Stanley, the Stalwart Dragon: The Fabled Forest Series

Stanley, the Stalwart Dragon: The Fabled Forest Series Review

Stanley, a young dragon has run away from home. He feels that he is a failure. As dragons go, he probably is. He's kind, soft spoken, a good friend and cannot, for the life of him, breathe FIRE! Emma, an earthling girl, plays in the woodland forest next to her farm. The loveable villain is a raven named City Slick, the Third. A lady bug, named Persnickety is Stanley's best friend and side kick. Thomas, the sea turtle, and Cheets, the elf, are just a few of Stanley's new friends. Slick lures Stanley away from the forest and sells him to a circus. It is Donald, a faerie, and Emma's quest to find Stanley and rescue him. The fable addresses bigotry and kindness to others even though they might be different from us. While this is an adventure story and full of laughter, it teaches children that no matter what, it is never a good idea to run away from home and is frequently very dangerous.

The Lower Echelon

The Lower Echelon Review

In the coal mining valleys of South Wales in the 1920s and 1930s, injustices, perpetrated by the mine owners and property owners were rife, and individuals were treated as disposable chattels. In response to many gross injustices, the men of the valleys formed a secret group called 'The Dragon Riders' and prosecuted their own brand of justice. Dai Morgan and his comrades, sons and grandsons of 'The Dragon Riders', carried their inbred sense of good against evil into the Welsh Riflemen and thence, across the world. As soldiers employed in the lower echelons, they were often uninformed about greater political aims, so they formed their own black and white opinions about events as they encountered them. They were men of courage who surmounted life's difficulties with raw humour, large amounts of beer and regularly rode the Dragon, be their exploits killing or sexual.

In Theda Bara's Tent follows the adventures of a spirited orphan who makes his way into the burgeoning movie business in the days when the screen was silent and the moguls were just small-time theater owners. Harry Sirkus is so brave and lovable everyone wants to help him including a struggling theater owner named Louis B. Mayer who, at age 22, living in Haverhill, Massachusetts, is years away from being studio head at MGM. Harry runs away from Haverhill at age 13 and must make his way in the world alone. After many adventures and heartbreaking struggles he goes to New York to work for the avaricious William Fox, founder of Fox News, a newsreel company. In his search for love and prosperity, Harry encounters screen stars, Tin Pan Alley song pluggers, bootleggers, dare-devil cameramen, movie moguls, and a young gossip columnist who steals his heart. Rich in historical context, with a cast of characters real and imagined, this page-turner follows Harry Sirkus as he makes a mark in the flourishing film industry and goes on to become a famous news broadcaster. Harry's personality is so captivating and vivid readers will be hard-pressed to remember that the author made him up. Written by Diana Altman who grew up in the movie business, this is fictionalized history at its best.

Fears, Facades, and Funny Freckles

Fears, Facades, and Funny Freckles Review

FEARS, FACADES, and FUNNY FRECKLES, is a fiction novel with a wide range of emotions. It seesaws from devastating sorrow and grief, to wellsprings of joy and loving tenderness. Essie Fisher marries the man of her youthful dreams, Thomas Thaddeus Baker. But insecurity heightens as he develops a facade concerning his love towards her, injuring Essie's tattered self-esteem even further. Wade McNally was abandoned by his runaway mother and abused by his hot-tempered father. Suffering inwardly by the cruel shooting of his beagle, Wade joins the army, fighting in the jungles of the Vietnam War during the early nineteen seventies. Returning, he must deal with posttraumatic stress, all the loss he encountered, and inward scars. Jeremiah, an ex-prisoner and desperately in need of grammar skills arrives as a steady anchor. Shining God's love to downtrodden souls, he helps spin the Potter's wheel with the aid of the Holy Spirit. His poorly pronounced words miraculously soar on the flip-flapping wings of faith. Will Essie and Wade discover the necessary fortitude, courage, and love to forgive and come to grips with their raging past once and for all? Only time will tell-or will it?

Freckles (Annotated)

Freckles (Annotated) Review

The hero is an adult orphan, just under twenty years of age, with bright red hair and a freckled complexion. His left hand is missing at the wrist, and has been since before he can remember. Raised since infancy in a Chicago orphanage, he speaks with a slight Irish accent, "scarcely definite enough to be called a brogue." Exhausted after days of walking, he applies for a job with the Grand Rapids lumber company, guarding timber in the Limberlost Swamp. The lumber company field manager, McLean, is impressed by the boy's polite assertiveness and hires him despite his youth and disability. He gives his name only as "Freckles", insisting that he has no name of his own. He claims the name given him in the orphanage (which we never learn) "is no more my name than it is yours". So that he has a name to put down on the books, McLean gives Freckles the name of his own father, James Ross McLean. Freckles' duty is to twice a day walk the perimeter of the lumber company's land, a seven mile trek through lonely swampland, and to be on the watch for those who aim to steal the expensive timber. McLean's chief worry is Black Jack Carter, who has sworn to smuggle several priceless trees out of the swamp. Freckles' weapons are limited to a revolver and a stout stick, which he carries at all times and uses to test to wire that marks the company's boundaries. At night Freckles boards with Duncan, head teamster for the lumber company, and Duncan's wife, who becomes a mother figure to Freckles.
Initially terrified of the wilderness after a lifetime in an urban environment, Freckles first conquers his fears and then develops an interest in the wildlife of the swamp. He is touched by the beauty he sees, and his frustration and curiosity leads him to purchase several books on natural history, and look upon the creatures of the swamp as his friends. He creates a "room" in the swamp, where he has transplanted the most unique plant specimens he can find. After a year in the swamp, his hard work and faithfulness lead McLean to offer a thousand dollars to anyone who can show him a cut stump from a tree stolen under Freckles' watch. Freckles' gets an opportunity to prove his capabilities as a guard when Wessner, a recently fired lumberman, comes upon Freckles on his rounds and offers him five hundred dollars to look the other way while Black Jack's gang of thieves steals several prime trees. After initially playing dumb to gain information, Freckles puts his gun and stick aside and fights Wessner using only his one fist. He wins, and drives Wessner from the swamp.
