Book Description
Chantel, Adam, Holly and Owen must help Equus, the great white horse, find his mate and foal and regain his magical talisman. But as the horse rises, so does the dragon. The age-old battle between good and evil threatens the bond between Chantel and Adam and endangers the quest. This is fantasy as its best, a story that raises hairs on the back of the neck and sends satisfying chills up and down the spine, a story that, while clearly drawn from the rich world of make believe, feels truer than true.

Book Description
"Talisman is a book about a book: It's the book that's never there when you wake up, no matter how hard you try to take it with you. The book you steal when you're too young to understand it's not the only copy in the world. Talisman is about hunger and magic, and the power of stories made solid."--Back cover.

Book Description
The term 'power animal' was introduced into contemporary language in 1980 by anthropologist Michael Harner, in his classic work The Way of the Shaman, and refers to a broad-based animistic and shamanic concept where the animal is conceived as a tutelary spirit guide that helps or protects individuals, lineages and nations. Horses and humans became companions a long time ago, and the horse adopted as a power or totem animal represents power, speed, courage, nobility, freedom and chthonic energy.

Book Description
Do you want to adapt your poem to a storybook that tells a story in words, and pictures-or only amplify the images that you create with words? Would you rather turn your poem into a picture book that tells a story with pictures? Will words take second place to illustrations? Decide first whether you will write a story book or a picture book. Then use the images in your poem to clarify your writing. You won't be able to read a picture book into a tape recorder or turn it into an audio book or radio play. You will be able to narrate a word book for audio playing. Start with an inspirational poem, proverb, or song lyrics. Ask children what makes them laugh. You can make something out of nothing. You can make a story out of anything intangible, such as an idea with a plan still in your mind. Capture your children's dreams, proverbs, song lyrics, and the surprise elements that make them laugh. Record imagination, "what-if" talk, and personal history. A folktale or story is something that could come from any place in the past, from science, or from nothing that you can put your hands on. What children want in a book, poem, or folklore is a cave where they can go to be themselves. When suspending belief, children still want to be themselves as they navigate fantasy. The story book becomes a den or tree house where children can go inside, shut the door, and play. Introduce children to poetry by showing how you transform your poem into a children's book by expanding and emphasizing significant events in the life story of one child. Poems, memorable experiences, significant life events or turning points are all ways to make something out of nothing tangible. You begin re-working a concept, framework, or vision. Here's how to write, publish, and promote salable material from concept to framework to poem to children's book-step-by-step.

Book Description
“Vivid,—White Horse—mesmerizes from page one as events unfold through the unassuming lenses of a child’s mind. In recounting how young n n is trying to make sense of real life experiences in an adult world, Author Yan Ge weaves a fascinating tale of receptive hearts, rebellious spirits and hidden secrets infused with cultural values in this small Chinese community.” Lema Abeng-Nsah, Publisher and Editorial Director of—Dunia Magazine—Young, innocent n n lives with her widower father in a small town in West China but spends half of her time at her cousin Zhang Qing's house, where they play and hide from the adults. However, n n's world starts to shatter when Quing enters middle school and turns into a rebellious teenager. As all things collide and family secrets begin to unravel, n n is quietly forced into growing up herself. A powerful coming-of-age tale with piercing insights into contemporary Chinese culture, acclaimed novelist Yan Ge's—White Horse—is both a touching and thought-provoking story. REVIEWS:Yan Ge is a master of extreme realism. This is something already recognised in her native country - China - where she has won the Chinese Literature Media Prize. Nicky Harman’s translation has opened up the text for an English speaking audience. Overall White Horse is a typical example of a bildungsroman. It follows n n, via her childish voice, through a quagmire of growing pains. On another level the book is also interesting as a cultural document. For such a short book, Ge certainly manages to take on a wide range of themes. She looks at death, lack of identity, young lesbian experiences, mental illness and social welfare. The novella is a good read as a social study as much as it is a story. (CADAVERINE Magazine)

Featuring personal insights from some of the world’s foremost equestrian writers, including Anna Sewell, Nicholas Evans, Cormac McCarthy, and others, it will surely pull the heartstrings of serious jockeys and casual riders alike.
