Adventures Of The Teenie Weenies 32 Adventures Of The Teenie Weenie Folk

Herein are 32 adventures of the Teenie Weenies. While they are small in stature, they have the hearts of heroes. But just who are the Teenie Weenies? The Teenie Weenies are a very tiny, little people and are about half an inch, or just over a centimetre, in height. The older Teenie Weenies are from two and a half to three inches tall ( 6 to 8 cm). Paddy Pinn is the tallest one and he really is a Teenie Weenie giant, for he stands four inches (10cm) in his stocking feet. The little folks are so small that a lead pencil is to them a great log and a clothes pin will keep the tiny fire place burning for some time. A large tea cup would almost hold the entire family and they could go swimming all at once in a wash basin. So, if a piece of cheese goes missing from the fridge, or a reel of cotton should disappear, you now know better than to ask “why.” And, the next time you are in the kitchen making a midnight snack, be sure to TREAD CAREFULLY! Also included are 9 full page colour plates with many, many pen and ink vignettes sprinkled throughout the volume bring the stories to life.

In TEENIE WEENIES IN THE WILDWOOD, the Poet and the Lady of Fashion get kidnapped by the Wild Men, and the rest of the Teenie Weenies mount a rescue expedition. This book contains 8 full colour plates and many, many Pen and Ink Vignettes. The Teenie Weenies had known for some time that a tribe of tiny wild men lived in a big swamp many teenie weenie miles from the shoe house. Field mice and birds had carried the news of these strange little people to the Teenie Weenies for some time. The wild men spoke a language quite different from the Teenie Weenies. “These wild men are very cruel,” a friendly bird told the Teenie Weenies. “They are called Saboes, or frog eaters, and they would just as soon destroy a person as look at him.” Despite leaving them alone, one afternoon a snail “raced” up to the shoe house with alarming news—the Lady of Fashion and the Poet had been captured by the wild men! “Gracious!” gasped the General who then ordered the alarm bell be rung. In a few minutes, two birds flew under the rose bush where the village stood and one by one, several mice, a squirrel and a couple of intelligent-looking bugs appeared. “Friends,” said the General, addressing the assembled crowd, “I have terrible news! The Lady of Fashion and the Poet have been captured by the wild men. This—this snail here has just brought the report.” The Teenie Weenies and their friends were much shocked by the news. They decide to mount a rescue and plans are put into action. To break open the enemy fortress, the Teenie Weenies hire a mole to dig a tunnel, and mine the wall with a firecracker. But what happened next? Did they manage to mine the enemy’s camp and set the mine off? Was a peaceful solution found, or did they have to use force to break the Poet and the Lady of Fashion out?

Herein are 26 illustrated tales about the goblins, fairies, elves, pixies, and ghosts of Lancashire for children. As you can see this book is not only about goblins but rather about the many beings which inhabit the lands of the Fairy Kingdom. Herein you will find stories like: * The White Dobbie * The Skriker, or Shrieker * The Unbidden Guest * The Fairy's Spade * The King Of The Fairies * The Captured Fairies * The Pillion Lady * The Fairy Funeral * The Silver Token * The Rescue Of Moonbeam; plus many, many more. But are goblins really as bad as they’ve been made out to be? Over the years, we have been told to think of Goblins as the most undesirable members of the Fairy kingdom. Well, if all the stories we read are only about the bad, or evil, Goblins, then that is likely to sway our opinion. It reminds me of the old adage, “The victorious in battle, get to write the world’s history.” In times well past, it is easy to understand how the unlettered peasant could people desolate areas with beings of another world; either the bleak fells, the deep and gloomy gorges, the wild cloughs, the desolate moorland wastes; or the salt marshes where the breeze-bent and mysterious-looking trees waved their spectral boughs in the wind; the dark pools fringed with reeds, amid which the 'Peg-o'-Lantron' flickered and danced, and over which came the hollow cry of the bittern and the child-like plaint of the plover; and the dreary glens, dark lakes, and long stretches of sand of the north and west. To them the forest was a place of solemn, Rembrandt-esque gloom, where Druids erst heard victims groan, the lonely fir-crowned pikes, and the mist-shrouded mountains, would seem fitting homes for the dread shapes whose spite ended itself in the misfortunes and misery of humanity. Pregnant with mystery to such a mind would be the huge fells, with their shifting 'neetcaps' of cloud, the towering bluffs, the swampy moors, and trackless morasses, across which the setting sun cast floods of blood-red light; and irresistible would be the influence of such scenery upon the imagination of lonely traveler riding, or walking, between villages and towns at night, with a feeling that he was surrounded by the supernatural. So sit back with a steamy beverage and be prepared to be entertained for many-an-hour. 10% of the net sale will be donated to charities by the publisher. ============== KEYWORDS/TAGS: Goblins of Lancashire, fairy tales, folklore, myths, legends, children’s stories, childrens stories, bygone era, fairydom, ethereal, fairy land, classic stories, children’s bedtime stories, happy place, happiness, elf, elves, pixie, piskie, supernatural, Skriker, Unbidden, Guest, Fairy's Spade, King Of The Fairies, Mother And Child, Spectral Cat, Captured Fairies, Pillion Lady, Fairy Funeral, Chivalrous Devil, Enchanted Fisherman, Sands Of Cocker, Silver Token, Headless Woman, Rescue Of Moonbeam, sun, moon, White Dobbie, Little Man's Gift, Satan's Supper, Earthenware Goose, Phantom Of The Fell, Allhallow's Night, Christmas-Eve Vigil, Crier Of Claife, Demon Of The Oak, Black Cock, Invisible Burden

