Book Description
Hello, my name is Peter Carlock. City Stories were born over twenty years ago when I started making them up as bedtime stories for my niece, Selina. Since then, City has had countless stories and adventures. He has met a vast number of characters and has entertained my oldest, Josh, now twelve; Eli, now seven; and continues to entertain Maya, now three. It is my hope that City and his friends Josh and Cleo will continue to entertain children of all ages at bedtime for a long time to come. I hope they will find City and his friends funny, educational, and just simply put a smile on their face. Wouldnt be nice if we all could look at our world with the awe and wonder as we once did as children? Maybe, just maybe, through Citys eyes, we can, even if just for a bit. Thank you. Sweet dreams. It was a really good day.

Alf the Bear
Author: Simon J Stephens
Publisher: Troubador Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 1789013461
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
Alf the Bear is a timely retelling of the story of the Prodigal Son, written as a tale to be read by adults to children of all ages. Poignant, humorous, incisive and exciting, with simple illustrations designed to be copied or coloured in, this little book brings the timeless message of a classic parable to life in a novel and interesting way as unchanging themes are introduced in very modern ways. Alf is impatient to receive his inheritance and leave his home town for the bright lights of the big city. Having pestered his father to give in to his wishes, Alf sets off on his adventures, using his money to make a name for himself and become the celebrity he has always wanted to be. That is, until the money runs out and Alf’s star fades rapidly away. Alone, rejected and hungry, he thinks of all that he left behind at home and resolves to return there, where a surprise welcome awaits him. Whilst the Prodigal Son remains rooted in Christian teaching, those of other or no faith will enjoy this tale as much as anyone else. For Christian parents or carers, Alf’s story provides an accessible route into the lessons that Jesus’s parable teaches us about numerous topics, not least of which is the underlying message of God, our Father’s, Love for us all.

Languages : en
Pages : 490
Book Description
Here is a serious discussion of an emerging gay subculture! Take another fascinating journey into the bear's den with the latest offering from Les Wright, author of The Bear Book. The Bear Book II will show you the contrast between the media image of the fun-loving, carefree bear man and the health, image, psychological, technological, and sexual concerns of bears living in the real world. A continuation of The Bear Book (1997), this study of typically big, hairy, and bearded gay men explores bears on a societal and personal level, giving a wide voice to bears of all ages, nationalities, and cultures. Among the topics The Bear Book II: Further Readings in the History and Evolution of a Gay Male Subculture discusses are: health concerns of bears bear body images self-esteem issues for bears physical and psychological bear attributes as portrayed in the media versus actual individual accounts social and sexual institutions in the bear community the role of the Internet in creating a global bear subculture The Bear Book II will help you to understand the life of a bear. This unique book, the only serious exploration of this topic, offers documentation of a subculture in the making, complete with subjective and analytical perspectives that support this example of postmodern cultural anthropology.
