Freckles (Webster's Chinese Simplified Thesaurus Edition)

Freckles (Webster's Chinese Simplified Thesaurus Edition) Review

This edition is written in English. However, there is a running Chinese Simplified thesaurus at the bottom of each page for the more difficult English words highlighted in the text. There are many editions of Freckles. This edition would be useful if you would like to enrich your Chinese Simplified-English vocabulary, whether for self-improvement or for preparation in advanced of college examinations. Webster's edition of this classic is organized to expose the reader to a maximum number of difficult and potentially ambiguous English words. Rare or idiosyncratic words and expressions are given lower priority compared to "difficult, yet commonly used" English words. Rather than supply a single translation, many words are translated for a variety of meanings in Chinese Simplified, allowing readers to better grasp the ambiguity of English without using the notes as a pure translation crutch. Having the reader decipher a word's meaning within context serves to improve vocabulary retention and understanding. Each page covers words not already highlighted on previous pages. This edition is helpful to Chinese Simplified-speaking students enrolled in an English Language Program (ELP), an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) program, an English as a Second Language Program (ESL), or in a TOEFL® or TOEIC® preparation program. Students who are actively building their vocabularies in Chinese Simplified or English may also find this useful for Advanced Placement® (AP®) tests. TOEFL®, TOEIC®, AP® and Advanced Placement® are trademarks of the Educational Testing Service which has neither reviewed nor endorsed this book. This book is one of a series of Webster's paperbacks that allows the reader to obtain more value from the experience of reading.

Wanda's Freckles

Wanda's Freckles Review

Wanda has freckles. Lots and lots of freckles. They make her feel special, until the day in the park when a group of boys point, laugh, and tease her for having spots. All of a sudden, the freckles she’d liked become a problem. What can she do? Wanda decides that there’s only one thing: make her freckles disappear altogether!

At a time when there’s pressure to conform to someone else’s idea of perfection, this playful story has an important message: individuality and self-acceptance are to be celebrated. In this poignant and playful sequel to Wanda and the Wild Hair and Wanda and the Frogs, the ever-resourceful Wanda puts her imagination to work to try to come to peace with those troublesome freckles once and for all.

The critically acclaimed author/illustrator team of Barbara Azore and Georgia Graham bring another Wanda adventure to life with humor and wisdom.

Freckles by Gene Stratton-Porter, (Annotated) 2011 Edition

Freckles by Gene Stratton-Porter, (Annotated) 2011 Edition Review

Freckles is a novel written by the American writer and naturalist Gene Stratton-Porter. It is primarily set in the Limberlost Swamp area of Indiana, with brief scenes set in Chicago. The title character also appears briefly in Porter's "A Girl of the Limberlost".

The hero is an adult orphan, just under twenty years of age, with bright red hair and a freckled complexion. His left hand is missing at the wrist, and has been since before he can remember. Raised since infancy in a Chicago orphanage, he speaks with a slight Irish accent, "scarcely definite enough to be called a brogue." Exhausted after days of walking, he applies for a job with the Grand Rapids lumber company, guarding timber in the Limberlost Swamp. The lumber company field manager, McLean, is impressed by the boy's polite assertiveness and hires him despite his youth and disability. He gives his name only as "Freckles", insisting that he has no name of his own. He claims the name given him in the orphanage (which we never learn) "is no more my name than it is yours". So that he has a name to put down on the books, McLean gives Freckles the name of his own father, James Ross McLean. Freckles' duty is to twice a day walk the perimeter of the lumber company's land, a seven mile trek through lonely swampland, and to be on the watch for those who aim to steal the expensive timber. McLean's chief worry is Black Jack Carter, who has sworn to smuggle several priceless trees out of the swamp. Freckles' weapons are limited to a revolver and a stout stick, which he carries at all times and uses to test to wire that marks the company's boundaries. At night Freckles boards with Duncan, head teamster for the lumber company, and Duncan's wife, who becomes a mother figure to Freckles.

FRECKLES, a plucky waif who guards the Limberlost timber leases and
dreams of Angels.

THE SWAMP ANGEL, in whom Freckles' sweetest dream materializes.

MCLEAN, a member of a Grand Rapids lumber company, who befriends

BLACK JACK, a villain to whom thought of repentance comes too late.

SEARS, camp cook.

Laddie, A True Blue Story

Laddie, A True Blue Story Review

That spring I decided if school didn't stop pretty soon, I'd run away again, and I didn't in the least care what they did to me. A country road was all right and it was good enough, if it had been heaped up, leveled and plenty of gravel put on; and of course our road would be fine, because father was one of the commissioners, and as long as he filled that office, every road in the county would be just as fine.

Freckles: Angel On Her Shoulder

Freckles: Angel On Her Shoulder Review

Western Washington State - Two cantankerous characters, fifty somethings fall in love - a lady state trooper and a software mogul. She is widowed, he is a confirmed bachelor. Sparks fly, but a relationship is born or should we say reborn - they do not remember their first meeting as children who shared many interests. She was seven and he was nine when they met on that Whidbey Island beach long ago. Little did the lovers know of the coming storm - it would put their very lives on the line. They were troubled with premonitions. Fate would put them together at the wrong place at the wrong time - or so it seems, in the path of dangerous fanatics. Thrust into the fire, these defenders of the homeland and a handful of others faced the fight of their life on that icy wet November night against a determined terrorist cell with big plans. Would the couple survive to their wedding day? Would they even survive the night? Divine intervention from another character of supernatural persuasion, which had followed them from their very births, might help their odds. This 'secret' friend could have been responsible for incidents and accidents in their past that led up to this stormy November night. "That hillbilly angel is meddlin' agin'!" The author, Eric G. Waggoner was born May 24, 1956 in Everett, Washington and has lived in western Washington most of his life. He is a production worker at the Boeing Company in Everett and a freelance writer. This is his first novel offering, a dark somewhat romantic comedy with a good helping of dangerous adventure and explosive action involving a couple of cantankerous hillbillies. He cites various influences - Hunter S. Thompson, Tom Robbins, Ken Kesey, James Michener and others too numerous to mention. A teller of tall tales, he hopes this is tall enough for you. Eric now lives in Marysville with his wife and his 16 year old daughter.

Freckles: Webster's Timeline History, 1698 - 2007

Freckles: Webster's Timeline History, 1698 - 2007 Review

Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Freckles," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Freckles in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Freckles when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Freckles, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain.
