Under the care of a jolly elf, the Michalove children go on fanciful journeys among the stars, under the sea, to the North Pole, and to many other unusual, fascinating places. They encounter talking ants and farm animals, dancing pumpkins, and green cheese-eating Martians. But no matter where they go or who they meet, from the darkest recesses of a cave to the farthest reaches of the moon, Lisa, David, Stacy, and Karen always return to the comforts of home and family.
These treasured stories, originally written to connect a father at war in Vietnam with his four kids back home in America, will inspire children to expand their imaginations while learning important lessons about love, respect, and responsibility. Encouraging a unique closeness between parents and their children, this read-aloud collection will whisk families away on truly fantastic adventures.

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - During my time away, I included in letters to Sybil stories that she could read to our children. I felt that they would be thrilled to read of adventures that included themselves as the primary characters. Fortunately, Sybil saved all of my letters, which after these many years I have finally compiled. Those times were much more difficult for Sybil than for me. She had to raise four little children and worry about me too. It was even more difficult for her as she was living in a civilian environment where most people's contact with the Vietnam conflict was to read about it in the papers or watch the protests on television. She worried about losing a husband. Family, a few close friends and the nightly news got her through a difficult time in our lives. --from the foreword to The Four Little Children by Larry Michalove 'He didn't write about the war or the 114 combat missions he flew, earning him the Distinguished Flying Cross and eight air medals. Instead he wove tales about Martians and moon people and mermaids and the sea.' --Tucker McQueen, Atlanta Journal-Constitution 'Larry Michalove's story deserves a postscript--about how kids all over America are clamoring for his book.' --Kathy Kemp, Birmingham News 188 pp. Englisch.
