Alissa and Sarah are sisters, and they live on a long, dry, dusty road called Curtis Road. Alissa, as the oldest, does not really like hanging out with her sister.

However, there is a problem. The key to the fairies' happiness has been stolen, and unless Alissa and Sarah can help them get it back, sadness will spread to outside of the Fairy Kingdom. So together, they go on an adventure that is equally a journey of discovery.

"High Quality Paperback" -- Not so much

The text is brilliant, as always with Edith Nisbet. The reason for the three-star rating is its production values as a physical book.

This is a perfect-bound print-on-demand book, on standard US letter-size paper, of the Project Gutenberg e-text of the 1924 McMillan UK edition. Right down to the ragged-right monospaced type and the bracketed text in place of the missing illustrations. Among the publisher's few additions was to automatically paginate the text: The 140 clearly numbered pages in a book with a table of illustrations referring to page numbers over 250 -- but no illustrations to be found -- was collectively my first clue to what I was actually looking at. (Sadly, even this appears to have been done by someone with no prior experience in desktop publishing: the last page of each story is centered vertically on the page, with results such as page 51: a line and a half of text in the middle of an otherwise blank page, and a page number centered at the bottom.)

None of which is terrible, but you should know what you're getting. With access to a good duplex laser printer and a local copy shop that does binding, you can print the Gutenberg text and have it perfect-bound yourself for roughly the same price. With perhaps an extra hour of effort, your version could also have the illustrations. Another hour and under $10 more in materials, and you could replicate the 1924 edition's pagination as well.

If I Could Give This Book 10,000 Stars -- I Would! :)

This book is a collection of short stories, and finding it again has been a highly emotional experience for me. I had read it YEARS ago in the Library when I was but a small child, and loved every syllable of it; then the Library LOST it, and I pined for it terribly. I had even forgotten its title (I had *thought* it was "Nine Unlikely Tales" -- but this turns out to be a completely different book).

Then about eight years ago, as an adult of 32, I FINALLY laid hands on a copy of "The Magic World" once more. Oh my! How I adored reading those old fine magical stories again! How I wept -- WEPT! -- to read all those old stories which I had so long loved and lost and now found again! Who could ever forget such stories as "Accidental Magic", or "The Cat-Hood Of Maurice", or "Kenneth And The Carp", or "Belinda And Bellamant; Or The Bells Of Carrillon-Land"??? This last has a very catchy verse in it ("Out! Out! Into the night!/The belfry bells are ours by right!") which I have never forgotten and which I looked for -- and found -- and triumphantly BELLOWED at the very top of my lungs the instant the book was again in my hands! Ah, me!!!

These stories are all "Classic Nesbit", and even if the book is "brand new" to you and not nostalgic as it is for me, it is still well worth the getting, and at a VERY reasonable price!

One final note of historic literary interest: the story "The Aunt and Amabel" -- with its train station tucked away inside a wardrobe in a spare room -- was C. S. Lewis' inspiration for setting the land of Narnia inside a similar wardrobe in "The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe".

Narrator: Christian Down

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-18-17

Publisher: Orca Book Publishers

Publisher's Summary:

In 1935, a nine-year-old boy's family held a forbidden Potlatch in faraway Kingcome Inlet. Watl'kina slipped from his bed to bear witness. In the Big House masked figures danced by firelight to the beat of the drum. And there, he saw a figure he knew. Aboriginal elder Alfred Scow and award-winning author Andrea Spalding collaborate to tell the story, to tell the secret of the dance.

Members Reviews:

Great Book.

Great book. Great price. Quick delivery. I was pleased when I got it so soon and in such good condition. I will buy from this site again.

Breaking The Silence

Picture a man whose life's work has been to uphold the law. Picture that same man with a childhood secret that could have sent his family to jail. Now picture Canada in 1935 when Aboriginal cultural practices like the Potlatch were forbidden. Award-winning children's author Andrea Spalding and Judge Alfred Scow, a Kwakwa'ka'wakw Nations elder have teamed up to tell a story based on the judge's childhood, Secret of the Dance. It is beautifully illustrated by Darlene Gait whose blend of high realism and native motifs enrich every page.

"Many years ago, when the world and I were younger, my family defied the government." begins Judge Scow's story. The narrator, Watl'kina tells us that in 1935, an Indian Agent (government representative) warned his parents that the Potlatch and the dancing that were a part of a Potlatch ceremony were illegal. Watl'kina's family knew that the Potlatch was an essential part of their cultural identity. They used a fishing trip to disguise a visit to family in a nearby village hosting a Potlatch. They were careful to keep the reason for their visit secret even from their children. Their attendance at a Potlatch ceremony could result in the adult members of the family being jailed and their children being taken away. As the oldest child, Watl'kina was charged with looking after his younger siblings while his parents attended the village long house. But, the drums from the long house called him and Watl'kina could not resist. He crept through the night to the long house where he witnessed not only the unforgettable ceremony, but a familiar figure dancing. It was his father.

The great joy in reading quality picture books lay in the many levels that they can be read at. Secret of the Dance definately resides in this quality picture book category. A young child could simply enjoy the adventure of a trip and sneaking out at night to witness something special but forbidden, while the more experienced reader will understand the historical and cutural importance of bearing witness and yet having to hide that knowlege. Furthermore, First Nations readers can take tremendous pride in being part of a cuture able to withstand repeated and often times brutal attemps to destroy it.

