THE OLD TOBACCO SHOP - A Story about a Boy who sought Adventure. E-book. Formato PDF William Bowen - Abela Publishing, 2021 -
The Old Tobacco Shop: A True Account of What Befell a Little Boy in Search of Adventure. It is a children's fantasy novel by William Bowen that was named a Newbery Honor book. The novel, published by MacMillan in 1921, is illustrated by Reginald Birch. Five-year-old Freddie meets the owner of a nearby tobacco shop, Mr. Toby Littleback; his old-maid aunt, Aunt Amanda; and Mr. Punch, a hunchbacked man who sits outside the shop holding cigars. Toby warns young Freddie never to touch the jar shaped like a Chinese man's head because it is filled with magic tobacco. Freddie can't resist, and after smoking the tobacco he finds himself and his friends on The Sieve, a leaky ship on the Spanish Main. They are first captured by pirates, then escape with the pirate treasure. Later they meet a Persian rug merchant who gives each of them their heart's desire. In the end Freddie falls ill, and goes into a coma. When he awakens he finds himself at home, recovered from the tobacco-induced dream. =========== KEYWORDS/TAGS: Old Tobacco Shop, little boy, adventure, action, fantasy story, novel, Newbery Honor Book, Freddie, Toby Littleback, old-maid aunt, aunt Amanda, Mr Punch, hunchback, cigars, jar, Chinese mans head, magic tobacco, resistance, smoke, The Sieve, leaky ship, Spanish Main, pirates, capture, escape, treasure, Persian rug merchant, hearts desire, ill, coma, tobacco-induced, dream, folklore, fairy tales, myths, legends, childrens story, stories, fables, Children's Books, European Tales & Myths for Children, Middle Eastern Tales & Myths for Children, Multicultural Tales & Myths for Children,
SOLARIO THE TAILOR and His Tales Of The Magic Doublet. E-book. Formato PDF William Bowen - Abela Publishing, 2020 -
The sequel to The Enchanted Forest, “Solario The Tailor And His Tales Of The Magic Doublet” is equally enchanting and full of the author’s imagination! The stories in this book are interconnected adventures told by one of the characters. In addition, all the princes, princesses, queens, and kings from The Enchanted Forest are present, and they make comments as they listen to Solario's stories. Even though the illustrations are old fashioned and quaint, if you like clever and imaginative and old-fashioned stories (the best kind) the book comes highly recommended.
