Grumparar's the New
Creatures: An Adventure & Field Guide - T. E. Breitenbach  At
last we learn what those fleeting images of movement are,
the ones you often see out of the corner of an eye, but
which quickly disappear when you turn to look! They are the
New Creatures. With the aid of the magical Grumparar, we
join the author on his journey to the creature’s homeland
where he befalls adventure, mystery, and narrow escapes, as
he seeks to learn more about the host of funny, warm, and
frightening New Creatures. And—as if that isn’t enough—along
the way we find answers to many of life’s imponderables: how
sneakers get holes, where houseflies go in winter, and how
mountains talk to one another, to name just a few. The text
is well-illustrated with dozens of creatures and maps, while
an included "field guide" pictures and describes over 200
New Creatures. Conceived by artist T. E. Breitenbach,
well-known for his humorous Proverbidioms series of
paintings, this is an imaginative, allegorical adventure
like none you have ever been on. So, sit back, put your feet
up, and prepare to be entertained! (104
full-color illustrations, 5 maps, 1 chart)Gregory Maguire, the author of Wicked writes: “An impressive achievement, bravely independent and unique while at the same time reminiscent in parts of Lewis Carroll, C.S. Lewis, and Tolkien (though Tolkien is rarely as light) ... There is so much to admire—the impressive invention and the unrelentingly energetic application of so many areas of literary and aesthetic expertise—also the sheer design of the text, the variety and competence of the illustrations, the grandness of the conception.” Download for Nook and epub readers Download for Kindle and mobi readers  Phantastic!
- This
is a wonderful, phantasmagorical, clever, fanciful look into
the mind and artwork of the Author. The story is a pleasure
to read, and the way it is interwoven with the illustrations
works exquisitely. The detail and categorization of the
drawings (New Creatures) is nothing less than amazing. This
is a great read for both children and adults. I highly
recommend this. ~ R.R. |

Hieronymus: A Musical
Fantasy - $2.99 (A
Musical Script) T. E. Breitenbach HIERONYMUS
is a colorful, romantic fantasy about the medieval artist,
Hieronymus Bosch (painter of the Garden of Earthly Delights)
— When Hieronymus Bosch begins courting Anna, the daughter
of a wealthy art patron, he finds himself in a difficult
position. It seems there are a great many odd creatures
living in his house, a result of his over-active
imagination. This fact he attempts to hide from Anna and the
public. Anna soon discovers the creatures, though she is
instantly won over by the cute Sophie, and the funny pair of
Otto and Gregor. However, Erasmus, a jealous admirer of
Anna, also learns of the creatures and attempts to have
Hieronymus arrested by Church authorities for the practice
of black magic (a serious matter in these times). Though
Anna is brave at first about the creatures, she is also
concerned about having a normal and wholesome home in which
to raise a future family. She attempts to change Hieronymus’
ways, an improbable wish, and she is left to do some serious
soul-searching. As Hieronymus' imagination seems to lead him
deeper and deeper into trouble, he abandons it for a time,
even denying the existence of his beloved creatures. T. E. Breitenbach, the creator of 'Hieronymus', is himself
a painter of fantasy, well known for his masterwork 'Proverbidioms',
and as such he lends his own personal angst to the show—the
feeling that most everyone doesn’t really get it, even those
closest to you. The passion, the joy, the pain—the creation
and reality of such. ~ Barbara K.Download for Nook and epub readers Download for Kindle and mobi readers Click Here to order a CD of the music or to listen to sample clips. |

Little Black Boxes -
$2.99 (A
Musical Script) T. E. Breitenbach LITTLE
BLACK BOXES is a magical, romantic fantasy. It takes place
circa 1920. A small town is turned upside down when a
stranger, wearing a bowler and mustache, rides into town on
his bike and selectively hands out a dozen little, black
boxes. He instructs the new owners not to open his or her
boxes, for if they do the boxes will be empty. However, he
says that their patience will bring them (or someone they
know) a treasure. Along the way, lost loves are found,
mysteries uncovered, murderers and crooks are routed out,
and there is, perhaps, a miracle or two. Anyway—everyone
will get exactly what they deserve! Learn how lives are
changed for the better or worse as this unusual situation is
dealt with.Little Black Boxes is an ideal ensemble piece! Several simultaneous stories are being told, ensuring that no two characters dominate the performance. Little
Black Boxes is a magical and charming show. Mr. Breitenbach
creates credible characters that we really care about. I was
left with a very good feeling. ~ Jean B Download for Nook and epub readers Download for Kindle and mobi readers Click Here to order a CD of the music or to listen to sample clips. |
