By Dwayne Nelson
Merlin's Book of Poems is a collection of poems written by author Dwayne Nelson. However, the idea behind this book is a story in itself. Dwayne visualized Merlin the Magician living a long life backwards in time, and on his many journeys throughout the world he met many types of people. All of these people had stories to share with him and he wrote a lot of them down, and thus began his book of poems. This book focuses on a variety of entertaining topics to explore and reflect upon. There are important valueable life lessons that the author means to express. In all, Merlin's Book of Poems is for all ages and hopefully will bring a smile to all of those that read it.

By A. Riggs
Influenced by Tolkien and many other notable authors, Riggs has been writing stories since age eleven. She has compiled in this book all her finished works from her first seven years of serious writing. Getting into heavy metal in her mid-teens, she began writing poetry in order to better understand herself and the world around her. Impossible love, bitterness, psychoanalysis, and attempts to understand life, the universe and everything; all these themes play parts in the poetry of a girl increasingly anxious to find peace. From tales of fantasy and friendship to the end of the world to the death of a loved one; the stories reflect the growth of a child who never quite fit in.

Beginning with a single San Diego team in 1996, today Starlings Volleyball Clubs, USA, is the largest Junior Volleyball program in the nation-serving more than 2,000 girls in over 30 cities. Starlings clubs are found in America's inner cities as well as on Navajo and Apache reservations in the Southwest. The Starlings program indeed stands out in a sport largely nurtured in America's well-to-do suburban neighborhoods-providing an opportunity for girls, ages 10 to18, to participate regardless of their socioeconomic background. Club dues are minimal and no girl is turned away because of inability to pay. Over 100 Starlings have received college volleyball scholarships. The philosophy is a holistic one: competition is good but sports should be fun too. A Starling girl is also encouraged to develop all her talents; thus, an annual Literary/Art Contest is sponsored. There are many ways a teenage girl can take wing, given the chance. To celebrate the Starlings 10th anniversary in 2006, a collection of essays, poems and art work has been selected from submissions to the 2005 competition. That year's theme: "What Starlings Means to Me". As anyone will learn from this remarkable collection of works, being a Starling means a lot more than just playing volleyball

A Preface to Colonial American Poetry is a practical source for anyone interested in American literature. Encyclopedic and groundbreaking, A Preface to Colonial American Poetry presents a critical, analytical survey of Colonial American poetry within the context of American literature in general. In clear and easy to understand language, the book chronicles significant events from the arrival of the first emigrants at the Jamestown colony to the Declaration of Independence. The poetry of New England, Middle and South colonies is discussed with its fascinating interplay of diverse influences. The early settlers had already burned most of their bridges to the traditional culture behind them when they sailed for America and yet their writers kept looking back for inspiration. Author Wisam Khalid brings his modest experience with foreign students to the formation of this book to help international students better understand American history and literature in terms of discovery, foundation, periods and pioneers. Author Wisam Khalid has tailored this book to fit the needs of not only foreign seekers but also native undergraduates who will find interesting comparative insights into American and English poetry.
