Two friends, a little ant named Tiki and a little bee named Fizzy, who are best friends, live in a very faraway forest. The two friends want to see the world from above. They can only see it from the ground and they suspect there are other wonderful things to see. They decide to ask their friend eagle named Orion to take them to see the world from above and the eagle is very pleased to do so. But then Tiki has to deal with his own fears. Orion talks to them about conquering our fears to achieve our goals, and explains that fear can keep us safe sometimes, but if we don't control our own fears, it can steal all we want to be in life, steal friendships and even steal love. Tiki and Fizzy realize they need to stick together and conquer Tiki's fear and they accomplish their dream. When they return to the forest, Orion tells them how important their individual work is to maintain our world beautiful and plentiful. The story leads children to understand that taking care of the world is an individual responsibility.The book is about love and being good to each other.

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Puritans, Plagues, and Promises transports you back four centuries into some of England's most tumultuous times. From the beginning pages, a web of intrigue engulfs the first two characters: the Cole family patriarch and his Puritan vicar. A participant in secret nonconformist meetings, the vicar is arrested, imprisoned, and put on trial in England's highest courts. Standing firm for his faith, he and eight fellow Puritans reveal conflicts of conscience with the Church of England's powerful leaders and with Queen Elizabeth's hand-picked Privy Council. In the face of adversity in London, powerful forces collide-with consequences of life or death.Author Cole's meticulously researched creative nonfiction narrative contains more than 500 citations to early books, manuscripts, court records, and other sources, some dating back hundreds of years. These records illuminate his characters' lives and reveal long-lost details hidden in England's archives-underutilized treasure troves of genealogical gems. The author provides eighty-five images of people, places, and parchment. Two dozen have never been published, revealing more than twenty historic genealogical breakthroughs.The resulting stories expose formidable influences and challenges-political, religious, legal, and economic-that set the stage for conflicts of Church and State, the rule of law, and a monarch's absolute power. Puritans are caught up in extraordinary circumstances that reveal the adventures of ordinary people who were brave and daring. Plagues decimate some families and skip others. Their stories rivet our attention. Deeply touched, we are left to reflect on what might have been. Promises are made, broken, fulfilled, unfulfilled, and sometimes deferred. These multi-faceted storylines draw us into the lives of those who set the stage for colonizing America.As a fitting climax, the author delves deeply into the final straws that push, pull, and propel the author's ancestors and 21,000 other English men, women, and children to leave England during the Great Puritan Migration and forge new lives in America. The story of Puritans, Plagues, and Promises is one that represents us all. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers CIN173771602XG
