Book Description
The moon is full and shining on a mango tree heavy with fruit. Beneath its leaves sits a little blue house, and beneath its eaves, sits little Anuenue and her mama. On magical Hawaiian nights such as this, thoughts take flight. Gazing at the mango tree, Anu asks her mama: "What if I ate up all those mangoes one by one, and I got so full of them that I turned into a mango tree?" Capturing the spirit of every child's imagination and combined yearning for and fear of independence, Moon Mangoes explores the "What if" back and forth exchange between a child and parent, and captures that magical before-bedtime hour when anything is possible and love is constant.

Timeless Magical Fairy Tales
Author: Hseham Amrahs
Publisher: Mahesh Dutt Sharma
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 54
Book Description
The first mention of the word "fairy" in any literary work appears in the "Shahnama" of Firdausi. Firdausi not only uses this word but also presents the readers with a new character by cutting "fairy" from its historical context. With his original imagination, he even changes the context of this story. As a result, a positive attitude towards the fairies appears to have formed. Fairy tales at their core assure the victory of good amid the struggle between good and evil, which has been later embellished by poets, storytellers, and historians in their respective talents. The presence of a demon in fairy tales is not as important as the belief that it can be defeated.
