YOU'RE NOT AFRAID TO COME PLAY IN THE WOODS ARE YOU...? IT'S THE SUMMER OF '77 A group of boyhood friends in an idyllic rural neighborhood. An annual rite of passage in a dark and alluring Pennsylvania wood. The invocation of an ancient Presence. And a childhood game gone terribly wrong.... EIGHTEEN YEARS LATER Two brothers haunted by the unspeakable memory they would do anything to forget. An appealing tavern proprietress & psychic intuitive from New Orleans with an enigmatic past. An ancient apocryphal prophesy fulfilled. And a journey into a harrowing new reality haunted by something far more dangerous than a memory.... A thought-provoking, emotionally charged tapestry, the suspense builds to near unbearable levels as each story simultaneously unfolds in alternating chapters between the chilling events of 1977 and 1995. When Light and Dark converge in a spiritually charged climax of biblical proportions, the result is a taut and twisted supernatural thriller certain to leave you as satisfyingly on edge as you are shocked. Sweetly Nostalgic & Brutally Terrifying, THE LITTLE WOODS is a Grainy and Riveting Supernatural Suspense to the Very Last Page!

Little Woods by Steve Campbell Pdf

In 1833, a young, lightning-scarred oak tree grows near a village of Potawatomi Indians, the Neshnabek. Here, Watseka and her family must fight to save themselves from the onslaught of white migration and disease in the Little Woods. But the mandates of the Indian Removal Act of 1830 and the atrocities of the Black Hawk War of 1832 serve to undermine the Neshnabek's bargaining position as they relinquish their legacy through the Treaty of Chicago and prepare for their removal to the west. That same venerable oak stands in twenty-first-century St. Charles, Illinois, and bears witness to violence, despair, and hope in the McCallum family's fight to surmount turmoil inflicted by the encroaching world. When her job is outsourced to Venezuela, Marilyn McCallum falls into clinical depression. Her husband, Lloyd, sinks into the compulsion of illegal sports betting after his profession is supplanted by a superabundance of Chinese engineers. But with adversaries and allies emerging from surprising places, the McCallums must come to quick terms with their new reality. The fate of these two culturally diverse families living in different eras of Illinois history merge in Little Woods, a gripping tale of globalization's disturbing effect on life in the present and the past that offers a sobering view of our future.

Laura Ingalls Wilder: The Little House Books Vol. 1 (LOA #229) by Laura Ingalls Wilder Pdf

Originally published from 1932 to 1943, Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House books are classics of children’s literature, beloved by millions. But readers who last enjoyed them as children may be astonished at the quiet poetry of Wilder’s prose and the force and poignancy of her portrait of the lives of American pioneers. Now The Library of America and editor Caroline Fraser present a new two-volume edition that affirms Wilder’s place in the American canon, reintroducing these enduring works to readers young and old. Here, for the first time in two collectible hardcover volumes, are all eight Little House novels—brilliant narratives of the early life of Laura Ingalls and her family as they grow up with the country in the woods, on the plains, and finally in the small towns of the advancing American frontier—plus the posthumous novella The First Four Years, which recounts the early years of the author’s marriage to Almanzo Wilder. This first volume includes Little House in the Big Woods, Farmer Boy, Little House on the Prairie,and On the Banks of Plum Creek, plus two rare autobiographical pieces that address the need for historical accuracy in children’s literature and reveal real life events not included in the novels. A companion volume gathers By the Shores of Silver Lake, The Long Winter, Little Town on the Prairie, These Happy Golden Years, and The First Four Years Each volume features a newly-researched chronology of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s life and career, and helpful notes. The volumes are also available in a deluxe collector’s boxed set, The Little House Books: The Library of America Collection.
