Beschreibung

In "Stories for Children," Leo Tolstoy presents a collection of moral tales that seamlessly blend simplicity with profound philosophical insights. Written in a clear and accessible literary style, these stories convey essential life lessons, emphasizing virtues such as kindness, humility, and honesty. The collection reflects Tolstoy's belief in the transformative power of storytelling, set against the backdrop of late 19th-century Russia, where he sought to address social issues and moral dilemmas through narratives that resonate across ages. Tolstoy, a towering figure in world literature, was not only a master of the novel but also deeply concerned with morality and the well-being of humanity. His own experiences and struggles with faith, societal expectations, and the quest for personal authenticity profoundly influenced his writing. This collection is rooted in his own paradoxes'Äîa nobleman questioning the values of his class'Äîand aims to impart wisdom to the youngest readers while nurturing their moral compass. "Stories for Children" is a must-read for parents, educators, and young readers alike. It invites children into a world of imagination while instilling timeless virtues. Tolstoy's masterful storytelling will captivate young minds and foster thoughtful discussions on ethics and humanity.

Miracle - A Journey Through Time...

Ray Cummings

Miracle by Ray Cummings - A summons from yesterday, a promise from tomorrow–they had commanded Alan Dane to tear apart the pages of history–to save his unborn son!
"But how can you possibly know that time traveling has never been done?" the chemist protested. "Someone from our future may have gone into the past many times."
"I should think they'd have created quite a commotion," the lawyer observed. "Wouldn't we have heard of it from our historical records?"
"Of course." The chemist was smiling now. "We probably have. History tells of many important occasions on which a 'vision' appeared. A miraculous presence, such as Joan of Arc, for instance, or the Angel of Mons."
"Or the appearance of the Sun God to the Aztecs. I get your point," one of the other men interjected. "You think that there might have been a time traveler who materialized just long enough to take a look—and the superstitious natives took him for a god. Why not? That's probably just what would happen."
Young Alan Dane sat in a corner of his grandfather's laboratory, listening to the argument of the group of men. He was well over six feet in height, a sun-bronzed, crisply blond young Viking. Beside him sat Ruth Vincent, his fiancée, a slim girl of twenty. Alan's heart was pounding. Somehow it seemed as though this bantering talk of time traveling were something momentous to him, something requiring a great and irrevocable decision.
Then abruptly old Professor Dane held up his hand and, quite casually, said, "What you do not know, gentlemen, is that for half my life I have been working to discover the secret of time travel."
His audience was suddenly tense. Professor Dane was loved and respected by each of them, and his word in his chosen field of physics was final. If he said a thing could be done there was no mistake.
