Synopsis

“Jack and the bean-stalk. Humpty Dumpty” is a collection of the two most famous English folktales and fairy tales, which was retold and illustrated by W.W. Denslow in 1903.
 
The “Jack and the bean-stalk” summary:
 
“After climbing a vine sprouting from magic beans, Jack encounters an apparently fearsome giant who had stolen money from Jack's late father; Jack calls the giant's bluff and convinces him to become a side show in a circus, with Jack as his manager”
 
The “Humpty Dumpty” is written in prose:
 
“Humpty-Dumpty was a smooth, round little chap, with a winning smile, and a great golden heart in his broad breast. Only one thing troubled Humpty, and that was, that he might fall and crack his thin, white skin; he wished to be hard, all the way through, for he felt his heart wabble when he walked, or ran about, so off he went to the Black Hen for advice,”
 
also includes the famous rhyme
 
“Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.All the king's horses and all the king's menCouldn't put Humpty together again.”
 
The “Animedia Company” e-book edition (2013) contains the original extraordinary colorful illustrations by William Wallace Denslow, which were carefully restored by a publisher. This edition is modified especially for the e-book format.

    November 18th, 1929. In her small village in Newfoundland, Celia is setting the table for her 13th birthday celebration when the house starts to shake. It’s an earthquake, rumbling under the Atlantic Ocean. A few hours later, the sea water disappears from the harbor, only to rush back in a wave almost 30 feet high, destroying nearly everything in its path. Buildings, boats, and winter supplies of fish and food are washed away, and Celia and her community are devastated. With their only phone line cut off and no safe route to get help, they are isolated and facing a long, cold, hungry winter.
    		 
    Their house destroyed and village in ruins, Celia and her family must band together and share the work needed for the community to survive. Can Celia find the courage to help her injured loved ones? Will help arrive before it’s too late?
    		 
    Based on the true story of an earthquake that shook Newfoundland’s Burin Peninsula, A Terrible Tide tells the tale of this forgotten disaster from the point of view of a young girl whose life is turned upside down.
