In Musical Instruments, inhabitants of Mammoth Island invite a visiting inventor to a concert of mammoth proportions! Instead of playing instruments, the islanders rely on musical mammoths for entertainment. After the performance, which includes a rather dangerous stampede, the inventor shares what he knows about musical instruments with a young islander named Olive and her friends. Sound waves of different frequencies result in different pitches, and instruments of those different pitches are combined to produce music.
At the age of twenty-six, with a failed marriage already behind her, Shelley Browning finally decides to go back to school and get ther degree. But history is about to repeat itself—ten years earlier, she shared an unforgettable kiss with Grant Chapman, her government teacher...and now she finds herself his student again. But this time, things will be different. This time, together they must find the courage to break the most sacred law of ethics at the university...or ultimately risk never knowing what the future holds for them.
This entertaining collection of essays deserves to exist because Sherlock Holmes sees things others don’t. He sees the world in a different way, and by so doing, allows us to see that same world and human behavior in different ways as well. Oh, sure, there have been countless detectives who have followed in his footsteps and who seem to rival his abilities. Just turn on the TV or browse the local bookshop and you’ll find idiosyncratic super sleuths using forensics and reasoning to solve a whole host of crimes and misdeeds.
