Book Synopsis The Tortoise and the Hare by : Elizabeth Jenkins
Download or read book The Tortoise and the Hare written by Elizabeth Jenkins and published by Virago. This book was released on 2012-04-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In affairs of the heart the race is not necessarily won by the swift or the fair. Imogen, the beautiful and much younger wife of distinguished barrister Evelyn Gresham, is facing the greatest challenge of her married life. Their neighbour Blanche Silcox, competent, middle-aged and ungainly - the very opposite of Imogen - seems to be vying for Evelyn's attention. And to Imogen's increasing disbelief, she may be succeeding. 'A subtle and beautiful book ... Very few authors combine her acute psychological insight with her grace and style. There is plenty of life in the modern novel, plenty of authors who will shock and amaze you - but who will put on the page a beautiful sentence, a sentence you will want to read twice?' Hilary Mantel, Sunday Times

Book Synopsis Ajapa the Tortoise by : Margaret Baumann
Download or read book Ajapa the Tortoise written by Margaret Baumann and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2012-06-11 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before people could turn to books for instruction and amusement, they relied upon storytellers for answers to their questions about life. Africa boasts a particularly rich oral tradition, in which the griot — village historian — preserved and passed along cultural beliefs and experiences from one generation to the next. This collection of 30 timeless fables comes from the storytellers of Nigeria, whose memorable narratives tell of promises kept and broken, virtue rewarded, and treachery punished. Ajapa the Tortoise — a trickster, or animal with human qualities — makes frequent appearances among the colorful cast of talking animals. In "Tortoise Goes Wooing," he learns a valuable lesson in friendship and sharing. Ajapa's further adventures describe how, among other things, he became a chief, acquired all of the world's wisdom, saved the king, tricked the lion, and came to be bald. Recounted in simple but evocative language, these ancient tales continue to enchant readers and listeners of all ages.

Thomas is told that in order to heal the king, he needs to have some gigantic nuts crushed. So it's up to him and his friends Victor the Vulture and Wilma the Warthog to save his majesty. However, the nuts are so big, and none of the animals are strong enough to crush them. They have to somehow convince grumpy old Edward the Elephant to help them on their important mission. When Edward refuses to help, it's Thomas's turn to spring into action and show how clever he really is. With time working against them, Thomas hatches a brilliant plan to get Edward to unknowingly help save the king. As a reward for his service, he is given a very special gift that will protect him and all tortoises to come. How the Tortoise Got His Shell is a delightful new African folk-tale by Brigitta E. Schwulst that reads like a perfect bedtime story for young children. Illustrated in a unique fashion that elicits a distinct African style, the images serve as a great companion to Thomas's entertaining journey. This lighthearted and amusing bedtime story teaches young readers the importance of using their brains. While some children may be bigger than others, everyone can be clever in their own way. Thomas's adventure shows children how to come up with solutions in the face of adversity, and that even when others don't believe in you, it's important to believe in yourself. Using exotic animals and a playful tone, How the Tortoise Got His Shell engages children into Thomas's adventure from the very beginning. With a wittiness that has universal appeal, it will be a story that children will love and parents will enjoy reading. Furthermore, the story educates children and parents on the importance of supporting endangered species by donating part of the proceeds from the book to organizations specific to the cause. In the end, Thomas's tale is a fantastic story about using your brain and believing in yourself that is great for all young children. Filled with colorful characters and a positive message, Thomas's exciting adventure is truly a treat for the whole family.
