The Tale of Rainbow’S End
Author: Margaret Evans
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1469133040
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 57
Book Description
This story is a childrens fantasy that originally came from a dream. It begins with a bedroom scene where Lucy awakens surrounded by a strange eerie light. She is whisked into the fantasy world in order to assist in a special task of making rainbows. The Rainbow maker is Soup, a strange little man who is dressed as an artist with oddly coloured hair, skin and clothes. He persuades Lucy that he needs her especially as his transport is the beautiful horse Joe - that once belonged to her. There are references here of Lucys tragic loss and the acknowledgment to the young reader of their own fears of losing loved ones. Throughout the journey, the friends experience a variety of problems but also wonderful times where magical things assist them. Although this story is a fantasy I believe it would appeal to readers age 6/7 to 12 years as the language is fairly advanced. It would also appeal to younger children if read by an adult. The full-page ink illustrations and a variety of smaller symbolic drawings are included throughout the text.

Next Year In Jerusalem

Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
"All that time, life kept putting its face around the door, but never came into the room." When Angel learnt her days were numbered, she viewed a frosted landscape that chilled more than blood and bone. To tell Jude would put a false complexion on their life together. Immersed in the precarious expansion of his business, he little suspected the true cause of her failing health and changed outlook. Events were only too ready to conspire in her silence. The dilemma swiftly wove its web of misunderstanding which prompted Jude's infidelity and Angel's poignant rapport with 'the bookseller of Glenfinnie', reaching a crisis where Jude's own life was imperilled. She was to make an inner journey of discovery, seeing in her condition some analogy with the global unrest of our times. This is a story which prompts haunting reflection on the mystical nature of human 'presence'. Were Life and Death two sides of the same coin?
