Book Description
In the year 2000, future Bram Stoker Award-winning author Jeff Strand published one of his earliest novels, How to Rescue a Dead Princess. Readership was extremely small...actually, let's go with "intimate." It was an incredibly goofy fantasy comedy, the work of an author who didn't yet have a speck of silver in his hair, much less the gray onslaught that's going on now. The book disappeared for many years. People pleaded with Mr. Strand to reissue it. "It's not my best work!" he snarled. "There are lots of other books in the world-read those!" But now, on its 24th anniversary, Mr. Strand has succumbed to peer pressure and brought it back! It's the saga of Randall, a squire assigned to escort the lovely Princess Dolores on a diplomatic journey of utmost importance. Then she gets killed. Now Randall must overcome desperate odds and ridiculous dangers in his quest to bring her back to life...before the entire Generic Fantasy Land falls into the evil clutches of The Dark One! How to Rescue a Dead Princess. The greatest comedic fantasy novel of all time? An immature work that tries too hard? YOU decide.

Book Description
From USA Today Bestselling author KL Donn comes an all new menage romance stepping into the world of magic and fantasy in a sexy fairytale retelling. Once upon a time… Isn't that how love stories begin? Not this time. This is not a love story. This is the untold story of Sleeping Beauty and how Princess Arianna of Graeline was conceived out of darkness and lies. Born into a kingdom on the brink of disaster, she remains hidden away from the world as protection against a vengeful curse. A love curse. Malevolence has invaded the land of mystery, and the dark mage has decided it’s time to collect on her favor. The price… The princess. Until the king calls for a savior. Or two? Asher “Apollo” McCall and Matthew “Ares” Norbury have worked countless missions together. Named after the Greek gods they resembled, they were considered the biggest and baddest until tragedy struck. Their team was slaughtered, and they were left for dead. Neither man ever foresaw a life of peace, but gazing into the eyes of the young, defiant princess for the first time, they catch a glimpse of what could become their world. How far will they go to make the enigmatic royal theirs? Kidnapping. Torture. Imprisonment. Can these two "princes" beat the odds, save the princess, and live happily ever after? Or is Arianna destined to die, imprisoned by a curse out of control?

Book Description
While firmly acknowledging the importance of play in early childhood, this book interrogates the assumption that play is a birthright. It pushes beyond traditional understandings of play to ask questions such as: what is the relationship between play and the arts – theatre, music and philosophy – and between play and wellbeing? How is play relevant to educational practice in the rapidly changing circumstances of today’s world? What do Australian Aboriginal conceptions of play have to offer understandings of play? The book examines how ideas of play evolve as children increasingly interact with popular culture and technology, and how developing notions of play have changed our work spaces, teaching practices, curricula, and learning environments, as well as our understanding of relationships between children and adults. This multidisciplinary volume on the subject of play combines the work of some of the world’s leading researchers in the field of early childhood education with contributions from distinguished and emerging scholars in areas as diverse as education, theatre studies, architecture, literature, philosophy, cultural studies, theology and the creative arts. Reconsidering the common focus on play in early education, to investigate its broader impact, this collection offers a refreshing and valuable addition to studies on play, reconceptualizing it for the 21st century.

Book Description
With a father who is chief of a village of almost two hundred Aleut people, Anna Hasson grows up a real Aleut princess. But everything changes when she turns fourteen. A year after Anna is kidnapped outside her seaside home and thrust into the white mans world, World War II begins and the Aleut race falls just short of complete annihilation through genocide. Years later in the early 1950s and living in Juneau Alaska a disheveled Anna is rescued from a small tenement room and taken to the hospital. At one time, Anna had been stunningly beautiful, but now, she is disheveled and filled with shame and secrets she does not want anyone to know. The only way she knows to numb the pain is to drink herself into oblivion. Now with death seemingly imminent, Annas path crosses with that of a kindly nun who must rely on her faith and Gods grace to guide Anna back in time to where the truth hopefully waits. But will Anna be able to attain the inner-peace she so desperately needs before it is too late? In this historical novel, an Aleut woman lost in the world of alcoholism must rely on help from a devoted nun to rediscover her love for her people, her culture, and most importantly, herself.

Sarah Henning has created a fantasy narrative that weaves together love and betrayal, pirates and swordplay. Sure to please anyone who grew up loving tales of princesses.”—Emily Lloyd-Jones, author of The Bone Houses “Full of inconceivable wit, daring adventure, and cunning political machinations...It’s as if Sarah Henning looked into my soul that yearned for a book like The Princess Bride and said—as you wish. And yes, this is a kissing book.”—Ashley Poston, author of Heart of Iron “A breakneck fantasy adventure.... Swoony romance, sword fights, a great cast of characters and some clever parallels to a story about another princess who won’t be made a bride makes The Princess Will Save You a strong contender for my favorite novel of the year.”—Emily Hall Schroen, Main Street Books, St. Charles, Missouri At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
