Sinopse

A cinematic tale of passion, war, loyalty, betrayal, and retribution “These events I relate are the living seeds, and they will bear bloody fruit, I promise.” So says Ulysses, King of Ithaca, as he recounts the origins of the Trojan War. Renowned Greek mythologist Bernard Evslin masterfully depicts the ten-year war: its beginnings rooted in discord among the gods; the seduction of the famed beauty Helen of Troy; and the spectacular development of the Trojan Horse, Ulysses’ cunning ploy to win the war. Evslin brings to life the dramatic twists and turns of this classic tale of human folly, mortal heroism, and the brutality and brilliance that have come down through the ages.

    This collection of Christmas nursery rhymes, complete with book cover images, and accompanying opening/closing song and background music, is designed to be a comprehensive and immersive holiday experience for children and families. The primary purpose of these rhymes is to capture the magic, wonder, and diverse traditions of the Christmas season in a format that is both engaging and accessible to young minds, particularly those aged six to eight. 
    The intent behind this collection is multifaceted. First, it seeks to provide a fresh and original source of festive storytelling that goes beyond the classic carols and rhymes. By introducing new characters, such as (in later collections) the Christmas starfish and the caroling mice, alongside beloved figures like Santa Claus and the Nutcracker, the collection aims to spark children's imaginations and create new holiday traditions. The rhymes are crafted to be easily readable and memorable, with rhythmic verses that support early literacy skills and a love for poetry. 
    Furthermore, the collection is designed to be a versatile resource for parents and educators. These shorter rhymes are perfect for recitation and memorization and offer narratives for bedtime stories or classroom reading. The inclusion of opening and closing songs transforms the book into a potential musical or theatrical production, encouraging creative expression and performance.

    “My purpose, and the intention behind my books, is to guide others from the very beginning to look within themselves and embrace their unique selves and authenticity. We need to become aware and reflect on our own inner child and heal ourselves in order to raise our next generation with love, free of our expectations and demands of society. When we do this, we break free from the chains of our own upbringing and societal programming allowing our children to become their authentic selves unapologetically, and we as parents find who we truly are among the process.”
