      • Leopold - Ploegsma - Condor

        Leopold was founded in 1923 and evolved into a children's-and young-adult publishing house in the 1950's. Leopoldestablishes a lot of collaborations with museums, different organizations and the government. The first children's book ever published is still in print: Johan Fabricius'Java Ho! The Adventures of Four Boys Amid Fire, Storm, and Shipwreck. Leopold hosts a lot of famous Dutch authors, for example the classic works of Tonke Dragt (The Letter for the King, The Secrets of the Wild Wood).Several popular brands are also published by Leopold, likeFrog(Max Velthuijs) andAlfie the Werewolf(Paul van Loon). The beautiful Leopold picture books by renowned illustrators like Annemarie van Haeringen, Wouter van Reek and Ingrid Godon are taking a flight due to the fantastic teamwork with museums. Not only classic authors and popular brands are a big part of Leopold. A younger generation of authors and illustrators is building a vast oeuvre. Books like Zeb.(Gideon Samson, Joren Joshua) andFright Night(Maren Stoffels) shake up the world of children's literature. Ploegsma has been part of the Dutch publishing scene for well over a hundred years. The publishing house was founded in 1905 by Johannes Ploegsma and has been specialising in children's books since the 1960's: adventurous and humorous fiction and non-fiction books for children of all ages. These include many classic titles, such as the books by Astrid Lindgren (Pippi Longstocking) and Arnold Lobel (Frog and Toad), as well as books by contemporary and very popular authors like Mirjam Oldenhave(Mister Twister), Marjon Hoffman (Flora), Yvon Jaspers (Tess and Tommy), Reggie Naus (The Pirates Next Door), Vivian den Hollander, Janny van der Molen and Caja Cazemier. Many of these authors have been translated. Even though a lot has changed the past hundred years, Ploegsma's love for beautiful books is still going strong.

        On the Move

        by Art studio Agrafka (Authors), Art studio Agrafka (Illustrators)

        The universe is always on the move: Nothing in it remains completely at rest. Movement is natural: The Earth, the water on it, the atmosphere, the continents, and all living organisms exist in a state of constant motion. We walk, run, jump, crawl, swim, and fly. We travel. This book is about movement and travel—not only by people, but also that of animals, plants, the wind, water, and our planet. It describes journeys for the purpose of trade and commerce, journeys for the purpose of pleasure and repose or for survival, as well as scientific expeditions and pilgrimages. It’s about migrations, maps, navigation, and, finally, about finding your own path. Travellers often hear questions associated with "where" and "where from:" "Where are you going?", "Where are you from?" This book is a visual and intellectual expedition through thousands of years of movement, in search of answers to these as well as many other questions related to movement.       From 6 to 9 years, 2896 words Rightsholders: Ivan Fedechko,  ivan.fedechko@starlev.com.ua

        by Taras Prokhasko, Mariana Prokhasko

        The third book in the mole series, How to Understand a Goat by Taras and Mariana Prokhasko, will please both children and adults who still remember what it is like to be a child. Only children can write letters to St. Nicholas, sincerely believing that they can ask for anything and get everything they want — from some tangerines to a flying ship. This ship, poetically named Metaphor, will take you together with Purry, Crawly and their friends on a sea journey. You can settle on an island and learn how to understand even... a goat.

        Modern European cinema and love

        by Richard Rushton

        Modern European cinema and love examines nine European directors whose films contain stories about romantic love and marriage. The directors are Jean Renoir, Ingmar Bergman, Alain Resnais, Michelangelo Antonioni, Agnès Varda, François Truffaut, Federico Fellini, Jean-Luc Godard and Éric Rohmer. The book approaches questions of love and marriage from a philosophical perspective, applying the ideas of authors such as Stanley Cavell, Leo Bersani, Luce Irigaray and Alain Badiou, while also tracing key concepts from Freudian psychoanalysis. Each of the filmmakers engages deeply with notions of modern love and marriage, often in positive ways, but also in ways that question the institutions of love, marriage and the 'couple'.

