Book Description

A Junior Library Guild Selection March 2022 How do you create a new alphabet? In 15th-century Korea, King Sejong was distressed. The complicated Chinese characters used for reading and writing meant only rich, educated people could read—and that was just the way they wanted it. But King Sejong thought all Koreans should be able to read and write, so he worked in secret for years to create a new Korean alphabet. King Sejong's strong leadership and determination to bring equality to his country make his 600-year-old story as relevant as ever.

Book Description

In 1925 Harold Ross hired Katharine Sergeant Angell as a manuscript reader for The New Yorker. Within months she became the magazine’s first fiction editor, discovering and championing the work of Vladimir Nabokov, John Updike, James Thurber, Marianne Moore, and her husband-to-be, E. B. White, among others. After years of cultivating fiction, White set her sights on a new genre: garden writing. On March 1, 1958, The New Yorker ran a column entitled “Onward and Upward in the Garden,” a critical review of garden catalogs, in which White extolled the writings of “seedmen and nurserymen,” those unsung authors who produced her “favorite reading matter.” Thirteen more columns followed, exploring the history and literature of gardens, flower arranging, herbalists, and developments in gardening. Two years after her death in 1977, E. B. White collected and published the series, with a fond introduction. The result is this sharp-eyed appreciation of the green world of growing things, of the aesthetic pleasures of gardens and garden writing, and of the dreams that gardens inspire.

Book Description

Enchanting, tragic, and hilarious fairy tales for adults and children grace these pages. An initial glance might lead you to assume that these are satirical versions of classic Christmas ghost stories. However, beneath the humorous stories involving ghosts, repentant sinners, miracles, and good peasants who find well-deserved happiness, lies a psychological undercurrent that sharpens the sense of intrigue and plot movement. Often this is aided by the unrelenting social exposure of the authors who always understood how intangible the “bourgeois paradise” truly was. Even today, idyllic dreams of tolerance, equality, and the triumph of justice have failed to materialize. Perhaps that is why people continue to read these classic stories while the snow falls outside and the lights glow on the Christmas tree. Contents: Charles Dickens - A Christmas Carol; Gilbert Keith Chesterton - A Christmas Carol; Lucy Maud Montgomery - A Christmas Inspiration, A Christmas Mistake, Christmas at Red Butte; Lyman Frank Baum - A Kidnapped Santa Claus; Mark Twain - A Letter from Santa Claus; Louisa May Alcott - A Merry Christmas; Leo Tolstoy - A Russian Christmas Party; Henry Wadsworth Longfellow - Christmas Bells; Nikolai Gogol - Christmas Eve; William Dean Howells - Christmas Everyday; Joseph Rudyard Kipling - Christmas in India; Lyman Frank Baum - Little Bun Rabbit; Elizabeth Harrison - Little Gretchen and the Wooden Shoe; John Milton - On the Morning of Christ’s Nativity; Charles Dickens - The Chimes; Hans Christian Andersen - The Fir Tree; Selma Lagerlöf - The Holy Night; Hans Christian Andersen - The Little Match Girl; Clement Moore - The Night Before Christmas; Henry van Dyke - The Other Wise Man; William Dean Howells - The Pony Engine and the Pacific Express; Beatrix Potter - The Tailor of Gloucester; Henry Wadsworth Longfellow - The Three Kings; Anton Chehov - Vanka.
