To cope with this, Nova writes a tale about a Gamer named Lydia and a beautiful servant from the 18th century known as Avryll...Avryll who likes her normal life.

Originally from France, Avryll takes the stage with her adventures and romantic interests in this first volume of the Princesses of Earth Series, but Lydia and Nova are quick to follow suit in this new universe fantasy that is intertwined with mystery.

Spinning the Child
Author: Liam Maloy
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351334093
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 269
Book Description
Spinning the Child examines music for children on records, radio and television by assessing how ideals of entertainment, education, βthe childβ and βthe familyβ have been communicated through folk music, the BBCβs childrenβs radio broadcasting, the childrenβs songs of Woody Guthrie, Sesame Street, The Muppet Show and Bagpuss, the contemporary childrenβs music industry and other case studies. The book provides the first sustained critical overview of recorded music for children, its production and dissemination. The music, lyrics and sonics of hundreds of recorded songs are analysed with reference to their specific social, historical and technological contexts. The chapters expose the attitudes, morals and desires that adults have communicated both to and about the child through the music that has been created and compiled for children. The musical representations of age, race, class and gender reveal how recordings have both reflected and shaped transformations in discourses of childhood. This book is recommended for scholars in the sociology of childhood, the sociology of music, ethnomusicology, music education, popular musicology, childrenβs media and related fields. Spinning the Childβs emphasis on the analysis of musical, lyrical and sonic texts in specific contexts suggests its value as both a teaching and research resource.
