Amid the treachery and murder that are the drow’s daily fare, she feels something calling to her . . . something beyond this dusky world far removed from the sun.

"The issue of whether the Confederate flag belongs in front of government buildings, or even on Southern pride paraphernalia, has been a hot button for more than a century, long after the Civil War was fought and won. This book takes a close look at the flag's origins, its controversial history, what meaning it has for Americans living today, and the ongoing debate on its use and display"--

Are you looking for an easy and funny method to teach your child how to write letters and numbers?When you really think about it, the fact that children learn a language, learn how to speak, and learn to write in such a short amount of time is extraordinary. As parents and caregivers and educators, we all want to encourage our children to learn the skills they will need for a lifetime, but many of us don't necessarily think a lot about how those skills develop—or at what age we can encourage our children to start learning how to write.We might think that children don't really learn how to write until they approach older ages, but a study conducted by Washington University in St. Louis uncovered some interesting findings that prove otherwise. The study, which was published in the journal Child Development, showed that children actually start to learn writing skills as early as the age of three.This study, unlike other studies that examined how children's writing skills improve as they get older, looked at how early children actually learn how to write. The researchers found that children begin to write "words" that actually follow rules of the written language, as early as age 3. For example, they might write a word that makes no sense, but it might actually follow a basic rule of looking like a word with repeating letters that represent vowels or word types.Teaching your child to write begins at an early age. You can help boost your child's hand-eye coordination by introducing crayons or other writing tools at an early age, sitting down with your child to spell out words and talk about them together, and give your child room to explore writing. Even if the "words" your children write look a bit like gibberish to you, they are important first steps to learning how to communicate through the written language, so encourage him or her to write often.Letters Tracing for Toddlers is the perfect tool to teach your child how to write letters and numbers in a funny and simple way.Inside you will find:Engaging and simple designsClear tracing instructions for each letter and numberLot of space for your child to practiceAnd much more…This book is recommended both for children who already know the letters and only need to improve writing, and for those who are starting from scratch.Writing letters can be difficult...

Joe shares with us his funny look on life; 'Why does Mrs Tuttle pick up my poos, it's SO embarrassing?'

Yet when they finally reach the ice-walled city of Whitethrone, where trolls hold court and wolves roam the streets as men, will it be too late to save the girl from the forces of darkness?
