„So lustig, das ist schon beinahe kriminell!“ The Independent Was haben Kid Normal und die Supernullen mit Hackpastete gemein? Ganz klar: Wenn Murph und seine Freunde die Welt retten, fühlen sie sich danach wie durch den Fleischwolf gedreht. Gerade jetzt wird ihre Heldenkraft gebraucht wie nie zuvor - doch all ihre Missionen scheitern (natürlich) kläglich! Währenddessen verfolgt der Bösewicht und Erzrivale der Supernullen, Elster, einen tödlichen Plan. Er will Murph und die Supernullen ein für alle Mal ausschalten. Und wieder einmal ist es an Murph, dem Jungen ohne Superkraft, die Welt zu retten: Denn Normalsein ist die neue Superkraft! Herrlich schräg und voller Action: Der kuriose Lesespaß für alle Mädchen und Jungen ab 9, die Superhelden-Geschichten, Turbulenzen und rasante Abenteuer von Helden und Bösewichten lieben. Zum Losprusten komisch und mit Lautlach-Witzen am laufenden Band wird dieser Heidenspaß von einem Buch genial illustriert von Raimund Frey. In der Reihe „Kid Normal“ sind bisher erschienen: Kid Normal. So sehen Helden aus! (Band 1) Kid Normal. Die Schurken sind los! (Band 2)
Murphs Leben als Normalo-Superheld ist aufregend - und voller Fragen: Bekommt er jetzt ein Heldenkostüm? Einen Gürtel mit coolen Waffen? Oder zumindest einen Butler, der Ratschläge erteilt, wenn ihm das Heldendasein mal über den Kopf wächst? Inzwischen kennen Murph und die Supernullen die Antworten auf all diese Fragen. Sie lauten - in beliebiger Reihenfolge - nein, nein und nein. Als sich tief unter dem Gefängnis für abtrünnige Superhelden etwas Unheilvolles zusammenbraut, müssen die Supernullen ihre mehr oder weniger brauchbaren Kräfte vereinen. Denn die Elster, der größte Schurke, den die Welt je gesehen hat, verlangt nur eines: „Bringt mir Kid Normal!"

Can anyone deceive the loved one in order to protect him or her from the cruel truth of love? Like broken magnets that first repel and then attract each other, the characters of this comical tragedy of entanglements swing between love and lovelessness, between fantasy and reality, between dream and wakefulness. In the confusion of these parallel lives, they stray into a diffuse reality that becomes clear when they all accept that they have deceived and been deceived. In his extensive and brilliant literary career, Ariel Magnus usually approaches from a marginal sector the crucial issues that are being debated in society. As if he had an antenna capable of capturing the sign of the times, but with a certain lag that makes him decode reality from the eccentric -in the sense of being out of the center- and, therefore, paradoxically, in a sharper, more forceful and notably more uncomfortable way. His style is recognizable in the marks of humor, absurdity, polysemy, logical contradictions.

Child, nation, race and empire is an innovative, inter-disciplinary, cross cultural study that contributes to understandings of both contemporary child welfare practices and the complex dynamics of empire. It analyses the construction and transmission of nineteenth-century British child rescue ideology. Locating the origins of contemporary practice in the publications of the prominent English Child rescuers, Dr Barnardo, Thomas Bowman Stephenson, Benjamin Waugh, Edward de Montjoie Rudolf and their colonial disciples and literature written for children, it shows how the vulnerable body of the child at risk came to be reconstituted as central to the survival of nation, race and empire. Yet, as the shocking testimony before the many official enquiries into the past treatment of children in out-of-home 'care' held in Britain, Ireland, Australia and Canada make clear, there was no guarantee that the rescued child would be protected from further harm.

This book examines the ways in which ideas about children, childhood and Ireland changed together in Irish Protestant writing of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. It focuses on different varieties of the child found in the work of a range of Irish Protestant writers, theologians, philosophers, educationalists, politicians and parents from the early seventeenth century up to the outbreak of the 1798 Rebellion. The book is structured around a detailed examination of six 'versions' of the child: the evil child, the vulnerable/innocent child, the political child, the believing child, the enlightened child, and the freakish child. It traces these versions across a wide range of genres (fiction, sermons, political pamphlets, letters, educational treatises, histories, catechisms and children's bibles), showing how concepts of childhood related to debates about Irish nationality, politics and history across these two centuries.

Nona and Catalina, grandmother and granddaughter, have to flee to Mexico because of the Argentine dictatorship. The two land in a new place where they will have to reconfigure themselves in many ways. To begin with, as happens in exile, families are reorganized in unique sizes and structures. Catalina is just a child, she understands it at her own pace. Her seemingly innocent gaze observes a Chilean city that opens into a country with a life of its own. La Nona, who wields a singular wisdom, is an identity star. Questions about history and the present, arrive in time. Mexico and Argentina are distant countries on the map, but space-time merges them in a notion made of pain but also a lot of love, the argenmex, which throbs and has taken root in the south and north of the continent. This book does not stop there, but develops, reaching other geographies as well. As if it were a spider's web, it is carefully woven, captures and, above all, crosses threads of multiple meanings, from the historical, political and national, to those of childhood, the family and the individual.
