Book Description
Saville hates sewing. How can she not when her father, the Tailor, loves his bolts of velvet and silk far more than he's ever loved her? Yet, when he is struck ill shortly after they arrive in the city of Reggen, Saville must don boy's clothes in the hopes of gaining a commission from the king to keep them fed. The kingdom is soon on edge when stories spread of an army of giants led by a man who cannot be killed. But giants are just stories, and no man is immortal. And then the giants do come to the city gates, two larger-than-life scouts whom Saville cunningly tricks into leaving. The Tailor of Reggen is the hero of the kingdom, the king promises his sister's hand in marriage, and by the time Saville reaches the palace doors, it is widely known that the Tailor single-handedly killed the giants. When her secret—that she's a girl—is quickly discovered by Lord Galen Verras, the king's cousin, Saville's swept into the twists and turns of court politics. The deathless man is very real, and he will use his giant army to ensure he is given the throne freely or by force. Now, only a tailor girl with courage and cunning can see beyond the tales to discover the truth and save the kingdom again. Debut author Sarah McGuire artfully crafts a story of understanding, identity, and fighting to protect those you love most in Valiant, a rich reimagining of "The Brave Little Tailor."

Pages : 128
Book Description
John Stanford was born in 1929 on Inungi, his father's farm in East Griqualand. After qualifying as a civil engineer and working for a short time in Canada, he returned to Inungi to work alongside his father. In 1965 he took over the running of the farm. Cut off from the rest of the Kokstad district by the Umzimvubu River, Inungi was mountainous and remote. Horses were indispensible as transport, fire and flood were ever-present hazards, living was exhilarating but tough for both farmer and farmworkers. This memoir spans John's life from his childhood years until 1984 when the farm was expropriated for inclusion in Transkei. In his factual and vigorous style, it tells of the risks, disasters, joys and satisfactions of a self-sustaining way of life.

Book Description
The poems in this book vary in subject. Some recount the diffi cult and dangerous experiences during their escape through Poland into Russia, where he met and married my mother, Rose. Many describe the terrible tragedies that transpired during the horrible holocaust, in which his two sisters and brother were brutally murdered by the Nazi regime. There are several poems which talk about nature, science, space and the All-Mighty. Here the poet wrestles between different ideas, to decide who is behind the creation and why was there a Holocaust, but a real answer is not available. A number of his poems talk about his friends and memorable fi gures from his past and history. Other poems depict the hardships of old age, in all its forms, and the preciousness of youth, which is lost and so envied. Yes, Borys is also a romantic, because there are some nice poems which any young lady would have been pleased to receive. A sad and special poem, A Pink Slip, describes how my mothers breath of life was cruelly swept away by the establishment. BookFinder.com
