        Clara, Julian, Felix and Fee must have done something bad, because they are waiting for a severe punishment: detention. “Detention” is actually the wrong word.

Then several suspicious looking men turn up, alleging that they are sports teachers. Could this be the cover-up of a murder? And what is the grumpy housemaster Kratzek hiding?

One morning, the wonderful news that the family is about to grow, prompts them to think about finding a new home. The Beavers now need to find a bigger home.

        The Magnificent Fowley’s and Friends

        by Rosa Raacz

        A few years ago I went on a holiday to my son’s farm. My two grandchildren were about six or seven years old. They knew that I love to tell stories, and each evening, before they went to sleep, I told them one about some animals on their farm. They wanted to hear more and more... The stories were about Fluffy the Chick, his friend John Ernest the Turtle, Hi-Ho the Horse, Gideon the Goat, and the others—in short, a merry bunch! I went back home and a few days later I received a letter from my daughter-in-law, who asked me to write down the stories so that she could read them to her children. And so this book came to be. Anyone who loved Winnie-the-Pooh, The Wind in the Willows, The Hobbit, and all those wonderful books of our childhood, will also love this book and enjoy a few hours of entertainment regardless of age. I have been writing for over fifty years; some of my works have already been published and others are still forthcoming. I waited to publish this book until a suitable illustrator could be found. I was lucky to collaborate with Miss Friedman, who succeeded in giving her unique personalization to the characters of the stories. Have fun! Yours, Rosa Raacz 114 Pages, 17X24 CM

        Petrow hat Fieber

        Gripperoman | Ideologie trifft auf Reklame, Dostojewski auf die Turtles

        by Bettina Kaibach, Alexei Salnikow

        Das postsowjetische Jekaterinburg, kurz vor Silvester: Petrow, Automechaniker und erfolgloser Künstler, fühlt sich grippig. Auf dem Weg zur Arbeit wird er von seinem alten Freund Igor abgefangen und schon sitzen die beiden in einem Leichenwagen um einen Sarg und kippen einen Wodka nach dem nächsten. Währenddessen versucht Petrows Ex-Frau die Mordgedanken zu unterdrücken, die ständig von ihr Besitz ergreifen ... Nicht nur der Alkohol benebelt hier die Sinne wie seit Wenedikt Jerofejews »Reise nach Petuschki« nicht mehr. Alexei Salnikow fasst den maroden Zustand der postsowjetischen Gesellschaft ins Bild einer ansteckenden Krankheit, die niemanden verschont. Unverdaut stehen in den fiebrigen Gehirnen der Petrows Erinnerungssplitter aus der Breschnew-Ära neben Fetzen westlicher Popkultur, trifft Ideologie auf Reklame, Dostojewski auf die Turtles. Nach moralischem Halt sucht man vergebens, während Ewiggestrige und Marginalisierte durch die verstörte Gegenwart marodieren. Dass die Petrows inmitten des Irrwitzes trotz allem eine zarte Menschlichkeit bewahren, zeichnet Salnikows hochaktuellen Roman aus.

        by Patrick Roth

Im Laufe eines Jahres erzählen vier seiner Bewohner – Rex, Moss, Gary und June – ihre aufeinander bezogenen Geschichten. Der Mann an Noahs Fenster, Rex, erzählt scheinbar nur von seinem Vater, der Gary Cooper in »Zwölf Uhr mittags« gedoubelt haben soll, aber er kündigt auch den »Tod des Königs«, das Ende unserer Zeit und des herrschenden Bewußtseins an. – Moss McCloud, der in Angst vor dem nächsten Holocaust lebt, erwartet in Sonnenfinsternis den Besuch seiner Tochter, die vor vierzig Jahren in New York entführt worden war und deren Spur er bis nach Los Angeles folgte. – Gary, ein Schlagzeuger und christlicher Fundamentalist, der den Turtles-Hit »Happy Together« in den sechziger Jahren gespielt haben könnte, sucht in Reiter auf dem Sturm einen Weg aus persönlicher Schuld, sich durch Liebe im Untergang noch zu retten. – Und Die Frau im Sternenmeer, June, Ex-Sekretärin in Hollywood, deren Mann sie zur Zeit ihrer größten Krise mit einem Starlet namens Marilyn Monroe betrog, überlebt das Leben. Neugeboren taucht sie aus ihrer Asche im Pool des Starlite Terrace hervor.In vier Geschichtskaskaden entfaltet Patrick Roth eine Welt, in die das Unerwartete einbricht und auf seltsam eigene Weise die Wirk-lichkeit verwandelt, die eben noch definiert und festzustehen schien. Starlite Terrace erzählt von Wundern im Alltäglichen.

        Assessment of Sea-Turtle Status and Trends

        Integrating Demography and Abundance

        by Committee on Sea Turtle Population Assessment Methods; National Research Council

        All six species of sea turtles found in U.S. waters are listed as endangered or threatened, but the exact population sizes of these species are unknown due to a lack of key information regarding birth and survival rates. The U.S. Endangered Species Act prohibits the hunting of sea turtles and reduces incidental losses from activities such as shrimp trawling and development on beaches used for nesting. However, current monitoring does not provide enough information on sea turtle populations to evaluate the effectiveness of these protective measures. Sea Turtle Status and Trends reviews current methods for assessing sea turtle populations and finds that although counts of sea turtles are essential, more detailed information on sea turtle biology, such as survival rates and breeding patterns, is needed to predict and understand changes in populations in order to develop successful management and conservation plans.
