Book Synopsis Beyond the Golden Door by : Ali Master
Download or read book Beyond the Golden Door written by Ali Master and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this powerful and inspiring memoir, a Pakistani immigrant shares his story of finding new freedoms and a new faith in America. It’s easy to talk about freedom. But unless someone has lived in a world that suffocates freedom, it’s difficult to appreciate the liberty found in America. This is the true story of a Pakistani Muslim who immigrates to the United States for college and discovers five transformational freedoms along the way: the freedom to fail and start over, to love, to choose one’s faith, to be an entrepreneur, and to self-govern. Contrasting these precious freedoms with the life he lived in Pakistan, Ali’s story reveals that God is the true source of liberty as He works in people’s lives to bring about redemption. A call to value and preserve American freedoms, Beyond the Golden Door is also an invitation for readers to consider ultimate freedom in Jesus Christ.

Book excerpt: "Three magic Doors you here behold. Time to choose: Wood? Silver? Gold?" Rye stands before three Doors, about to step out into the unknown. He's lived his whole life safe inside the enormous Wall that rings the city of Weld and protects against the terrible dangers outside. Now, Weld is under attack from skimmers, flying beasts that kill in the night. If the enemy sending the skimmers isn't found, the citizens of Weld are doomed. But that's not why Rye has volunteered on a mission to leave Weld and stop the skimmers. His real goal is to find his two older brothers, who volunteered before him and never returned. Now Rye must open one of the Doors and begin a perilous quest that could save his brothers...or cost his life.
Download or read book The Third Door written by Emily Rodda and published by Scholastic Inc.. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A boy faces amnesia as he seeks to end the monstrous threat to his city in this finale to a fantasy trilogy by a New York Times–bestselling author. Three magic Doors are the only way in and out of the walled city of Weld. The golden Door is grand and majestic—a Door for heroes. The silver Door hints at mystery and knowledge—a door for schemers. But the plain wooden Door has always held the most appeal for Rye and his friend Sonia. And now, at last, they have the chance to open it. The city of Weld is under attack by skimmers, flying beasts that terrorize the night. If Rye and Sonia can’t discover the enemy sending the skimmers in time, Weld has no hope. Twice before, Rye and Sonia left Weld on a quest to save it. Twice before, they failed. Now there’s just one Door left—one last chance to save the people of Weld. Rye and Sonia know everything depends on them. But nothing can prepare them for the horror that waits behind the wooden Door. Praise for The Third Door “Readers who have come to love the plucky Rye and determined Sonia will be eager for this story. . . . The plot is tied up in an unexpected but very satisfying way. Fans of Rodda’s Deltora Quest series will be thrilled by the tie-ins here. New fans can enjoy this installment without any prior knowledge of the land of Deltora; though they’ll have a richer experience if they’ve read the first two volumes.” —Booklist

Download or read book The Silver Door written by Emily Rodda and published by Penguin Canada. This book was released on 2013-04-16 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After having rescued his eldest brother Dirk during a perilous voyage beyond the Golden Door, humble-but-heroic Rye returns to Weld with Dirk and his friends Sonia and Faene. Although the tyrant Olt has been overthrown, he was not the source of the marauding, dragon-like skimmers—and thus the threat to Weld remains. Rye has a strong feeling that his middle brother Sholto has chosen the Silver Door, and that this is where the skimmers really come from. As his visions of Dirk turned out to be true, he believes his visions of Sholto and the skimmers’ origins are true also. The Silver Door will lead Rye, Sonia and Dirk to bare, desolate places—the Saltings, the Scour—and strange, often desperate people locked in a struggle for survival. It will provide answers to some mysteries, while also giving them new ones to think about. And it will lead them into terrible danger, as the wider ramifications of Olt’s downfall become clear and an even more dangerous enemy rises to challenge them.

Book excerpt: An astonishing story that puts a human face on the ongoing debate about immigration reform in the United States, now updated with a new Epilogue and Afterword, photos of Enrique and his family, an author interview, and more—the definitive edition of a classic of contemporary America Based on the Los Angeles Times newspaper series that won two Pulitzer Prizes, one for feature writing and another for feature photography, this page-turner about the power of family is a popular text in classrooms and a touchstone for communities across the country to engage in meaningful discussions about this essential American subject. Enrique’s Journey recounts the unforgettable quest of a Honduran boy looking for his mother, eleven years after she is forced to leave her starving family to find work in the United States. Braving unimaginable peril, often clinging to the sides and tops of freight trains, Enrique travels through hostile worlds full of thugs, bandits, and corrupt cops. But he pushes forward, relying on his wit, courage, hope, and the kindness of strangers. As Isabel Allende writes: “This is a twenty-first-century Odyssey. If you are going to read only one nonfiction book this year, it has to be this one.” Praise for Enrique’s Journey “Magnificent . . . Enrique’s Journey is about love. It’s about family. It’s about home.”—The Washington Post Book World “[A] searing report from the immigration frontlines . . . as harrowing as it is heartbreaking.”—People (four stars) “Stunning . . . As an adventure narrative alone, Enrique’s Journey is a worthy read. . . . Nazario’s impressive piece of reporting [turns] the current immigration controversy from a political story into a personal one.”—Entertainment Weekly “Gripping and harrowing . . . a story begging to be told.”—The Christian Science Monitor “[A] prodigious feat of reporting . . . [Sonia Nazario is] amazingly thorough and intrepid.”—Newsday
Book Synopsis Guarding the Golden Door by : Roger Daniels
Download or read book Guarding the Golden Door written by Roger Daniels and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2005-01-12 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As renowned historian Roger Daniels shows in this brilliant new work, America's inconsistent, often illogical, and always cumbersome immigration policy has profoundly affected our recent past. The federal government's efforts to pick and choose among the multitude of immigrants seeking to enter the United States began with the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882. Conceived in ignorance and falsely presented to the public, it had undreamt of consequences, and this pattern has been rarely deviated from since. Immigration policy in Daniels' skilled hands shows Americans at their best and worst, from the nativist violence that forced Theodore Roosevelt's 1907 "gentlemen's agreement" with Japan to the generous refugee policies adopted after World War Two and throughout the Cold War. And in a conclusion drawn from today's headlines, Daniels makes clear how far ignorance, partisan politics, and unintended consequences have overtaken immigration policy during the current administration's War on Terror. Irreverent, deeply informed, and authoritative, Guarding the Golden Door presents an unforgettable interpretation of modern American history.
