The Unmapped Chronicles will not only leave children entertained, but will also empower them to battle climate change and environmental issues. 'Adventures are unpredictable and often terribly badly behaved – a bit like pickled onions if you’ve ever tried to fork one on a plate – but they have a way of unlocking people and turning them upside down so that all the astonishing things fizzing around inside them start to tumble out…’ Eleven-year-old Casper Tock hates risks, is allergic to adventures and shudders at the thought of unpredictable events. So, it comes as a nasty shock to him when he accidentally stumbles into Rumblestar, an Unmapped Kingdom full of magical beasts. All Casper wants is to find a way home, but Rumblestar is in trouble. An evil harpy called Morg is sending her followers, the Midnights, into the kingdom to wreak havoc and pave the way for her to steal the Unmapped magic for herself. But Casper cannot turn a blind eye because the future of his own world, he discovers, is bound up with that of the Unmapped Kingdoms. And so, together with Utterly Thankless, a girl who hates rules and is allergic to behaving, and her miniature dragon, Arlo, Casper embarks upon an adventure full of cloud giants, storm ogres and drizzle hags. Can he, Utterly and Arlo, the unlikeliest of heroes, save the Unmapped Kingdoms and our world from the clutches of Morg and her Midnights?Live a life filled with adventure with Abi Elphinstone in this brand NEW series where a whole new world is waiting to be discovered...'Imaginative, adventurous and wonderful' Robin Stevens, author of A Murder Most Unladylike series 'The Unmapped Chronicles series is irresistible' Lauren St John, author of The White Giraffe'Abi Elphinstone has created a complete world so believably and effortlessly, I can only marvel' Piers Torday, author of The Last Wild Trilogy 'Brimming with enchantment and adventure' Catherine Doyle, author of The Storm Keeper's Island‘Abi Elphinstone is proving to be a worthy successor to CS Lewis’ The TimesAlso by Abi Elphinstone:The DreamsnatcherThe Shadow KeeperThe Night SpinnerSky Song Winter Magic (anthology)Everdark (World Book Day)JungledropThe Crackledawn DragonEverdark

Bring the Outside In - Abi Dare
Award-winning interiors blogger Abi Dare, author of The Soft Minimalist Home, offers a new take on biophilic design using organic materials, colors and textures to bring the outside in.Nature provides ample inspiration for our homes, and a biophilic approach to design has been shown to enhance our mental and physical wellbeing. But there is more to it than adding lots of plants. Here, Abi Dare explores how to create an inviting home that makes subtle references to the natural world. The book is divided into six sections: color, materials and texture, shape and pattern, light and dark, layout and view, and finishing touches. In each, Abi provides practical tips and presents inspiring case studies, from a city apartment in Rotterdam to a family home in London and a farmhouse in the West Country. Palettes go beyond green, incorporating terracottas, pinks, peaches, blues, and ochers. Wood, stone, plaster, and linen offer a tactile experience, whether sleek and modern or rough-hewn and rustic. Soft curves, flowing lines, and imperfect forms can be used to mimic nature, tempering straight lines and sharp angles. Windows let in sunlight and frame our views of the outside world. Throughout, Abi highlights that biophilic design is not just an abstract theory, but an accessible concept that can make a big difference to our homes and lives.

Audiokniha: DRAZÍ DOBRODRUHOVÉ, VÍTEJTE V NEZMAPOVANÉM SVĚTĚ KOUZEL A DOBRODRUŽSTVÍ! Jak známo, dobrodružství jsou velmi nepředvídatelná a občas mohou dopadnout i špatně. Navíc dokážou lidi úplně změnit. Své by vám o tom mohl vyprávět jedenáctiletý KAŠPAR TOCK. Na dobrodružství je doslova alergický a při pomyšlení na nepředvídatelné události mu běhá mráz po zádech. Proto když narazí na tajemnou zemi Hvězdidar, Nezmapované království plné kouzel, zažije nepříjemný šok. Kašpar se chce za každou cenu dostat zpátky domů. Zjistí však, že HVĚZDIDAR má vážné problémy. Zlá harpyje MORGA touží získat tamní magii jen sama pro sebe. A tak když Kašpar narazí na DOČISTU NEVDĚČNOU a jejího miniaturního draka ARLA, vydá se spolu s nimi na dobrodružnou cestu plnou oblačných obrů, hromohnátů a mžibab. Podaří se těm nejnepravděpodobnějším hrdinům na světě zachránit Hvězdidar i ostatní Nezmapovaná království? Život je jeden velký trdlipád... Abi Elphinstoneová vyrůstala ve Skotsku a většinu svého dětství strávila tím, že si stavěla bunkry, schovávala se na stromech a nespoutaně pobíhala po horských údolích. Poté, co byla ze svého stromového bunkru vylákána, studovala angličtinu na Bristolské univerzitě a potom pracovala jako učitelka v Africe, Berkshiru a Londýně. Kromě Kroniky Nezmapovaných království je například také autorkou knih Sky Song (Nebeská píseň) a The Dreamsnatcher Trilogy (Zloději snů), které v češtině zatím nevyšly. Když zrovna nepíše, dobrovolničí pro charitativní organizaci Beanstalk, beseduje na školách, cestuje po světě a od polárního kruhu až k horám Mongolska vyhlíží nové příběhy.

