Sinossi

Cinderella is a classic tale of resilience, magic, and transformation. In a grand estate, a widowed gentleman dotes on his beautiful and kind daughter, who embodies grace and compassion. However, his second marriage introduces a stark contrast—a proud and haughty woman with two equally vain and selfish daughters. The narrative takes a poignant turn as the once-charmed life of the young girl descends into servitude, burdened with endless chores imposed by her wicked stepmother. Enduring mistreatment with unwavering patience, the girl earns the derogatory moniker "Cinderella" due to the ashes that often cloak her. Despite the cruelty, Cinderella remains silent, shielding her father from the harsh truth. The plot takes a magical twist when the prince announces a royal ball, inviting all in the kingdom. Cinderella's stepsisters mockingly prepare for the grand event, asserting that maids are unworthy of such gatherings. Left behind in despair, Cinderella's fate changes with the arrival of her Fairy Godmother—a benevolent enchantress determined to grant her a night of wonder. The Fairy Godmother, with a wave of her magical wand, transforms a humble pumpkin into a golden carriage, mice into majestic horses, a rat into a coachman, and lizards into elegant footmen. Cinderella's rags morph into a resplendent gown adorned with jewels, complemented by delicate glass slippers. The Fairy Godmother, while encouraging Cinderella to revel in the festivities, issues a crucial warning: the enchantment will dissolve at midnight. As Cinderella graces the royal ball, the narrative explores themes of magic, grace, and the fleeting nature of transformation.

    Kerry-Ann loves cricket - of course she does! Her Jamaican grandpa taught her to play as soon as she could hold a bat. Whenever she can, Kerry-Ann heads to the local club for a match with her friends.
    But now some of the club's elite cricketers want to keep the ground for themselves - and keep out Kerry-Ann and her team. So Kerry-Ann devises a daring plan to beat the bullies - and she's about to gain inspiration from a very unexpected place.
    In this time-slip tale with a touch of magic, Kerry-Ann finds out about the obstacles that her grandparents faced when they first arrived in England as part of the Windrush generation...and how she must follow in their footsteps to fight for fair play, and to keep enjoying the game that both she and her grandparents love.
    A celebration of family, friendship, cricket, British Caribbean culture, Black British history and women's sport.

    The world was and is in many areas in a turmoil: pandemic, war, energy scarcity, wheat price explosion, and many others. And everything is either impacted or has an impact on global economy. And on the top of it: Christians are in the midst of it. Therefore it matters how Christians think about the economy and act in the economy. It informs their choices as consumers and voters as well as entrepreneurs.The many crises also laid bare the injustices of our economic system and demonstrated that change is necessary. This publication presents reflections and ideas of Christians how to engage and bring change in our economy in light of these challenges. The many writers who contributed to this publication present their ideas from different angles. Nevertheless they clearly also converge when it comes to the direction we need to take.This book has been edited by Rev. Timo Plutschinski, Director of the World Evangelical Alliance´s Business Coalition.
