Books with author Charles Albert Keffer

As a parent, I can attest to the lack of creative books out there which are not about some stupid frog or replication of Disney mediocrity now pushing over a century. That’s why I wrote, “Hypatia Time Travels” which introduces preschoolers to the concept of Time as theorized by Albert Einstein and whether Time Travel is possible. The book is written from the perspective of Hypatia, a renowned female mathematician from the 5th Century who serves as a superb role model for young girls. Our daughters need to learn early on that they can fully actualize their potential. I am hoping that “Hypatia Time Travels”, the first in a series of Children’s books, will illuminate the developmental path.

Excerpt from Nature Studies on the Farm, Soils and PlantsThis work that we are to begin together is not plant study merely, but a study of the growing plant; and our purpose is to learn to help the plants to grow better, so that they may give us larger crops. To do this we must learn something about soils as well as about plants. We shall find that the same law of life applies to plants as to animals and to man. Like us, the plant grows best when it is fed best.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
