The story contains many of the elements of the classic fairy tale - the offended guest at a birthday celebration, the perilous journey to retrieve the object (in this case, the magic nut) that can save the injured princess, the hero's trials and temptations, the competition of suitors seeking the princess' hand and thereby the kingdom - but, in typical Hoffman style, the anticipated happy ending is ultimately postponed - until the story continues in the Tchaikovsky ballet. The book leads the reader through the ballet, scene by scene, with detailed sketches of the sets, costumes, masks, and props created for the production. The authors of the production - Mihail Chemiakin, composer Sergei Slonimsky, and choreographer Donvena Pandoursky - describe their intentions in introductory texts.

The Magic of Walnuts - Walnuts for Natural Cures And Good Health Table of Contents Introduction Most popular Walnut Cultivars Growing Walnuts Harvesting Storing Walnuts Nutritive Value of Walnuts Walnut Granola Walnuts to Cure You Walnuts for Constipation Pain in Joints Traditional Toothpaste Out Of Walnuts Walnuts for Improving Your Memory Natural Walnut Tune-up Tonic Walnuts for Skincare Walnuts for Chest Infections Precautions and Possible Side Effects Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction Since ancient times, walnuts have been among the most popular – and also the most expensive – of dried fruits available to mankind. If you found yourself in ancient China and happened to be a member of the court of the Emperor, you would show your status by holding a pair of perfectly and symmetrically shaped walnuts. They would be large in size and would be moved around on your palms, while you discuss weighty political matters with the rest of your peers. They would also be rotating and pressing walnuts while arguing the point with you. The ancient Chinese considered these walnuts pressing their palms to be aids in acupuncture, especially when this pressure promoted the circulation of blood. If you are in ancient Rome, and were in Julius Caesar’s circle, you could perhaps see one of his slaves using red-hot walnut shells as a rather painful depilatory in order to keep Caesar’s skin smooth and hairless. Even today, in many parts of the world, burnt and powdered walnut shells are used as a scrub to prevent growth of hair. A traditional and very politically incorrect old Irish saying says “, a dog, a woman, a Walnut tree, the more you beat them, the better they be .” That is definitely not true, because I could not “see” anybody beating a Walnut tree, though, I have been witness to animals and human beings being treated to violence often, and all over the world. If you were a friend of Leonardo da Vinci in medieval times, it is possible that you may have seen him doing some of his drawings with an ink made up of black walnut husks. Many of these drawings still survive today. Robin Hood in his mythological adventures always disguised himself by staining his skin with walnut juice obtained from crushed walnuts and walnut husks. This dye was brown in color, and was used for dyeing hair by the ancient Greeks and Romans.

Mackie and the Magical Nut I thought long and hard of what I was going to use as a character. I wanted something realistic and fun. I came up with a squirrel because I havent seen one used in a very long time and it was something that kids see all the time, most everywhere. Also if a child was to approach ne, it would run away so they couldnt get hurt. I believe every child and even adults lack some type of confidence and it can be very challenging to get past that awful feeling. Honestly when I created Mackie and the Magical Nut, not only did I have fun doing it, but I could see him being very popular at some point. (Big dream) When my Grandson became old enough to enjoy a story I would always tell him about Mackie and he is without a doubt a true Mackie believer. Even when he stays over and is a little scared at night, he has a stuffed squirrel that he sleeps with and all is well. My daughter tells me all the time when a squirrel runs by, hell say their goes Mackie, or one of his relatives. I have four Grandsons the youngest being two and I have to say, Mackie is a big part of our lives. The names in the book are all related to me somehow, whether its a niece, nephew or son in law and husband. Thank you and have a nice day.
