My Mum Tracy Baker
Jacqueline Wilson's bestselling, ultra famous and TOTALLY BRILLIANT Tracy Beaker is BACK!!
Tracy has returned, hand in hand with her daughter Jess, and she's ready to make her childhood dreams come true.
Jess and Tracy Beaker are the perfect team. They do everything together.
Jess thinks Tracy is the best mum ever, even when she shouts at her teachers!
Tracy has made the perfect home for Jess, leaving The Dumping Ground far behind her.
Yes, their flat's a bit mouldy. It's only just big enough for two. And the Duke Estate is a bit scary.
But it's their happy home.
Until Sean Godfrey, Tracy's rich boyfriend, whisks them away to his mansion, life of fast cars and celebrity stardom.
Will Jess's brilliant mum turn into a new person altogether?
And will Tracy realise that her childhood dream might not be what she needs after all?
Jacqueline Wilson is one of the most loved authors for a reason. Her characters never needed a cape, or a special power to be a hero to generations of children; just huge imaginations, a bit of fierceness and a big heart. And there is no hero fiercer or more iconic than Tracy.
My Mum Tracy Beaker is a fantastic new story, reuniting readers with a much-loved old friend (and some old enemies. . .) Just like old times, it's packed full of illustrations from Nick Sharratt.

Pause
"Danielle Marchant is a beguiling leader - a refreshing mix of pragmatic and soulful. She facilitates with a light hand and an engaged heart" Queen of RetreatsPause is an important message ready to be heard. We check our phones an average of 221 times a day, we have apps that help us sleep and remind us to be mindful while we secretly measure our success in 'likes'.
Time is our luxury and yet with technology we are never able to leave the office, even when we aren't there. The fear of missing out makes us rush from one thing to the next, not really taking any of it in. Pause allows you to finally put yourself, your feelings and your intuition first.
Learning to say no, doing the things that make you feel good, and not doing the things that don't make you feel good - these are not self indulgent, listening to your own heart and wisdom doesn't make you selfish, slowing down to appreciate your life isn't lazy or unambitious. It is an ancient message, but still just as strong; when you pause to take care of yourself and your own life, you become the person you're meant to be. This book gives you the space and the practices so that you can learn how to benefit from the power of the pause.
It uses nature, creativity and your inner spirit to allow the energy to flow freely once again. There are exercises to ground you, give access to your intuition, to breathe deeply and allow your monkey mind to settle. It gives you time to explore what is big in your life right now, to know deep down what matters.
It opens you up, allowing you to freely experience all the pain, the joy and the twists and turns of life. It gives you back your courage, your fire and your connection.

You, Me and Art - Artists in the 21st Century
As the art world shifts and expands, the position of everyone in its orbit--from viewers to critics and curators to artists themselves--is continuously reinvented and transformed. Though the artist remains at the center of the artistic universe, what it means to be an artist is in constant flux. Setting out to explore this condition, art advisor, collector and journalist Marta Gnyp conducted a series of interviews with artists and their interlocutors; You, Me and Art collects these conversations. Here, François Pinault speaks about his experiences and his vision of contemporary art as a collector; Anthony d'Offay reflects on artists and the postwar art system from the perspective of a gallerist; and Demetrio Paparoni reflects on the state of contemporary art in his role as an art historian, curator and critic. Artists such as Carl Andre, Michael Borremans, Mark Bradford, Damien Hirst, Robert Longo, Sarah Lucas, Danh Vo and more speak about what the work and life of an artist can look like now, testifying to the diversity and variability of that position. You, Me and Art: Artists in the 21st Century offers fresh insights into the artistic practices of our time, giving readers a glimpse of the extraordinary range of things an artist might do or think about, and how these concerns shape our contemporary art system.

A Captain's Duty
8th April 2009 was just an ordinary day for 53 -year-old Richard Phillips, captain of the United States-registered cargo vessel, the Maersk Alabama, as it headed towards the port of Mombasa. Ordinary that is until, two hundred or so miles off the east coast of Africa, armed Somali pirates attacked and boarded the freighter. It was the first time an American cargo ship had been hijacked in over 200 years. What the pirates didn't expect was that the crew would fight back, nor did they expect Captain Phillips to offer himself as a hostage in exchange for the safety of his crew - a courageous gesture that resulted in his being held captive on a tiny life-boat off the anarchic, gun-plagued coast of Somalia. And so began a tense five-day stand-off, which ended in a daring high-seas rescue by U.S. Navy SEALs. In A Captain's Duty, Richard Phillips tells his own extraordinary story - that of an ordinary man who did what he saw as his duty and in so doing became a hero. It is a thrilling true tale of adventure and courage in the face of deprivation, death threats and mock executions and also a compulsively readable first-hand account of the terrors of high-seas hostage-taking.

What, you have to ask, could possibly go wrong...Praise for Clarkson: "Brilliant...laugh-out-loud." (Daily Telegraph). "Outrageously funny...will have you in stitches." (Time Out).

A cipész felesége
Ciro és Enza tizenéves korukban találkoznak először az Olasz-Alpokban megbúvó kis faluban, ami az otthonuk. Találkozásuk rövid, de gyönyörködtetően tartalmas.
Amikor Cirót méltatlan módon elküldik Amerikába, Kis-Itáliába cipésztanoncnak, Enza vigasztalhatatlan. A családját váratlan tragédia éri, és neki is Amerikába kell mennie apjával, hogy így biztosítsák családjuk jövőjét.
Anélkül, hogy tudnának egymásról, Ciro és Enza új életet kezd New Yorkban, ahol eltérő utakon járnak, mígnem a sors közbeszól, és újra összehozza őket. De ekkor már késő: Ciro jelentkezett az I. világháborúba, és Enzának meg kell tanulnia Ciro nélkül felépíteni életét a Metropolitan Operaház varrónőjeként.
Ahogy sorsuk összefonódik és világuk végérvényesen megváltozik a háború után, el kell dönteniük, hogy közös-e a jövőjük vagy sem.

Vom Kriege
Der Krieg als "Fortsetzung der Politik mit anderen Mitteln" - als Carl von Clausewitz an seiner monumentalen Abhandlung "Vom Kriege" (1832-34) arbeitete, konnte er nicht ahnen, dass dieser Satz einmal zum geflügelten Wort werden würde. Doch wer wie sein Autor gute Gründe hat, den Krieg als ein Instrument zu begreifen, das in der Hauptsache politischen Zwecken dient, kommt nicht umhin, seine Folgerichtigkeit nüchtern anzuerkennen. Die vorliegende Auswahlausgabe konzentriert sich auf die zentralen Kapitel dieses philosophischen Klassikers über das Wesen des Krieges.

mselves against the surviving stalkers of the road, the clothes they are wearing, a shopping cart of scavenged food and each other, living out a poetic nightmare that is both heartless and heartfelt.
