Некоторые сказки великого датского писателя Ханса Кристиана Андерсена (1805-1875) так глубоко вошли в наше сознание, что порой мы даже забываем, принадлежат ли они перу писателя или существуют сами по себе. Это полностью относится, наверное, к самой поучительной и загадочной сказке Андерсена - "Оле-Лукойе", опубликованной в декабре 1841 года в последнем из шести сборников "Сказок, рассказанных детям". Благодаря этой сказке многие дети познакомились с удивительным существом, которое носит обычное датское имя - Оле. А вот вторая часть его имени означает "закрой глазки". Оле-Лукойе был известен в датском фольклоре задолго до того, как Андерсен написал свою сказку, но теперь о том, фольклорном, Оле просто забыли: его место занял андерсеновский персонаж с его волшебным зонтиком, насылающим сны. В настоящем издании использован полный текст сказки в прекрасном переводе Анны Ганзен. Книга богато иллюстрирована жизнерадостными, теплыми и добрыми рисунками замечательной художницы Надежды Федотовой. Все иллюстрации выполнены в технике левкас, применяемой еще в русской средневековой иконописи.

Dickens's tale of childhood innocence beset by evil depicts the dark criminal underworld of a London peopled by vivid and memorable characters - the arch-villain Fagin, the artful Dodger, the menacing Bill Sikes and the prostitute Nancy. Combining elements of Gothic Romance, the Newgate Novel and popular melodrama, Dickens created an entirely new kind of fiction, scathing in its indictment of a cruel society, and pervaded by an unforgettable sense of threat and mystery.

"You think you're better than everyone else?
Listen to me, I'm going to kill you."

Hector has always minded his own business, working hard to make his way to a better life someday. He's the chess team champion, helps the family with his job at the grocery, and teaches his little sister to shoot hoops overhand.

Until Joey singles him out. Joey, whose older brother, Chavo, is head of the Discipulos gang, tells Hector that he's going to kill him: maybe not today, or tomorrow, but someday. And Hector, frozen with fear, does nothing. From that day forward, Hector's death is hanging over his head every time he leaves the house. He tries to fade into the shadows - to drop off Joey's radar - to become no one.

But when a fight between Chavo and Hector's brother Fili escalates, Hector is left with no choice but to take a stand.

The violent confrontation will take Hector places he never expected, including a reform school where he has to live side-by-side with his enemy, Joey. It's up to Hector to choose whether he's going to lose himself to revenge or get back to the hard work of living.

Do you know how dragons got their fire? It all began once upon a magic kingdom, when a fearsome, terrifying dragon stalked the land.

When Ahab and his friends find a bullfrog in their town - a real, live bullfrog, possibly the last bullfrog in North America - they have several options:

A. Report it to the Environmental Police Force. Too bad everyone knows the agency is a joke.
B. Leave it be. They're just a bunch of kids - what if they hurt it by moving it?
C. Find another real, live bullfrog on the black market. Convince their parents to let them bike to Canada. Introduce the two frogs. Save all of frogkind.

Ahab convinces the rest of the group that C is their only real option. Because if they don't save this frog, who will? Their quest, which will involve fake ice cream, real frog spawn, and some very close calls, teaches Ahab that hope is always the logical choice and that science is always better with friends.

With humor and empathy, acclaimed author Madelyn Rosenberg builds an all-too-imaginable future ravaged by climate change, where one kid can still lean on his friends and dream up a better tomorrow.
