Frank Stockton not only gave us some great short stories but also some very well-loved children's tales. Frank Stockton (1854 - 1902) was an American writer and humorist, best known for his allegorical fairy tales for all ages. Rather than moralizing, he tended to poke fun at qualities like greed, violence, and abuse of power. The Lady, or the Tiger?, his most famous story (published in 1882), offers a compelling choice for the reader because there is no right answer. It is a fascinating illustration of the conflict between determinism and free-will, an increasingly popular choice for middle school language arts teachers to include in their persuasive writing lessons. His story, The Griffin and the Minor Canon (1885) received renewed interest in 1963, with an edition illustrated by Maurice Sendak. We feature both works on our Fairy Tales Guide. Stockton also offers a different storytelling style, a more subtle element of surprise, as in The Widow's Cruise, a slow-paced conversation between widows and visiting seafaring men, in which one widow tells the most dramatic sea story of all.

"The Aunt and the Sluggard" is a short story by P. G. Wodehouse, and features the young gentleman Bertie Wooster and his valet Jeeves. The story was published in the Saturday Evening Post in the United States in April 1916, and in The Strand Magazine in the United Kingdom in August 1916. The story was also included in the 1925 collection Carry On, Jeeves.[1] In the story, Bertie's friend Rocky, a reclusive poet who dislikes city life, needs help from Bertie and Jeeves when he is instructed by his aunt to go to exciting parties in New York and write letters to her about them. Plot He was a poet. At least, he wrote poems when he did anything; but most of his time, as far as I could make out, he spent in a sort of trance. He told me once that he could sit on a fence, watching a worm and wondering what on earth it was up to, for hours at a stretch. — Bertie describes Rocky, the sluggard[2] In New York, Bertie is surprised to be woken by his friend Rockmetteller "Rocky" Todd, who normally lives quietly in the country. Rocky received a letter from his aunt in Illinois and namesake, Miss Isabel Rockmetteller: she will pay Rocky an allowance, on the condition that he live in New York and write to her once a week about his experiences there so she can enjoy the city second-hand. She feels that she is not healthy enough to go to New York herself, though Rocky asserts that she is only being lazy. Wodehouse often has Bertie Wooster allude to a literary work he would have studied at school, though Bertie rarely quotes precisely, giving merely a sketchy version of the original work. An example of this in "The Aunt and the Sluggard" occurs when Bertie is at the hotel missing Jeeves: "It was like what somebody or other wrote about the touch of a vanished hand" (from Tennyson's "The May Queen"). Another example occurs when Aunt Isabel arrives unexpectedly at Bertie's apartment: "The situation floored me. I'm not denying it. Hamlet must have felt much as I did when his father's ghost bobbed up in the fairway" The contrast in Jeeves's and Bertie's diction leads to what Wodehouse scholar Kristin Thompson terms the "translation device". Jeeves often says something that Bertie repeats in less formal language, either to make sure he understands or to translate for someone else. This device is used for comic effect in "The Aunt and the Sluggard", when Jeeves provides a long, formal, sophisticated description of his plan for Rocky to have someone else write letters about New York to his aunt. When Rocky is confused by Jeeves's complex speech, Bertie translates Jeeves's idea for Rocky in much fewer, simpler words. The humour in these situations arises from the fact that Bertie's version is much shorter than Jeeves's. The title is a pun on Book of Proverbs 6:6 "Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways and be wise." The fictional character Jimmy Mundy is based on evangelical preacher Billy Sunday. In the story, Jeeves visits two nightclubs, "Frolics on the Roof" and the "Midnight Revels". Both of these names were derived from the popular "Midnight Frolics" at the New Amsterdam's Roof Garden theatre. Publication history 1916 Saturday Evening Post illustration by Tony Sarg Tony Sarg provided illustrations for the story in the Saturday Evening Post. Alfred Leete illustrated the story in the Strand. The story was featured in the 1919 collection My Man Jeeves and in the 1925 collection Carry On, Jeeves. There are some minor differences between the two book versions of the story. For example, in the My Man Jeeves version, one of the phrases in the poem by Rocky Todd which Bertie quotes is "With every muscle". This phrase is changed to "With every fibre" in the Carry On, Jeeves version of the story. The 1958 collection Selected Stories by P. G. Wodehouse, published by The Modern Library, and the 1985 collection P. G. Wodehouse Short Stories, published by The Folio Society and illustrated by George Adamson, included the story. "The Aunt and the Sluggard" was collected in the 1958 anthology The Saturday Evening Post Carnival of Humor, published by Prentice-Hall. Prentice-Hall.[12]

In part two our narrator, Joe, now older, heads out to the outback to raise sheep with his best friend who has just married a girl they had grown up with. Upon leaving she asks Joe not to let her new husband go near a drink- because he can't stop it once he gets starrted. Joe promises he won't. The reverend McLaghlin appears large in this story as well- bringing in the sheep.

