Que las criaturas se sientan queridas es esencial para que crezcan con una buena autoestima. Un libro de cartón resistente que también será útil si los peques pasan por un momento difícil de cambios (la llegada de un hermano, transiciones, rabietas, etc.), que brindará la oportunidad de tener unos instantes de calma y conexión al verse reflejados en los animalitos. Recomendado a partir de 6 meses.

Sa recherche d'une pitance convenable le fait sans cesse alterner entre le regret de n'être pas en ménage et la confirmation que son sort de vieux garçon est le seul supportable. Velléitaire, cet « Ulysse des gargotes » (Maupassant) est confronté à toutes sortes d'échecs grands et minuscules.À vau-l'eau est un joyau drôle et pessimiste écrit juste avant le coup d'éclat de Joris-Karl Huysmans, À rebours.Cette édition comprend également deux courts récits, Les habitués de café et Le coiffeur.

In this unique book, His Holiness the Dalai Lama tells the full story of his 75-year struggle with China to save Tibet and its people. The Dalai Lama has had to contend with the People's Republic of China his entire life. He was 15 years old when communist China invaded Tibet in 1950, only 19 when he had his first meeting with Chairman Mao in Beijing, and 24 when he was forced to escape to India and became a leader in exile. Almost 75 years after China's initial invasion of Tibet, the Dalai Lama has faced communist China's leaders - Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, Hu Jintao and Xi Jinping - in his effort to protect Tibet and its people. In Voice for the Voiceless, the Dalai Lama reminds the world of Tibet's unresolved struggle for freedom and the hardship his people continue to face in their homeland. The book captures his extraordinary life, uncovering what it means to lose your home to a repressive invader and build a life in exile; dealing with the existential crisis of a nation, its people, and its culture and religion; and envisioning the path forward. Voice for the Voiceless is a powerful testimony from a global icon, sharing both his pain and his enduring hope in his people's ongoing quest to restore dignity and freedom.

Back in America after twenty years in Britain, Bill Bryson decided to reacquaint himself with his native country by walking the 2,100-mile Appalachian Trail, which stretches from Georgia to Maine. The AT offers an astonishing land-scape of silent forests and sparkling lakes -- and to a writer with the comic genius of Bill Bryson, it also provides endless opportunities to witness the majestic silliness of his fellow human beings.For a start there's the gloriously out-of-shape Stephen Katz, a buddy from Iowa along for the walk. Despite Katz's overwhelming desire to find cozy restaurants, he and Bryson eventually settle into their stride, and while on the trail they meet a bizarre assortment of hilarious characters. But A Walk in the Woods is more than just a laugh-out-loud hike. Bryson's acute eye is a wise witness to this beautiful but fragile trail, and as he tells its fascinating history, he makes a moving plea for the conservation of America's last great wilderness. An adventure, a comedy, and a celebration, A Walk in the Woods is destined to become a modern classic of travel literature.
