Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Here we have a bedtime story, with pictures, about the gentle night wind making its rounds. Through the woods it travels, across the fields and meadows, past the ponds, and over sleeping towns. On the way, the wind meets all kinds of animals, big ones and little ones, and it has delightful chats with them. For those that are supposed to go to sleep after a busy day, it sings a sweet lullaby. It calms the restless. Nocturnal animals, wide awake, searching for food or busy with social activities, fascinate the night wind. Even the flowers it passes are not ignored. Oh, the night wind has friends in many laces, and it likes to stop to say hello. Off and on, it loves to play games with them. But the visit the wind enjoys most is with two small children to whom it tells a bedtime story about all the wonderful experiences it has had on its nightly travels. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Eva, after the sudden death of her husband, could have given in to loneliness, but this was not her nature. Students waited for her. Staying away from church, even briefly, was out of the question. Choir members counted on her to be at rehearsals and Sunday morning anthem singing. How comforting, exciting, and truly stimulating to be surrounded by people! Life did not always bring easy days for the new widow. Frustrations abounded, but her innate resilience made her do things she had never tackled before. Only as last resort, she asked for help from friends. Eva was fortunate to have many circles of friends and beloved family members, though most of the latter lived thousands of miles away. She also know that, in order to keep friendship and family ties alive, she had to do her part. "You have to give, if you want to receive" was her motto. And no day went by on which she did not thank God for keeping his watchful eye on her and for blessing her with circles of friendship and love. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. World War I had ended; peace was here at last. Wandervoegel (Tramping Birds), members of Germany's nonpolitical youth groups, were once again free to explore the countryside. With rucksacks on their backs and songs on their lips, they tramped from village to village and from city to city. While on the road, they enjoyed camaraderie, learned self-sufficiency, delved into folklore, and had many cultural experiences. Kurt, a young adventurous teenager from Berlin, had been a Wandervogel. His diary, in which he chronicled his 1920/1921 amazing travel experiences in pictures and in words - often witty, sometimes pensive - did not come to light until close to a hundred years later, when his daughter, the author of this book, found it in an old box in the attic and decided it would make delightful reading for young people as well as adults.
