Book One. Rae Wilder has problems. Supernatural creatures swarm the earth, and humanity is on the brink of extinction. Stalked by a handsome fairy who claims she is like him, demonkind, Rae thinks maybe it was a mistake breaking the rules by going over the Wall into demon territory. Plunged into a world of dark magics, fierce creatures, and ritual sacrifice, she is charged with a guarding a magical amulet. The changes to her mind and body are startling, but rather than accept her purpose she struggles against who she is destined to be. Throw in a big lust for a vampire who can't keep his hands off her, and life starts to get complicated. Rae is forced to make the ultimate choice: to live and die human, or embrace her birth-right and wield magics that could turn her into something wicked, a force of nature nothing can control.

"The Story of the Three Bears" (often known today as "Goldilocks and the Three Bears") is a children's story first recorded in narrative form by English author and poet Robert Southey and first published in a volume of his writings in 1837. The same year, writer George Nicol published a version in rhyme based upon Southey's prose tale, with Southey approving the attempt to bring the story more exposure. The story makes extensive use of the literary rule of three, featuring three chairs, three bowls of porridge, three beds, and the three title characters who live in the house. There are also three sequences of the bears discovering in turn that someone has been eating from their porridge, sitting in their chairs, and finally, lying in their beds, at which point is the climax of Goldilocks being discovered. This follows three earlier sequences of Goldilocks trying the bowls of porridge, chairs, and beds successively, each time finding the third "just right". With stunning graphics and handpicked content this book was specifically designed for iPads users. Your kids will love the illustrations.

Quando Katniss urla "Mi offro volontaria, mi offro volontaria come tributo!" sa di aver appena firmato la sua condanna a morte. È il giorno dell'estrazione dei partecipanti agli Hunger Games, un reality show organizzato ogni anno da Capitol City con una sola regola: uccidi o muori. Ognuno dei Distretti deve sorteggiare un ragazzo e una ragazza tra i 12 e i 18 anni che verrà gettato nell'Arena a combattere fino alla morte. Ne sopravvive uno solo, il più bravo, il più forte, ma anche quello che si conquista il pubblico, gli sponsor, l'audience. Katniss appartiene al Distretto 12, quello dei minatori, quello che gli Hunger Games li ha vinti solo due volte in 73 edizioni, e sa di aver poche possibilità di farcela. Ma si è offerta al posto di sua sorella minore e farà di tutto per tornare da lei. Da quando è nata ha lottato per vivere e lo farà anche questa volta. Nella sua squadra c'è anche Peeta, un ragazzo gentile che però non ha la stoffa per farcela. Lui è determinato a mantenere integri i propri sentimenti e dichiara davanti alle telecamere di essere innamorato di Katniss. Ma negli Hunger Games non esistono gli amici, non esistono gli affetti, non c'è spazio per l'amore. Bisogna saper scegliere e, soprattutto, per vincere bisogna saper perdere, rinunciare a tutto ciò che ti rende Uomo.

Little Red Riding Hood is a remarkable classic fairy tale. In the 19th century two separate German versions were retold to Jacob Grimm and his younger brother Wilhelm Grimm, known as the Brothers Grimm, the first by Jeanette Hassenpflug (1791-1860) and the second by Marie Hassenpflug (1788ñ1856). The brothers turned the first version to the main body of the story and the second into a sequel of it.  It is about a girl called Little Red Riding Hood, after the red hooded cape or cloak she wears. The girl walks through the woods to deliver food to her sick grandmother. A wolf wants to eat the girl but is afraid to do so in public. He approaches little red riding hood and she naively tells him where she is going. He suggests the girl pick some flowers, which she does. In the meantime, he goes to the grandmother's house and gains entry by pretending to be the girl. He swallows the grandmother whole, and waits for the girl, disguised as the grandmother. With stunning graphics and handpicked content this book was specifically designed for iPads users. Your kids will love the illustrations.

In the spring of 2000, Fumiko Ishioka, the curator of a small Holocaust education centre for children in Tokyo, received a shipment from the Auschwitz museum. Among the items she received was an empty suitcase with the words “Hana Brady, May 16, 1931, Orphan” written on it. Fumiko and the children at the centre took it upon themselves to find out what became of Hana. The heartbreaking story they uncovered of a brave young girl killed in the Holocaust and survived only by her brother, George, was captured in Karen Levine’s book Hana's Suitcase, first published in 2002. The response to Hana's story has been overwhelming. Hana's Suitcase Anniversary Album has over 60 new pages with all new photographs and videos, a song written in tribute to Hana's story, art from children around the world and letters from author Karen Levine, Hana’s brother George Brady, and Fumiko Ishioka, updating us on the book's impact on their lives.
