eBook: Antea, Jana, Robert a Cyril se vůbec nehněvali, že se jejich rodina přestěhovala ze začouzeného Londýna na venkov. Bílý dům se jim líbil, a navíc si kousek od něj mohli hrát ve starém pískovém lomu. Dokonce jim nevadilo ani to, že s sebou všude musí brát brášku Mrně. Představte si, co děti při jedné z výprav v pískovně našly. Z díry na ně vykouklo cosi něco hnědého a huňatého a tlustého. Oči to mělo na stopkách jako hlemýžď, uši jako netopýr, tělíčko pavoučí a nožičky a ručičky jako opička. Srst se tomu ježila jako kočce, když se chystal k boji. Aby ne, když ho děti probudily z tisíciletého spánku... Nestárnoucí příběh Edith Nesbitové vychází jako druhý svazek edice Knihovna pro děti 21. století.

Frank and Mirjam Pressler, the world's most famous diary and 'one of the greatest books of the century'. '12th June, 1942: I hope I will be able to confide everything to you, as I have never been able to confide in anyone, and I hope you will be a great source of comfort and support.'

Rilke's powerfully touching letters to an aspiring young poet At the start of the twentieth century, Rainer Maria Rilke wrote a series of letters to a young officer cadet, advising him on writing, love, sex, suffering, and the nature of advice itself. These profound and lyrical letters have since become hugely influential for generations of writers and artists of all kinds, including Lady Gaga and Patti Smith. With honesty, elegance, and a deep understanding of the loneliness that often comes with being an artist, Rilke's letters are an endless source of inspiration and comfort. Lewis Hyde's new introduction explores the context in which these letters were written and how the author embraced his isolation as a creative force. This edition also includes Rilke's later work The Letter from the Young Worker .
