Book 1 - Jack the Bad Crow Due to an unfortunate accident, a crow mother and her young son, Jack, find themselves living in a barn on a family farm. Jack is less than thrilled with their new living arrangements. He doesn't hit it off with any of the farm animals and quickly earns the reputation of being a "bad crow." Jack's mother encourages him to befriend a rabbit named Johnny and a squirrel named Alex. The three boys have many exciting adventures together. Their friendship grows until a Christmas Eve party where things go terribly wrong. Jack is left with a choice: will he embrace his good side or truly become Jack the Bad Crow? Book 2 - Jack the Bad Crow Strikes Again After Johnny and Alex stopped Jack the Bad Crow from ruining Christmas, life on the farm returned to normal . . . for a while. Unfortunately, those carefree days are brought to an end when a neighbor shares the news that Jack plans to strike the farm again. But this time, Jack is bringing his entire gang of crows with him! Will Johnny, Alex, and the other farm animals be able to stop Jack the Bad Crow again? Book 3 - Jack the Bad Crow Returns After a devastating loss, Jack decides to not return to the cornfields. He finds a new home and meets an unexpected friend—a crow named Margot. As the year passes, numerous changes come to the farm. Some changes are welcomed, while others are not.

Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
Reality, what a concept. Is life a puppet show and are we nothing but puppets? A hidden world all about us, angels and demons, or is what we can touch and sense all there is? And now, the Simulation Hypothesis plagues us. Could we really be living in a computer simulation? Through the ages, the conundrum of Reality has messed with the collective consciousness of humanity. The Allegory of Plato's Cave down through the ages to The Matrix. A chance meeting in the park leads two strangers to discover strange connections between themselves and the world, and in truth both had felt that perhaps there was something not quite right with the world, something different. They have both noticed improbable coincidences popping up in their lives, at an almost alarming regularity, and now, meeting, they witness strange signs in the heavens, and find themselves on a bizarre path that will make them question their very reality, and the reality of the world about them, and the universe itself.

Breaking the Magic Spell
Author: Jack Zipes
Publisher: University Press of Kentucky
ISBN: 0813170303
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
This revised, expanded, and updated edition of the 1979 landmark Breaking the Magic Spell examines the enduring power of fairy tales and the ways they invade our subjective world. In seven provocative essays, Zipes discusses the importance of investigating oral folk tales in their socio-political context and traces their evolution into literary fairy tales, a metamorphosis that often diminished the ideology of the original narrative. Zipes also looks at how folk tales influence our popular beliefs and the ways they have been exploited by a corporate media network intent on regulating the mystical elements of the stories. He examines a range of authors, including the Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Anderson, Ernst Bloch, Tolkien, Bettelheim, and J.K. Rowling to demonstrate the continuing symbiotic relationship between folklore and literature.
