        Malwine in der Badewanne

        by Steven Kellogg, Steven Kellogg, Nele Maar, Paul Maar

        In "Malwine in der Badewanne" entfaltet Steven Kellogg eine liebenswerte und humorvolle Geschichte über Ulli, einen Jungen, der jedes Jahr zu seinem Geburtstag von seinem Onkel Mac Allister aus Schottland ein besonderes Geschenk für seine Naturkunde-Sammlung erhält. Diesmal ist es eine Kaulquappe, die sich als außergewöhnlich herausstellt. Benannt als Malwine, beginnt die Kaulquappe nach ihrer Ankunft ein Käsebrötchen nach dem anderen zu verschlingen und wächst damit zu enormer Größe heran. Schnell wird klar, dass Malwine kein gewöhnlicher Frosch werden wird. Als sie zu groß für das Glas, das Spülbecken und schließlich auch für die Badewanne wird, stehen Ulli und seine Familie vor einem Rätsel: Was tun mit einer Kreatur, die ständig weiterwächst und offensichtlich kein Ende in Sicht ist? Die Situation spitzt sich zu, als die Eltern beschließen, dass Malwine in den Zoo muss. Doch Ulli, der an seiner außergewöhnlichen Freundin hängt, findet mit Hilfe einer cleveren Freundin eine Lösung. Malwine entpuppt sich als Heldin, indem sie einen alten Piratenschatz aus dem Hafen hebt und somit den Bau eines neuen Zuhauses für sich selbst finanziert. Kelloggs Geschichte ist nicht nur eine Erzählung über die ungewöhnliche Freundschaft zwischen einem Jungen und einer Kaulquappe, die zu einem riesigen, freundlichen Wesen heranwächst, sondern auch eine Lektion über Einfallsreichtum, Zusammenhalt und die Fähigkeit, für die, die uns am Herzen liegen, einzustehen.

        The second volume of this highly collectable series, covering the pivotal years of 1969-70. The Island Book of Records Volume II documents the years 1969-70, during which Island sought to build on its success with the Spencer Davis Group by seeking out new British rock talent. By the end of the period, Island was emerging as a major British label, one that could boast releases from Jethro Tull, Nick Drake, King Crimson, John and Beverley Martyn, Fairport Convention and Cat Stevens. Featuring material from recent interviews and from media interviews of the time, and including a comprehensive discography of 45s, The Island Book of Records Volume II is lavishly illustrated with gig adverts (very many at venues that no longer exist), concert tickets, flyers, international LP variants, labels, LP and 45 adverts and other ephemera collector's dream.

        May the Loveforce Be With You

        Kali-Ki Reiki: Healing Through Divine Mother & Yogic Wisdom

        by Rajashree Maa

        May the Loveforce Be With introduces a new lineage in energy healing, Kali-Ki ReikiTM, that was revealed to the author, Joni Dittrich, Ph.D. (Rajashree Maa), in a series of mystical encounters with the Divine Mother appearing as the goddess Kali Maa. The book brilliantly tells the stories of these encounters and presents the healing symbols that She revealed, explaining how these symbols can be used both for mind-body healing and spiritual awakening, or what Rajashree Maa calls "wisening." While traditional reiki systems also use symbols to transmit healing energy, the symbols introduced in Kali-Ki Reiki are seen as unique, three-dimensional, active, intelligent forms of light that tap into certain universal energy frequencies that are particularly attuned to the evolving conscious awareness as well as the personal and societal dilemmas of our current times. The fact that these symbols were revealed by Divine Mother to a woman in this era points to a need in today's world to re-establish our connection with the feminine forces of nature and spirit. The healing energy transmitted through these symbols is called Loveforce, which is considered to be the manifesting, creative, and healing power of the Limitless Love that is the Source of all that is.

        by Ma Ruifang

        As the Chinese saying goes, "mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law are natural enemies". However, Bean Trellis, My Mother-in-law depicts the close bond of the author as daughter-in-law with her mother-in-law for more than three decades. Wherein lies the secret?   "仁" Benevolence, "义" righteousness, "礼" courtesy, "智" wisdom, and "信" faith are constant beliefs of the Chinese people, which in the author's eyes are also the most admirable qualities of her mother-in-law, who is illiterate, yet hardworking, kind, and full of the wisdom of simple life. Her kindness and generosity is just the secret to the well-being of the whole family.   Aside from describing the unique in-law relationship, this book also looks at the ups and downs of a big Chinese family from the 1970s to the 2020s. With humorous and documentary storytelling, the author wrote her life stories just like chatting with neighbors under the bean trellis. It is all-encompassing, containing traditional Chinese wisdom about getting along with the world, educating children, and even cooking, which could provide new reading experiences and inspiration for all readers.
