventure Bundle by : Humphrey Quinn
Download or read book The Fated Chronicles Complete Series Fantasy Adventure Bundle written by Humphrey Quinn and published by Rachel Humphrey - D'aigle. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 1700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fated Chronicles: A Contemporary Portal Fantasy Adventure... The Fated Chronicles was my first series. And even though it's full of magical adventure, it's also about feeling lost and finding your real home and family in this world. And that even with all the magic and mayhem and wonderous discoveries, it is truth that is the most powerful weapon. We recommend it for readers aged 10 and up. We have loads of fans who are parents who read with their kids. Young adults and teens love it. Adults who relive their fondest childhood memories of reading. Grandparents and people of all ages adore this family saga. And - Larpers! I mean, how awesome is it to have fans so crazy about your story, they larp your series? Does it get any better? Maybe, a movie… someday. Anyway, we're glad you're here to discover this series. It's been likened to more contemporary reads, like The Discworld Series, Harry Potter, Garth Nix, and one of my all-time favorites, Ray Bradbury! As well as classic fan favorites like, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Neverending Story, Alice in Wonderland, The Wizard of Oz... And I have to tell you, when a reviewer said that about my series, that was a crowning moment as I am a huge Bradbury fan - I even got a tattoo to prove it! I hope readers of all ages check out his works as they still feel timeless to me, even years after his passing. The Fated Chronicles loosely tells the story of my youth. I'm someone who didn't have the "traditional" upbringing of a stable, happy home. I spent most of my childhood protecting my siblings and friends and struggling just to survive each day. Unfortunately, I know far too many others who also lived a fight for survival kind of life and this story is for everyone who has ever had this struggle but never stopped fighting! And over time with much toil and trouble, were able to rise above the circumstance they were handed and find their true home and family in this world. This story is dedicated to every single one of you. I see you. I see the struggle you've survived. And even if you're still struggling, like me, to fully overcome a past thrust upon you -- you are still here. Still breathing. Still fighting. So, good on you! And please never give up. Because I guarantee you, whether you know it or not, there are people in this world grateful you exist. I really hope you enjoy reading this series as much as I did, writing it. And even though I do not like this part, we live in a conflicted world. So, I will warn you right now that this is an 11 book series that sees our characters age... they are just turning 13 when it starts and are 17 when it's ending -- kind of similar to how the Harry Potter characters age. This means some romance-- age-appropriate romances. However, I am a very love is love person, so, yes, there are gay couplings. It's a beautiful storyline one reader literally bawled her way through. And I admit, I bawled my way through writing it. There’s one scene later in the series that was so emotional to write, and meant so much to me, I had to take a break for a few days before I could keep writing. And that scene is dedicated not just to readers struggling with identity, but struggling with finding acceptance of any kind. Because, really, it’s all above finding our true loves and soulmates to travel through this life with. I think these reviews help sum up the series well: "This sweeping complex series of 11 books is riveting, rollicking and ultimately very satisfying. Following the lives of 3 young children in particular whose identities and relationships (like so many others in this saga) are not what they initially appear to be, these page-turners are packed with Magic, Pathos, Teenage Angst, Humor, Anticipation, Conspiracy, War and Peace, Bucolic Love, Time Travel... everything but the kitchen sink! I picked up Book 1 on a Friday night and binge read all 11 by Tuesday morning! If you ever thought you were somehow “Special,” or ever wanted to “Save the World,” these books are for YOU. Totally engaging and completely believable, the emotional roller coaster keeps the reader invested in each intricate convoluted detail while orchestrating its ultimate message of Love, with a few lessons in Morality along the way. So many comparisons to Past, Present and Future situations are readily apparent. So snuggle up on a rainy day and embark on a new adventure... I can promise you a surprise around every corner and some serious Fun!" - Amazon reviewer "Ascend, book 11 of the Fated Saga, was an absolute joy and surprise to read. While I believe most of us who have been along for the read since the beginning expected some sort of happy ending, I don't think anyone could have anticipated this. Ascend wraps up each and every character's story arc and leaves no stone unturned. *** The fact that the ending took me so completely by surprise is one of the things I loved most about this book. Each character felt like a real person, despite the magical world they lived in. The series, as a whole, dealt with topics like love, hate, discrimination, jealousy and finding yourself and was able to stay true to the story. Nothing felt contrived. The bottom line is just WOW. I was thrown by the twists I never saw coming as well as the resolutions I'd hoped for but had no idea how the author could bring about. I do hope we get to read about more of either the characters or the beautiful world created for them."
