The Quest For The Magic Key

Aaron is given a secret by his Uncle Vern, which he shares with his brothers and cousins leading them into an adventure. They have been given the task to find the parts of the Magic key and bring them back together. During their adventure they discover special skills, make new friends and travel the world.

Jungle bedrooms, pirate treasure maps, a chocolate bath, little people with flying boots, a crazy parrot and a Magic Key can all be found in the first of a series of books about the Bugglepuff family. Captain Bugglepuff, his mad wife Delirious and their four rascally children Anenome, Compass, Rocky and Seasea live a haphazard day to day family life in the little English fishing port of Brixham, Devon, until the arrival of a mysterious crisp white letter in the post. Nothing in the Bugglepuff's lives after this letter will ever be the same again. It takes the Bugglepuff family to a new home by an enchanted creek that leads to a fantastical adventure in a world of magic where dreams can come true. But the family has to be careful. Temptations lead the Bugglepuff children and their extraordinary animals on a series of dangerous quests for which the price of failure will break the family apart and the world as we know it. Come on the adventure with the Bugglepuff's and let your imagination explode!

Mexican Americans comprise the largest subgroup of Latina/os, and their path to education can be a difficult one. Yet just as this group is often marginalized, so are their stories, and relatively few studies have chronicled the educational trajectory of Mexican American men and women. In this interdisciplinary collection, editors Zambrana and Hurtado have brought together research studies that reveal new ways to understand how and why members of this subgroup have succeeded and how the facilitators of success in higher education have changed or remained the same. The Magic Key’s four sections explain the context of Mexican American higher education issues, provide conceptual understandings, explore contemporary college experiences, and offer implications for educational policy and future practices. Using historical and contemporary data as well as new conceptual apparatuses, the authors in this collection create a comparative, nuanced approach that brings Mexican Americans’ lived experiences into the dominant discourse of social science and education. This diverse set of studies presents both quantitative and qualitative data by gender to examine trends of generations of Mexican American college students, provides information on perceptions of welcoming university climates, and proffers insights on emergent issues in the field of higher education for this population. Professors and students across disciplines will find this volume indispensable for its insights on the Mexican American educational experience, both past and present.

The original Quest of the Seven Keys, book 1 and 2 of the Cole Twins Saga, was the first translated work commissioned by the Lemurian Masters of the University. For readers who enjoy a longer read, the original full version is made available. An orphaned girl on a quest for seven mystical keys, each representing one of the great powers of true magic. As she journeys through a world rich with mystery, beauty, horror, and legend, a world on the verge of destruction, her mind, body, and spirit are tested. Helped and hindered along her journey by enchanted beings and demons, Aunan faces obstacles at every turn in her quest for the magical keys. Pursued by Akvan trackers, demons of Persian mythology, it is the determination and virtue of Aunan, as she enters into realms of illusion, reincarnation, and spirituality, which brings hope to the peoples of Azmerith that the magical keys will be found, united, and their magic renewed. Yet finding the keys and saving Lemuria from the dreaded High Lord isn’t the only destiny of Aunan. Within her soul lies a mission from her previous incarnation, that of Karolyn Cole, thirteen-year-old Catholic school brainy girl who drew spooky gothic drawings of dragons and mystical landscapes. As Aunan travels, her awareness grows as she gradually discovers her true destiny, and the history of her soul becomes clear. It is through the merging of the life of Aunan with her past life as Karolyn Cole of Earth that the quest is fulfilled, and her true mission is reborn.