Herein are 11 tales taken from the time when the earth was young. In those days, indeed, the grown folk all loved wonder tales as well as children love them now and were not worse because of it. Sometimes these wonder tales were told by magic chairs or chests; sometimes by birds or beasts that were enchanted and had power of speech. It is from these wonder tales that these 11 stories have been selected. The stories in this volume are: I Dame Grumble and Her Curious Apple-Tree II A Tale of the Northland Kingdom III The Little Tree that Never Grew Up IV The Tale of Punchinello V The Strange Tale of the Brown Bear VI The Beggar Princess VII Sweep and Little Sweep VIII Kings and Queens and Peasant Folk IX The Goose Girl and the Blue Gander X The Little Brown Man XI A Tale for Halloween These tales are from long, long ago, when all the world was young and there were but few people dwelling on it, the strangest things would often come to pass. This was the time when fairyfolk still lived in the greenwoods and elves sang and danced in the soft summer dawns. Then trees could sing and flowers speak and birds would carry messages about the world; wild beasts were not always wild and ferocious and were often loyal friends to men and helped them in their difficulties. In these old days, most noble dukes and earls would fall in love with dairymaids whose gentle ways and manners charmed their hearts. Sometimes great kings grew weary of the splendor of their courts and left their thrones to live a simple life. Each princess had a fairy godmother who showered her with magic gifts. Wise men read the stars and seers would gaze in crystal bowls to tell the coming good or ill they saw. In those old days, the housewives left a bit of bread and cheese upon the pantry shelf each evening, that the brownie who was said to dwell in every kitchen might have a midnight feast. These brownies, 'twas said also, would make much mischief if they were not treated very well. In early dawns, when fields of flowers were a-sparkle with dew and sunlight, the milkmaids used to bathe their eyes and ears with dew that they might see the fairyfolk forever afterward and hear them sing at midnight in the surrounding glens. The farmers' boys would search among the hedges in hopes of meeting The Red Caps who were said to bring much luck. These Red Caps too were said to give a magic purse of gold to those they fancied,—a purse that was always brimful no matter what was spent from it. Witches still rode broomsticks through the skies and there were wishing wells and magic charms and spells. So, we invite you to curl up with this unique sliver of Fairy culture not seen in print for over a century; and immerse yourself in the tales and fables of yesteryear. **CHALLENGE: Every story is terminated with an illustrated tailpiece. In this book it is an illustration of mushrooms and plants.

Willie the Mouse had often hear his parents say “the Moon was made of Green Cheese” and one evening he thought he would see for himself if this were indeed true. So, he packed up a piece of cheese and a crust of bread, and, taking his lantern, set out on his travels. On his way he met his friend Mr Woodmouse and Jenny Wren who said one evening she had flown ever so high but didn't seem to get any nearer. He also met Mr Squirrel and Mrs Mole who both said they didn’t think he would succeed, but he knew he had to try for himself. Out in the moonlight, while the owls were hooting, he also met a very special, magical being. But who was this special being? Well, you’ll have to download this book and find out for yourself! A children’s adventure by moonlight – the story is well written by Alta Tabor and exquisitely illustrated by Florence White Williams with 22 illustrations, 10 of which are in colour. ============= TAGS/KEYWORDS: Childrens adventure, folklore, fairy tale, expectant mothers, babies, toddlers, bundles of joy, Christmas gifts, moms with kids, beak, bread, cheese, child, Clover, dark, disappear, Elf, flew, gaping, gay, gleam, hole, come, Jenny Wren, lantern, mice, Mole, moon, Mouse, Nonsense, Owl, owlets, polite, sky, Squirrel, Willie Mouse, wise, woods, Woodmouse, yellow
