Book 1 - Jack the Bad Crow Due to an unfortunate accident, a crow mother and her young son, Jack, find themselves living in a barn on a family farm. Jack is less than thrilled with their new living arrangements. He doesn't hit it off with any of the farm animals and quickly earns the reputation of being a "bad crow." Jack's mother encourages him to befriend a rabbit named Johnny and a squirrel named Alex. The three boys have many exciting adventures together. Their friendship grows until a Christmas Eve party where things go terribly wrong. Jack is left with a choice: will he embrace his good side or truly become Jack the Bad Crow? Book 2 - Jack the Bad Crow Strikes Again After Johnny and Alex stopped Jack the Bad Crow from ruining Christmas, life on the farm returned to normal . . . for a while. Unfortunately, those carefree days are brought to an end when a neighbor shares the news that Jack plans to strike the farm again. But this time, Jack is bringing his entire gang of crows with him! Will Johnny, Alex, and the other farm animals be able to stop Jack the Bad Crow again? Book 3 - Jack the Bad Crow Returns After a devastating loss, Jack decides to not return to the cornfields. He finds a new home and meets an unexpected friend—a crow named Margot. As the year passes, numerous changes come to the farm. Some changes are welcomed, while others are not.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis two-volume collection of folktales represents some of the finest examples of American oral tradition. Drawn from the largest archive of American folk culture, the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress, this set comprises magic tales, legends, jokes, tall tales and personal narratives, many of which have never been transcribed before, much less published, in a sweeping survey. Eminent folklorist and award-winning author Carl Lindahl selected and transcribed over 200 recording sessions - many from the 1920s and 1930s - that span the 20th century, including recent material drawn from the September 11 Project. Included in this varied collection are over 200 tales organized in chapters by storyteller, tale type or region, and representing diverse American cultures, from Appalachia and the Midwest to Native American and Latino traditions. Each chapter begins by discussing the storytellers and their oral traditions before presenting and introducing each tale, making this collection accessible to high school students, general readers or scholars.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK“The sun came out after the war and our world went Technicolor. Everyone had the same idea. Let’s get married. Let’s have kids. Let’s be the ones who do it right.” The Way the Crow Flies, the second novel by bestselling, award-winning author Ann-Marie MacDonald, is set on the Royal Canadian Air Force station of Centralia during the early sixties. It is a time of optimism--infused with the excitement of the space race but overshadowed by the menace of the Cold War--filtered through the rich imagination and quick humour of eight-year-old Madeleine McCarthy and the idealism of her father, Jack, a career officer. Ann-Marie MacDonald said in a discussion with Oprah Winfrey about her first book, “a happy ending is when someone can walk out of the rubble and tell the story.” Madeleine achieves her childhood dream of becoming a comedian, yet twenty years later she realises she cannot rest until she has renewed the quest for the truth, and confirmed how and why the child was murdered.. Publishers Weekly, in a starred review, called The Way the Crow Flies “absorbing, psychologically rich…a chronicle of innocence betrayed”. With compassion and intelligence, and an unerring eye for the absurd as well as the confusions of childhood, , MacDonald evokes the confusion of being human and the necessity of coming to terms with our imperfections.
