Výtvarný klenot – podobenství o porozumění a toleranci Magický příběh o síle slov a o tom, že být jiný vůbec neznamená být špatný „Vrána ho zahlédla jako první. Podivného bílého tvora, kterého temné vlny unášely ke břehu. Nepodobal se ničemu, co zvířata z divokého lesa kdy viděla.“ Ve chvíli, kdy mladý lední medvěd na své rozpouštějící se kře dopluje k pevnině, způsobí tím mezi divokými zvířaty naprostou paniku. Nikdo neví, co je zač a jak se tam dostal. S jistotou ví ale jedno. Bojí se ho. Ve svém domově by se ale neměl nikdo bát! Od ostatních zvířat se tvor liší prakticky ve všem – je celý bílý, mohutný a při běhu vydává děsivé zvuky. Má také jednu zálibu, které ostatní zvířata nerozumí. Sbírá roztodivně barevné listí a pokrývá si jím kožich. Podle spadaného listí mu proto začali říkat Pady. Taky ale proto, že si mnozí z nich přáli, aby vypadl zpátky tam, odkud přišel. Nikdo si však neuvědomuje, že on tam nechce být. Že tam být musí. Jediné, po čem touží, je vrátit se za svou medvědí rodinou do zemí věčného ledu, ale prostě neví, jak na to. Po několika jeho marných pokusech za rodinou doplavat, zvířatům dojde, že si s Padym budou muset promluvit. Nebude trvat dlouho, aby všem došlo, že být jiný vůbec neznamená být špatný. Jen díky společnému úsilí se totiž Padyho návrat domů může povést. V příběhu ledního medvěda Padyho který odkazuje na nesnáze ledních medvědů v měnícím se podnebí, ilustrátorka Sandra Dieckmannová upřímně vypráví o pomoci neznámým a ukazuje, že jak ve světě zvířat, tak ve světě lidí by se mezi jednotlivci neměly dělat rozdíly.

Silný příběh, poetický text, okouzlující ilustrace. Dole v údolí sedala vrána k vráně, medvěd rybařil s medvědem a lišák hrál na housle liškám. Jejich písně a smích se pokojně nesly korunami stromů… dokud se jednoho dne neobjevil pes. Zvířata žijí pohromadě v údolí, sice v míru, ale ne tak docela spolu… dokud se jednoho dne neobjeví pes. Spolyká, co může, a nikdo ho nedokáže zastavit. Celý jejich svět se ocitne ve tmě a zvířata nemají jinou možnost, než spojit síly a začít znovu. Působivá obrázková kniha spisovatelky a ilustrátorky Sandry Dieckmann (v češtině dříve vyšla kniha Pady, 2018) hýří barvami a vzory a vypráví silný příběh o důležitosti přátelství a solidarity v těžkých časech.

Between the Stops is a sort of a memoir, my sort. It s about a bus trip really, because it s my view from the Number 12 bus (mostly top deck, the seat at the front on the right), a double-decker that plies its way from Dulwich, in South East London where I was living, to where I sometimes work at the BBC in the heart of the capital. It s not a sensible way to write a memoir at all, probably, but it s the way things pop into your head as you travel, so it s my way.From London facts including where to find the blue plaque for Una Marson, the first black woman programme maker at the BBC , to discovering the best Spanish coffee under Southwick railway arches; from a brief history of lady gangsters at Elephant and Castle to memories of climbing Mount Sinai and, at the request of a fellow traveller, reading aloud the Ten Commandments; from the story behind Pissarro s painting of Dulwich Station to performing in Footlights with Emma Thompson; from painful memories of being sent to Coventry at a British boarding school to thinking about how Wombells Travelling Circus of 1864 haunts Peckham Rye and anecdotes about Prince Charles, Monica Lewinsky and Grayson Perry; from Bake-Off antics to stories of a real and lasting friendship with John McCarthy, to the importance of family and the daunting navigation of the Zambezi River in her father s canoe; this Sandi Toksvig-style memoir is, as one would expect and hope, packed full of surprise. A funny and moving trip through memories, musings and the many delights on the number 12 route, Between the Stops is also an inspiration to us all to get off our phones, to look up and to talk to each other because as Sandi says: some of the greatest trips lie on our own doorstep .

Magic takes many forms. The ancient Egyptians explained the night by suggesting that the goddess Nut swallowed the sun. The Vikings believed a rainbow was the gods bridge to earth. These are magical, extraordinary tales. But there is another kind of magic, and it lies in the exhilaration of discovering the real answers to these questions. It is the magic of reality - science.Packed with inspiring explanations of space, time and evolution, laced with humour and clever thought experiments, The Magic of Reality explores a stunningly wide range of natural phenomena. What is stuff made of? How old is the universe? What causes tsunamis? Who was the first man, or woman? This is a page-turning, inspirational detective story that not only mines all the sciences for its clues but primes the reader to think like a scientist too.Richard Dawkins elucidates the wonders of the natural world to all ages with his inimitable clarity and exuberance in a text that will enlighten and inform for generations to come.

A fascinating and highly original history of medieval magic told through twenty key illuminated manuscripts  Medieval Europe was preoccupied with magic. From the Carolingian Empire to Renaissance Italy and Tudor England, great rulers, religious figures, and scholars sought to harness supernatural power. They tried to summon spirits, predict the future, and even prolong life. Alongside science and religion, magic lay at the very heart of culture.  In this beautifully illustrated account, Anne Lawrence-Mathers explores the medieval fascination with magic through twenty extraordinary illuminated manuscripts. These books were highly sought after, commissioned by kings and stored in great libraries. They include an astronomical compendium made for Charlemagne⠙s son; The Sworn Book of Honorius, used by a secret society of trained magicians; and the highly influential Picatrix. This vivid new history shows how attitudes to magic and science changed over the medieval period⠔and produced great works of art as they did so.
