“Adventures of Poe the Cat” is the third book in the trilogy of fairy tale poems for children, following earlier published books “Chimes and Rhymes for Grown-ups, to be read to Children” and “Abracadabra: Children Bedtime Stories”. The Poetry Universe is a forum for poets and writers on Facebook, created in 2014. Members include experienced poets and beginning poets stepping into the poetry community. Our authors span the globe, and some poems are translated into English to reach a wider audience. My goal, as the forum’s founder, was to create a group whose spirit consists of total writing freedom and the widespread wings of the universe of thought. We are all trying to advance our poetic skills, visiting the furthest dimensions of Earth and the universe with our poetic pen, the starship doing wonders. Freedom and the wings of the Universe, its unfathomable tides, its enchanting veils, whether of time or love or anything else, are number one in what is guiding this group. The spirit of the Poetry Universe forum is aptly represented in its member’s entries. Poems are written across a broad range of subjects as well as in various styles of prose, and originate from all around the world. One aspect of the forum is our “challenges”, which have become very popular. After several challenges specifically designed to create poetry for young readers, we devised the idea of publishing books of children’s poems that would also delight parents. And thus, “Chimes And Rhymes For Grownups” was the first book with fairy tales born and followed by another one, “ Abracadabra: Children Bedtime Stories”, with as enchanting fairy tales and many more drawings that can attract children’s creativity. “Adventures of Poe the Cat” is the third and final book in the trilogy. Let’s give it a warm applause: welcome, dear “Adventures of Poe the Cat”! Our poetry book is rich in excellent, breathtaking poems with spellbound fairy tales that children of all ages will adore. We sincerely hope you enjoy this book as much as we have enjoyed creating it. Your acceptance means to us: ‘Mission Accomplished’, thank you! ~ Thaddeus Hutyra

A collection of confessional, hilarious, heartbreaking notes written anonymously on a public typewriter for fans of PostSecret and Other People's Love Letters. When Michael Gustafson and his wife Hilary opened Literati Bookstore in Ann Arbor, Michigan, they put out a typewriter for anyone to use. They had no idea what to expect. Would people ask metaphysical questions? Write mean things? Pour their souls onto the page? Yes, no, and did they ever. Every day, people of all ages sit down at the public typewriter. Children perch atop grandparents' knees, both sets of hands hovering above the metal keys: I LOVE YOU. Others walk in alone on Friday nights and confess their hopes: I will find someone someday. And some leave funny asides for the next person who sits down: I dislike people, misanthropes, irony, and ellipses ... and lists too. In Notes From the Public Typewriter Michael and designer Oliver Uberti have combined their favorite notes with essays and photos to create an ode to community and the written word that will surprise, delight, and inspire.

A sweet little cat drives a man to insanity and murder.... The grim death known as the plague roams a masquerade ball dressed in red.... A dwarf seeks his final revenge on his captors.... A sister calls to her beloved twin from beyond the grave.... Prepare yourself. You are about to enter a world where you will be shocked, terrified, and, though you'll be too scared to admit it at first, secretly thrilled. Here are four tales -- The Black Cat, The Masque of the Red Death, Hop-Frog, and The Fall of the House of Usher -- by the master of the macabre, Edgar Allan Poe. The original tales have been ever so slightly dismembered -- but, of course, Poe understood dismemberment very well. And he would shriek in ghoulish delight at Gris Grimly's gruesomely delectable illustrations that adorn every page. So prepare yourself. And keep the lights on.
