Synopsis

The Sweet Cheat Gone Marcel Proust - This is Volume 6 of Marcel Proust's In Search Of Lost Time. The Narrator is anguished at Albertine's departure and absence. He dispatches Saint-Loup to convince her aunt Mme Bontemps to send her back, but Albertine insists the Narrator should ask, and she will gladly return. The Narrator lies and replies he is done with her, but she just agrees with him. He writes to her that he will marry Andrée, then hears from Saint-Loup of the failure of his mission to the aunt. Desperate, he begs Albertine to return, but receives word: she has died in a riding accident. He receives two last letters from her: one wishing him and Andrée well, and one asking if she can return. The Narrator plunges into suffering amid the many different memories of Albertine, intimately linked to all of his everyday sensations.

    On Prince Edward Island, where Anne Shirley grew up in the sea-sprayed town of Avonlea, there was no shortage of wonderful stories. There was the case of Ludovic Speed, who wouldn't propose to the woman he had courted for fifteen years until Anne devised a plan to "speed" him up . . . if it didn't backfire and break his heart. But no one could blame mischievous Anne for the hilarious battle of the sexes that erupted when a man-hating woman and her cat got quarantined in the same house with a woman-hating bachelor and his dog. From sprawling Penhallow Grange, where a family waits nearly forever for two quarreling lovers to break their stubborn silence, to the tumbledown farm of Old Man Shaw, who awaits the retum of his beloved daughter, L. M. Montgomery has written twelve tales of secret hopes and hidden dreams, filled with enchantment and humor.

    This book was created with both parents and children in mind. Its mission is to eliminate the nightly battle of bedtime, find the rest that parents need, and give children healthy, natural development and a great attitude through unique and exciting stories that guide them through meditation. 
    The mental and physical benefits of reading bedtime stories are now widely recognized. Kids get better at imagining things because they have to interpret a story when it's read aloud. 
    Children learn the power of their imagination, which helps them become independent readers later on with books that don't have pictures because their dreams are developed enough to draw them in. 
    This is a fantastic book to have at home, enjoy with your kids, or give a present. 
    These are just some examples of what your kid should experience to have a good night's sleep. So, if your child has trouble sleeping or you want to improve the bedtime experience, then this book is right for you!  
    What are you waiting for? 
    Let your kid relax with these incredible stories!

    Bobby Rooster often watched his favorite superheroes on T.V. He liked to watch Superman, Batman, and Spiderman. But his favorite superhero was Green Lantern. He always admired the powerful ring that John wore. Here he was again watching his favorite episode of Superman and enjoying himself. ‘Oh, if I were a superhero’ he pondered. ‘I would help everyone and ensure that the town of Chickenville was 99.9% safe.’ The constant thoughts rang through his mind. He knew if he were given such an opportunity it would be his best wish come true. 
    He then looked at the time and realized it was geared toward 11:00 a.m. It was a Tuesday. Bobby Rooster somewhat liked Tuesdays because he had no work, but he often just did fun activities. Sometimes he went to the park, other times the movies, and sometimes he went and visited Mama. Today, he wondered what he should do seeing it was not yet twelve in the afternoon. He decided to go for a quick walk around the block. His apartment was not that far from the park. At the park, he could do fun activities but his best friend Stuart the rabbit was still out of town, so he decided against going to the park today. But he changed his mind a few moments later.
