Under Moonlight Beams and Twinkling Stars is a collection of short stories for children written by a group of women with loving souls. Following on from our book: Angels Everywhere, published in 2020, our inspiration behind this book is the awe-inspiring wonder we all feel standing beneath the stars on a moonlit night and the strong sense of connectedness to everything in the universe.

THE wind stirred the tops of the maple trees in the Quinsby front yard, and the old man who stood on the steps, watching the shadows and the moonlight, sighed as he heard the soft rustling sound. He glanced back into the house, through the hall, into the bedroom, where his wife was lighting a candle preparatory to turning down the bed. "I reckon I'll jest step down there a minit," he whispered to himself, and hurriedly but softly went down the steps. Far down in a corner of the yard, near the front fence, a hammock hung between two small pin oaks, and it was here the old man went, looking back uneasily now and then, as if he expected a call from his wife. The hammock was an old one, and had evidently hung there all summer, for the meshes were torn and all the gay colors had faded to a dingy gray. It tossed lightly in the breeze as the wind grew stronger, and the old man's hand trembled as he caught at its swaying folds. "Girls," he whispered softly, "are you both here? Are you pushing the swing, Winnie?"

Wartime Tales of Homefront and Battle Fatigue'Wartime Tales: The Taming of the Snoek' is a poignant little book that splits itself between tales of combat, of battle fatigue, and of keeping the home fires burning."If you want to better understand about the horrors of war, try 'The Officer' or 'Death Day' - both by Denis Kirkham. If you want to see war from the home-side, Isabel from 'Isabel's Kitchen' might just seem like your own gran. And the true story of 'The Telegram' will make you anxious with anticipation" - DCYou may be wondering where the book's subtitle emerged from. The publisher was inspired by a wartime cookery book which mentioned snook or snoek, a nourishing but not entirely palatable fish introduced as a good form of protein into the UK's diet during the Second World War. It was known to be unpalatable so many said it needed 'taming'. The format also came from the Shakespeare play, 'The Taming of the Shrew' AND simultaneously, 'The Hunting of the Snark' poem by Lewis Carrol, although neither have influenced this volume in any other way!'Wartime Tales' is quite simply a collection of short stories and a few poems that look at various themes connected with war - violence, homecoming, loyalty, team spirit, desperation, hunger, boredom, collective spirit, unexpected events and sheer, unbounded joy.With some controversial writings and other more domestic and homely pieces, I believe these writings will really make the reader think. With award-winning cover art by 13 year old Morrigan, 'Wartime Tales' is a perfect thought-provoking read for those quiet moments, and the contributors hope you enjoy reading it.For years, short stories and novelettes have been neglected and considered to be lesser art forms in comparison with the longer novel, but there is a place for all forms of fiction. Reading on holiday, when travelling or commuting, or when waiting in a doctor's waiting room - all these situations call for something stimulating and interesting to pass the time, but also something that will not be too complex concentration-wise.Shorter stories are ideal, and we are championing their return to favour.Published by Words Are Life.
