Marta Guśniowska - Marvin

Karolina ObszyńskaMarvin, czyli jak unikać umierania.Wystarczy nie chodzić do lekarzy. W końcu oni zawsze coś znajdą. Tak twierdzi Marvin, dinozaur, który zrodził się spod pióra Marty Guśniowskiej i nagle, ni stąd, ni zowąd, zupełnie niechcący dowiedział się, że najczęstszą przyczyną umierania dinozaurów jest wyginięcie.Bezlitosna statystyka zmusiła Marvina do natychmiastowego podjęcia decyzji o życiu „tu i teraz”. I tak pocieszny dinozaur, dotąd spędzający wolne chwile niemal wyłącznie na jedzeniu lodów, zapragnął mieć przyjaciela. Przypadkiem znalazł aż dwóch i z tego przypadku zrodziło się najbardziej egzotyczne trio świata – dinozaur, żółw i motyl. Odtąd przyjaciele będą podróżować, by znaleźć sposób na pokonanie strachu, samotności i śmierci. Różnice gatunkowe między Marvinem, Finnem i Ulissesem, a także wynikające z nich różnice osobowościowe, stworzą nietuzinkowe przypadki i pozwolą szerzej spojrzeć na znane nam wszystkim sytuacje. Marta Guśniowska prowadzi tę historię w typowy dla siebie sposób – osadza ją w konwencji komedii, doprawiając sporą ilością żartów budowanych na dosłownym rozumieniu języka. Dlatego Marvin, gdy mówi, że „budzi się w doskonałej formie”, ma na myśli formę do keksu, w której sypia, a gdy „zasięga języka” to faktycznie wyciąga łapki do siedzącego wysoko na bibliotecznej półce czerwonego języka. Charakterystyczny styl autorki sprawia, że utwór czyta się szybko i przyjemnie, tu i ówdzie napotykając grę słów, która odbiera poważnym tematom trochę niepotrzebnej powagi.Historia Marvina to pełna wrażliwości i ciepła lekcja oswajania cierpienia, samotności i odchodzenia. Forma jej podania łagodzi trudny temat, a niezwykli bohaterowie czynią tę historię jeszcze bardziej fantastyczną. Dziecko nauczy się z niej o wartości przyjaźni, pomagania i doceniania chwil, które bardzo szybko pryskają. Co więcej, jest to po prostu ciekawa historia przygodowa, w której bohaterowie napotykają na mnóstwo zaskakujących, nieoczywistych przypadków. Podoba się na przykład moment spotkania z Diabłem – dla tych, którzy się go obawiają, to gotowy poradnik zbicia reprezentanta złej mocy z pantałyku. Z moralizatorskim przesłaniem i dawką dobrego humoru Guśniowskiej idą w parze ilustracje autorstwa Roberta Romanowicza. Jego pomysł na charakterystyczne zobrazowanie nie tylko trzech głównych, ale też wszystkich pobocznych postaci, sprawdził się doskonale. Mamy kolorową, precyzyjnie zilustrowaną bajkę, w której na pyszczkach bohaterów widać każdą najdrobniejszą emocję, choć pozostają one wciąż bardzo umownymi wizjami dinozaura, żółwia i motyla. No i postać Diabła, która sama w sobie jest już dość fascynująca, dodatkowo z pomocą Romanowicza zyskuje nieoczywisty, nieco prześmiewczy sznyt. Przygarnijcie „Marvina”. To w końcu ostatnia szansa, by poznać tak blisko jakiegokolwiek dinozaura.

Chata v horách - Ruth Ware

KAŽDÝ MÁ CO ZÍSKAT, CO SKRÝVAT A CO ZTRATIT…Strávit týden v zasněžených horách se zdá jako skvělý nápad, který by neměla pokazit ani blížící se vánice.

