Эта остросюжетная повесть высмеивает ребячий конформизм.

Новая повесть известного детского писателя касается остросовременных вопросов нравственного воспитания сегодняшних подростков. В повести разоблачается явление, свойственное детскому коллективу, которое называется стадным чувством. Боясь оказаться белой вороной среди окружающих, подростки подчас неспособны противопоставить свое мнение мнению пусть неправого, но большинства. В увлекательной форме автор показывает, насколько этот детский конформизм может быть опасен.Повесть сатирическая, остросюжетная.

Что самое главное для детей? Игра и тайна! А если это взрослые, опасные игры и тайны — тут уже пацана за уши не оттащишь. И с гордостью носят эти пострелята прозвище, полученное от взрослых за шустрость, ум и бесстрашие.Обо всём этом и не только в книге.

Follow your hearts. They will lead you home.Leaf-bare has fallen once more, threatening all cats with hunger and cold. Meanwhile, the message from the spirit-cats remains the same: in order to survive, they must grow and spread like the Blazing Star. And they must hurry.Clear Sky is certain that the only way forward is for all cats to band together again, but few are willing to ally with him--and Gray Wing and Thunder can barely look him in the eyes. Tall Shadow is determined to establish a new camp in the pine forest. River Ripple is content near the water. And Wind Runner has made her own home on the moor. The time has now come for all cats to decide where they will live—and where their allegiances truly lie.

A collection of short stories by the author of Madensky Square reveals the writer’s ability to write funny and erudite historical fiction.From Publishers WeeklyKnown for her neatly fashioned romance fiction, Ibbotson (Madensky Square) here collects 19 decorous stories of love gained and lost. With settings that range from the early 1990s to the present day, they generally feature surprise endings, some of them sadly contrived. In the title story, Max, a lawyer and confirmed bachelor in pre-WW I Vienna, attends the opera, where Helene, a singer of Wagnerian heft, is hurt in an onstage accident. She hires Max to file suit; they marry; later, Max takes a mistress. On his wife’s death he is free to marry his paramour, but Helene’s will dictates otherwise — she knew that forbidden fruit is sweetest. The London grocer in “Doushenka” is obsessed by Russia. Traveling to St. Petersburg, he falls in love with a young ballerina, but their relationship is ended by his sacrifice on her behalf, and for the rest of his life he must be content with the memories of his Great Love. A Great Love is the essential element in these old-fashioned tales, of which “Sidi” is the most celebratory-and blatantly sentimental. Eschewing the angst and alienation discussed in much contemporary fiction, Ibbotson offers leisurely details of a more genteel era whose passing she obviously laments. Her stories, however, are oversweet and ultimately cloying.From Library JournalWomen who enjoy romantic fiction will enjoy these heartwarming stories, first published in Great Britain in 1984. Ibbotson concentrates on the infinite variety of Great Love-its discovery, development, recognition, loss, and denouement. Her characters, males and females of all ages and professions, are frequently seen during the Christmas season and in prewar Vienna and Russia. In many stories, people find and lose each other-often with an O. Henry twist. Ibbotson, a winner of the Romantic Novelists Association award, writes charmingly about love, forgiveness, loss, and happiness. Highly recommended.Ellen R. Cohen, Rockville, Md.

The legendary jug sits amid this love, heartbreak, and hilarity as each family member works to acquire the heirloom. But on the night that the eccentric matriarch's wishes are to be revealed, both families find the biggest surprise of all.

Der Weg ist das Ziel. Falls es der karthagische Feldherr Hannibal darauf angelegt haben sollte, sich im Gedächtnis der Menschheit festzusetzen, hätte er jedenfalls keine bessere Methode wählen können: Einfach mit einer riesigen Armee die Alpen überqueren, allen Schwierigkeiten und Gefahren zum Trotz. Tausende Pferde, Esel und Wagen über holprige Pfade zerren. Und, um dem Ganzen die Krone aufzusetzen, auch noch 37 graue Kolosse mitschleppen, die im Hochgebirge nun wirklich nichts verloren haben: Kampfelefanten, die Panzer der Antike.Illustrationen Gerhard GoßmannÜbersetzung aus dem Russischen von Lieselotte Remane

Dear Mr. Birkway,Here it is: my summer journal. As you can see, I got a little carried away.The problem is this, though. I don’t want you to read it.Remember Mary Lou Finney from Walk Two Moons? Here’s her complete, secret journal!Mary Lou Finney is less than excited about her assignment to keep a journal over the summer. Boring! Then cousin Carl Ray comes to stay with her family, and what starts out as the dull dog days of summer quickly turns into the wildest roller-coaster ride of all time. How was Mary Lou supposed to know what would happen with Carl Ray and the ring? Or with her boy-crazy best friend Beth Ann? Or with (sigh) the permanently pink Alex Cheevey?Suddenly a boring school project becomes a record of the most exciting, incredible, unbelievable summer of Mary Lou’s life. But what if her teacher actually does read her journal?

Adam and Thomas is the story of two nine-year-old Jewish boys who survive World War II by banding together in the forest. They are alone, visited only furtively, every few days by Mina, a mercurial girl who herself has found refuge from the war by living with a peasant family. She makes secret journeys and brings the boys parcels of food at her own risk.Adam and Thomas must learn to survive and do. They forage and build a small tree house, although it's more like a bird's nest. Adam's family dog, Miro, manages to find his way to him, to the joy of both boys. Miro brings the warmth of home with him. Echoes of the war are felt in the forest. The boys meet fugitives fleeing for their lives and try to help them. They learn to disappear in moments of danger. And they barely survive winter's harshest weather, but when things seem to be at their worst, a miracle happens.

Jest to pierwsza część baśniowej trylogii Jana Brzechwy – arcydzieło, do przeczytania którego nikogo nie trzeba zachęcać. Tytułową Akademię, położoną w ogromnym parku pełnym jarów i wąwozów, otacza wysoki mur, w którym jedna obok drugiej mieszczą się żelazne furtki, zamknięte na srebrne kłódeczki, a każda z nich to drzwi do innej bajki… Wraz z Panem Kleksem – niezwykłym nauczycielem i wynalazcą – bohaterowie opowieści odwiedzają baśniowe królestwa i przeżywają niewiarygodne przygody, a z każdej wyprawy wracają mądrzejsi.
