He must find his way home all alone: He sees old Most just one more time, when the police have extradicted him from a southern country and placed him in a mental hospital.
They have much to whisper to one another in the magical hour between daytime and dreamtime - about flying, story-telling and celebrations. With this impressing large-sized format, with folds and flaps to look at and read - the artist has truly made this an uplifting book. ISBN Single mother - Outsider - Courage - Vanity - Game The little raven is still too young to fly - but no other raven child can stand on their beak like he can. Hence, it cannot understand why the pheasant is called the king of the birds, since he has those beautiful feathers through no effort of his own and he does nothing else all day but show off by faning his tail.
So ever since then a beak-standing raven is regarded more highly than a peacock fanning his tail. This is a story of encouragement for young outsiders. Auf der Gasse und hinter dem Ofen. A boy, a girl, a young woman and a monk go through a typical day, fulfilling different tasks and duties.

Factual materials are also included, so that the necessary imaginative processes can take place on the basis of solid facts. ISBN Nonsense - Logic The caricaturist Hans Traxler gives himself and his readers this gift of a book filled with relaxing double-entendre and so-called non-sense. The purpose behind this activity may lay in pointing out the irony of adult logic which in general usage and as forced upon children is often not easily understandable.
Having a laugh over unexpected word imagery is a liberating experience. Especially when laughing together. When his mother and father bear no longer get along peaceably in their cramped cave, it is better for everyone when he meets the father outside to play and romp about. And soon he comes back again.

This is a brief survey of the origins of our world for young people, as narrated by friendly dinosaurs. Only the little desert bear, the Mazaalai, wants to stay where he was born.
All alone he wanders through the deserted countryside until he meets a person who can bring water up from deep below. The Gobi turns green again, the animals return. The vastness of the Mongolian landscape and the Mongolian's close bonds with nature are made evident in the text and imagery of this little book.
This utopia or true community among man and beast is portrayed here in text and image on a higher level. The discriminating use of artistic means keeps the book from lapsing into trite didactics. Bored of this, it flies one day with a fantastic flying machine to the sea where it enjoys exciting adventures to tell all about upon returning home.
As exemplary the story, so also the illustrations. Especially the main characters desire to look beyond their own pond. This will strike a chord with younger children and in the simply organized, block-style illustrations there are many details which will appeal to them. Winkelried is completely unnerved. He cannot find his musical score anywhere. Though he knows that he has the piece he is to play this evening completely memorized, he is about to die of stage fright.

Now the doctor's advice is to follow Fred's pace, although of course no one will ever manage to be quite as slow as Fred.

With considerable sensitivity to the explosiveness of such a difficult situation, the author finds the precise narrative balance.
When, in the winter of , he makes a remark about listening to enemy radio stations, there seems to be such danger for the family that the father goes underground and Heinrich is sent away to Pomerania.

Graeff, Max Christian transl. Die Menschenfresserin The lady cannibal Wuppertal: L' Ogresse en Pleurs. Afterwards, she is shattered by her own deed, for she has eaten her own child. The excellent German translation of the impressive, laconic text is both expounded upon and extended by Erlbruch's pictures, which leave wide berth for interpretation. Decorative elements such as the ever recurring, surrealistically strewn philodendra leaves or the child's sailor's suit allow an analysis, or perhaps a persiflage, of middleclass life.
Good luck, Emil Luck! From there he is able to provide his family at home in Gronau-an-der- Leine with the basic minimum needs. This fastpaced narrative revolves around his adventures and his often sly methods of getting by in a foreign land. Inventive, ironic illustrations round out this attractive little book, which will appeal to a wide age-range.
In prosaic pictures, which give an ironic view of cosy, middle-class homelife, we witness how Santa Claus, Lady Luck and Monsieur L'Amour go to great extremes to pass along their surplus stock of dolls to little boys and girls. Then the computer notices that this present has been placed ten years too early in the sack, because of a technical error.
Thus Antonia gets her doll Simonetta already now, unexpectedly und unplanned. Three cheers for the picture book computer. Although the author takes this aspect very seriously, she also weaves into the narrative a considerable wealth of information about culture and important thinkers in central Europe. Yet throughout the novel, the protagonists remain vivid and interesting figures at the core of the narrative.
Nearly killed along the way, he later learns that he had been rescued by Knapp, who is known in the village as a robber. Boniface is soon fast friends with Knapp's son Christian, but when the family is forced by the neighborhood gossips to emigrate overseas, they are separated. In a natural, sympathetic manner the author transports the reader into the world of the young protagonist. But nothing is given an explanation, even when objects are imbued with animation. In a quite matter-of-fact manner the poet and illustrator expand to the maximum the horizons of experience using a minimum of means.
Each page contains only those objects described in the line of text. Changes are shown in night-time blue, new situations in clear daylight. The continuity in the course of events shown in the sequence of illus-trations corresponds perfectly to the rhythm of the text. Das Kinderkarussell The children's merry-go-round Reinbek: Rowohlt Taschenbuch Verlag, So they scatter a little ash and decide to play detective. At last they get to the root of things, but not without taking some dangerous risks. A gang of forgers had been using the horse's body as a hiding place.

But look there - the grandparents, who have almost nothing to do with child-rearing, do not feel obliged to act as role models - and pick their noses, too. This merry and colorful picture book extolls the passionate pleasures of pursuing one's needs and of forming subversive alliances between old and young against dry conventions.
One day each gets so angry that he casts off his official dress - joker cap, crown and pistol. Now, without their proper owners, these three objects cause the greatest amount of confusion when they land in the wrong hands and on the wrong heads. But in the end they all come to the conclusion that things work best when done by professionals. This is a humorously told parable about real life clothed in figures familiar to smaller children. Der Buchstaben-Fresser The letter eater Hamburg: Naturally it is the work of the letter-eater, also known as letter-switcher.
All this is fairly upsetting in the everyday life of Claudia and her parents, until they manage to trick him back into his R Ei S and carry it off to a deserted forest. Only the way that objects change into words is not treated in this text. Lisas Reise Lisa's journey Esslingen: ISBN Reality - Conformity - Constraint - Freedom - Dream In her sleep, Lisa passes through a nightmare of strange and even antagonistic worlds filled with balls, corners, colors and headstands, until she finally reaches the land of feathers her own bed , where she doesn't have to be round, or cornery, colorful or stand on her head.

His tales betray, however, a longing for an intact family life and a knowable future, although he himself lives from day to day, deed to deed. Ibo's authentic narrative about the at times his asocial urban environment with unpolished and criminal but still likeable figures - both Germans and foreigners, his difficulties at home and his decision to enroll in job training, is an impressive reading both in terms of narrative style and content.

Not even in the minds of the people, who can no longer read or write anything. New auxiliary rules of spelling are established. But more and more letters disappear, and nothing works any longer.

With humor and a sense of place, the author describes how an unspoiled landscape is saved from being destroyed by profit-seekers. And he wants more. How the two of them start with the parental library and swing wordlessly on a bookmark from adventure to adventure, page after page, is another piece of Heidelbach creativity.
Here he takes a stand on reading for fun, but one thoroughly devoid of pedagogical undertones. The conflicts and skurmishes the young man experiences in this misanthropic institute, but also the positive encounters and experiences of those years make up the atmosphere of this weighty book. It bears witness to one man's mental resistance against active violence and structural force; a convincing testimony not only in a literary sense but by means of its wisdom and humanity.

And in his head he hears the echos of the hunters' steps and the buzzing of their machines; and the warnings of his brothers and sisters.
