The Quiche of Death (1992) is the first Agatha Raisin mystery novel by Marion Chesney under her pseudonym M. C. Beaton.

It was the match-up of the century: four sleuths--Superintendent Battle of Scotland Yard; Mrs. Ariadne Oliver, famed writer of detective stories; Col. Race of His Majesty's Secret Service; and the incomparable Hercule Poirot - invited to play bridge with four specially invited guests, each of whom had gotten away with murder! But before the first rubber was completed, the host was dead.

Mrs. Frisby, a widowed mouse with four small children, must move her family to their summer quarters immediately, or face almost certain death. But her youngest son, Timothy, lies ill with pneumonia and must not be moved. Fortunately, she encounters the rats of NIMH, an extraordinary breed of highly intelligent creatures, who come up with a brilliant solution to her dilemma.

Oscar Wilde's madcap farce about mistaken identities, secret engagements, and lovers entanglements still delights readers more than a century after its 1895 publication and premiere performance. The rapid-fire wit and eccentric characters of The Importance of Being Earnest have made it a mainstay of the high school curriculum for decades.Cecily Cardew and Gwendolen Fairfax are both in love with the same mythical suitor. Jack Worthing has wooed Gwendolen as Ernest while Algernon has also posed as Ernest to win the heart of Jack's ward, Cecily. When all four arrive at Jack's country home on the same weekend the "rivals" to fight for Ernest's undivided attention and the "Ernests" to claim their beloveds pandemonium breaks loose. Only a senile nursemaid and an old, discarded hand-bag can save the day!This Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Edition includes a glossary and reader's notes to help the modern reader appreciate Wilde's wry wit and elaborate plot twists.

This is a story about determination and believing in oneself. The main character is a small bumblebee. He read that he couldn’t fly and was filled with disbelief in himself. He remains determined and keeps trying to prove he can survive. The end of the book provides a wonderful message for children and can provide support when they may be faced with challenges. This book is a wonderful read aloud because of the literary element of rhyming and upbeat language. It also has bright illustrations that add to the amazing message. The illustrations are so colorful and fill each page, showing Buzzy's adventures as he learns he can fly, despite anyone who tells him differently.I would give this book a 5 star rating because of the message it delivers. There are many times when children may be facing obstacles, and this book could pull them through. It has an important message that if they believe in themselves, they can prove people wrong. It is easy to read and the artwork is very vibrant.

Many adults name this book as their favorite Little Golden Book. Generations of kids have interacted with lovable, furry old Grover as he begs the reader not to turn the page—for fear of a monster at the end of the book. “Oh, I am so embarrassed,” he says on the last page . . . for, of course, the monster is Grover himself! This all-time favorite is now available as a Big Little Golden Book—perfect for lap-time reading.

Bad weather is on the way and the autumn crops are still not gathered in! Quickly, all the mice of Brambly Hedge set to work to finish the harvesting before the rain begins. Primrose, Lord Woodmouse's daughter, meant to help, but somehow she daydreamed her way over the cornfield and into the Chestnut Woods, and before she knew it, she was lost. The sun went down, the wind rose and it began to rain. Primrose is all alone in the dark, and she is frightened.Will she ever find her way home again?

The mice of Brambly Hedge are in high spirits! Fair weather and blossoms along the hedgerow have coaxed the mice out of their snug tree-stump homes, and they're eager for sunny day adventures, with old friends and new.In Spring Story, Mr. Apple takes advantage of an idyllic spring day to plan a surprise birthday party for a cranky little mouse who fears he's been forgotten.These gentle, sweetly mischievous books will enchant anyone who's ever been charmed by the world of Beatrix Potter.

It was the middle of winter and very, very cold. The mice of Brambly Hedge forecasted snow. And they were right. In the morning they awoke to find their doors and windows hidden behind deep drifts. There hadn't been snow like this for years."There's enough for a Snow Ball!" cried the mice with glee, and they set to work in the time-honoured way to make an Ice Hall for the festivities.The little mice watched wide-eyed as all the preparations were made. Then at last everything was ready, and the Ball could begin...

It was such a hot summer. The sky was deep blue and the sun never faltered.All along Brambly Hedge, the mice did their best to keep cool. Poppy Eyebright sought refuge in the mossy shadows of the mill wheel; Dusty Dogwood took to walking by the banks of the cooling stream. Dusty and Poppy spent more and more time together, so no one was at all surprised when they announced their engagement.They decided on a very unusual setting for the wedding ceremony, but even they didn't realize just how unusual it would prove to be!

