{"product_id":"2940012741196","title":"The Elixir of Osiris - A Traveling Salesman's Darktime Tale (Children's Story)","description":"A town desperate for a solution to the drought that has plagued them for years finds hope in the Elixir of Osiris - a potion that will keep their crops watered for an entire year. But when a young girl tries to steal a cup of the magical elixir, she grows to an enormous size and accidentally lets loose a new threat that just might destroy the entire town! Find out how her courage, and the salesman’s quick wit, save the day!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat are the Traveling Salesman stories about?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDifferent from other children’s stories, the main character of the series, the Salesman, is never given a name, nor is he described physically. In fact, none of the characters in the stories are given names! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginating from the fantastical tales a father made up from thin air each night for his sons at bedtime, the Traveling Salesman is a mystical, magical wizard of sorts who uses his wits and wizardry to escape tight spots and help those in need. Each tale is a standalone story in its own right, but taken together they weave a rich and vibrant world inhabited by werewolves, witches, and magical creatures of every kind!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Salesman could be any shape or size (tall, short, etc.) or of any background…whatever the child imagines!  This distinctive style of writing allows children to imagine the characters as anyone they want!  Family members, people in their own communities or even classmates! A completely new way of telling children’s stories!  Ages 10 and up.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo learn more about this story and others in the series, please visit: www.darktimetales.com","brand":"Darktime Tales Publishing Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47079048282352,"sku":"2940012741196","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940012741196_p0.jpg?v=1763572136","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940012741196","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
