Weaver Tales Book Bundle

~*~ EXCERPT from The Weaver, book 1~*~   Tucked in a lush valley between two snow-capped mountains was the village of The Tales. Those who lived in the village were known as Weavers. Each person in The Tales could tell stories about anything at anytime, and they often did. Prose, poetry, limericks or yarns; they told stories of all types and styles.   On a balmy spring morning, Mary Wordsmith and her mother, Abigail, made their weekly visit to the produce market.   Thumping and acorn squash, Abigail said, “At last, here’s one that isn’t going soft.” She handed the squash to Mary who absently dropped it in the basket on her arm.   “Mother, must I recite today?” Mary grimaced at the thought.   Abigail placed a bunch of fresh spring carrots in Mary’s basket and offered a reassuring smile before turning back to the vegetable displays.   “A child once stood at the side of Main Street watching carts and horses pass her by. On the far side of the street the front window of the candy shop gleamed and beckoned, and her pocket strained with the weight of coins.”   Mary blinked back tears and shifted behind Abigail, who scooped snap peas into a brown bag as she wove her story. A knot of shoppers stopped to listen.   “Yet, the child never ventured across the street for fear of the traffic. Her pocket eventually tore, its contents trampled, kicked, and snatched away. And her tongue never knew the sweet salty taste of fresh pulled taffy.” Abigail placed the bag of pea pods in the basket and lovingly lifted Mary’s chin. “You can do it, dear.”   Mary felt sure her mother was oblivious to the appreciative murmurs of the dispersing crowd. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "The story is compelling from the first page" ~Reviewer. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "The reader will fall in love with this story" ~Reviewer TROPES: ❤️ Middle Grade fantasy/fairy tale ❤️ Original fairytale retellings ❤️ Set in a town of storytellers ❤️ A charming magical creature   BOOK(S) INCLUDED: ✔️ The Weaver - Paperback ✔️ The Wishing Well – Paperback ✔️ The Lumpy Duckling – Paperback ✔️ The Fairest – Paperback
