EAST OF THE SUN AND WEST OF THE MOON and other Moon Stories for Children
Author: Various
Publisher: Abela Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 8827573054
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
Contained within this volume are the stories of East of the Sun and West of the Moon, Monica the Moon Child and The Swan Maidens – all classic children’s stories from yesteryear which, even today, children want to hear and read. Also included are two poems which relate to the moon - The Man in the Moon and Hey Diddle, Diddle – which can also be considered classic children’s rhymes. While the stories are entertaining and enjoyable to read, the numerous illustrations will fire children’s imaginations and take them into fairy land, where, of course, anything is possible. Nowhere has this “firing of the imagination” been made more apparent than in the entertainments industry with the advent of Green Screen-CGI technology which has enabled big children’s imaginations to run wild and bring all sorts of apparitions to life - especially in the fairy and folk tales genre where we have seen a wholesome revival of interest. The most thoughtful, progressive educators and parents have come to recognize the cultural value of folklore and fairy tales, fables and legends, not only as means of fostering and directing the power of the child's imagination, but as a basis for literary interpretation and appreciation throughout life not to mention increasing the literacy ability of children. So, find that comfy chair, have your child snuggle in and set fire to their imagination with this short collection of MOON STORIES for CHILDREN. 10% of the profit from the sale of this book will be donated to charities, =============== TAGS: Folklore, fairy tales, myths, legends, bedtime, children’s stories, fables, poems, poetry, moon, east of the sun, west of the moon, monica, moon child, swan maidens, man in the moon, diddle, rhymes, entertain, white bear, lassie, castle, north wind, east, south, west, fly, change, silver bell, brother, sister, moonship, balloon, prince, mother, father, kiss, thick wood, forest, old hag, bundle, princess, gold apple, long nose, winter, sleigh, craters, mountains, side of the moon, garden, babies, Gardeness, roses, gloom, face, nurse, hunter, clothes, marry, children, dress, king, queen, six sisters, dolphin, flew, seven Bends, seven Glens, Crystal Mountain, cow, jump, cat, fiddle, dish, spoon, ran away

The Cognitive Structure of Scientific Revolutions
Author: Hanne Andersen
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139452630
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 181
Book Description
Thomas Kuhn's Structure of Scientific Revolutions became the most widely read book about science in the twentieth century. His terms 'paradigm' and 'scientific revolution' entered everyday speech, but they remain controversial. In the second half of the twentieth century, the new field of cognitive science combined empirical psychology, computer science, and neuroscience. In this book, the theories of concepts developed by cognitive scientists are used to evaluate and extend Kuhn's most influential ideas. Based on case studies of the Copernican revolution, the discovery of nuclear fission, and an elaboration of Kuhn's famous 'ducks and geese' example of concept learning, this volume, first published in 2006, offers accounts of the nature of normal and revolutionary science, the function of anomalies, and the nature of incommensurability.

Other Moons

Publisher: Columbia University Press

Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
In this anthology, Vietnamese writers describe their experience of what they call the American War and its lasting legacy through the lens of their own vital artistic visions. A North Vietnamese soldier forms a bond with an abandoned puppy. Cousins find their lives upended by the revelation that their fathers fought on opposite sides of the war. Two lonely veterans in Hanoi meet years after the war has ended through a newspaper dating service. A psychic assists the search for the body of a long-vanished soldier. The father of a girl suffering from dioxin poisoning struggles with corrupt local officials. The twenty short stories collected in Other Moons range from the intensely personal to narratives that deal with larger questions of remembrance, trauma, and healing. By a diverse set of authors, including many veterans, they span styles from social realism to tales of the fantastic. Yet whether describing the effects of Agent Orange exposure or telling ghost stories, all speak to the unresolved legacy of a conflict that still haunts Vietnam. Among the most widely anthologized and popular pieces of short fiction about the war in Vietnam, these works appear here for the first time in English. Other Moons offers Anglophone audiences an unparalleled opportunity to experience how the Vietnamese think and write about the conflict that consumed their country from 1954 to 1975—a perspective still largely missing from American narratives.
