Look Inside the Book

"Now that I have found the Canon Press series, I will not use any other edition of Spenser's The Faerie Queene. Engaging (and often hilarious) footnotes, helpful definitions of archaic language, enlightening end-of-chapter questions, a delightful re-telling in the Appendix, and a classy printing all contribute to the readability and accessibility of this edition. Toby J. Sumpter provides more than just an excellent annotation and edition of an important but often inaccessible text. He serves as a merry travel guide for our middle and high schoolers who would rather be found catching snakes than reading books."  ~ Rosaria Butterfield, author of The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert

"Edmund Spenser (1559-99) has earned the title 'the poet's poet' because of the high poetry of his epic and because so many great poets, including Milton, Dryden, Tennyson, and Keats, cut their poetic teeth on The Faerie Queene. The hero of Book II is Sir Guyon, the knight of Temperance. But do not let that throw you. This is not a poem about teetotalism. As C. S. Lewis puts it, The Faerie Queene 'demands of us a child's love of marvels and dread of bogies, a boy's thirst for adventures, a young man's passions for physical beauty.' Following in the wake of Roy Maynard's Fierce Wars and Faithful Loves, Toby Sumpter's notes are insightful and humorous—making this great Christian epic poem accessible for modern readers. The Elfin Knight makes an excellent choice as a homeschool or classroom text." -Jayson Grieser, Fellow of Humanities, New Saint Andrews College

"The poem is a great palace, but the door into it is so low that you must stoop to go in. No prig can be a Spenserian. It is of course much more than a fairy tale, but unless we enjoy it as a fairy tale first of all, we shall not really care for it." -C.S. Lewis

excellent pillows i bought two sets!!
Size: Firm Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
I ordered these for my son who has neck issues and has gone through so many pillows trying to find one that he liked. They’re heavy, so i was worried that they might be “too” heavy to be able to sleep on comfortably, so I ordered a second set, one firmer than the other (just in case) and gave him a set for Xmas and he loved the first set so much without even trying the less firm ones.He also needs the cooling factor and these offered that, too. They are filled with pieces of memory foam (tons of it) and each pillow can be modified by removing some of the foam. The covers are beautiful, high quality fabric with a zipper so ts easy to remove or replace the foam pieces. The size is perfect and they keep their shape. I kept the second set i ordered rather than returning them and i love the pillows. I actually modified two by removing some of the foam pieces. I kept the foam pieces in a zippered pillow protector and i can always adjust mine when or if i need to. 1000% love these.

The Perfect Firm Pillow l
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
It is everything it claims to be, cool, comfortable and strong. I got this for my husband first, he loves it and then got one for my son, he uses it to support his knees and has been sleeping much better since then. They both needed a firm pillow that is not super soft, firm but not achy. Finally found the perfect one.

Soft,comfortable and great quality!
Size: 26 x 26 inches, Style: 2 Pack
I’m very happy with these pillows! They are soft, comfortable, and provide great support without being too firm or too flat. I also appreciate that they’re hypoallergenic, which is a huge plus. They fluffed up nicely and have held their shape well after use. Great quality for the price and they made a noticeable difference in comfort. Definitely recommend!
