The Reverend Lee is suffering from a rare and acutely embarrassing condition: Back-to-Front Dyslexia. It affects only his speech, and he doesn't realize he's doing it, but the parishioners of Nibbleswicke are shocked and confused by his seemingly outrageous comments. At last a cure is found and the mild-mannered vicar can resume normal service. Or at least as I normal as is possible for a man who must walk backwards to be sure of talking forwards! A highly comic tale in the best Dahl tradition of craziness, written for the benefit of the Dyslexia Institute. Формат: 13 см x 17,5 см.

Book DescriptionSet against a romantic backdrop straight from the streets of Rome, Janet Pedersen's whimsical tale reminds us that the purr-fection we seek is often right under our whiskered noses. Mamma mia! All the cats love the Signora'spasta . . . fresh and sweet, spiced to perfection, and served with affection. Only Pino turns up his nose and searches for something different, something that will make him purr like the best-fed cat in all of Rome. But whatever this finicky gourmet tastes, from fresh fish at the local cafe — Shoo, cat! Shoo! — to a stew at the fancy trattoria — Shoo, cat! Shoo! — a certain something is missing. What's a lonely, hungry cat to do?

Book DescriptionPeace has reigned in the magic Queendom of Kalindia for centuries. The tides of evil, which were thought to be contained and sealed under a mountain, now slowly infiltrate the highest ranks of the Queendom. Two sisters, heirs to the throne and The White Book of Magic, must decide the fate of Kalindia. When one sister suffers a flying accident, the crown is bestowed upon the least likely sister. Kalindia, a land filled with magical creatures, harmony, and lore, will soon be challenged by the despotic Kingdom of Nurland. Evil creatures, bred solely for destruction and terror, and controlled by the absolute power of the High Wizard Nur, wait in the shadows for battle. Outnumbered and ill-prepared, Kalindia's only hope rests with its young and inexperienced Queen and her alliance with her devoted adventurers. Their quest--to withstand the thrust of the dark power--hinges on an impossible deed: the recovery of The White Book of Magic. The battle must be joined. The...

Follow the yellow brick road of timeless enchantment. Over a century old, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz remains a perennial favorite, having delighted generations of youngsters (and their parents) on the page, screen, and stage. Yet, none of the countless retellings equals L. Frank Baum's original with its flights of fancy, inventive characters, and home-spun charm. In magnificent watercolors, one of today's best-known artists for children captures Dorothy and her motley band on their quest to the Emerald City and the fantastical creatures they meet along the way, too--from friendly Munchkins to the dreaded Winged Monkeys, from the evil Wicked Witch of the West to the wonderful Wizard himself. Every moment of the journey is awe-inspiring.
