Výchova a vzdělávání v bodech obratu
Kniha je sbírkou dvanácti rozhovorů, které vedl Tomáš Janík, profesor Masarykovy univerzity, s představiteli české i zahraniční pedagogiky na téma obraty ve výchově a vzdělávání. Dotazovaní své odpovědi situovali do širšího časového rámce. Často do období modernity – zejména reformně pedagogického hnutí z přelomu 19. a 20. století, dále do éry tzv. socialistické školy a především do vývoje po roce 1989. Z témat žhavé současnosti byla v rozhovorech reflektována pandemie covid-19 a válečný konflikt na Ukrajině.
S Tomášem Janíkem rozmlouvali: Stanislav Štech, Petr Najvar, Dana Kasperová, Karel Rýdl, Wilfried Göttlicher, Štefan Porubský, Vladimíra Spilková, Eliška Walterová, Michal Kaplánek, Vladimír Jůva, Dag Hrubý a Petra Šobáňová.

Stand
Cory Booker captivated Americans across the political spectrum in early 2025 with his remarkable 25-hour speech on the Senate floor, when he spoke out forcefully against the Trump administration's relentless challenges to civil liberties, government institutions, the rule of law, and our nation's international standing. In the process, he outlasted the record for longest continuous Senate floor speech set by segregationist Strom Thurmond during a filibuster of the Civil Rights Act of 1957, which was delivered at another time of great uncertainty when it felt like the odds were hopelessly stacked against justice and unity. Stand expands on that message and offers a compelling vision for the future to readers who are eager to make a difference. It focuses on the virtues that are vital to our success as a nation and the lessons we can draw from past generations of Americans who fought for them. Now is not the time to surrender to cynicism or abandon our most noble ideals. Now is the time to defiantly declare, like our ancestors before us: 'I, too, stand for America."Stand is a celebration of the Americans who chose to get up in the face of injustice, who championed the uniquely American values central to making our nation a more perfect union, despite seemingly insurmountable obstacles. It is also a guide for today: leadership is not derived from position or title, it comes from action and example.
Notes from a Regicide
When your parents die, you find out who they really were. Griffon Keming’s second parents saved him from his abusive family. They taught him how to be trans, paid for his transition, and tried to love him as best they could. But Griffon’s new parents had troubles of their own – both were deeply scarred by the lives they lived before Griffon, the struggles they faced to become themselves, and the failed revolution that drove them from their homeland. When they died, they left an unfillable hole in his heart. Griffon’s best clue to his parents’ lives is in his father’s journal, written from a jail cell while he awaited execution. Stained with blood, grief, and tears, these pages struggle to contain the love story of two artists on fire. With the journal in hand, Griffon hopes to pin down his relationship to these wonderful and strange people for whom time always seemed to be running out. In Notes from a Regicide, a trans family saga set in a far-off, familiar future, Isaac Fellman goes beyond the concept of found family to examine how deeply we can be healed and hurt by those we choose to love.

Bread is many things. Bread is simple. The dough can be made with just flour, salt, starter, and water. Bread is science.

But bread is always delicious, especially when it is made with love.
Druhý suvenýr
Zdánlivě obyčejná sebevražda řadového úředníka v pražské vile představuje teprve začátek napínavého detektivního příběhu. Když se totiž policejní inspektor Kafka ponoří do vyšetřování, odhalí spojitost s legendami opředenou smrtí Jana Masaryka.
Mohlo se jednat o sebevraždu, nebo byl oblíbený ministr zahraničí zavražděn? Jak vypadaly jeho poslední dny a hodiny? A co by vlastně mohlo být tím druhým suvenýrem, který by snad konečně mohl odhalit pravdu o Masarykově smrti? Další úmrtí na sebe nenechají dlouho čekat. Každá nová stopa rozmazává hranici mezi pravdou a klamem.
Druhý suvenýr je strhující literární thriller, který spojuje napětí, historii a neúnavnou snahu o dosažení spravedlnosti — vyjde pravda konečně najevo, nebo bude navždy pohřbena?

