Books published by publisher W.R. Scott

The author uses a general-semantics approach to teach children about different points of view for the same object or event. The aim is to show the children how people can disagree and how to overcome these disagreements by realizing that what you see depends on your point of view. The book is well illustrated and the language used is plain and clear. An excellent introduction for children under 7 years old.

In a small desert village, water is life.Teiran’s mother is dying. When the ancient naiad offers a cure, Teiran jumps at the last chance to save the only family she has left. Even if it means risking her own life. Once a year, the naiad opens the gates to her enchanted forest, welcoming in anyone who wishes to claim her magic water. Not only does it have the power to heal, but it grants all who drink one hundred years of youth and beauty. But only the first one to reach the naiad receives her gift, and there are plenty of others who want what Teiran’s after. In the pre-dawn light of the summer solstice, the hopefuls gather, waiting for the gates of the mysterious oasis to open. They’ll have to be quick, for anyone still in the forest when the gates close is lost forever. No one knows what trials lie before them, but one thing is certain. Nothing comes without a price.
