View Rights PortalWe present to you a rhino that actually once circled the earth in the spaceship, an artist cat from Paris known by everyone, the adventures, and wanderlust of a tiny house, and love stories kissed by the sun... Curious? If you are looking for children's books with a universal message of hope and connectedness, we'd love the opportunity to meet with you. Inner Flower Child Books is a children's book publisher founded in California in 2012 by the creative team of author Susan Schaefer Bernardo (M.A. English Languages and Literature, Yale University) and illustrator Courtenay Fletcher (BFA Advertising/Graphic Design, Art Center College of Design). These artists and their team produce profound, touching, and humorously inspiring books that have become very successful in the US. With wittiness, humor, and intelligence — with rhymes at times — they create stories that promote children's language and social capabilities development. Partly because of that, Susan’s and Courtenay's picture books are used nationwide by schools, children's charities, therapists, and families across the United States to help children and youth heal from problems, large and small. At a time when the whole world is being hit by the trauma of a pandemic, books such as “Sun Kisses and Moon Hugs” bring children and young people a comforting message of love and connection. The colorfully illustrated and inspiring picture books contain generally assignable topics such as healing trauma, bringing people closer to living a sustainable life, and the power of creative expression — predestined to be successful worldwide. (Speaking of worldwide distribution: one of Susan’s and Courtenay's books, “The Rhino Who Swallowed The Storm” was sent to the International Space Station to orbit the planet — and was read aloud by astronaut Kate Rubins as part of the innovative “Story Time From Space” program and broadcasted! Apart from that, “The Rhino” was also promoted by former, then-incumbent First Lady Michelle Obama and present presidential candidate Joe Biden. For more information, please visit our website!). All Inner Flower Child Books titles are currently only published in the United States. Susan and Courtenay are therefore pleased to be able to offer publication and subsidiary rights on all other world markets for the first time.

View Rights PortalAs the foods and recipes of Mexico have blended over the years into New Mexico's own distinctive cuisine, the chile pepper has become its defining element and single most important ingredient. Though many types were initially cultivated there, the long green variety that turned red in the fall adapted so well to the local soil and climate that it has now become the official state vegetable.To help chefs and diners get the most from this unique chile's great taste–without an overpowering pungency–Dave DeWitt, the noted Pope of Peppers, has compiled a complete guide to growing, harvesting, preserving and much more–topped off with dozens of delicious recipes for dishes, courses, and meals of every kind.
It's one of the most popular chile peppers in the world, and the number of ways it can transform a meal–and be transformed–is endless. Now, Dave DeWitt, the acknowledged Pope of Peppers, has harvested his decades of experience to create a mouth-watering combination of knowledge and delightful, delectable recipes.The ways you can enjoy these delicious peppers are virtually infinite, and DeWitt knows them all: from breakfast through dinner and dessert; in sauces, soups, side dishes, and salads.Planning them, growing them, preserving them, and–best of all–devouring them, jalapeños have never been so interesting and delicious as Dave DeWitt makes them here.

Mit viel Hingabe und Einfühlungsvermögen verleiht Isabel Allende in ihrem Weltbestseller der historischen Gestalt der Inés Suárez ein Gesicht und eine Stimme und nimmt ihre Leser mit auf eine packende Reise durch ein bewegtes und bewegendes Leben.
Das Erdbeben in Chili – Die Marquise von O... – Die Verlobung in St. Domingo – Kommentar von Helmut Nobis
Successful San Francisco attorney Will Muñoz has heard of the brutal former Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet, of course, but it's not until he receives his mother's suicide letter that he has any inkling Pinochet may have had his father, Chilean writer Ricardo Muñoz, assassinated thirty years earlier.Her suspicions spur Will on to a quest to discover the truth about his father's death–and about the psychological forces that have driven his mother to her fatal decision. His journey takes him deep into unexpected darkness linking his current step-father, the CIA, drug-experimentation programs, and a conspiracy of domestic terrorism. The Pinochet Plot is not just a story of a man seeking inner peace; it is also a story of sinister history doomed to repeat itself.
Wie lebt es sich, wenn man Tag für Tag durch ein Minenfeld aus Lügen muss? Wenn man die Nähe anderer Menschen sucht und dabei weiß, dass man weder der eigenen Familie noch der Liebe vertrauen kann? Und was lernt man – und wie lernt man zu denken –, in einer politisch fragwürdigen Gesellschaft, die Zuflucht nimmt in apathischer Gemütlichkeit? Alejandro Zambra macht das spürbar und begreiflich – mit einem Bravourstück interaktiver Literatur: einem Multiple-Choice-Test, der sich am chilenischen »Eignungstest für höhere Bildung« der Jahre 1967 bis 2002 orientiert. Multiple Choice ist ein philosophischer Abenteuerspielplatz, ein hintergründig unterhaltsames Buch, und die Behauptung, dass es ein Roman sei, ist so waghalsig wie die Behauptung, dass es keiner sei. Wie lebt man, wie liebt man als junger Mensch in einer Diktatur? Alejandro Zambra – der »Magier der kleinen Form« (Deutschlandfunk Kultur) – betreibt ein schillerndes literarisches Experiment, in dem das Poetische und das Politische auf beunruhigend komische Weise zur Deckung kommen.

Roberto Yáñez, der Enkel von Margot und Erich Honecker, bricht sein Schweigen. Erstmals erzählt er von den Glanzzeiten seiner Kindheit, vom Ende der DDR, wie es die Honeckers als Familie erlebt haben, und von den letzten Lebensjahren seiner Großeltern in Chile. Als die Mauer fällt, ist Roberto 15 Jahre alt. Die geliebten Großeltern werden als Verbrecher gejagt, und auch der Teenager fühlt sich noch verfolgt, nachdem seine Familie in das Heimatland seines Vaters ausgereist ist. Im fremden Chile findet er sich nur schwer zurecht. Nach der Trennung der Eltern zieht er zu seiner Großmutter Margot Honecker, die unbeirrt an den DDR-Glaubenssätzen festhält. Roberto hingegen entdeckt ein neues Leben – zwischen Kunst, Musik und Drogen. Dennoch bleibt seine Großmutter die engste Bezugsperson in seinem Leben, immer wieder kehrt der »Lieblingsenkel« zu ihr zurück. Erst nach ihrem Tod 2016 kann er sich von der Last seiner Familiengeschichte befreien – und erzählen.
“Between the sea and the mountain -and more precisely: between the force of the tide and the imminence of earthquakes- the transits of Cuaderno de California occur. The vulnerable -poetic and political- observation of the exterior landscape provokes incessant movements in the interior landscape of a couple, “two very old souls”, who travel: sometimes they are tiny movements, sometimes close to earthquakes. A chronicle of travel, memory and love, Santiago Espinosa's is a work wise in its beauty and beautiful in its beautiful in its beauty and beautiful in the depth of its reflection: it is not easy to think so sharply when we are so moved, in pause, by the beauty that captures us. Giuseppe Caputo[...]No one knows the origin of the word California.Someone told us: “I come from California”.Which in my language means “no place”.[...]”