Gyilkosság a képtárban
Ágoston épp élete legunalmasabb vakációját tölti, amikor váratlan telefonhívást kap a nagyapjától. A fiúnak Kapitány Káprázatos Képtárába kell sietnie, de amit ott talál, attól leesik az álla! A vadnyugati műalkotások között egy cowboy véres hullája fekszik a földön. Vajon ki lőtte le és miért? És hogyan került a holttest a bezárt épületbe?
Gondolkodásra azonban nincs idő. A nagyapja egy ősi varázslat segítségével átjárót nyit a képen, és mielőtt Ágoston felocsúdhatna, azon kapja magát, hogy a prérin ügetnek egy indián tábor felé.
Különös nyomozásuk egyik képből a másikba robusztus kastélyokon, morajló tengereken és zsúfolt londoni utcákon át egészen a hold sötét oldaláig vezet. A tét pedig egyre emelkedik: meg kell találniuk a gyilkost, mielőtt az elpusztítaná a híres festmények mágikus világát…
Fiala Borcsa új könyve, a Gyilkosság a képtárban izgalmas utazásra hív a híres, gondolatébresztő vagy épp meghökkentő képzőművészeti alkotások terébe.
Szinvai Dániel 27 fejezethez alkotott 27 illusztrációjának segítségével pedig olyan festők művei elevenednek meg az oldalakon, mint Eugene Delacroix, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Vincent van Gogh vagy Bernáth Aurél.

Men in Primary Education
Why are just 1 in 7 primary teachers mal? eveloped from the Men Teach Primary network, this thought-provoking book explores the complexities surrounding this under-representation. It asks what the absence of men means for all children, for schools and for the profession as a whole. Through insightful research, personal reflection and the lived experience of educators, this book celebrates the universal rewards of primary teaching, and examines the structural barriers and benefits men encounter alongside the persistent social stigma they can face. Drawing these threads together, it sets out meaningful short and long-term strategies for building more gender-balanced teaching teams and explains the right reasons for wanting more men in the profession.
Emilio Pucci
When people think of Emilio Pucci, it is of his bright, swirling colours and easy, freeing fabrics, and everyone from Sophia Loren to Jackie Kennedy donning the eye-catching dresses that personify La Dolce Vita. What few know about Pucci, however, is that before creating his world-famous fashions, he played a critical role in the war against the Nazis, risking his life to smuggle out to the Allies one of the most important documents of World War II. The authors bring to life Italy’s darkest and brightest days, with the extraordinary Emilio Pucci at its centre. Italy at the end of the war was broken, and Florence, which the Pucci family had called home for seven centuries, lay in ruins. Pucci returned home having endured trials that would have broken many, but, like Italy itself, rose from the ashes, and went on to design some of the most exuberant fashion of all time. He helped usher in a new era of creativity in Italy, which again became a mecca of fashion, art, design, film, and more. A host of supporting characters—including Mussolini’s daughter and Allen Dulles, and, most importantly, the timeless city of Florence and the mythic island of Capri—enrich this compelling narrative that will draw readers of all kinds, from war and history buffs, to fashionistas and fans of espionage thrillers along with the millions of readers who devour books about Italy and her many charms.
What Fell from the Sky
WHAT FELL FROM THE SKY is about a Cuban American boy who must join forces with his friends to help reunite an alien girl with her parents–all while their Texan town is swarming with military officers on a mysterious mission.

But after Pineda runs into an alien girl from space looking to reunite with her parents, he believes there is more behind the army’s presence than what they have claimed. Vowing to keep her safe, Pineda and his friends embark on an impossible mission to bring the alien girl back to her parents without getting thwarted by military officers' hidden agenda.
The Princess and the Grain of Rice
In the mountains of Joseon, Jeongsoon has a heart as gentle as jade, but she might just be the clumsiest girl in the kingdom. She wants to be a princess, so she enters the grand princess challenge where she must complete the Manners Test, the Wisdom Test, and finally—the Sleep Test. Upon laying down on dozens of mattresses, Jeongsoon hears the squeaking of a hungry mouse (who close readers will have spotted hiding in previous spreads) and helps it to the palace kitchens for a midnight snack. Throughout each examination, Jeongsoon is far from flawless but in staying true to herself, wins the favour of the queen and the competition itself. Backmatter includes information about the real-life Korean princesses of the Joseon period, glossary, and author's note.