"For sheer storytelling delight and pure adventure, Treasure Island has never been surpassed. From the moment young Jim Hawkins first encounters the sinister Blind Pew at the Admiral Benbow Inn until the climactic battle for treasure on a tropic isle, the novel creates scenes and characters that have fired the imaginations of generations of readers. Written by a superb prose stylist, a master of both action and atmosphere, the story centers upon the conflict between good and evil - but in this case a particularly engaging form of evil. It is the villainy of that most ambiguous rogue Long John Silver that sets the tempo of this tale of treachery, greed, and daring. Designed to forever kindle a dream of high romance and distant horizons, Treasure Island is, in the words of G. K. Chesterton, 'the realization of an ideal, that which is promised in its provocative and beckoning map; a vision not only of white skeletons but also green palm trees and sapphire seas.' G. S. Fraser terms it 'an utterly original book' and goes on to write: 'There will always be a place for stories like Treasure Island that can keep boys and old men happy.'

He and Tinker Bell whisk them off to Never-land where they encounter the Red Indians, the Little Lost Boys, pirates and the dastardly Captain Hook.

Sweet! Here´s my newyear´s tradition continued, first book of the year is a Beatrix Potter. This time it´s the tale of grey squirrel Timmy Tiptoes, his wife Goody and and a little chipmunk. Here´s some background info:Beatrix Potter loved the countryside and she spent much of her Victorian childhood drawing and studying animals. Her passion for the natural world lay behind the creation of her famous series of little books. A particular source of inspiration was the English Lake District where she lived as a farmer and land conservationalist. In 1911 Potter was preparing The Tale of Timmy Tiptoes, which was aimed to appeal to her many American fans, featuring animals of American origin, squirrels, chipmunks and a black bear. Cute and gorgeous drawings. Lovely start of the year once again with Beatrix Potter!

My traditional start of the reading year with a Beatrix Potter tale. The tale of Mrs. Tittlemouse, obsessed with keeping her house clean while visitors disturb her tidy house 'and without any invitation' according Mrs. Tittlemouse, such as the rather intruding toad Mr. Jackson, in search of honey... leaving large wet footmarks on the parlour floor... Quite charming, cute, lovely drawings once again... 2019 has started! Mrs. Tittlemouse was a most terribly tidy particular little mouse, always sweeping and dusting the soft sandy floors...

I had always looked at this book with some trepidation, glaring back at me as it did so in its Tolstoyan enormity (it is over 100 pages long, a mammoth tome in the Beatrix Potter catalogue) from the bookshelf, but eventually I realised there was no denying the inevitability of my having to take it down and actually read it. Good job too, as it is rather good. Plot-wise it is a rather simple tale of a rather simple pig, who is sent to town for provisions for his aunts, but comes a-cropper when he meets up with a friendly, but not terribly trustworthy man. The ensuing sea journey for Robinson is one which he enjoys up to the point when the ship's cat lets him know that the trip is not likely to end well for him, and arranges for Robinson to escape. Literary references abound in this dramatic story (bong trees, owls, desert islands etc.) which only add to the enjoyment. So don't be put off by the size, just sit down and devote a good hour (including a tea-break) or so of your time to this classic.

Beatrix Potter is a much better storyteller when her tales are longer. She delves deeper in to the nature of animals-the darker side of their nature-and her stories are better for it.There are two more dangerous animals in this tale-a fox and a badger-and rather than being calm gentlemen who smoke pipes and natter, they are portrayed here almost true to form. They're rather vicious and vindictive if one takes their personified forms too literally. In truth, they are just the animals we know them as, albeit with the standard Beatrix waistcoat and walking cane.The illustrations are a little different here: we have the darling watercolours that bring so much life to the stories, and we also have black and white engravings that add another dimension: perhaps not so much to the story but to the Beatrix Potter Legend overall.Peter Rabbit also makes an appearance here, and I much prefer him as an adult than as a rather tiresome little bunny. Like all of her stories there are darker natural elements to all of them, and most include some form of eating, whether it be Mr McGregor putting rabbits in pies or Badgers putting rabbits in pies; whatever the case may be, we all know that pies are the best. Long live pies.

Do you ever feel that the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence? Well, so did Johnny Town-Mouse and Timmy Willie. One was a town mouse and one was a country mouse, and when they end up in each other's worlds they soon discover that they were much happier where they started!The Tale of Johnny Town-Mouse is number 13 in Beatrix Potter's series of 23 little books, the titles of which are as follows:1 The Tale of Peter Rabbit2 The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin3 The Tailor of Gloucester4 The Tale of Benjamin Bunny5 The Tale of Two Bad Mice6 The Tale of Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle7 The Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher8 The Tale of Tom Kitten9 The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck10 The Tale of the Flopsy Bunnies11 The Tale of Mrs. Tittlemouse12 The Tale of Timmy Tiptoes13 The Tale of Johnny Town-Mouse 14 The Tale of Mr. Tod15 The Tale of Pigling Bland16 The Tale of Samuel Whiskers17 The Tale of The Pie and the Patty-Pan18 The Tale of Ginger and Pickles19 The Tale of Little Pig Robinson20 The Story of a Fierce Bad Rabbit21 The Story of Miss Moppet22 Appley Dapply's Nursery Rhymes23 Cecily Parsley's Nursery Rhymes
