Far below the waves a little fish called Stanley lived with the rest of his shoal. They were the brightest, sparkliest fish in the whole of the deep, dark sea. One morning Stanley woke up rather late. "Coo-ee! It's me-ee!" he called to his friends as usual. But the reef was strangely quiet!

BETWEEN THE ACTS
Author: Virginia Woolf
Publisher: e-artnow
ISBN: 8027235219
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 141
Book Description
Between the Acts is the final novel by Virginia Woolf, published in 1941 shortly after her suicide. This is a book laden with hidden meaning and allusion. It describes the mounting, performance, and audience of a festival play (hence the title) in a small English village just before the outbreak of the Second World War. Much of it looks forward to the war, with veiled allusions to connection with the continent by flight, swallows representing aircraft, and plunging into darkness. The pageant is a play within a play, representing a rather cynical view of English history. Woolf links together many different threads and ideas - a particularly interesting technique being the use of rhyme words to suggest hidden meanings. Relationships between the characters and aspects of their personalities are explored. The English village bonds throughout the play through their differences and similarities. Adeline Virginia Woolf (1882–1941) was an English writer who is considered one of the foremost modernists of the twentieth century and a pioneer in the use of stream of consciousness as a narrative device.

Book Description
Welcome to "Color Me Canine (Hound Group)"! If you like coloring realistic drawings with just a bit of extra, I promise you will have fun with this book. If you are looking for your next canine buddy or you just like oohing and aahing over all the cool dogs, this book is for you as well. Some of what you will find inside: - All the coloring pages are done by me, a Maxwell award-winning artist. - There's honest info about Hounds in general. Did you know that usually, your hound sees you as a good friend, rather than his master? You are a lovely part of their day, but they are not going to do what you say just because you say it. Does that sound like the right type of dog for you? - Two-page breed descriptions of each breed including a crowdsourced "In Three Words". The plan is to have seven coloring books, one for each American Kennel Club Group. Done so far (as of 2021) are Toy Dogs and Herding Breeds. This is Volume 3. Still have a way to go! I better get busy.