While Secret of the Dance is fictional, the danger of being caught at a Potlatch would have been all too real. It created a blanket of silence during Judge Scow's childhood and a climate of secrecy. Secret of the Dance is another step in throwing off the blanket of silence over a shameful chapter in our history, and one that nearly destroyed the rich cultural heritage of Coastal First Nations. Healing can only happen when a wound is exposed and treated. Stories like Judge Scow's are a long needed medicine for wounds too long covered up.

Title: The Tale of Baboushka

Subtitle: A Traditional Christmas Story

Author: Elena Pasquali

Narrator: Abby Guinness

Format: Unabridged

Length: 3 mins

Language: English

Release date: 07-31-17

Publisher: Lion Children's

Genres: Kids, Ages 5-7

Publisher's Summary:

A popular traditional Christmas folktale from Russia, retold for a young audience, warmly touches on the true meaning of Christmas.

Baboushka is busy with her house - she has so much to do. The late night arrival of three travelers at her cottage door interrupts her domestic routine of cleaning and polishing, and although she gives them excellent hospitality, she is relieved that they plan to travel on the following day. When the men explain that they are in search of a newborn king, Baboushka wonders whether to join them, but does not want to leave the house in a mess. Only later, when she sees the star and hears angels singing, does she realize she made the wrong choice. She hurries to take her own gift to the king but cannot find him. Tradition has it that she searches still, and wherever she hears the sound of children in a house, she leaves a secret gift.

Read this to my first graders to tie in with our Russia cultural project. The kids loved it!

Discussion-Inducing

Combining elements of the Bible's harried Martha and the traditional story of St. Nicholas, Elena Pasquali's The Tale of Baboushka is a thought provoking Christmas folk tale.

Baboushka ("grandma" in Russian) works hard to maintain her home; there's not a speck of dust around and absolutely everything is in it's place. She also loves to sew, and has a cupboard full of dolls, teddy bears, and other tidily made toys. One winter night, Baboushka hears a knock. She's a bit grumbly because she's in the middle of cooking - but she answers the door to find three travelers in rich clothes. They are looking for a place to spend the night.

Baboushka welcomes them into her home, tucks their hats and cloaks away and serves them food and "home-brewed ale." She asks about their heavy bags. The travelers say they are "gifts for a king....A king for whom a new star shines...the king of love, the prince of peace." Excited, Baboushka wants to give the travelers gifts from her cupboard to take to the king. They tell her she should come along with them instead: "Leave cares aside and follow the king."

"'Oh...no!' said Baboushka. 'I...I'm not quite ready...I'll find your footsteps, and I'll watch for the star. But first I must sweep and clean and tidy and wash and iron and brush and scrub and so much more...'"

By the time Baboushka is done with her chores, she can no longer find the traveler's footsteps in the snow, and the bright star is gone from the sky. So she tries to find the king without guidance. On the way, she meets many children, and she can't resist leaving them with a sweet gift from her cupboard.

"Still she is seeking. Still she is giving, and all for the sake of the king of love."

What I Like: This folk tale was originally designed to explain the presence of gifts on Christmas - rather like the original stories of St. Nicolas. But what I most enjoy about the story is the important message that we must follow Jesus today - not wait until tomorrow. Like the Martha of the Bible, we must focus on God above all other things - even good things, like keeping a neat house.

delightful

I had read about E. Nesbit forever and finally am reading a couple of her children's "magic" books. She was the model for Edward Eager's magic books, and I understand why he admired her. (My granddaughter and I loved all of Eager's books.) The children in The Phoenix are very real, each with "its" own personality. (Nesbit solves the he/she problem by simply referring to each child with "it" -- funny, but sensible. She clearly intends no insult.) They are very real-world children who happen to encounter magic -- the psammead in The Five Children and It, and the phoenix in this book. Although as Cyril points out, they are probably the kind of children likely to encounter magic. Even the phoenix has its own distinct personality -- rather proud of itself. It is, after all, thousands of years old and is the only one of its kind.

The carpet (owned by the phoenix), which finds its way into the nursery, is magic. But as the children had discovered with the psammead, getting what one wishes for is not all it is cracked up to be. So the children find themselves in one not entirely desirable adventure after another.

The book is British, of course, since Nesbit is, and it was written over 100 years ago, so some of the settings and language may seem a little quaint. I found this rather delightful. These children who play in a "nursery" and have their "tea" are very much like the children today who may be reading this book.

I have given both The Five Children and It and The Phoenix and the Carpet to my granddaughter, largely because she enjoyed such books as Half Magic. When I send her books, I enclose a letter about them, and in this letter I reminded her that as Half Magic opened, the four children are walking home from the library, where they have just checked out yet another book by their favorite author, E. Nesbit. And since they can't wait to begin reading it, Jane starts reading to the others on their 2-mile walk home. They are forced to go to bed, but except for that, they do not stop their reading until the book is finished. In that narrative, Eager is I think reflecting his own love for Nesbit's writing. What was different about her treatment of magic is, it wasn't about fairyland, with dragons and ogres.
