POHÁDKY SE MÝLILY. ROBIN HOOD BYL ŽENA...
Návrat z války pro Robyn neznamená vítězství ani klid. K starostem o rodinné panství se vzápětí přidává hrozba smluveného sňatku s místním lordem, který se netají snahou připravit ji o její rodovou půdu. Robyn se však odmítá stát pouhou figurkou ve hře mocných.
Když muži jejího nastávajícího napadnou v lese rodinu měňavců, Robyn zasáhne a kupodivu se jí dostane nečekané pomoci z rukou samotného dračího krále. Jeden dobrý skutek však spustí řetězec událostí, které z ní učiní hledanou rebelku se zakrytou tváří.
Rozpolcená mezi lidským světem a říší draků stojí Robyn před důležitým rozhodnutím, čemu dát přednost. Povinnosti a cti? Nebo lásce a rodině?
Nová matematika 1– PZ A
Prvá časť pracovného zošita s prvkami singapurskej metódy matematiky pre žiakov 1. ročníka v prvom cykle základného vzdelávania, ktorý prináša obsah v súlade s novým kurikulom. Cieľom je pochopenie podstaty matematických pojmov cez vizuálne pomôcky a logické myslenie, nie bifľovanie. Kľúčom je metóda, ktorá prechádza od konkrétnych predmetov k obrázkom a až potom k abstraktným číslam. Často sa využíva modelovanie slovných úloh pomocou blokových schém. Táto metóda je úspešná, lebo žiaci lepšie pochopia úlohy a vedia ich aj efektívnejšie riešiť. Pracovné zošity k učebnici Nová MATEMATIKA pre 1. cyklus vzdelávania 1A a 1B sú spracované v podobe pracovných listov podľa kapitol a lekcií v učebnici. Sú štruktúrované tak, aby si žiaci na príkladoch, obrázkových a slovných úlohách precvičili učivo každej kapitoly a lekcie a v závere v rámci opakovania si overili a upevnili svoje vedomosti. Úlohy tematicky často nadväzujú na učebnicu. Aj v pracovných zošitoch je zachovaná metodika singapurskej matematiky pre primárne vzdelávanie. Kladie sa dôraz na dôkladné osvojenie matematických základov a precvičovanie konceptov z učebnice.
The Beat the Pulse the Wave
Life comes at you in waves, sometimes they carry you to new shores, sometimes you risk drowning in the flood. Life is a pulse, a heart pumping the blood of now and the blood memories of the past and of your ancestors. Life is a beat, a dance, a festival where you watch Portishead in a field as the sun sets. Life is the rhythm of all three together, it is the beat, the pulse, the wave that brings you to this moment. Jeremy Dixon pauses to consider and celebrate that which was, that which is and that which could be.

Észrevétlen függőségeink
Az Észrevétlen függőségeink húsba vágó történetek gyűjteménye. Embereké, akik eljutottak oda, ahol már nincs tovább: ahol a test felmondja a szolgálatot, és a halál nem elvont fogalom, hanem reális lehetőség. A kötet azonban nem ragad le a szélsőséges élethelyzetek bemutatásánál. Nem minden függőség látványos, és nem mind rombol hangosan: van, amelyik csendben épül be a mindennapokba. Sokan évek óta,,jól funkcionáló" függőként élnek: dolgoznak, gyereket nevelnek, látszólag rendezett az életük. Rácz Laura Rebecca több tucat mélyinterjún és szakértői beszélgetésen keresztül rajzolja fel a függőség ezernyi arcát: a szégyent, a tagadást, a mélypontokat. A megszólalók között aktív és felépülő függők, valamint hozzátartozók mesélnek veszteségről, visszaesésről és felismerésekről. A könyvben olyan emberek történetei olvashatók, akik életük egy pontján munka-, szex-, szerelem-, pornó-, testedzés-, versenyzés-, szerencsejáték-, alkohol-, kábítószer- vagy gyógyszerfüggőséggel, valamint étkezési zavarokkal vagy kodependenciával küzdöttek. A kötet nem áll meg a mélypontnál, hanem megmutatja a felépülés törékeny, mégis reményteli útját is. Az interjúalanyok őszintén beszélnek arról, mit jelent együtt élni a sóvárgással, hogyan válik a józanság napi munkává, és miként lehet a pusztító függőséget kapcsolódássá, alkotóerővé vagy akár szolgálattá alakítani. A személyes történeteket szakértői megszólalások egészítik ki, amelyek segítenek tágabb összefüggésbe helyezni a hallottakat. A könyv az érintettek és hozzátartozóik mellett szól azoknak is, akik szeretnének árnyaltabban, empatikusabban gondolkodni a függőség és a szerhasználat témájáról, ami napjainkban komoly társadalmi problémává nőtte ki magát, és amivel kapcsolatban mindannyiunknak van valamilyen tapasztalata.
In the Rhododendrons
'In a memoir that pulses with feeling and intelligence, [Christle] excavates the past to expose difficult truths' GuardianWhen Heather Christle realises that she, her mother, and Virginia Woolf share a traumatic history, she begins to rewrite and intertwine each of their stories, in search of a more hopeful narrative and a future she can live with. During a rare moment of vulnerability, Christle's mother shares a memory of assault as a child growing up in London. This instant of shock and recognition sends Christle down a rabbit hole into her mother's past. From Kew Gardens to the British Library and Bloomsbury, Christle's journey takes her deep into her family mythologies and her own buried memories. All the while, she finds that Virginia Woolf and her writings not only seem to connect and overlap with her mother's story, but also that Woolf becomes a kind of vital intermediary: a sometimes confidante, sometimes mentor, sometimes distancing lens through which Christle can safely observe her mother and their experiences. In the Rhododendrons is part memoir, part biography of Virginia Woolf, part reckoning with the things we cannot change and the ways we can completely transform, if we dare. This utterly original book will stir readers into new ways of seeing their own lives. 'Heartbreaking, revelatory, exquisite, and ultimately ecstatic, this book is a gift' Jessamine Chan, author of The School for Good Mothers

The Subtle Pleasures of Indiscretion
The latest book in the beloved Isabel Dalhousie seriesThe surface of Isabel Dalhousie's life is usually a tranquil one. From her house in Edinburgh she edits a philosophical journal. In the background is her long-time housekeeper, Grace, her handsome husband, Jamie, and her two small boys, Charlie and Magnus. Outside, under the cover of the rhododendron bushes, lives Brother Fox, who, with his dark, vulpine eyes, takes a great interest in what is happening around him. And yet, in the middle of this rather idyllic setting, things are happening. Jamie, a bassoonist, has been invited to play in a prestigious London concert and to make a recording for a prominent classical label. This invitation, though, comes from a scheming woman who finds him particularly charming. Alarm bells ring. And they ring too when a wily philosopher, Christopher Dove, reveals a plot to topple Professor Robert Lettuce, a member of Isabel's editorial board. Could Isabel's life get more complicated? Yes. A woman she knew many years ago at school approaches her with a request for help. She has made an awkward discovery as a result of taking a DNA test. Can Isabel prevent the information obtained from this test from causing real harm to a whole family? If anybody can do that, it is Isabel Dalhousie. And she does that with tact and, most importantly, the grace that we have come to know as her hallmark quality.
