This NEW book exhibits a rich history of a Native American creation story which is among the thousands of accounts for the origins of our world. Native Americans have the ability to seek spiritual power in the natural world which allows for a deeper understanding of the connections that all beings have with each other. Native American origin stories are rooted in mystery and legend. Most stories are passed down orally from generation to generation focusing on children. Did you know that all Native American cultures offer many creation legends? Ideas and stories about the beginning of the world are all so different but all lead to the same conclusion that we are all related. "We must teach the children about nature and relationships at an early age in order for them to be able to develop rich and meaningful thinking and decisions". Come along on this fun story written by a member of the Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape Indian Tribe, Tyrese Gould Jacinto, that tells about our creation. Native American stories are always told to the children, not only keep history, but it allows them to use their great imagination about subjects that have deep hidden meanings of the way things really are. This story is great for all ages! The main subject of this story is Kishelëmukònk Ahkanshi Kshitay which means The Creators Great Soup in Lenape. With great illustrations to accompany the story, you will be inspired to "contemplate the universe" and how we are related to everything that was created.

En el relato de Marta Cardoso, la figura simbólica del "unicornio" conserva aquellos elementos más tradicionales de la leyenda, pero también se resignifica a partir de un contexto más bien regional, con características propias y originales.La concesión del nacimiento de un potrillo por parte de una divinidad (luna) entroniza la ficción dentro del contexto mítico, pero ahí nomás se hibrida de ese nuevo campo de significación que es la ruralidad. Esto hace posible que los diferentes elementos culturales -los más folclóricos y los más "novedosos"- se resuelvan dentro de una narrativa que amalgama los géneros maravilloso y realista a la vez.Tomando como referencia lo anteriormente dicho, el cuento adquiere la forma ilusoria de una fábula de la antigüedad, incluso con la tipificación de su personaje principal que, al parecer, no rehúye del molde que lo ha definido en el imaginario social: el unicornio era un animal de hábitos solitarios y muy esquivo. Sin embargo, se produce un desplazamiento por el elemento lúdico (el juego de pelota, el cosquilleo de una vaca) que se superpone por su festividad (es "gracioso"; antagonismo con la agresión que refiere el cuento popular) a ese origen "sacro" y se opone a la agresión -que refiere el cuento popular- del caballo blanco, nacido de las aguas sagradas de un lago.De todos modos, en el desenlace de las acciones es posible regresar al punto donde "ese hermoso bebé potrillo" acaba por ser ese "huraño" de las historias míticas y/o legendarias que, bajo "la sombra del sauce grande" fundamenta la elección de su soledad. Así, el apartamiento de la gente del campo es una metáfora del relato que reproduce el estereotipo, pero también redescubre la identidad del protagonista ante el doble juego de su ser (como criatura irreal) y de su nombre (como "Rayo"), porque ha evolucionado, ha madurado para saber escoger su libertad.Por último, la imagen final escenifica no solo la velocidad del animal fabuloso, sino también el retorno a su verdadero útero: la luna. Su presencia ha sido la de siempre: mágica; pero también muy verosímil para unos campesinos, y para nosotros, los lectores, muy deseosos de "vivir" una experiencia "realista", más allá de un cuerno fantástico.Marcos Alex David PérezProfesor en letras(Universidad Nacional de La Pampa)Docente en el nivel secundario, Especialista en Escritura y Literatura

The Fairy Books, or "Coloured" Fairy Books is a collection of fairy tales divided into twelve books, each associated with a different colour. Collected together by Andrew Land they are sourced from a number of different countries and were translated by Lang's wife and other translators who also retold many of the tales. The collection has been incalculably important and, although he did not source the stories himself direct from the oral tradition he can make claim to the first English translation of many. First published in 1903, The Crimson Fairy Book is the 8th volume in this series.

Once upon a time, a beautiful queen was cursed by a dark faery. That curse, inherited by twin princesses, Aura and Luna, binds their lives in the strangest of ways. At an early age, the girls were more than sisters. They were the strongest of allies until a combination of jealousy, anger and dark magic tore their relationship to shreds. Aura took everything from Luna: her home, her family, and her love by murdering the prince who'd chosen her instead of Aura. Luna wants revenge, but she's running out of time. She must sever the magical bond tying her life to Aura's before their eighteenth birthday or be bound to her forever. In desperation, she seeks help from a dark fae prince, but the price is steep - a piece of her soul.Fate is a real witch. Luna was willing to give up anything to stop her sister, until Prince Phillip of Grithim, the brother of the only man she's ever loved, falls into her life. Neither of them can fight their attraction, despite their guilt. With Aura hell-bent on destroying everything she holds dear, Luna must decide whether she wants revenge or Phillip. She can't have both, and in the end, this may be a battle both sisters lose.

As the stalwart light of the once-great Kingdom of Solas begins to darken, as magic leaves the land and beasts of the night take their roost, the last of the kingdom's people begin their desperate journey in search of a new day. These are the unfortunate histories that lead to the fall of the Castle of Spirals, the end of an age of wonders, and the lives of the good few that continued their endless struggle in the face of such overwhelming shadows. The stories in this book are not for those seeking tales of a happy end or meaning in the abyss, they are simple accounts of the humans, fae, and magical beasts that were there to witness as all was ground to dust. For those of you brave enough to venture to this lost land, I welcome you with a heavy heart to the isle, the land of spirals.
