Sinopsis

In "Stories for Children," Leo Tolstoy presents a collection of moral tales that seamlessly blend simplicity with profound philosophical insights. Written in a clear and accessible literary style, these stories convey essential life lessons, emphasizing virtues such as kindness, humility, and honesty. The collection reflects Tolstoy's belief in the transformative power of storytelling, set against the backdrop of late 19th-century Russia, where he sought to address social issues and moral dilemmas through narratives that resonate across ages. Tolstoy, a towering figure in world literature, was not only a master of the novel but also deeply concerned with morality and the well-being of humanity. His own experiences and struggles with faith, societal expectations, and the quest for personal authenticity profoundly influenced his writing. This collection is rooted in his own paradoxes'Äîa nobleman questioning the values of his class'Äîand aims to impart wisdom to the youngest readers while nurturing their moral compass. "Stories for Children" is a must-read for parents, educators, and young readers alike. It invites children into a world of imagination while instilling timeless virtues. Tolstoy's masterful storytelling will captivate young minds and foster thoughtful discussions on ethics and humanity.

    The last thing Addy Davidson wants is to be on a reality TV show where the prize is a prom date with the President’s son. 
    She’s focused on her schoolwork so she can get a scholarship to an Ivy League college, uncomfortable in the spotlight, never been on a date, and didn’t even audition for it. 
    But she got selected anyway. 
    So she does her best to get eliminated on the very first show. Right before she realizes that the President’s son is possibly the most attractive guy she has ever seen in person, surprisingly nice, and seemingly unimpressed by the 99 other girls who are throwing themselves at him. 
    Addy’s totally out of her comfort zone but that may be right where God can show her all that she was meant to be.

    Are the snowy owls in trouble? Venture into the Alaskan arctic and the summer realm of these predator birds to find out. Discover the diverse species necessary to owl survival, how climate change is affecting the landscape of their nesting site of past millennia, and what it takes to do field research in this action-packed addition to the award-winning Scientists in the Field series. 
    It's July on Alaska's North Slope, and scientist Denver Holt is in Utqiagvik surveying nests. Denver has been coming here since 1992, and the snowy owls he studies have been coming here much longer: thousands of years. 
    With its mix of coastal, low-elevation tundra and a rich presence of lemmings, the North Slope is the only area in Alaska where snowy owls regularly nest. How do snowy owls decide where they will nest? How do they manage to arrive at locations where food will be abundant? What drives the success of these delicate tundra ecosystems? These are the mysteries Denver is trying to solve to help ensure a bright future for these elegant hunters.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
    
    From USA Today and #1 bestseller Morgan Rice comes A CLASH OF FATES (Book #21), the twenty-first book in the bestselling series THE SORCERER'S RING. The series begins with A QUEST OF HEROES (book #1), which has over 5,000 five star ratings!
    
    In A CLASH OF FATES, the heroes of the Ring race against time as ancient prophecies unfold with terrifying speed. Gwendolyn transforms from exiled queen to battlefield commander, rallying forgotten communities into a formidable fighting force and undertaking a dangerous ritual that grants her unprecedented power—just as enemy forces descend upon her position.
    
    Thor launches a seemingly impossible assault against a Titan's advance forces, his victory turning bitter as an even greater threat looms on the horizon. Guwayne, operating under a false identity among resistance fighters, can no longer hide his extraordinary abilities when a surprise attack forces him to reveal his true power, attracting allies and enemies alike with the display. 
    
    Within the fractured Ring, Sir Kellan's guerrilla resistance joins with unlikely allies when Lord Aldrich uncovers the kingdom's most terrible secret—that their homeland was built atop an ancient prison containing a threat more devastating than any they've faced before. As these parallel struggles intensify, the royal family must each find their role in a prophecy written before their birth, with the fate of not just the kingdom but the world itself hanging in the balance.
    
    With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, THE SORCERER’S RING is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and monsters, of intrigues and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal. It is a tale of honor and courage, of fate and destiny, of sorcery. It is a fantasy that brings us into a world we will never forget, and which will appeal to all ages and genders.
    
    Future books in the series are also available!
