Book Description
It is an ordinary tale of not so ordinary circumstance, where nothing is as it seems. It is a tale where heroes aren't exactly heroes and villains save the day. It is a test of endurance and a journey that leads to a cryptic discovery that perhaps we are nothing more than scarecrows on our perches dreaming of better lives. It is ultimately the age old tale of good verses evil, but in this case, the lines between those domains are as clear as chalk lines beneath a tempest storm.

Book Description
From the traditional straw guy to a painted sheet-metal mermaid, these 30 scarecrows and their yard figure cousins are simply out of the ordinary—and that’s great news for the many crafters who compete in “Best Scarecrow” contests held at fairs and other venues throughout America. It’s easy to construct one of these wildly creative figures with the information and instruction contained in this whimsical, charming celebration of scarecrow art. Some are crafted from organic materials such as gourds and bamboo. Others use recycled items, including a “Tin Can Man” and a quirky woman made from old umbrellas. A few double as a planter, trellis, or address marker. Whether to scare away birds or attract attention to the garden, these make great additions to any outdoor space.

Nightmare of the Scarecrows
Author: Ian MacDonald
Publisher: Badger Publishing
ISBN: 1788371712
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 32
Book Description
Josh and Safi dream of winning the scarecrow competition, but dreams turn to nightmares when the scarecrows go missing. Have they been stolen ... or did they walk? Graphic novels serve a number of needs. They encourage reluctant readers because of the high ratio of pictures to text and because they are viewed as a leisure activity rather than school work. In spite of this perception, pupils can learn a lot from them, such as the use of direct speech, the logical order in which to read text boxes and, of course, narrative forms. This brilliantly illustrated series of six books will excite and engage readers of about 11-13 who have a very low reading age of 6-7.

DREAMS OF THE STARS
Author: Collin R. Skocik
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1304092917
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
On a mission to circumnavigate the universe, the crew of the Eldorado discovers an entire hidden universe, separated from our universe by the speed of light, composed of temporal dimensions. Yet the astronauts, their overtaxed minds pushed beyond rational thought, are increasingly unable to study the very phenomena they were sent to discover. Then the fighting breaks out. Colleagues gun one another down, friends turn against friends, and in the irrational combat the ship itself is damaged. The mission itself is part of the structure of the cosmos; the end of time is both the cause and the effect of the relativistic journey. Human nature becomes part of the physics of spacetime, and whoever controls the Eldorado controls the fate of the universe.
