![]() She wasn’t sure if she said the words or just thought them, but inside her head she was still screaming over and over. Blood coated her fingers and she drew them away, staring in horror. All the breath left her body when she saw the gash where he’d hit the rock. She put her hand to his head and gently turned it. She fell to her knees, hunched over him, unsure of what to do, whether she should touch him.

Seuss’s original screenplay and signature-style sketches, the timeless tale of Mayzie McGrewa girl who suddenly sprouts. Sorry if this has already been found I had not seen it. Think again With all-new illustrations and a revised plot based on Dr. As the theory points out, Mayzie falls on the "loves me" petal but one would assume that in Care's case it was on "Loves me Not" I had read a theory posted by another user about how the plucking of the daisy petals in the flower shed might have a connection to the common "loves me/loves me not" game and that game is also depicted in the story. I have heard people talk about the "nobody loves me" part but when she says "I can never go home" I couldn't help it be reminded of when Tool tells the player "You can never go home." Mayzie goes through many trials and eventually says to herself "I can never go home, nobody loves me, nobody loves me." ![]() Random House Books for Young Readers, 15 (56pp) ISBN 978-2-8 More than three years after his death comes a new work from bestselling. There are many things that can be correlated such as "good grief and alas" seen written in the game but also, when Wavey is watering Randice another connection is made clear, there is a part of the book where Mayzie becomes ill because the flower on her head is thirsty. BUY THIS BOOK Daisy-Head Mayzie Dr Seuss. Seuss book Daisy Head Mayzie and if any of you haven't yet, I highly recommend it to any Petscop theorizer! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Reading this book is so comfortable and uplifting, you almost feel as if you could conjure a herd of fireflies to get through a power outage, or a field of daffodils to celebrate a loved one’s birthday. ![]() It’s both a fairy tale and a love story, but love and affection seems to envelop so many different things: the natural world, a family, a partner, and the unexpected joys of navigating life’s ups and downs. Thunderstorms and blizzards show up seemingly out of nowhere, forests grow overnight, and wild animals seem to be able to communicate with humans. This story defies all meteorological, botanical, and geographical laws. Reading Beasts of Extraordinary Circumstance made me realize that there’s nothing better than a novel that feels both new and familiar at the same time.īeasts follows the lovable Weylen Grey, a lone wolf (pun intended), whose life is the stuff of fairy tales: his parents die in a blizzard, he was raised by wolves, he struggles with a foster family, meets a magic pig, stops a tornado, struggles to fit into society, and wanders the country on all sorts of grand adventures. White Fang, The Jungle Book, The Wizard of Oz, Charlotte’s Web, and even Lord of the Rings-they’re all in there. This wonderful, whimsical, warm-hearted novel is filled with subtle and not-so-subtle nods to the books I loved as a child. ![]() ![]() ![]() McKay’s spirit, along with his dream-inspired imagery, lives on through Nytra, whose remarkable debut taps into the same unearthly environment with a similarly enchanting effect.The extraordinarily delicate and fine-lined art incorporates touches of manga aesthetic so that, like the story itself, it merges timeless narrative elements to craft something wonderfully innovative. Winsor McKay was a comics pioneer whose early experimentation with the form nearly predated the form itself. His cavalcade of dreamscapes is a rich and beguiling experience that deserves multiple immersions. The intricate flowerings and soulfully etched forest backgrounds of the art make the black-and-white pages sing as though they were drawn in a rainbow of colors.To stick the landing, Nytra’s serene ending manages to be worthy of its glorious beginning. ![]() Or you could just enjoy the story on its own merits. It could be a great way to introduce kids to masterpieces of the past. ![]() 5/26/2023 0 Comments Something dark and holy![]() Duncan’s devastatingly Gothic Something Dark and Holy trilogy.

Confused you never heard about Black Zero? Well that's because other writers (rightfully) said "Wow Otto, that was really stupid of you to retcon the destruction of Krypton like that. Apparently Jor-el was an idiot and Krypton wasn't going to explode.but Black Zero happened along and helped blow it up so Jor-el accidentally was right. ![]() It is called "The Man Who Destroyed Krypton" and it involves a villain called "Black Zero" who was REALLY the person who destroyed Krypton. The worst story was written by Otto Binder and it was so bad it might rank up there as one of the worst stories I have ever read. The best story is one I have read before - the introduction of Mon-el. The stories have the connection of involving the Phantom Zone BUT it turns out most writers couldn't think of a good way to use it or construct interesting characters that escaped from it. Some of the tales were okay but - to be honest - this isn't worth your time. I got this on a lark because I like some of the cheesy fun of the silver age Superman. ![]() |
