Ny, uforkortet udgave af fortællingen om drengen Niels Holgersen, der forvandles til en tommeliden og på ryggen af en gås flyver over Sverige, er en af Selma Lagerlöfs mest kendte og elskede bøger. Som H.C. Andersens eventyr har den fascineret små og store læsere, som har levet med i de spændende, fantastiske og farlige episoder - og samtidig lært af dens klogskab og usentimentalitet.

Ny oversættelse af den storslåede slægts - og kærlighedsroman, der foregår i Dalarna i årene omkring 1900. Handlingen er vidt forgrenet, med Ingmarsgården og to generationer af Ingmarssønnerne i centrum. Af kærlighed til slægtsgården må Ingmar træffe det umulige valg at gifte sig med en rig bondes datter frem for med skolelærerens datter Gertrud, som han elsker. Gertrud bliver halvt vanvittig af sorg, gribes af religiøs vækkelse og drager til Jerusalem sammen med en del af sognets beboere. Snart følger Ingmar imidlertid efter for at gøre sin uret god igen og hente Gertrud hjem.

Mademoiselle de Montpensier (1627-1693), cugina di Luigi XIV, era fiera di essere più francese di lui (Luigi aveva madre spagnola), più Borbone (i suoi genitori appartenevano entrambi a quella famiglia) e più parigina (era nata al Louvre, non a Saint-Germain come Luigi). Era una donna sportiva, casta, energica e impulsiva, a volte fino alla balordaggine.Dovette vergognarsi di suo padre, il debole e intrigante duca di Orléans, fratello di Luigi XIII, ma non si rassegnò: nei torbidi tempi della Fronda, si buttò a surrogarlo come poteva sui campi di battaglia, sino a far cannoneggiare le truppe reali dagli spalti della Bastiglia.

Die kleine Vampirin mit dem Herz für Tiere! Mein Name ist Mirella, Mirella Manusch. Ich bin fast zehn Jahre alt und habe gerade erst erfahren, dass ich ein echtes Vampirmädchen bin. Abgefahren, oder? Aber es kommt noch besser: Ich kann nämlich mit Tieren sprechen. Nur blöd, dass mein Vater von dieser Gabe nichts erfahren darf. Als Tierarzt könnte er mir sonst super helfen, wenn wieder mal ein Tier in Not ist. Zum Glück habe ich meine beste Freundin Klara. Die ist keine Vampirin, dafür aber sofort zur Stelle, wenn ich sie brauche.

Die kleine Vampirin rettet die Tiere! Mein Name ist Mirella, Mirella Manusch. Ich bin fast zehn Jahre alt und habe gerade erst einen neuen Eckzahn bekommen. Seitdem weiß ich: Ich bin ein Vampirmädchen. Ja, echt! Wenn die Sonne untergegangen ist, kann ich mich in eine Fledermaus verwandeln und fliegen. Außerdem habe ich einen eigenen Beschützer, meinen Kater Langstrumpf, der eigentlich Lancelot heißt. Und das Allercoolste: Ich kann die Sprache der Tiere verstehen, von Kleinkram wie Spinnen und Motten mal abgesehen. Abgefahren, oder? So kommt es auch, dass ich die Sorgen der Tiere in unserem Zoo kennenlerne.

In The German Aces Speak II, Heaton and Lewis paint a picture of the war through the eyes of four more of Germany's most significant pilots, put together from numerous interviews personally conducted by Heaton from the 1980s through the 2000s. The four ex-Luftwaffe fighter aces bring the past to life as they tell their stories about the war, their battles, their off-duty lives, their lives after the war, and perhaps most importantly, how they felt about serving under the Nazi leadership of Hermann Göring and Adolf Hitler.  

Qui aurait cru qu'au XXIe siècle Ford se lancerait dans la fabrication des trottinettes ? Électriques, bien sûr, mais encore... Néanmoins, rien d'étonnant si l'on se rappelle que l'histoire de l'automobile est marquée par les progrès techniques, les moyens de production, les changements sociaux et même par les modes en vigueur, en plus d'être étroitement liée aux conjonctures économiques et politiques, nationales et internationales.

C'est l'histoire d'un rêve millénaire. Concrétisé il y a à peine cent ans, le vol piloté ne cesse de se transformer et de nous surprendre. Aussi, difficile d'imaginer qu'à la fin des années 1930, les passagers avaient droit à des repas de haute qualité servis dans de la porcelaine chinoise, avant de se préparer à dormir dans une couchette confortable. Il fallait toutefois compter de longues heures de trajet pour de courtes distances en traversant fréquemment des zones de turbulence.
