The Magical Land of Noom - Written and Illustrated by Johnny Gruelle
Author: Johnny Gruelle
Publisher: Read Books Ltd
ISBN: 1528782593
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 167
Book Description
'The Magical Land of Noom' is written and illustrated by Johnny Gruelle. Gruelle (1880 - 1930), was an American artist and political cartoonist, as well as a children's book illustrator and author. Gruelle is best known for his 'Raggedy Ann Series', which chart the adventures of a little doll with red yarn for hair and a triangle nose. This particular story does not feature Raggedy Ann, but it tells the tale of Johnny and Janey, two children who escape from their backyard and fly away to the moon - having many strange encounters, and even more great adventures in the process. With a flying machine built of wooden spoons and old boards, they discover an enchanted kingdom on the 'dark side of the moon', which at first appears as paradise. With the arrival of a wicked magician, the plot thickens, and the two children's lives are never the same again. Sought after by collectors, this re-printed edition showcases Gruelle's original text, further enhanced by his wonderful colour drawings, in order that the two may be fully appreciated by young and old alike.

Indomitus Sum
Author: Robert W. Brady, Jr
Publisher: Robert W Brady, Jr
ISBN: 0979367972
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
The battle for Fovea is on, and a girl named Raven and a man named Jack aren't even sure of which side they should be on. On one side is the Emperor, Rancor Mordetur, from their home planet of Earth. He seems to have a lot on this side - a massive army of highly trained warriors, the most feared witch on Fovea as his wife and superior technology born of another world. On the other is every Fovean Nation; savage Man and wild Uman, long-lived Uman-Chi and merciless Swamp Devils and Slee; all of them unwilling to be subjects of the Empire. But is the Empire evil, or do Raven and Jack not yet have the whole picture? And what of the song that so few people can hear, sung to them by an Uman-Chi girl barely 167 years old? If they can find the weapons mentioned in the song, can they win the day? Or, as the song says, are they doomed to fail? Indomitus Sum is the conclusion to Indomitus Oriens. Now you can finally learn the fate of those who have no faith, but who instead know the will of their gods.
