A charming collection of children's stories by Oscar Wilde
The Happy Prince
This is the tale of an unhappy prince and how he teaches generosity and love to a small sparrow who becomes his friend.
The Nightingale and the Rose
A nightingale overhears a student complaining that his professor's daughter will not dance with him, as he is unable to give her a red rose. The nightingale visits all the rose-trees in the garden, and one of the roses tells her there is a way to produce a red rose, but only if the nightingale is prepared to make a sacrifice.
The Selfish Giant
There once was a giant who had the most beautiful garden, but he refused to share it with the children in his village. When springtime refuses to visit the garden, the giant becomes sad and angry—until he meets a little boy who teaches him how to love others.
The Devoted Friend
A young lad is befriended by a prosperous farmer, who takes advantage of the boy's generosity and only gives him broken promises in return. But the young lad continues to be generous, even though his last act of kindness costs him dearly. Only then does the farmer changes his tune.
The Remarkable Rocket
The king's son was to be married, and there was to be a superb fireworks display for the event. All the rockets and different kinds of fireworks were excited about their big moment. But the Rocket was very arrogant and self-important, causing problems for all of the fireworks.

Dollypogs

Jack London was one of the first fiction writers to achieve worldwide fame.

Here in "Brown Wolf," a couple living on a homestead in Northern California who take in a stray sled dog from Alaska. A story about the relationship between man and animal, "Brown Wolf" is among London's finest shorter works.
His Dog
Link Farris found Chum in a ditch by his farm with a badly broken leg. After nursing the dog back to health, Chum became Link's inseparable companion, protecting him from robbers and helping him herd the farm animals.
When Link realizes what a beautiful dog Chum truly is, he decides to enter him in a dog show, an adventure that reveals the mystery of Chum's ownership—and the battle Link must fight to keep Chum safe from harm.

“In every nook and cranny, high and low, they sought for him…he had vanished as a star vanishes when it drops from its place in the sky.”
From the author of such children’s classics as The Secret Garden and A Little Princess comes this enchanting story of a young boy discovering his true destiny.
Twelve-year-old Marco knows he is being trained for something, but he isn’t sure what. All his life he has traveled with his father in secrecy, learning many languages and the ways of a gentleman, but forbidden to speak about their country of origin, Samavia. Samavia has been fraught with war for the last five hundred years, ever since the prince mysteriously disappeared. But now, there is hope that peace may come at last, as it has been rumored that a descendant of the lost prince may have been found. And Marco is about to take on a secret quest that will change everything for his family and his country.

The first set in an extraordinary collection of personal letters, written by Lord Chesterfield
Not originally intended for publication, the celebrated and controversial correspondences between Lord Chesterfield and his son Philip were praised in their day as a complete manual of education, and despised by Samuel Johnson for teaching "the morals of a whore and the manners of a dancing-master." Reflecting the political craft of a leading statesman and the urbane wit of a man who associated with Pope, Addison, and Swift, Lord Chesterfield's letters reveal the author's political cynicism, his views on good breeding, and instruction to his son in etiquette and the worldly arts. These entertaining letters illuminate the fascinating aspects of eighteenth-century life and manners.
