Ariol 4: Pekná krava
PEŤULA je krásna a ako pekne vonia! Ariol sedí v triede rovno za ňou a vo svojich myšlienkach ju zasýpa komplimentami. Dokonca si predstavuje, ako jej hovorí, že ju miluje. Je preto obzvlášť čudné, že keď sa PEŤULA otočí a niečo mu hovorí, Ariol jej nevie odpovedať. Celkom stratí reč! Ako na potvoru! Ach jaj, prečo je pre malého oslíka také ťažké, milovať peknú kravu?
Ariol 3: Svinsky dobrý kamoš
Také ľahké: ARIOL je somár a RAMONO prasa. Jeden je modrý, má dlhánske uši a veľké okuliare. Druhý je ružový a má rypák ako elektrická zásuvka. Niežeby sa podobali, ale sú kamoši. Až takí dobrí, že prasa niekedy robí somariny a somár prasaciny. A zrazu už fakticky nikto nevie, ktorý je ktorý.

Uncovering the unsung heroes and side guys, Lizzy has us ask, what is it to be a 'hero'? And should the so-called 'zeroes' be the real stars of the show? So, dive in and prepare to decide who deserves their place in history.

Co o knize říkají další hlasy?
„Lidé říkají, že moji táta s mámou jsou skvělí v učednictví. Myslím, že na tom mám aspoň poloviční zásluhu, protože si to na mně doma trénovali.
Jedním z důvodů, proč jsem já sama vedoucí, je to, že HOGC je církev mladých, která dává mládeži pravomoci. Zodpovědnost jsem měla už v 11 letech. A nejde jen o mě, ale o celou generaci mladých lidí, jako jsem já. Všichni chceme žít pro Boha a stát se v církvi zaměstnanci na plný úvazek nebo pastory!“
— RINNAH (16 let), dcera Howa a Lie, vedoucí 130 mladých lidí a instruktorka práce se sociálními sítěmi
„Vyrůstal jsem ve Švýcarsku. Do Singapuru jsem se přestěhoval a k HOGC se připojil ve 25 letech. V té době byli téměř všichni vedoucí v církvi teenageři. Přišel jsem jako starší, měl jsem vystudovanou biblickou školu, byl jsem podnikatel a ‚běloch‘ v asijské církvi. Myslel jsem si, že mě hned obsadí do vedoucí role nebo mě postaví na pódium. Místo toho jsem ale dalších 4 až 5 let čistil záchody.“
— CHRISTIAN HONEGGER, ředitel pro globální vztahy; HOGC sdílí pohled člověka ze Západu na asijskou církev
„Jeden z nejsilnějších momentů mého učednictví se odehrál v době, kdy pastorka Lia bojovala s rakovinou. Vlastně se to stalo přímo uprostřed její chemoterapie! Koho by napadlo, že i chemoterapie se dá využít k učednictví?“
— PASTOR CHARLESTON, člen exekutivního vedení HOGC

A WATERSTONES BEST BOOK OF 2025 & NEW STATESMAN BOOK OF THE YEAR 2025
Are we cooked?
An incredible deep dive into how algorithms, social media and the internet are changing the way we communicate and think, from linguist and content creator Adam Aleksic (aka the @etymologynerd)
The internet has ushered in an unprecedented linguistic upheaval. New slang emerges and goes viral overnight. Accents are shaped or erased on YouTube. Grammatical rules, loopholes, and patterns surface and transform our interactions, social norms and habits. And with over 7 billion internet users, the sheer volume of potential new words is astounding.
In Algospeak, online etymologist Adam Aleksic embarks on an energetic, astonishing journey into language and the internet; revealing the bigger social story of how language shapes us, just as much as we shape it.
Collapse
The first volume of a ground-breaking and truly global trilogy on the Second World War, from an exciting, prize-winning academic.
Between 1931 and 1949, a series of crises threatened world order and the very functioning of states, as well as destroying or changing millions of ordinary people's lives. At the heart of these upheavals was an all-encompassing war that was a watershed moment in modern history.
Collapse tells the story of the first part of this "Greater Second World War," from 1931-1941, weaving multiple international trends, theatres of war and home fronts into a single, compelling global narrative. It shows from all sides what influenced the key campaigns, and the great shifts in power and society that accompanied them.
Combining brand new sources in 14 languages from over 50 archives around the world, and a highly original approach that explores the personal alongside the political, Professor Jonathan Fennell shows in vivid colour how a world that many considered civilised collapsed into barbarity.
By using immersive storytelling and a cast of characters from well-known political and literary figures to everyday citizens around the world - including not only "bands of brothers" but also less well-known "sisters in arms" and "war-woven lovers" - he explores what it really meant to live through this violent upheaval.
This is a landmark work from an outstanding historian that transforms our understanding of this monumental conflict.
