Das kleine bunte Tier weiß nicht, wer es ist. Es fragt den Laubfrosch, die Pferdemutter mit ihrem Kind, die Fische, das Nilpferd, den Papagei und die Hunde, aber keiner kann dem kleinen bunten Wesen sagen, wer es ist. Erst, als es schon verzweifeln will, begreift es endlich: "Ich bin ich". In der Geschichte "Das kleine Hokuspokus" erzählt Mira Lobe, wie der Zauberer Hokus und die Hexe Pokus ein Kind bekommen. "Das kleine Hokuspokus" ist eine fantastische Zauberei, mit viel Humor erzählt.

Sumpfgeggi-Kind Gil kann tauchen und schwimmen. Gern möchte es auf einen Baum klettern, doch da ruft Onkel Babo ihm zu: "Überlass das gefälligst den Felsenkraxlern, den hässlichen, grässlichen Schluchtenhaxlern!" Felsengeggi-Kind Rokko kann klettern und klimmen. Gern möchte es einmal im Wasser schwimmen, doch die Tante meint: "Du bist kein öder Schlammwatschler und stinkiger Moorhatschler!".

"Die Geggis" ist ein kindgerechter Klassiker zum Thema Toleranz.

Valerie will abends nicht in ihr Bett gehen. Sie will lieber noch plaudern, noch singen, noch auf und nieder schwingen auf dem Schaukelbrett.

Bis der Papa sie dann endlich doch in ihr Bettchen bringen kann. Eva Billisich und Picco Kellner sprechen die Szenen der Valerie und des Papas. Ulrich Maske "malt" die dazugehörigen musikalischen Bilder.

They believed they would live forever. So begins Mira Ptacin's haunting account of the women of Camp Etna - an otherworldly community in the woods of Maine that has, since 1876, played host to generations of Spiritualists and mediums dedicated to preserving the links between the mortal realm and the afterlife. Beginning her narrative in 1848 with two sisters who claimed they could speak to the dead, Ptacin reveals how Spiritualism first blossomed into a national practice during the Civil War, yet continues - even thrives - to this very day.

There I was, working to get a rise out of my cranky little rule-following, fun-wrecking, soon-to-be ex-neighbor when my one-night stand from last season shows up…in labor. Next thing I know, I’m a single-dad begging for a crash course in caring for this tiny miracle from the neighbor who loves to hate me. It turns out Nora raised half her siblings. She knows things. And I know my son needs her. Unfortunately, she’s not impressed by my NHL career, my legendary charm, or the rumors surrounding the size of my stick (all true btw).

Ten days. That’s all I’m asking for. But not one of my NHL teammates is willing to cough up a sister, cousin, or trusted friend to play my fake girlfriend for this wedding. Pucking BS. Yeah, my mouth has been known to get me into places I don’t belong. But this Class Five panty melter is on lockdown because the last thing I need is another complication. I’m about to give up when fate delivers the answer to my prayers.

She's sharp as hell, and she's also the lush little harpy who's been rubbing me wrong since we were kids. If it’d been any other damsel in distress looking to shake some unwanted attention, I'd have been the perfect fake boyfriend for all of five minutes. But Laurel brings out the bastard in me, and five minutes hardly seemed enough time to make her squirm. She wants to one-up me. But I want to win. And maybe I need a favor too.

Cammy’s my best friend - the one person I can’t live without, the girl with the sunshine smile, the loaded fridge, and the most awesome kid I’ve ever met. She’s also the hot AF single mom I’ve made it my mission to protect from guys like me. And I won’t risk ruining our friendship by pushing for something more. I’m not that guy. I’m the good time, the class clown, the hockey stud. I’m the happy-for-now, not the happily-ever-after.

It started as a joke.... A throwaway promise between friends. A dare for a single kiss at our reunion and nothing more. But that kiss...that kiss was no joking matter. It was hot and wet. A hands-everywhere, breathless kind of insanity that left us both teetering on the brink. She’s got rules about guys like me...rules I respect the hell out of when they apply to any other pro athlete. But as they apply to me? Those rules are about to be broken.

I never thought I’d see her again - let alone find her in the same spot I left her 10 years ago, teaching at the high school where we fell in love. I should have kept walking, but I wanted that laugh, that smile. I wanted five minutes before I got back to a life with no room for my past. One kiss was all I meant to take…but then her fingers were in my hair, her breath hot against my lips, and my hands…everywhere. Now I want more. I want her, but she only wants the guy I used to be.

Modern medicine has conquered or contained many of the diseases that used to carry children away before their time, reducing mortality and improving health. Vaccination and treatment are widely available. There are still monsters left to fight, but the old ones, the simple ones, trouble us no more. Or so we thought. For with the reduction in danger comes the erosion of memory, as pandemics fade from memory into story into fairy tale. Those old diseases can't have been so bad, people say, or we wouldn't be here to talk about them. They're never coming back.... It begins with a fever.

Küken Pips macht sich Sorgen, denn irgendetwas stimmt nicht mit ihrer Tante Babette d’Omelette. Seit Tagen frisst das lebenslustige Huhn nicht mehr und starrt nur noch vor sich hin.

Whenever the author-illustrator runs in a field, climbs a hill, or swims in the sea in Israel, she looks for something small to hold in her hand. She finds a basalt pebble from the ice-cold Dan River, formed from lava over 100,000 years ago. Israel's national bird, the hoopoe, leaves a feather in the grass at HaYarkon Park. Dead hood coral grows in the Red Sea, where fish play hide-and-seek.

«Vayamos, pues, a Belén, y veamos lo que ha sucedido y que el Señor nos ha comunicado» (Lc 2,15), así dicen los pastores después del anuncio hecho por los ángeles. Es una enseñanza muy hermosa que se muestra en la sencillez de la descripción. A diferencia de tanta gente que pretende hacer otras mil cosas, los pastores se convierten en los primeros testigos de lo esencial, es decir, de la salvación que se les ofrece. Son los más humildes y los más pobres quienes saben acoger el acontecimiento de la encarnación. A Dios que viene a nuestro encuentro en el Niño Jesús, los pastores ...