Pokud ovšem těmi lidmi není deset spolupracovníků jedné firmy…Když Topher St. Clair-Bridges, jeden ze zakladatelů úspěšného londýnského start-upu Snoop, zorganizuje pro zaměstnance týdenní pobyt ve francouzských Alpách, firemní akce probíhá naprosto běžným způsobem. Ovšem jen do chvíle, než spoluzakladatelka Snoopu Eva van den Bergová naruší všeobecnou pohodu, když se snaží protlačit sice lukrativní, ale spornou nabídku na odkup firmy jinou společností.Sněhová bouře není nic v porovnání s tou, která se chystá propuknout uvnitř chaty. A když návštěvníkům odřízne spojení se světem lavina, mizerná nálada a napětí se rychle mění v ponorkovou nemoc. A zatímco s každou další hodinou bez vyhlídky na záchranu roste panika, teplota v domě bez elektřiny klesá a účastníci akce jeden po druhém umírají…Moderní detektivka v té nejlepší tradici „královny zločinu“ Agathy Christie od autorky bestsellerů Žena z kajuty č. 10 a Všude kolem černý les.Číslo vydania 1Jazyky českýPočet strán 368Dátum uvedenia titulu 2022-10-17Rozmery 211x155x35Hmotnosť 580gTypKnihy viazané

The Complete Language of Herbs 8 - S. Theresa Dietz

The Complete Language of Herbs is a comprehensive encyclopedia providing the meanings, powers, facts, and folklore for over 500 herbs and spices. Along with a beautiful visual depiction, each entry provides the herb or spice's scientific and common names, characteristics, and historic meanings and powers from mythology, medieval legends, folklore, and flower poetry. Did you know that allspice can be added to herbal mixtures to attract money or luck? Or that sprinkling arrowroot at the doors of your home will keep guests' negative energy from entering? Reaching the height of popularity during the Victorian era, floriographies-dictionaries of symbolic flower meanings-were an amusing pastime and art to subtly communicate unspoken emotions.To complement the success of The Complete Language of Flowers, author S. Theresa Dietz has scoured historic sources and compiled an equally beautiful compendium in The Complete Language of Herbs, revealing the secrets and powers of hundreds of common and forgotten herbs and spices from around the world. Together with stunning full-color illustrations and two indexes, one for searching by common herb and spice name and the other organized by meaning, this beautiful reference is a must-have for gardeners, chefs, party planners, and food enthusiasts.Elegantly designed and beautifully illustrated, the Complete Illustrated Encyclopedia series offers comprehensive, display-worthy references on a range of intriguing topics, including birthday astrology, dream interpretation, astrological self-care practices, techniques for harnessing the power of dreams, and the stories behind signs and symbols.

Life and Death of Krishnamurti

J Krishnamurti (1896-1986) was one of the most important spiritual leaders of his time. Discovered by the Theosophist as a boy in India, he was groomed by them as the new Messiah, a role he rejected when he set out independently on his own spiritual quest. Travelling the world, lecturing and teaching, he acquired an enormous following, including many eminent statesmen and intellectuals. As one of Krishnamurti's closest friends and devotees, Mary Lutyens is uniquely qualified to write his biography. Indeed, she has written three previous volumes on him, but only after his death in 1986 did she feel able to produce this book, bringing the life and philosophy of this fascinating and complex man into true perspective.

Střet hodnot - Filip Horák

Kniha analyzuje funkce čtyř stěžejních ústavněprávních konstruktů, důstojnosti, rovnosti, svobody a spravedlnosti, v právní argumentaci. Pomáhá osvětlit, jakým způsobem by soudy měly (a také neměly) tyto konstrukty argumentačně používat.Konkrétně rozkrývá některé zásadní problémy spojené s hybridizací a axiomatizací funkcí těchto konstruktů a navrhuje, jak se těmto problémům vyhýbat či alespoň minimalizovat jejich negativní důsledky pro kvalitu, přesvědčivost, logickou koherenci a předvídatelnost právní argumentace.Kniha je určena nejen právním vědcům a teoretikům, nýbrž i právním praktikům, především soudcům.

