Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Truth About Easter Rabbits, which we published in 2005, was so attractive and so popular that we follow it up with this survey of snow men, snow women, snow children and snow animals. Like the Easter Rabbit book it uses a great variety of illustrative sources to provide a comprehensive view of how snow people are created, how they vary in personality and appearance, their recreational preferences, their family lives, and what happens to them after they melt. Most of us love snow people already, but after looking at this book one will enjoy them in a more profound way. Sources drawn upon for this project include: old postcards, Victorian scraps, children's readers, antique picture books, and magazine covers and illustrations.
Download or read book Winter Garden written by Kristin Hannah and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2010-02-02 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can a woman ever really know herself if she doesn't know her mother? From the author of the smash-hit bestseller Firefly Lane and True Colors comes Kristin Hannah's powerful, heartbreaking novel that illuminates the intricate mother-daughter bond and explores the enduring links between the present and the past. Meredith and Nina Whitson are as different as sisters can be. One stayed at home to raise her children and manage the family apple orchard; the other followed a dream and traveled the world to become a famous photojournalist. But when their beloved father falls ill, Meredith and Nina find themselves together again, standing alongside their cold, disapproving mother, Anya, who even now, offers no comfort to her daughters. As children, the only connection between them was the Russian fairy tale Anya sometimes told the girls at night. On his deathbed, their father extracts a promise from the women in his life: the fairy tale will be told one last time—and all the way to the end. Thus begins an unexpected journey into the truth of Anya's life in war-torn Leningrad, more than five decades ago. Alternating between the past and present, Meredith and Nina will finally hear the singular, harrowing story of their mother's life, and what they learn is a secret so terrible and terrifying that it will shake the very foundation of their family and change who they believe they are.

Book Synopsis Italian Wisdom by : Mary Ann Donovan
Download or read book Italian Wisdom written by Mary Ann Donovan and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-09-02 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From bumper stickers to self-help books and everything in between, people love having deep and complex thoughts presented to them in simple, short, and sometimes amusing sayings. Italian Wisdom or the World According to John is a compilation of quirky pearls of folk wisdom passed down from an Italian father to his children. John Calderone grew up in two worlds, a tight Italian community on the Lower East Side of Manhattan and the larger world of a multi-cultural America on its way to becoming a major world power. He experienced first hand the Roaring Twenties, the Great Depression, and the booming growth that followed two world wars. A raconteur by nature, John loved to tell the tales of the life he lived and the experiences he had. John saw the world through his own unique lens. He had a long list of pithy phrases he used to express the conclusions he had formed about life and how to live it. Whenever he had the opportunity, he passed his wisdom along to his family and friends. Along with providing food, clothing, and shelter to his family, he felt it was important to give his children the benefit of his wisdom to help them to navigate the world around them so that they might live joy-filled lives. While the sayings in Italian Wisdom or the World According to John seem to be simple and amusing on the surface, with reflection, they reveal a deeper meaning. In this book of essays, author Mary Ann Donovan, explores the more complicated ideas expressed in the seemingly simple and sometimes strangely expressed sayings her father, John Calderone passed down to his family.
