Sinossi

In "Little Sunshine's Holiday: A Picture from Life," Dinah Maria Mulock Craik presents a charming and insightful tale that explores the innocence and joys of childhood through the adventures of a young girl, Little Sunshine. This narrative is rich in vivid imagery and lyrical prose, reflecting Craik's ability to capture the essence of her characters and the settings in which they reside. Written during the Victorian era, the book serves as both a moral tale and a celebration of the simple pleasures of life, embodying the themes of nature, family, and community that resonate through Craik's broader body of work. Craik, a prominent figure in 19th-century literature, was not only a novelist but a poet and children's author whose works often advocated for social reform and women's rights. Having witnessed the disparities of her time, she infused her narratives with a sense of compassion and realism, drawing from her own experiences. "Little Sunshine's Holiday" is particularly significant as it reflects her belief in the transformative power of love and nature, providing a window into the values of her era while still remaining accessible to modern readers. This enchanting book is highly recommended for readers of all ages who seek a nostalgic yet profound exploration of childhood. Craik's deft storytelling and heartfelt themes make it a delightful addition to any literary collection, inviting readers to reflect on their own childhood experiences and the simple, yet potent, joys found in the world around us.

When Kaia, arrested, faces an even worse punishment, Detective Pinsley, 45, notices a strange marking on her arm and thinks she might be the key in solving a peculiar, mysterious case. Bodies are turning up dead in London, and Pinsley wonders whether it’s the work of a deranged serial killer, or of something….else.

Kaia and Pinsley embark to scour the dark corners and cobblestone streets of 19th century London in search of clues. Yet what they find may shock and horrify even them.SHADOWSEER: PARIS (Book #2) continues the story of Kaia, 17, an orphan coming of age in the Victorian Europe of the 1850s.

    Resonance in Singing and Speaking is a classic voice instruction guide by Thomas Fillebrown. Efforts to develop my own voice and the voices of my patients after operations for cleft palate, aided by anatomical study, resulted in a plan for the focusing and development of the human voice quite different from any other yet published or, so far as I know, yet proposed. This plan has proved so successful in my later life that I feel emboldened to offer it as a voice guide for the consideration of speakers and singers.
