What's in the Egg? Pop-Up Book
This dynamic book opens with a familiar and joyful sight-a baby bird hatching from an egg that sits in a nest high on a
tree. The following pages hold even more delightful surprises, as each spread opens to reveal a different animal and the kind of egg it comes from. Did you know that crocodile mothers walk from the shore to the water holding their eggs in their mouths? That emperor penguin fathers keep their eggs warm by balancing them on their feet? Or that the milkweed plant is the only place a monarch butterfly will lay her eggs? Delicately detailed and boldly coloured, every scene is a work of art that depicts its animal's unique markings and natural habitat. As they pore over each elaborately constructed page, young readers will learn valuable information about how different animals hatch from eggs in the natural world.

Copak se dá na jinovatce sáňkovat? Na obloze je jen jediný mráček, mráček chudinka, z toho chumelit nebude, postěžoval si Krtek. Ale když se Krtek se sýkorkou postarali, aby se mráček napil vody, mráček rostl, mohutněl, až se z něj začaly sypat vločky, jedna pěknější než druhá. A sníh se sypal, až jim sáňky v závěji téměř zapadly.

Queen - A Night At The Odeon (Hammersmith 1975) BD
O tom, že britská kapela "Queen" patří k největším hudebním legendám, není třeba pochybovat. O to víc je potěšující, když je v archívu objeven nějaký raritní materiál, o jehož existenci fandové sice vědí, ale doposud neměli možnost si ho vychutnat v poklidu svého domova. Již 20. listopadu se na trhu objeví další takový hudební skvost. Psal se rok 1975 a byl Štědrý večer. Členové kapely Queen ale netrávili tento sváteční čas se svými blízkými, čekal je totiž koncert v londýnském Hammersmith Odeonu, který byl zároveň natáčen televizí. Kapela zrovna válcovala hitparády a tuto v mnoha směrech výjimečnou show absolvovala v rámci turné, které následně pokračovalo do Ameriky a Japonska...A právě tento koncert se v listopadu objeví v obchodech pod názvem A Night At The Odeon - Hammersmith 1975 na CD, dvou vinylech, ale i DVD a Blu-ray a samozřejmě bude dostupný i digitálně. „Tento koncert pro nás byl hodně výjimečný. Bylo to totiž úplně poprvé, co jsme celou show hráli kompletně pro televizi. Navíc to byla Vánoční show,” uvádí kytarista Brian May a dodává: „Po skvělých záchranných pracích a přenesení do digitálního formátu je kvalita záznamu úžasná. Ta energie, kterou jsme tehdy vnímali, je i nyní cítit velmi silně.” Kapela Queen během výše popsané show odehrála patnáct písní ze svých čtyř prvních alb, které během vánočního koncertu doplnily i čtyři coververze známých rock'n'rollových klasik. Koncert se uskutečnil v době, kdy Queen již devět týdnů ovládali britskou singlovou hitparádou svým hitem Bohemian Rhapsody. Kromě této písně, která samozřejmě taktéž zazněla, se můžeme těšit na živé verze známých písní Killer Queen, Keep Yourself Alive nebo God Save The Queen...Vizuální formáty titulu A Night At The Odeon - Hammersmith 1975 nebudou obsahovat pouze legendární vánoční show, ale i dva velmi zajímavé bonusy. Tím prvním bude dvaadvacetiminutový dokument obsahují doposud nikdy nezveřejněné interview s Brianem Mayem a Rogerem Taylorem, ve kterém se oba protagonisté rozpovídali o koncertě v londýnském Hammersmith Odeonu. Druhým pak bude záznam tří písní ze show Live At The Budokan - Japan 1975, jmenovitě songů Now I'm Here, Killer Queen and In The Lap Of The Gods, které byly zaznamenány během koncertu na Dálném východě.

We're all on a search for happiness, but we're looking in the wrong places.
Everyone looks externally to find contentment, we think material possessions will unlock our happiness. A Monk's Guide to Happiness explains how and why we need to look within, and connect to our true essence, in order to find peace. Everyone has the potential to be happy, after all, we're all 'hardwired' for happiness.
But how do we get there? By meditating. Not just in the morning, but throughout the day by introducing micro moments so we never drop the mindfulness ball, even when we're busy. Meditation is more than just a stress-reduction tool or a relaxation therapy, it is the key to finding long-lasting happiness.
Gelong Thubten, a Buddhist monk who has worked with everyone from Silicon Valley entrepreneurs to Ruby Wax and Benedict Cumberbatch, explores the theme of happiness in his debut book and explains how to bring meditation into our busy 21st century lives with simple exercises.
