Nekonečná přátelství
Strhující a zároveň hluboce lidský portrét Lenky Reinerové (1916–2008), poslední německy píšící spisovatelky židovského původu z Prahy, jejíž životní osud se proplétá s velkými dějinami Evropy. Germanistka Viera Glosíková čtenáře vtahuje do doby meziválečné Prahy, francouzského a mexického exilu, reflektuje nevyzpytatelná padesátá léta i turbulentní druhou polovinu století. Cituje z díla autorky a propojuje poutavou literární interpretaci s osobními vzpomínkami, drobnými příběhy i silnými momenty z jejího života.
Součástí publikace je bohatý obrazový doprovod – archivní fotografie, unikátní osobní dokumenty a faksimilie dobových materiálů –, který umožní čtenáři vstoupit přímo do atmosféry doby. Kniha o paměti, odvaze a vztazích, které přetrvávají i v těch nejtěžších časech.

Make Believe
Make Believe is bestselling children’s author Mac Barnett’s rallying cry for art and imagination, and a celebration of the power of storytelling in all our lives. It’s an incisive, intimate, and timely invitation to approach children’s literature not only as an art form worthy of deep study and criticism, but as a portal into the lives of the children. And at a time when we are faced with a national literacy crisis, he champions the profound joys of literature and the importance of reading for pleasure.
What if children are a great audience for art?
What if they are in fact better equipped to engage deeply with stories than adults?
What if humans’ ability to appreciate art is, if not innate, awakened early in childhood?
Well, then we’d better do our best to make some good kids’ books.
Written with humor and academic rigor, Make Believe reads like a letter from your smartest and funniest friend.
Includes spreads from Goodnight Moon and Busy, Busy Town, illustrations by Caldecott Medalist Jon Klassen, and cover art by celebrated illustrator Carson Ellis.
The Someday Garden
Sophie Drear never expected to fall in love. But over a summer in Maine, she does: with the dazzling flowers and the towering hedge maze of Lilymoor House.
But then, a door appears. Never in the same place twice. Leading only to a dishevelled garden, and a beguiling thundercloud of a man, confined inside.
Battling with the vines – just as much as she is with Lilymoor’s owner’s two inconveniently handsome nephews – Sophie knows that she is the only person who can help Lilymoor bloom again. But when you're stuck between the men on the outside, and the one trapped within, can the seeds of romance bloom into something more…?

Dragon World

Lurking in every corner of the Earth, from the deepest depths of the oceans, to the tips of the tallest mountains, even tucked beneath the very ground that you tread on, dragons watch and wait. They take many forms - sea monsters, serpents, wild cats, eagles, and they represent many different things; Gods to be revered, evil kings to be feared, wise friends and fierce foes. So, when you accidentally step on a sinewy vine and it whips out from under your feet, or invisible forces gently fan warm air across your face, or the acrid smell of cinders pokes at the back of your throat, how will you know whether to stand and wonder, or run and hide?
Dragons have breathed fire into our minds since we could first imagine, but why do they exist in stories from every land in the world? Come in and explore Dragon World. Look into their lairs while they make shape-shifting mischief, playing with the weather and protecting earthly treasures. Soar across continents into tales as old as time. Prowl through the pages to discover rare dragon species. Find clues to track them and master how to draw them. Behold the earthly dragons of today!

Rumours and Whiskey - The Whiskey Women 1
A scorching, emotional, suspenseful romance about secrets, second chances and the kind of love that hits harder than whiskey – from the beloved author of the Bourbon Boys series.
In Rumor, Tennessee, the Crowne women are at the centre of every whisper of salacious gossip. Everyone knows you can count on them for a shot of whiskey and a wild night, but their best kept secret is how they deliver quiet revenge . . .
I survived a living nightmare. Forced to stay away from my sisters, I have to hide who I am and start over again. Until a sexy stranger messed everything up – a charming jeweller with a sinful smile and far too many questions.
Now, I’m back in my hometown, hiding my past and trying not to drown in the pressure to be the old me. Especially once I discover that the rumours swirling around my family aren’t the work of bored townies, but hidden truths. And then he turns up again.
Between a dead body, a missing cop and a job that’s connected him to my family, Julian Colton insists on staying in town. I should keep my distance, but the thing is: even with layers of secrets between us, he soothes my anxious thoughts and feeds my touch-starved, broken body.
When his past catches up with him, and mine threatens to repeat itself, it’s rumours and whiskey that’ll save us.
Super Agers
In this breakthrough moment in the history of human health care, Super Agers is an evidenced-based guide to the revolution transforming human longevity. From his unique position as a leader overseeing millions in research funding, Dr Topol explains how you can benefit from new the treatments becoming available at a faster rate than ever, and the fundamental reasons - from semaglutides to AI - that we can be confident these breakthroughs will continue.
More than a quarter of the adult population lives with two or more chronic diseases, with that figure increasing to over half in individuals aged 65 and older. Dr Topol explains the power of the new approaches to the worst chronic killers - diabetes/obesity, heart disease, cancer, and neurodegeneration-and how treatments can begin long before middle age, and even long after. In thirty years, we will have five times as many people at least one hundred years old and they will be healthier than ever because of the breakthroughs Super Agers describes.
These remarkable discoveries are deeply inspiring about our human potential. We can now realistically see how we can make considerable headway for preventing age-related diseases and may one day be able to slow the body-wide aging process itself.
'Imagine a world where diseases once thought incurable are treated, where we are healthier for longer. This future is getting close thanks to a radical convergence of AI and bioscience. In this gripping, vitally important and meticulously researched account, Eric Topol reveals the extraordinary breakthroughs that are transforming medicine-and our lives.'

In Trees
A tree is not just a type of being, it is also a way of being - one that is wildly creative, fantastically resilient, and most of all, deeply rooted...
From bestselling author Robert Moor comes a wondrous journey through the wilds of nature and the gnarls of history, exploring how trees - from the tiniest bonsai to the mightiest sequoia - teach us to grow wise.
One day, on a whim, Robert Moor set out to climb a tree near his home, unwittingly embarking on what would become a decade-long, globe-spanning adventure. Drawing on an astonishing range of thinkers, from cutting-edge scientists to ancient philosophers, Moor explores how trees have shaped human lives for millennia - and how they can guide us into the future.
His hunt for the 'wisdom of trees' takes him from the Lake District to Ethiopia, Tanzania, Papua and Japan. He dines with David Attenborough, naps with chimpanzees and risks his life to save an ancient forest. Along the way, Moor investigates some of humanity's oldest mysteries: What is the secret to growing old well? How do we set down roots in an increasingly chaotic world? And most importantly, how should we - as individuals, as communities, as stewards of the Earth - live?
What begins as an ode to the miracle of trees blossoms into a joyous, daring, fiercely hopeful endeavour to broaden our minds and deepen our connections. To truly grasp the wisdom of a tree, this bold new classic announces, you must learn to think like one.