        I See That

        by Art studio Agrafka

        This is an educational picture book about sight from the creative studio Agrafka. It is about both things we can see with our own eyes and the mysterious, invisible to the human eye. This book is also about microscopes and telescopes that help us see incredibly small or extremely distant things. It explains that for better eyesight some people need glasses, while those who can’t see at all need a special system and symbols. By reading this book, you will learn how birds and animals see the world, how artists create optical illusions, and about the many millions of hues the human eye can perceive. I See That won the 2018 Bologna Ragazzi Award, the most prestigious award in children’s literature, in the award’s non-fiction category. I See That has been awarded with a Bronze Medal Stiftung Buchkunst in 2019.

        The Life

        by Oleg Sentsov

        The Life is a collection of autobiographical stories. This is a book for everyone who has not yet found answers as to why Oleg was assisting Ukrainian soldiers in Crimea, why he spoke openly about the war in Ukraine initiated by Russia, and why he went on a hunger strike and didn’t request clemency. These stories acquaint us with the author during a period of internal searching and transformation that was important to him, when he was trying to understand who he was and which path he will take further and never give it in. The collection is the first publication of Oleg Sentsov’s writings in Ukrainian, with the translation presented side by side with the original Russian texts. Life is an extremely important book for Oleg, and even while imprisoned, he took an active part in its publication.

        The Death of Cecil the Lion Made Sense

        by Olena Stiazhkina

        This is the first novel Olena Styazhkina wrote in Ukrainian, and the theme of embracing Ukrainian identity is central to the plot. It takes place in Donbas over the course of several years: the reader follows the journeys of characters who are, at first, held back by Soviet mentalities. As a result of war, they undergo important changes relating to their understanding of themselves and their country, like the dentist who becomes a military surgeon or the cosmetics saleswoman who becomes a sniper shooting instructor. The characters go through a whirlpool of historical events and are reborn as Ukrainians.

        by Volodymyr Rutkivsky (Author). Natalia Kudlak (Illustrator)

Severin gives to Goat the most delicious carrots from his grandmother's garden, and bends the branches of a maple tree for him, because his new friend likes new leaves so much! In return, Goat pushes Severin and his friend on the swing, and makes them laugh with his antics. And one day he even saved a bird that fell out of the nest... Together with Severin, little readers will learn step by step the secrets of a world that opens up to you if you are not afraid to go outside of Grandma's gate for the first time!   From 6 to 8 years, 13006 words Rightsholders: Ivan Fedechko, ivan.fedechko@starlev.com.ua

        Leo Baeck 1873–1956

        Aus dem Stamme von Rabbinern

        by Fritz Backhaus, Georg Heuberger

        Der reich illustrierte Band, mit vielen bislang unveröffentlichten Bildzeugnissen, würdigt erstmals umfassend das Leben und Wirken Leo Baecks – des Mannes, der zur Symbolfigur des deutschen Judentums im 20. Jahrhundert wurde.Leo Baecks Lebensweg führte vom Kaiserreich über das NS-Regime bis in die Nachkriegszeit. 1933 wurde der Rabbiner zum Präsidenten der neugebildeten »Reichsvertretung der Deutschen Juden« gewählt. In dieser Position stellte er sich den nationalsozialistischen Machthabern trotz wachsender Ohnmacht entgegen und versuchte selbst noch in Theresienstadt den überlebenswillen der Deportierten zu stärken. Von vielen als Lehrer in dunklen Zeiten verehrt, wurde er im Zusammenhang mit der Kritik an der erzwungenen Kooperation jüdischer Repräsentanten mit dem NS-Regime später auch angegriffen. Wissenschaftler aus Deutschland, den USA und Israel gehen in ihren Beiträgen zu Leo Baeck charakteristischen Widersprüchen deutsch-jüdischer Existenz in der Moderne nach: Orthodoxie und Reform, Zionismus und Assimilation, Patriotismus und antisemitische Ausgrenzung, Apologie und Kritik in der christlich-jüdischen Auseinandersetzung – die Persönlichkeit Leo Baecks steht paradigmatisch für ein deutsch-jüdisches Leben im 20. Jahrhundert.
