Books with author Lee Morgan

This is a story about the Norsling people who live deep inside a Scandinavian forest. They pretty much look like you or me—with the exception they’re only about six-inches tall. One specific family, who live in a huge tree called Ribe, decide to travel the long distance of two-miles to visit Mormor and Morfar (grandma and grandpa). Norslings don’t have cars, so they must walk to all their destinations. This particular journey will take a good eight-hours. Norslings get along well with about everybody—that is, except for cats…and sometimes uppity fairies.So, together, nine Norslings and one 2nd cousin fairy to be exact, travel the narrow path to the Land of Webster, pushing and pulling a wheelbarrow and cart.

Everyone in the world knows about the most famous nursery rhyme ever told-that's right, Hickory Dickery Dock and the mouse that ran up the clock. But wait! Did you know that the mouse that ran up the clock was named Terrance, that Hickory and Dickery were twin brothers, or that Dock was the most famous clockmaker in all of London? Well, if the answer is no, then you mustn't know about England's greedy king, or why the Hickory Dickery Dock clock ended up in Beijing, China, and created the world's longest unsolved mystery. Come, join Morris and his friend Fenton on a luxury liner out of San Francisco's bay, travel with them to Beijing's hall of clocks, and be amazed at how they befuddle China's secret police, and at the same time solve a two-hundred-year-old mystery by having the clock returned, but not to England, no, to the John Paul Getty museum in Los Angeles, California.

Lee is currently striving to be a remembered author, and is proud of his recently published book that's titled The Unexpected Patriot.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