Henry Lawson was one of Australia's greatest short story writers (I think the best) and poets, and hisn stories tell much about the people who settle Australia and fought the tough climate and barren landscape to farm and raise livestock. This story and the one that follows (Pt. 2) provied accurate histrorical depictions of the men, women, and families that settled that land, and the strength of good preachers who gave the people hope and strength.

"Extricating Young Gussie" is a short story by the British comic writer P. G. Wodehouse. It was first published in the United States in the 18 September 1915 issue of The Saturday Evening Post and in the United Kingdom in the January 1916 edition of The Strand Magazine.[1] It was included in the collection The Man with Two Left Feet (1917).[2] The story features the first appearance of two of Wodehouse's most popular and enduring characters, the impeccable valet Jeeves and his master Bertie Wooster, though there are some differences between this story and later stories in which they appear. Jeeves only plays a very small role in this story and Bertie's surname, which is not explicitly given, appears to be Mannering-Phipps, as that is the name of his cousin Gussie, whose father is Bertie's paternal uncle. Bertie's imperious Aunt Agatha, a recurring character, is also introduced in this story. While Jeeves is only a minor character in this story, he plays a larger role in the next published story in which he appears, "The Artistic Career of Corky" (originally titled "Leave It to Jeeves"), which was first published in February 1916. The first meeting of Jeeves and Bertie was chronicled in the November 1916 short story "Jeeves Takes Charge". Plot In Bertie's flat in London, around half past eleven, Jeeves wakes Bertie up telling him that his Aunt Agatha has come to see him. She is distressed that Augustus "Gussie" Mannering-Phipps, her nephew and Bertie's cousin living in New York City, has fallen for a girl named Ray Denison who is a vaudeville performer. Concerned about the family's prestige, Aunt Agatha does not want Gussie to marry a vaudeville performer like his late father did, though Gussie's mother Julia learned to be aristocratic. Aunt Agatha demands that Bertie go to New York and keep Gussie from marrying Ray.

Another great western short story by cowboy author Andy Adams telling of a rancher who had worked for years to build a good ranch with his own brand of horses- who suddenly has an old judgement come up against him- forcing the local sheriff to take horses as collateral. In Texas, where this story happens, justice often triumphed over the law- and this was a good example. Lawmen had to know when to work by the letter of the law and when not to.

An excerpt from Herman Melville's blockbuster adventure 'Moby Dick' describes a portion of Captain Ahab's relentless pursuit of the white whale which had nearly cost him his life in a previous hunt.

'Courage' is actually a very moving poem- a father's advice to his son. False Dawn had me holding my sides through parts of this story as our narrator, who we presume is working at a government post in India, accompanies a small party of locals who have decided to have a picnic about 6 miles from the village in the middle of nowhere when a rain and then dust storm kicks up.

Mundon Mandeville runs a thoroughly disliked repertoire theater company and is murdered inside a windowless room in the building although everyone involved has an alibi. Father Brown is a fictional Roman Catholic priest and amateur detective. He is featured in 53 short stories by English author G. K. Chesterton, published between 1910 and 1936. Father Brown solves mysteries and crimes using his intuition and keen understanding of human nature. Chesterton loosely based him on the Rt Rev. Msgr John O'Connor (1870–1952), a parish priest in Bradford, who was involved in Chesterton's conversion to Catholicism in 1922.[ Since 2013, the character has been portrayed by Mark Williams in the ongoing BBC television series Father Brown. Character Father Brown on a case, illustrated by Sydney Seymour Lucas for The Innocence of Father Brown Father Brown is a short, plain Roman Catholic priest, with shapeless clothes, a large umbrella, and an uncanny insight into human behaviour. His unremarkable, seemingly naïve appearance hides an unexpectedly sharp intelligence and keen powers of observation. Brown uses his unimposing demeanour to his advantage when studying criminals, to whom he seems to pose no danger, making him a precursor, in some ways, to Agatha Christie's later detective character Miss Marple. His job as a priest allows him to blend into the background of a crime scene, as others can easily assume he is merely there on spiritual business.

The story was written as a sequel to "The Ice Palace," and Clark Darrow appears in both. The omniscient narrator, who ensures that close observation is paid to Powell's story, draws in the reader. The opening line – "Jim Powell was a Jelly-bean"- labels the protagonist immediately, and as a character he remains within the stereotype Fitzgerald indicates, though he almost manages to break free. The history of Powell's life presents a tale of a family fallen on hard times. Powell is humiliated by the whisperings of the social set and chooses notoriety over civility. He fights for his country aged eighteen and returns at twenty-one with ill-fitting, unfashionable clothes which symbolize how he does not "fit" in society. Powell contrasts with the attractive and dynamic Clark Darrow. He is unsure of whether to go to the party Darrow invites him to, but Nancy Lamar, with her "mouth like a remembered kiss," entrances him. The simile is a romantic one, as although Powell has always known Nancy, she has never been attainable to him. Its a small town story with all its class divides and Fitzgerald builds some very believable caracters around which his story evolves.
