I am trying to find a book that was in my school library. I read it around 1978-1980. I have no idea of the title but I remember the following plot points: a girl who lived on the edge of town possibly African American, sort of an outcast. Befriends a group of kids possibly 4-5 and teaches them t...

I have been watching around 1994-96 an anime/manga which main character’s name was David(if I remember right because I was very young) and he had a white horse that comes to him when he whistles. This is all I remember. It is not Lucky Luck because I think David was not a cowboy and was looking w...

I intend this Q&A to be a community-written and -updated post that details the most authorative answer to what is a pretty messy mechanic of a huge film series. It will try to justify things within the fictional world, not through meta-explanations (like, "the directors messed up"). I will supply...

I have heard that Freud wrote at length on the Grimm Fairy Tale: Little Red Riding Hood, highlighting all the suggestive themes and symbolism and "id-like" interpretations.

I am looking for a book that I read when I was very young, probably early elementary school in the 90s. I recall it had something to do with pheasant hunting. I think there was an emergency, or the adult got lost, and a young boy mustered the courage to figure out how to drive a manual transmissi...

I watched this one episode film when I was a child around 1996 or so. It was not a series film. It was a fantasy/sci-fi film. I do remember one battle scene where there was a white-haired (maybe old) man who is human from the waist up and has spider-feet below that. Knowing the name of that f...

A few years ago I read a book where a kid (I believe in first person) along with others were a group of chosen kids. Each kid entered a room where they chose an object special to them, the main character saw a floating earth that mimicked reality (water felt cool, the grass, air, n/s poles) He en...

I read a book before a long time ago about a kid (named axel, axis something like that) who was a brilliant young kid attending a school with older people. I don't remember much, except that he crossdressed as a disguise with a wig and even used toilet paper to mimic the female genitalia. Eventua...

A few years ago I read an excellent short story that I've been looking for ever since. Here's what I can remember: In this story's world it was common for people to sell shares of themselves (or shares of their future income) on the financial markets, like how companies sell shares of stock. The ...

In the VOY: Counterpoint, crew members who are telepathic hide in the transport buffer until the Devore leave. Tuvok and Vorik, both Vulcans, were also in the buffer. In The Elysian Kingdom, Hemmer says that because of his telepathic abilities, he isn't trapped in the fairytale like everyone else...
