Secrets in the Magic Valley by Robert Stever Pdf

"Secrets in the Magic Valley" is a novel based on real places and special people. It's alive with ideas and thoughts that explore the universe of a curious mind. The story links an escape from a grimy, polluted town in Appalachia to a pristine valley in the Pacific Northwest where mysteries unfold. In this valley harmony breeds harmony. The valley reveals secrets such as rare plants and animals sequestered since the last ice age 10,000 years ago. Existing hot springs, natural wonders, and gold nuggets add to the intrigue and mystery. But it has other secrets as well. The ultimate secret climaxes the book. Three characters tell their stories--represented by youth, middle age, and older age--of growth into wisdom and experience, each making a difference in the lives of the others. It has been endorsed by Wilfred (Billy) Hopkins, author of four top selling books in the UK. "When it comes to writing beautiful prose, I have to take my hat off to you. Your descriptions are superb, lyrical and even poetic. Your dedication and love of the environment shines through. I liked your use of symbolism. The book has a rich philosophical vein running through it as well as beautiful analogies. A lot of dramatic surprises also keep the reader engaged. Dialogue runs smoothly throughout. It's a book that deserves a second reading in order to capture its full significance." Wilfred Hopkins

DOT AND TOT OF MERRYLAND - A Children's Adventure in 7 Magical Valleys by L Frank Baum Pdf

Dot and Tot of Merryland is a 1901 novel by L. Frank Baum, who also wrote The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. He wrote this story about the adventures of a little girl named Dot and a little boy named Tot in Merryland which is reached by a river which flowed through a tunnel. Merryland is split into seven valleys. The book was illustrated by artist W. W. Denslow, who had illustrated three previous Baum books. Evangeline "Dot" Freeland is sent to her rich father's country estate Roselawn for her health. She soon meets the gardener's son "Tot" Thompson, who becomes her friend and playmate. One day, they have a picnic and sit in a boat they find by the river, which gets away and takes them to a passage in a cliff face that brings them to the magical country of Merryland. Merryland is made of seven valleys, arranged in a circular pattern connected by a river running through them. The first valley is populated by clowns, the second is a land in which everything—including the people—is entirely made of candy, and the third the valley where babies grow from blossoms before storks deliver them to their parents. The fourth valley is populated by living dolls and is also the home of the Queen of Merryland, a large wax doll who makes Dot and Tot her adopted children. After Dot and Tot have a day of running the valley by themselves, the queen joins Dot and Tot to see the remaining three valleys. The fifth valley is populated entirely by cats, the sixth valley is run by Mr. Split, who makes wind up animals. The final valley is the Valley of Lost Things, where every lost item goes. Tot finds a doll he'd lost and is allowed to take it with him. The Queen decides to allow Dot and Tot to travel onward, which will take them back to Roselawn, but she will close the way to Merryland forever. Returning to the river, Dot is found by her father who notices that she no longer looks sickly. Tot deduces that the Queen of Merryland—who was either interrupted or forgot to answer when asked her name—must be named "Dolly."

The Tocal land and its people before and after 1822 by David Brouwer,Brian Walsh,Jennifer Laffan,Cameron Archer Pdf

In 1822 a young James Webber, recently arrived in the Colony, took up his land grant on the Paterson River. In that one act of possession, the landscape, managed and maintained by Aboriginal people for many centuries, was changed forever. James and his convict crew carved out a European-style agricultural enterprise by exploiting the rich diversity of the land. In a nod to the earlier custodians, he named his estate ‘Tocal’, an aboriginal word for ‘plenty’. Through toil and enterprise, successive owners grew rich on the Tocal lands, until, in 1965, private ownership ceased, and a new agricultural college was born on the site. That college, now retaining the name given to the land by its original custodians, grew into a thriving educational centre, with tentacles of training reaching throughout the nation. 2022 marks a significant milestone in the history of the land. This brief overview of its story—including the millennia before dispossession—has been compiled by four authors with over 170 years of combined memories associated with Tocal College and recording its agriculture and its history. Over its history, Tocal has touched many families and many lives, and it continues to expand its reach, including to the descendants of its original peoples who cared for and respected its resources. This book in a small way pays homage to all of those lives.
