Sinossi

The door flew open, and Granny stared out at Cat with wild eyes.

'So,' she said, almost in a whisper, 'they're back.'

 

For the first time in over fifty years, the Trooping Fairies are in the small town of Clonbridge for their annual Revels. Their arrival awakens other creatures, who have mischief and chaos in mind.

Eleven-year-old Cat is in more danger than most. She has the Sight, like her Granny before her, and that makes her a magnet for all things supernatural. But when the wild magic hurts her family, she needs to find a friend she can really trust. Together they face real danger and must use all their wits and bravery to save those they love, before the sun rises …

    Nuts! Our Backyard, a True Story, mostly is a 20,000-word, 14-chapter story with 25 illustrations and 10 songs based on our rescue dog from the Bronx bringing a baby squirrel into the house on March 15, 2020 (the beginning of the pandemic). 
               Story line -- Little Bear is knighted by some strange, magical dog catchers in the Bronx in recognition of his destiny to help awaken the Humans and heal the Earth. Sir Little Bear then teams up with all the Critters and Birds in Our Backyard in Connecticut to get Rocky, aka The Rock, the Baby Squirrel into a Human house. Through Georgia’s postings of Rocky’s cute antics on social media, he becomes widely known and loved.

    A.A. Milne's first collection of stories about his son's endearing and not-very-bright toy bear and his friends, "Winnie-the-Pooh" is the original source material for one of children's literature's most enduring and beloved characters. Edward Bear (also known as Winnie) is the simple, easy-going companion to young Christopher Robin. He and his friends (Christopher Robin's other stuffed animals - Eeyore the Donkey, Piglet, Rabbit, Owl, Kanga and Baby Roo) are the inhabitants of the imaginary Hundred Acre Wood. We follow Pooh Bear as he tries to extract honey from a beehive, overstays his welcome at Rabbit's house, attempts to find Eeyore's missing tail and hunts for the elusive Heffalump.Sweet-natured, full of sly humor and enhanced with illustrations by the original artist, E.H. Shepard, "Winnie-the-Pooh" has remained a classic of children's literature for decades and the characters have been immortalized in countless screen and television adaptations.The stories are presented here in their original and unabridged form.

Sandy went to the Mountain of Flowers and Fruit to ask Monkey King for the luggage, but was surprised to hear the monkey vow to go west to get the sutras himself. Sandy went to Guanyin for help and found the real Monkey King there with her. The imposter Monkey King looked identicaland had the same skills. No one could tell the difference between the two. It took the Buddha to identify the imposter monkey, who had been transformed by a six-eared macaque. The monkey returned to Xuanzang, and the team continued their journey westward.