Audiokniha: Máte rádi své sourozence? Dvojčata Foxana a Fixl jsou spíš nepřátelé, než kamarádi. Soupeří, kdo přijde s geniálním obchodním plánem, zdědí rodinný majetek a vyhne se vyhnanství mezi tučňáky. Jenže potom se nečekaně ocitnou v kouzelném království Praleskáp a začnou zjišťovat, že sucho, které dlouhé měsíce sužuje svět, asi nějak souvisí s harpyjí Morgou a její nezřízenou touhou po moci. A také že na světě jsou i důležitější věci než peníze a ostré lokty. Dobrodružná výprava je zavede do světélkující džungle plné zlatých panterů, oblizní, svištiperů a zakletých chrámů. Dokážou pro jednou spolupracovat a porazit Morgu i s její černou magií? Abi Elphinstoneová vyrůstala ve Skotsku a většinu svého dětství strávila tím, že si stavěla bunkry, schovávala se na stromech a nespoutaně pobíhala po horských údolích. Poté, co byla ze svého stromového bunkru vylákána, studovala angličtinu na Bristolské univerzitě a potom pracovala jako učitelka v Africe, Berkshiru a Londýně. Kromě Kroniky Nezmapovaných království je například také autorkou knih Sky Song (Nebeská píseň) a The Dreamsnatcher Trilogy (Zloději snů), které v češtině zatím nevyšly. Když zrovna nepíše, dobrovolničí pro charitativní organizaci Beanstalk, beseduje na školách, cestuje po světě a od polárního kruhu až k horám Mongolska vyhlíží nové příběhy. David Novotný jako herec začínal v Jihočeském divadle v Českých Budějovicích. V letech 1998–2016 byl členem souboru Dejvického divadla (Cena Alfreda Radoka 2010). Je jedním z nejobsazovanějších herců své generace, výrazné role měl ve filmech Non Plus Ultras, Pravidla lži, O rodičích a dětech, Hodinový manžel, Miss Hanoi a Případ mrtvého nebožtíka. Diváci ho dále znají např. ze snímků Tmavomodrý svět, Karamazovi, Křídla Vánoc, Díra u Hanušovic, Hastrman, Vlastníci, z trilogie Zahradnictví i z TV seriálů: nejnověji díky komediální mepopeji Špunti na cestě, krimi Místo zločinu České Budějovice a dvěma řadám rodičovského dramatu Kukačky.

The Soft Minimalist Home - Abi Dare
Award-winning interiors blogger Abi Dare of These Four Walls reveals a softer, more relaxed approach to minimalism that will enhance your wellbeing and simplify your home.Many of us yearn to turn our homes into calming sanctuaries, but there are still misconceptions of minimalist decor as sterile, unattainable, and devoid of personality. In her first book, interiors stylist and writer Abi Dare busts the myths, demonstrating that minimalist spaces can be warm, welcoming, and as individual as their inhabitants. The Soft Minimalist Home shows how a diverse range of people have created minimalist havens that reflect their tastes and tell their stories. An apartment in London brings unexpected pops of colour, a 1920s Dutch townhouse is filled with light, and a family home in Sweden takes its cues from nature. These home tours are interspersed with practical advice on topics such as choosing a palette, optimizing storage, and adding coziness through texture. Throughout, Abi guides readers to harness the mood-boosting power of minimalist decor for themselves, proving that less really is more.

