Sinopse

In "Little Sunbeam," Eleanora H. Stooke offers a poignant exploration of childhood innocence juxtaposed with the pervasive shadows of societal expectation. This eloquently crafted narrative unfolds through a blend of lyrical prose and vivid imagery, painting a rich tapestry of a young girl's experiences in a world that is both enchanting and daunting. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century America, Stooke meticulously captures the nuances of family dynamics, societal pressures, and the fleeting nature of joy, all while maintaining a tone that oscillates between nostalgia and a subtle critique of contemporary mores. Eleanora H. Stooke, a dedicated educator and ardent advocate for children's literature, has infused her own insights and experiences into this work. Growing up in a time when children's voices were often muted, her literary journey has aimed to amplify the perspectives of the young. Stooke's passion for fostering creativity in children is mirrored in her characters, making "Little Sunbeam" not just a story, but a reflection of her belief in the inherent value of childhood dreams and aspirations. I highly recommend "Little Sunbeam" to those seeking a thoughtful and evocative read that delights both the heart and mind. Perfect for educators, parents, and anyone who cherishes the unadulterated joy of youth, this book serves as a gentle reminder of the resilience of hope and the beauty that can emerge even in the face of adversity.

    In this spinoff to the New York Times–bestselling Goosebumps series, two siblings rescue their uncle when he mysteriously turns into a Jack-in-the-box. 
     
    Devin and his sister Violet are visiting their Uncle Jack for the summer. He lives in an old house by the seashore. Jack was a sailor and he has collected strange and fascinating items from the sea. Exploring a back room, Devin and Violet discover a locked trunk. A pirate’s chest. The trunk is wrapped in old, heavy chains and locked with a huge rusted lock. But they manage to get it open. They lift the lid slowly-and see that it’s filled with antique jack-in-the-boxes. Huh? One box is hidden under the others, covered in dust. It plays an odd unpleasant song. Up pops a very ugly, mean-looking puppet, an old pirate with a dirty red bandana over his long greasy hair, scars on his cheeks, and a beard, and one eye missing. “Thanks for letting Sailor Jack out!” he rasps, bouncing on his spring. Devin and Violet have a troubling question: Now that their uncle has been turned into a toy, how will they get him back?
