Sinopse

"Rumanian Bird and Beast Stories Rendered into English" presents a captivating collection of folktales that delve into the enchanting world of Romanian culture through animal fables and allegories. The text is rich in vivid imagery and employs a lyrical, often whimsical prose style that captures the essence of traditional storytelling. These tales are steeped in themes of morality, nature, and the human experience, inviting readers into a realm where animals articulate the virtues and vices of mankind. The uncredited authorship adds an intriguing layer, hinting at a collective cultural heritage rather than an individual voice, thus placing these stories within a broader literary context of Eastern European folklore. The anonymous author, likely a scholar or translator with a profound appreciation for Romanian culture, may have sought to preserve these folk narratives for an English-speaking audience. Their work not only bridges linguistic divides but also serves as a testament to the rich tapestry of Romanian traditions. This endeavor reflects an understanding of the significance of folklore in capturing the identity and values of a culture, illuminating the depths of human connection through shared stories. I highly recommend "Rumanian Bird and Beast Stories Rendered into English" for readers interested in folklore, cultural studies, and the universal themes found within animal tales. This collection offers a rare glimpse into the moral complexities and enchanting storytelling methods from Romania, resonating with anyone who appreciates the art of narrative as a means of cultural expression.

    FINDING THEIR MISSING GRANDMA   WILL BE  NO SMALL FEAT!    Rubi and her much more daring--and skateboard-obsessed--brother, Quinn, are visiting their grandmother on beautiful Vashon Island for the weekend. It's the first time they've taken the ferry from Seattle by themselves. But weirdly, when they arrive, Nana is nowhere to be found!   Then their Uncle James lets them in on a little secret:  Bigfoot  may have been spotted! And their Nana isn't  any  old grandma--she's the most famous Bigfoot hunter around! Trouble is, Nana should've returned by now. And nobody in all of Puget Sound has seen her! At least... nobody  human.   Rubi and Quinn will have to follow the footprints (and scat!), crack the clues, and rely on each other to find their Nana and bring her home... that is, unless Bigfoot finds them  first !

    For thirteen-year-old Noah Wright, a trip to a beautiful seaside village in Maine means the perfect start to his summer break. But when he and his friends stumble upon an abandoned lighthouse on a nearby island, a troubling mystery that haunts the town begins to reveal itself. One clue leads to another until it becomes clear that the people of Westport would rather deny the hundred-year-old legend than admit to its ghostly origins. The first instalment in a spine-chilling adventure series for kids. “…It reminded me of Goosebumps in a good way.” “…Ghostly without being too scary.”"...Great mystery. Page turner."No graphic violence or language.