The Spirituality Gap - Abi Millar
''A beguiling exploration of what contemporary spiritual practices might offer to a world that’s lost its religion'' Dr Sharon Blackie, author of If Women Rose Rooted Abi Millar is looking for something. She grew up in an evangelical church, but after she lost her faith, she found herself searching for spirituality in other places. Torn between the logical part of her brain and the part that secretly believes in magic, and in the wake of a great loss, she wondered whether her crisis of faith was part of a larger story: at a time when more and more people in the Western world are moving away from organised religion, what does spirituality look like?The Spirituality Gap follows Abi as she receives a shamanic healing, drinks ayuahuasca, delves into astrology, experiences an awakening in a lake, and attends an atheist church. Written with great warmth, curiosity and humour, it explores our post-religious world from the perspective of someone who is neither a ‘spiritual but not religious’ hippie nor an angry atheist. Throughout, she asks: how can we embrace ritual in our own lives even if we are wary of religion?

Sustainable Materials without the hot air - Jonathan Cullen, Julian Allwood
Now in its second edition, Sustainable Materials shows how we can greatly reduce the amount of material demanded and used in manufacturing, while still meeting everyone''s needs.Materials, transformed from natural resources into the buildings, equipment, vehicles and goods that underpin our remarkable lifestyle, are made with amazing efficiency. But our growing demand is not sustainable. Production of just five materials – steel, aluminium, paper, plastics and cement – accounts for 55% of industrial emissions, and demand for materials will double by 2050. Can we continue to live well but use less materials? So far people have considered the problem with only one eye open, hoping for a magic solution (such as carbon capture and storage). But with both eyes open we have a whole new set of options. Rather than making more materials, we can use them more wisely – with less material, keeping them for longer, re-using their parts and more. These options make a huge difference: we really could set up our children with a more sustainable life, without compromising our own. Sustainable Materials faces up to the impacts of making materials in the 21st century. Drawing on their experiences working with innovative materials as well as the facts and findings of their research, Julian Allwood and Jonathan Cullen provide an evidence-based vision of change that will allow us to make our future more sustainable. Packed with hundreds of colour photos and helpful graphs and diagrams, Sustainable Materials provides a thorough analysis of the problems that we face through wasteful attitudes and the growing demand for materials, as well as an evaluation of practical and achievable solutions for the future. The first edition of this optimistic and richly-informed book was listed as one of Bill Gate''s top reads in 2015, and was also chosen as an Outstanding Academic Title by ACRL Choice magazine. This up-to-date, revised edition is perfect for anyone with an interest in sustainability.

Sustainable Theatre: Theory, Context, Practice - Iphigenia Taxopoulou
How does the world of theatre and the performing arts intersect with the climate and environmental crisis? This timely book is the first comprehensive account of the sector’s response to the defining issue of our time.The book documents a sector in transition and presents theatre professionals, practitioners and organizations with a synthesis of information, knowledge and expertise to guide them to their own endorsement of sustainable thinking and practice. It is illustrated with inspiring case studies and interviews, from London’s National Theatre, to Sydney Theatre Company, to the Göteborg Opera and the American Repertory Theatre. These foreground the work of pioneering institutions and individual practitioners whose artistic ingenuity, creative activism and sense of public mission have given shape, content and purpose to what we can now call ‘sustainable theatre’.Spanning almost three decades, the book approaches the topic from multiple angles and through an international perspective, recording how climate and environmental concerns have been expressed in cultural policy, arts leadership and organizational ethics; in the greening of infrastructure and daily operations; in the individual and institutional practice of sustainable theatre-making; in performing arts education; and in touring practices and international collaboration. It investigates, too, how the climate crisis influences theatre as a story-teller – on stage and beyond.Written by a leading expert in the field of culture and environmental sustainability and distilling many years of research and hands-on experience, Sustainable Theatre: Theory, Context, Practice is intended to be relevant and useful to professionals involved in the theatre and performing arts sector in many different capacities: from policy-makers, arts leaders and managers to administrators, technicians, artists, scholars and educators.