Planetárium

Komplet z roku 1977 nepochybně patří do zlatého archivu čs. populární hudby. K vynikajícímu pěveckému výkonu Václava Neckáře nutno připočítat jeho tradiční dar využít všech textových nuancí. Měl z čeho vybírat: Michael Prostějovský, Zdeněk Rytíř, Vladimír Čort nebo Jiřina Fikejzová mu poskytli mimořádná východiska. Bylo ovšem co textovat, když muzika Oty Petřiny, Petra Jandy nebo Jana Neckáře k odpoutání se od civilnosti vybízela. Formě koncepčního dvojalba odpovídají také aranže, využívající netradičních postupů, vyplňující i pauzy mezi jednotlivými skladbami zvukovými předěly. Nejde o to, ab

Inheritance: A Pick-The-Path Experience Arnold Daniel

You take your seat in the theatre. You are given a remote control. The play begins. An urban couple are on a getaway to visit her father at his vast rural estate. But when they arrive, they find him missing and a local Indigenous man staying there instead. They ask him to leave ... and with an anonymous click of your remote, you choose what happens next.

With humour, suspense, and a race against time, Inheritance is an interactive stage play - with over fifty possible variations - that thrusts you into the middle of a land dispute and asks you to work it

Heaven Whitney Emerson

A finalist for the Believer Book AwardEmerson Whitney writes, "Really, I can't explain myself without making a mess." What follows is that mess-electrifying, gorgeous, defiant.At Heaven's center, Whitney seeks to understand their relationship to their mother and grandmother, those first windows into womanhood and all its consequences. Whitney retraces a roving youth in deeply observant, psychedelic prose-all the while folding in the work of thinkers like Judith Butler, Donna Haraway, and C. Riley Snorton-to engage transness and the breathing, morphing nature of selfhood.An expansive examination of what makes us up, Heaven wonders what role our childhood plays in who we are. Can we escape the discussion of causality? Is the story of our body just ours? With extraordinary emotional force, Whitney sways

Self-Talk in Sport Latinjak Alexander T.

Athletes are naturally exposed to significant psychological challenges in sports, but do not wait helplessly for the assistance of sports psychologists or trainers. Instead, they practise one form or another of self-regulation. Self-talk in Sport explores one such self-regulatory strategy: self-talk, the inner voice that accompanies every human being throughout their lives. Over time, research has revealed many secrets of self-talk in sport, though many others remain unveiled. This book offers you the opportunity to discover the multiple identities of our self-talk, how the "inner coach" serves as a rational counterpart to the irrational self, and what we need to do to develop our inner voice to reach its maximum self-regulatory potential.There is a general need for concrete interventions in sport, exercise, and performance psychology. In addition, the autonomous

Bug Week: & Other Stories Beautrais Airini

A science educator in domestic chaos fetishises Scandinavian furniture and champagne flutes. A group of white-collar deadbeats attend a swinger's party in the era of drunk Muldoon. A pervasive smell seeps through the walls of a German housing block. A seabird performs at an open-mic night.

From 1960s Wellington to post-Communist Germany, Bug Week traverses the weird, the wry and the grotesque in a story collection of human

Juneteenth: Our Day of Freedom Wyeth Sharon Dennis

Some call it Freedom Day; some call it Emancipation Day; some call it Juneteenth. Learn more about this important holiday that celebrates the end of chattel slavery in the United States in this Step 3 History Reader.On June 19, 1865, two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, a group of enslaved men, women, and children in Texas gathered. Order Number 3 was read, proclaiming that they were no longer enslaved--they were free. People danced, wept tears of joy, and began to plan their new lives. Juneteenth became an annual celebration that is observed by more and more Americans with parades, picnics, family gatherings, and reflection on the words of historical figures, to mark the day when freedom truly rang for all.Step 3 Readers feature engaging characters in easy-to-follow plots and popular topics--for children who are ready to read on their
