A flap book about good manners: not everyone is perfect, but it is important to be considerate of each other. The little fox child Fuzzy is excited: the animals in the forest are having a party and there will be cake, presents and a treasure hunt. Fuzzy has a sweet tooth and chows and chows, tears up his present, and would prefer to keep the treasure for himself. "Don't spill and make a mess," Ria Rabbit admonishes. And Sami Sparrow says, "You can't have it all to yourself." The fox child begins to ponder. True, that wasn't nice at all. But there's one thing that Fuzzy is particularly good at: listening! And all the other animals can learn something from that, too. Important message for kindergarten: promoting social behavior Gender-neutral protagonist: appeals equally to boys and girls Charming story and lovable characters Extra-large flaps on every double page A new picture book by success team Sandra Grimm and Sabine Kraushaar (What's in your diaper?)
Stars are central to the cinema experience, and this collection offers a variety of fresh and informed perspectives on this important but sometimes neglected area of film studies.This book takes as its focus film stars from the past and present, from Hollywood, its margins and beyond and analyses them through a close consideration of their films and the variety of contexts in which they worked. The book spreads the net wide, looking at past stars from Rosalind Russell and Charlton Heston to present day stars including Sandra Bullock, Jackie Chan and Jim Carrey, as well as those figures who have earnt themselves a certain film star cachet such as Prince, and the martial artist Cynthia Rothrock. The collection will be essential reading for students and lecturers of film studies, as well as to those with a general interest in the cinema. ;
Eine neue Herausforderung für die Wissenschaft: Die Welt ist komplex, also sollten es auch unsere Vorstellungen von ihr sein. Viele Disziplinen der Geistes- und Sozialwissenschaften haben sich lange an diese Maxime gehalten. Die Naturwissenschaften aber haben traditionell nach einfachen, universalen und zeitlosen Gesetzen gesucht. Damit wollten sie die "schwirrende Verwirrung" ("blooming, buzzing confusion", William James) erklären, die die ungeschulten Sinne dem Geist präsentieren. Aber dieses Unternehmen ist gescheitert. Sandra Mitchell zeigt, daß uns die Komplexität der lebendigen Welt dazu zwingt, unsere Denkmodelle radikal zu revidieren und nach einer adäquateren Erkenntnislehre zu suchen. Dazu hat die Systemtheorie Vorgaben geliefert, die seit einigen Jahren von der Komplexitätstheorie spezifiziert worden sind. Komplexe Systeme – wie die Welt, in der wir leben – zeichnen sich unter anderem durch Emergenz und Relationen aus: Was auf der Makroebene sichtbar wird, ist erst durch Wechselwirkungen zwischen den Elementen des Systems zu erklären. Wohin zum Beispiel ein Vogelschwarm fliegt, hängt nicht nur von den Individuen ab, sondern vor allem von Feedbackprozessen zwischen ihnen. Mitchell fordert deshalb: Wer die Welt verstehen will, muß auch verstehen lernen, warum das Ganze tatsächlich mehr ist als die Summe der einzelnen Teile.

Since the late 1960s, American literature has been revitalised by the work of writers such as Toni Morrison, Sherman Alexie, Sandra Cisneros and Maxine Hong Kingston. An introduction to the study of ethnic American fictions organised into four sections, each written by a specialist in the fields of African American, Asian American, Chicano/a and native American literature. Writers are discussed in their cultural/political contexts and literary traditions (rather than as exceptions or as individuals, or on a generic basis). The book highlights common themes in ethnic writing as well as specificities, and has extensive suggestions for further reading as well as a critical introduction regarding the concept of 'ethnic writing'. No competing titles - there are no textbooks, no beginners' books nor any systematised combination of ethnic fictions such as this - only edited collections on each area. ;
This unique picture book is a creation of Khrystyna Lukashchuk, a well-known Ukrainian author and artist recognized as one of the best illustrators of independent Ukraine. From the emergence of Ukraine through its darkest times to its final victory over evil, A Tale Of Light allows us to find answers to dramatic questions: how can we explain to children why there is a war in their country? Why can not the enemy leave the Ukrainian land in peace? What will help us to defeat the enemy for good? The profound symbolic images that the author recreated will guide the readers along their journey. Ukrainians have been tapping into them for long times to find a source of harmony and internal strength – they are a powerful source of Light sustained by Ukrainian history, culture, and language. No enemy, however big or conniving, can destroy this Light. From 3 to 6 years, 719 words Rightsholders: bondarenkosvetlak@gmail.com
Half of the Quilt(Picture Book Edition) is based on the movie Heart for Heart (produced by Xiaoxiang Film Group and directed by Meng Qi). In October 1934, the fifth anti-encirclement failed, the Central Red Army evacuated the Soviet Union and began the Long March. The Red Army field hospital was bombed by enemy planes and suffered heavy casualties. Dong Xiuyun, a female soldier who stayed at the field hospital to look after the wounded, decided to take the wounded with her and chase the troops. Dong Xiuyun took in the soldiers of the various units who were left alone along the road, forming a special team. After the team came to Shazhou Village, the three female Red Army lived in Xu Xiexiu's house. When parting, Dong Xiuyun cut the only one quilt in half to Xu Xiexiu. This book nourishes the young people's spiritual world with red culture, inherits the red gene, and allows the spirit of the Long March to be passed on from generation to generation among children.
The pastor in print explores the phenomenon of early modern pastors who chose to become print authors, addressing ways authorship could enhance, limit or change clerical ministry and ways pastor-authors conceived of their work in parish and print. It identifies strategies through which pastor-authors established authorial identities, targeted different sorts of audiences and strategically selected genre and content as intentional parts of their clerical vocation. The first study to provide a book-length analysis of the phenomenon of early modern pastors writing for print, it uses a case study of prolific pastor-author Richard Bernard to offer a new lens through which to view religious change in this pivotal period. By bringing together questions of print, genre, religio-politics and theology, the book will interest scholars and postgraduate students in history, literature and theological studies, and its readability will appeal to undergraduates and non-specialists.
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas (Picture Version)" is a children's traditional cultural enlightenment book with a fresh perspective. Selected representative and interesting chapters in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" were drawn into the book, which depicts a series of images in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" such as water systems, mountains, vegetations, trees, mountain gods, sacred beasts, water monsters, etc. In this imaginative picture book, images are vivid and the story theme is ups and downs. The author extracts nourishment from the profound ancient myths, and then creates new stories that children can understand. The whole book takes a retro and creative form with concise and simple text and simple and freehand ink painting through the mountain and sea scriptures, depicting a mythical world where the heavens and the earth are prevalent and the gods and monsters are in chaos.
There is a pervading idea, both in the east and west, that "big boys don't cry". To reach some cultural ideal of a "real man", boys are too often pushed to be tough and stoic and suppress their emotions. The Picture Books about Emotion Management for Boys challenges this old tradition. Of course boys cry, and we should let them cry! The series contains five books. I Want to Cry encourages boys to express their vulnerable feelings in appropriate ways. I Don't Want to Hit Back encourages boys to follow their hearts and stick up for themselves in the way they like. I am a Coward talks about self-acceptance. I Don't Want to be a Big Brother is for boys experiencing issues with new siblings. I Didn't Hear You talks about protecting boys' own little worlds. All five stories came from author Le Fan's real experiences of raising two sons as a mother. While the books are certainly children's books, they could even be viewed as parent handbooks of sorts. The author has written their parents and other adults in little boys' eyes, and calls for parents and society to raise boys differently and understandingly so they can grow in positive, healthy ways.
