Stay Dragons stay! - A bring-along book for small and large people

Sonja Tolevski

Sinopse

What if we already learned as children to firmly rely on ourselves and our feelings? What if we took life easier and believed more in us as adults? Leo is a dragon that has made it his task to re-open the eyes of us humans for what isn't visible but rather remarkable and noticeable. Should we be able to regain this knowledge we will be changed – towards certain self-confidence. …'We are dragons. And as a dragon I've got my duties. Of course the level of difficulty of our duties is different. Sometimes they are easier to perform, sometimes a bit more difficult. Very often it depends on where we live and, more importantly, who with.' He briefly thought about it and then quickly continued before I was able to interrupt him. He seemed to know me. I would have loved to ask a question but he didn't want me to have the opportunity. He immediately continued, 'Unfortunately you people can't see us. Well, that is actually not quite true. It's mostly the little people who may be able to see us better…'

Human Is - He Came Back...

Philip K. Dick

Human Is by Philip K. Dick - She noticed the change in her husband -- but she had married for better or worse!
Jill Herrick's blue eyes filled with tears. She gazed at her husband in unspeakable horror. "You're — you're hideous!" she wailed.
Lester Herrick continued working, arranging heaps of notes and graphs in precise piles.
"Hideous," he stated, "is a value judgment. It contains no factual information." He sent a report tape on Centauran parasitic life whizzing through the desk scanner. "Merely an opinion. An expression of emotion, nothing more."
Jill stumbled back to the kitchen. Listlessly, she waved her hand to trip the stove into activity. Conveyor belts in the wall hummed to life, hurrying the food from the underground storage lockers for the evening meal.
She turned to face her husband one last time. "Not even a little while?" she begged. "Not even —"
"Not even for a month. When he comes you can tell him. If you haven't the courage, I'll do it. I can't have a child running around here. I have too much work to do. This report on Betelgeuse XI is due in ten days." Lester dropped a spool on Fomalhautan fossil implements into the scanner. "What's the matter with your brother? Why can't he take care of his own child?"
Jill dabbed at swollen eyes. "Don't you understand? I want Gus here! I begged Frank to let him come. And now you —"
"I'll be glad when he's old enough to be turned over to the Government." Lester's thin face twisted in annoyance. "Damn it, Jill, isn't dinner ready yet? It's been ten minutes! What's wrong with that stove?"
