More Tales from the Enchanted Wood: a story for children of all ages

by Jonathan Schork

Overview

In The Love of Simon Fox, we were introduced to a fox and a little girl, how they changed each other, & what they brought to the lives of those around them. In this charming, sweet, funny followup, we learn more about some of the characters with whom we only made a glancing acquaintance the first time around. Were you curious about Peter Bear, Sanchez the Rabbit Chief, Cedric Marmot and his unlikely Friendship with Martin Badger? Jonathan Schork has returned from the enchanted wood with eleven new stories about some of the favorite characters you never knew. Find out how Peter Bear came to the wood & got a name. See how Irwin Heron got a blue bumpershoot. Read about Heloise Skunk’s little secret, the thing the ravens stole from the Gypsies, the hogs on holiday, & Freddie Stoat’s true love. Learn about the Great Fire and how Sanchez saved the wood, and what happens when a lost dog gets found. And if all that isn’t enough, learn how to make a dinner with recipes from Cedric Marmot’s famous cookbook. With a map and 21 new illustrations. More Tales... answers these questions and more in eleven interconnected stories that meandre through every district of the wood, and transcend time.

About the Author

An award-winning artist, author, & filmmaker, Jonathan Schork was born and raised in the Catskill Mountains of New York State, and spent several decades of his adult life in a solar house on the end of an island in the Florida Keys (where he developed and patented several alternative energy systems electronic devices). With a relentless curiosity and a determined ethos of community service, Schork includes among his interests Balinese Gamelan Music, history, public education, science, community activism, cuisine, & couture. He is a past board member of several not-for-profit corporations, and currently sits on the board of directors of a small Tampa Bay area arts & entertainment 501(c)3. Widowed in 2006 after 25 years of marriage to his high school English teacher, he resides today in a partially renovated, condemned house in St.Petersburg, Florida, with his mother, his girlfriend, and his semi-tame, stray cat. More Tales is his sixth book.
