A ragbag of whispers quilled into verses When the morning sun rose that day, I couldn’t have dreamt that it symbolised the rise of something new and uncommon in my life. The evening stepped in without me knowing that it did and that day was when my hands started dancing in twists and curves and I wrote my first poem. After that, whenever something touched me, I knew that my feelings would transform to find life in my words and come out as something different. This book is a huge little dream in itself and is the only thing that has been able to assure me that I can trust every letter and every word I write. Email: [email protected]

The definitive biography of the World War II events leading to the novel, plus a history of the novel, film, television series (including complete, detailed log of the show), and enough behind-the-scenes information and pictures to keep a whole squadron happy!

A witty and warm tell-the-time book, created by Kes Gray, author of the bestselling Oi Frog, and Mary McQuillan. Cluck O' Clock is a tell-the-time book with a difference. It recounts a day in the life of a group of chickens - each with individual and distinct personalities - as they fill their lives with food, exercise, visiting - and waiting for the fox. Teaches children to tell the time in a fun, but informative way. '... teachers and librarians will be happy to give this tale a few minutes in story hours about chickens or clocks'. - Kirkus Reviews

Twelve O’Clock Tales is the fourth collection of short fiction by legendary novelist and memoirist, Felice Picano (The Lure, Like People in History, True Stories). A personal homage to the storytellers of his youth, Edgar Allen Poe, E.F. Benson, and H. P. Lovecraft, as well as his acquaintances, Arthur C. Clarke and Harlan Ellison. Thirteen dark tales, eerie, bizarre, and dreamlike, the tales will thrill and disturb, discomfort and titillate, enthrall and leave you wondering. Picano ranges across time and space, from tribal West Africa to the American heartland, to a lab in Venezuela, and a California Highway fifteen years from now. His characters range from a teen accident survivor with a secret, to a far-future scholar forced to travel to a galactic backwater, to a retired L.A. cop who dabbles in astrology, and a peasant girl in B.C.E. Israel encountering the strangest of strangers. The thirteen tales include brand new stories and acknowledged Picano masterworks collected here for the first time.