The Yellow Kitchen - Margaux Vialleron
Expectation meets Julie and Julia, The Yellow Kitchen is a brilliant exploration of food, belonging and friendship. London, 2019. A yellow kitchen stands as a metaphor for the lifelong friendship between three women: Claude, the baker, goal-orientated Sophie and political Giulia. They chase love and careers; dreaming and consuming in the city, but always returning to the yellow kitchen to share a meal. That is, until a trip to Lisbon unravels unexplored desires between Claude and Sophie. Having sex is one thing, waking up the day after is the beginning of something new. Exploring the complexities of female friendship, The Yellow Kitchen is a hymn to the last year of London as we knew it and a celebration of the culture, the food and the rhythms we live by.Praise for The Yellow Kitchen: ‘Rich and thoroughly intoxicating, The Yellow Kitchen is a sensual journey into friendship, food and female sexuality, full of complex, fascinating characters and bold ideas. I loved it’ Rosie Walsh ‘A heady mix of politics, friendship, sex and food, poignant, provocative and utterly distinctive’ Paula Hawkins ‘An exquisite novel — beautifully rendered, powerfully told, and so deeply felt. I urge you to read this novel — you will never forget it’ Lucia Osborne-Crowley 'Mixing female friendship, romance, loss, redemption, and memorable meals, The Yellow Kitchen is the perfect recipe for a flavorful literary feast. With subtle dashes of wit and generous sprinklings of honesty, Margaux Vialleron has crafted a brave and tender tale' Kim Fay, author of Love & Saffron ‘The Yellow Kitchen is so warm and convivial in atmosphere, and its discussion of the politics of the UK and their impact very poignant. It portrayed beautifully the sense of adventure of being a certain age, with its rush and richness and emotional confusion, and I found it such a satisfying read’ Emily Itami, author of Fault Lines

Henry Moore's Sheep Sketchbook - Kenneth Clark, Henry Moore
In 1972, when the packing and crating for a major exhibition made it impossible for him to work in his sculpture studios, Henry Moore retreated to a small studio that looks out on a sheep meadow. Over the course of several months, as sheep were suckled and sheared, Moore produced this delightful flock of sketches and drawings. Sheep are as much a commonplace of the English countryside as hedgerows, but Moore looked at them afresh. Here are ewes nurturing their lambs, lambs playing in the meadow, and the swollen stateliness of sheep with full coats of wool. Many of the sketches evoke themes that are important in all Moore''s work. The depiction of a ewe and lamb, for instance, suggests the mother-and-child theme often evoked in Moore''s sculpture by a large form sheltering a smaller one. Henry Moore presented the sketchbook to his daughter, Mary. In this facsimile edition, first created under Moore''s personal supervision, Mary''s little lambs will charm anyone who sees these tender, vigorous drawings.

Principles of Sustainable Business - Eveline van Mil, Rob van Tulder
The basic function of companies is to add value to society. Profits are a means to an end, not an end in itself. The ability of companies to innovate, scale and invest provides them with a powerful base for positive change. But companies are also criticized for not contributing sufficiently to society’s grand challenges. An increasingly VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous) world creates serious governance gaps that not only require new ways of regulation, but also new ways of doing business. Can companies effectively contribute to sustainable development and confront society’s systemic challenges?Arguably the most important frame to drive this ambition was introduced and unanimously adopted in 2015: the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDG-agenda not only defines a holistic set of global goals and targets, but also foundational principles to guide meaningful action to their achievement by 2030. Multinational companies have signed up to the SDGs as the world’s long-term business plan. Realizing the SDGs provides a yearly $12 trillion investment and growth opportunity, while creating hundreds of millions of jobs in the process. But progress is too slow – witnessing society’s inability to deal with pressing human, ecological, economic and health crises – whilst the vast potential for societal value creation remains underutilized. This book provides a timely account of the systemic, strategic and operational challenges that need to be addressed to enhance the effectiveness of corporate involvement in society, by using the SDGs as the leading principles-based framework for actionable, powerful and transformative change.Principles of Sustainable Business is written for graduate and postgraduate (executive) students, policymakers and business professionals who want to understand the complex challenges of global sustainability. It shows how companies can design and implement SDG-relevant strategies at three levels: the macro level, to assess whether the SDGs present wicked problems or opportunities; the micro level, to develop and operationalize innovative business models, design new business cases and navigate organizational transition trajectories; and the meso level, to develop fit-for-purpose cross-sector partnering strategies. Principles of Sustainable Business presents innovative tools embedded in a coherent sequence of analytical frameworks that can be applied in courses for students, be put into practice by business professionals and used by action researchers to help companies contribute to the Decade of Action.
