Book Description
This composite book contains three wonderful pieces of work by famous writers - Black Beauty by Anna Sewell, Smoky the Cowhorse by Will James and The Pacing Mustang by Ernest Thompson Seton. Love to animals, to horses in particular, unites these stories. The first book became a world bestseller. It was purchased by more than 50 million readers. In Smoky the Cowhorse an old cowboy tells about hard life of a real cowboy horse in the wide expanse of the prairie. In The Pacing Mustang, the wild black Pacing Mustang couldn’t be caught by any cowboy. Only a greedy cook was able to cunningly entrap the fast horse. In the end, even the cook was left behind by the horse’s tremendous speed.

Book Description
Musaicum Books presents the Musaicum Christmas Specials. We have selected the greatest Christmas novels, short stories and fairy tales for all those who want to keep the spirit of Christmas alive with a heartwarming tale. The story is narrated in the first person as an autobiographical memoir told by the titular horse named Black Beauty—beginning with his carefree days as a colt on an English farm with his mother, to his difficult life pulling cabs in London, to his happy retirement in the country. Along the way, he meets with many hardships and recounts many tales of cruelty and kindness. Each chapter recounts an incident in Black Beauty's life containing a lesson or moral typically related to the kindness, sympathy, and understanding treatment of horses, with Sewell's detailed observations and extensive descriptions of horse behaviour lending the novel a good deal of verisimilitude. While forthrightly teaching animal welfare, it also teaches how to treat people with kindness, sympathy, and respect.

Book Description
The first novel in the Poseidon's Children series from the acclaimed author of the Revelation Space series. One hundred and fifty years from now, Africa has become the world’s dominant technological and economic power. Crime, war, disease and poverty have been practically eliminated. The Moon and Mars are settled, and colonies stretch all the way out to the edge of the solar system. And Ocular, the largest scientific instrument in history, is about to make an epochal discovery... Geoffrey Akinya wants only one thing: to be left in peace, so that he can continue his long-running studies into the elephants of the Amboseli basin. But Geoffrey’s family, which controls the vast Akinya business empire, has other plans for him. After the death of his grandmother Eunice—the erstwhile space explorer and entrepreneur—something awkward has come to light on the Moon, so Geoffrey is dispatched there to ensure the family name remains untarnished. But the secrets Eunice died with are about to be revealed—secrets that could change everything...or tear this near utopia apart.

Book Description
As the summer of 1999 draws to a close, Charlotte and Henry are coming to terms with a week-long Tower Room adventure that had cast them back sixty years, to a Toronto poised on the brink of war, ostensibly to resolve the childhood trauma of Gwendolyn MacFarlane. Except nothing was resolved, only witnessed. In fact, before returning to their own time, Charlotte herself took part in the very events that would shape, in some small way, the flawed woman Gwendolyn grew up to be. Now the two friends are unexpectedly offered the opportunity to embark on a second trip – this one physical rather than temporal – accompanying Gwendolyn to London, England, where she will reconnect with Sarah, a former tutor and actress, who left Toronto with Gwendolyn’s older brother Charlie when he went overseas to join the RAF. There Gwendolyn will have the long-severed threads of her unhappy childhood within reach and be confronted with difficult truths about herself and the life she has lived. The question is whether she will recognize resolution for what it is and be able to stitch the torn aspects of her life back together again.

Book Description
Byron Zorn graduated first in his class at the prestigious Little Country Parish University. A brilliant mind, tireless researcher, and gifted speaker, Zorn aspired to serve God behind the pulpit of a large, hopefully high profile church someday. That was plan A. Then The Lord revealed plan B--assistant bishop of Holy Ground Miracle Gospel Tabernacle, a small black church in the all black South Park District. Though the position was non-salaried, and the flock had a way of making the job full time, Byron Zorn, a white man, accepted. The Bishop of South Park is the story of a young white preacher's journey into an unfamiliar culture of black gospel distinctives and expectations. Byron Zorn understood perfectly the way the whites did church. He had yet to come to terms with the black way of doing it. "Bishop, you preach like a white man." "I am a white man!" "Yeah, and ain't nobody holding it against you, neither. But Bishop, you could do better." The Bishop of South Park is a humorous and heart rending love story of sacrifice and courage within the volatile waters of interracial relationships.
