Product Information

This winter classic has enchanted children for over ten years and the BBC animation has become a favourite at Christmas time. With a sparkly foiled hardback cover and each copy signed by the author, this limited edition is something to treasure and keep. There was once a group of trees who were fed up with living in a deep, dark and crowded valley - so they moved to the enchanted forest. But as everybody knows, trees cannot walk without magic. From the creator of Hugless Douglas and The Kiss That Missed this stunning picture book tells the story of Jack, the small boy with the frozen touch. 'exquisitely illustrated and beautifully told' Primary Times

Poor writing, awful character, a nightmare to read.
The grammar and punctuation was very off and awkward at times. Some sentences seemed like they "right click thesaurus" 'd every other word. Many sentences are awkward due to the lack of common adjectives. Sometimes wrong words are even use. "The affect I had" instead of "The effect I had", things like that. Aside from the poor writing style, the story was extremely... unbelievable. She goes from saying her heritage is sooo rich and powerful and ran the government and were pirates and they did this and that and a bag of chips, then they gave it ALL UP to become poor doctors in the middle of nowhere. One of the stories she recalls is a flood where it ruins their straw mats, and her parents were surfing room to room on then, and then they were sent to bed hungry because all of their food ...

She goes from saying her heritage is sooo rich and powerful and ran the government and were pirates and they did this and that and a bag of chips, then they gave it ALL UP to become poor doctors in the middle of nowhere. One of the stories she recalls is a flood where it ruins their straw mats, and her parents were surfing room to room on then, and then they were sent to bed hungry because all of their food washed away. Were her parents that dumb to "Surf" on straw mats instead of salvage what food they could because it was all on the floor? Or is it a tall tale Another story she recalls making the decision to become a "geiko" at the age of 3 because she could feel the aura of a stranger that came into the house, yet she needed to suckle on a stranger's breast some time later or she couldn't sleep. After we get past the childhood part and we get into the actual "geiko" training, the writing does improve and everything seems a bit more straightforward and believable, however, she is not likable as a person whatsoever. Demanding people to rub her feet, forcing everyone else to treat her like a princess, acting like she is better than everyone else, and even finding out no one likes her, and her solution to that is to "become better than them" to get them to like her. I know that Memoirs of a Geisha is fiction, and this is the "real" geisha, but I think I'll stick to Mr. Golden. I just ordered 2 more books recommended to me, "Geisha: The Secret History of a Vanishing World Downer, Lesley" and "Geisha, 25th Anniversary Edition, Updated Edition Dalby, Liza" give them a try first for sure!

geisha revealed
i read this book because someone told me it was what Memoirs of a Geisha was based on, but once i started it i learned this is NOT the case... it was a good book to learn what GEISHA really means, how hard they worked, and to dispell the myths and misunderstandings behind the profession...but you could tell it was written by someone untrained in the art of writting since the prose was choppy and the author often went off on tangents... otherwise it was very informative and and interesting view of the geisha lifestyle as well as the stylized and ritualistic aspects of the japanese culturei read this book because someone told me it was what Memoirs of a Geisha was based on, but once i started it i learned this is NOT the case... it was a good book to learn what GEISHA really means, how hard they worked, and to dispell the myths and misunderstandings behind the profession...but you could tell it was written by someone untrained in the art of writting since the prose was choppy and the author often went off on tangents... otherwise it was very informative and and interesting view of the geisha lifestyle as well as the stylized and ritualistic aspects of the japanese culture

She really worked hard to become the best Geisha.
I took non_western civilizations while attending college and this was required reading. I also wrote an essay after reading it. I was quite surprised after reading and reviewing the book. It opened my mind up to the real Japanese culture. Not just what you see in the movies or television. It's very detailed; however, to become a Geisha one must be. How different cultures can be and be alike at the same time (What, I mean by alike is the constant need for most males to be entertained by a beautiful woman). She really worked hard to become the best Geisha. The one so many wanted to be entertained by. I enjoyed it and would recommend it.

geisha by john gallagher
The only problem with the book was an attempt to giving information why certain Japanesse cutural things came to be, and at times this made it seem like rambling. It would have been better to place this informative information at the back or front of the book. I found the book very intresting and truthful from her point of view. It should be read by all who want a more truthful and factual look into the geisha world. I would recommend it.The only problem with the book was an attempt to giving information why certain Japanesse cutural things came to be, and at times this made it seem like rambling.
