Twenty stories with Henderson's usual mixture of perception, simplicity and insight into the workings of the human mind...especially the minds of children and of souls in fear...From the author of The People. The Indelible Kind: A son of the Cougar Canyon Group, Vince Kroginold, sees his immediate family detached for research purposes...J-Line To Nowhere: Everybody is impressed by the massive skeletons, but what about the tiny organic beings who created them? You Know What, Teacher? Teachers become repositories of family secrets. The Effectives: Could prayer be subject to analysis? Loo Ree: The imaginary friend of a first grader tuns out to be real - too real...The Closest School: Vannie may not be old enough for school--after all, she's not yet 600...Three-Cornered And Secure: An angel's work is never done...
The Taste Of Aunt Sophronia: An amazing cure - for the living dead. The Believing Child: Dismey doesn't necessarily have greater powers than other children. It's just that it never occurs to her to doubt that she has such powers. Through A Glass - Darkly: What if your peripheral vision allowed you to see into the past? As Simple As That: Who CARES what caused the Holocaust? When we live in a world of moldy bread, roofless classrooms and all...Swept And Garnished: Which is worse - a multitude of phobias and the rituals to deal with them - or complete meaninglessness? One of Them: One is the murderer and one is the victim - but who is telling the story? Sharing Time: The spheres that are sent for the human children break down their barriers to telepathy. The teachers have to ensure that the children can rebuild some of the barriers, so that the children can go on learning...Ad Astra: How very useful it would be to have people who breathe CO2 and exhale O2. But how to replicate the accident that created the first one? Incident After: Adapting after a cataclysm is not always about the big things. The Walls: Like any other sort of travel, time travel is not always under the control of the traveller. Crowning Glory: When short hair is all the fashion, how can hair be obtained for technological advancement? Boona On Scancia : Is it possible to breed Earth dogs with - flying dogs? Love Every Third Stir: Ant Comfort is not a witch - of course she isn't! But her potions seem to work wonders...
