Book excerpt: A simple, imaginative story depicting the complex emotional reality of a girl whose father no longer lives at home. The girl conjures up an imaginary companion — a lion — who will join her on the long walk home from school. He will help her to pick up her baby brother from daycare and shop at the store (which has cut off the family’s credit), and he’ll keep her company all along the way until she is safely home. He will always come back when she needs him, unlike her father whom she sees only in a photograph — a photograph in which he clearly resembles a lion.

Download or read book I m Off Then written by Hape Kerkeling and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-06-16 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I'm Off Then has sold more than three million copies in Germany and has been translated into eleven languages. The number of pilgrims along the Camino has increased by 20 percent since the book was published. Hape Kerkeling's spiritual journey has struck a chord. Overweight, overworked, and disenchanted, Kerkeling was an unlikely candidate to make the arduous pilgrimage across the Pyrenees to the Spanish shrine of St. James, a 1,200-year-old journey undertaken by nearly 100,000 people every year. But he decided to get off the couch and do it anyway. Lonely and searching for meaning along the way, he began the journal that turned into this utterly frank, engaging book. Filled with unforgettable characters, historic landscapes, and Kerkeling's self-deprecating humor, I'm Off Then is an inspiring travelogue, a publishing phenomenon, and a spiritual journey unlike any other.

Download or read book La historia de Ana Zeppelin written by Franny Murillo and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-08-31 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La historia de Ana se trata de perderle el miedo a las cosas. Es como un relato para adolescentes pero a la vez no, no creo que sus padres les permitirían leer esto. Trata mucho de rock, los sucesos ocurren desde que Ana, una niña solitaria de trece años, escucha por primera vez el grunge en octubre de 1991 hasta 1994 año en que este estilo comienza a decaer. En ese periodo Ana descubre sus talentos y también se da cuenta de sus “demonios internos”. Extraída de su mundo de clase media urbana Ana es obligada por las circunstancias a penetrar en la clase social pudiente de su ciudad y después, desterrada, encuentra su lugar entre los desafortunados, todo a tiempo de rock. Debo advertir que no es una novela histórica, es más bien como una canción de punk, rápida y directa, corta y contundente, sin pretensiones barrocas ni cuidado de un estilo particular. Con algunas fechas me tomé cierta libertad, no se molesten los puristas por favor. Finalmente sólo quiero decirles que si quieren hacer algo lo hagan, esa es parte de la esencia de este escrito.

The largely rural journey takes in four UNESCO World Heritage Areas - the Knights Templar Castle at Tomar, Portugal's oldest University at Coimbra, and the old towns of Porto and Santiago - culminating at the cathedral at Santiago de Compostela.

Download or read book On the Other Side of the Garden written by Jairo Buitrago and published by Groundwood Books Ltd. This book was released on 2018-03-01 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of the great creative teams in picture books, On the Other Side of the Garden is about a city girl learning to accept the change brought about by her parents’ separation when she is taken to her grandmother’s house in the country and befriended by an owl, a frog and a mouse. When her father leaves her at her grandmother’s house, the young girl at the center of this story feels abandoned and lonely. Her mother has moved to another country, and the girl wasn’t paying attention when her father explained what was happening. And she hardly remembers her grandmother. After going up to her room she decides to venture out into the nighttime garden where she meets an owl, a frog and a mouse. They take her on a tour of her extraordinary new world. When she gets back in the morning, her grandmother explains that her father won’t be back for a long time. The girl tells her that she wants to be able to spend time in the garden with the plants and animals of this new world, and her grandmother doesn’t seem to be either surprised or alarmed by her nighttime adventures. And she is very happy that the girl and she will get to know each other. Buitrago’s stories are noted for conveying large truths through understatement and suggestion. This story, beautifully illustrated by Yockteng, shows how a child can use her own bravery and curiosity to confront frightening and potentially destructive realities such as a parents’ separation and being left with an almost unknown relative through what we must assume is a situation where her father had no choice. There is an endnote about the plants and animals that might be found in such a garden.
