Summary

"A special kind of storytelling for children, with picturesque descriptions that makes the human body easier to understand and remember"
- Laura Berg, Social Education student
 
"A lot of things become more enchanting the more you know about them. How does the body do what it does? How do all the cells work together to make sure that we are well?
With Carl, benjamin, and Flora there is a lot to discover. It is only because so many cells manage to work together that our body can remain healthy. This for example explains why our skin is healthy when we remove the bandage after an injury. If you are the type of person who gets hungry after reading, you can learn why from Flora's stuffed animal. Santa Clause? He's also here to bring answers that make you curious to know more,'22 Vein Street' is a book for everyone who wants to understand the world a little better."
-Eva Rath, Ph.D., research fellow at Technical University Munich

    The Detective has been a mainstay of fiction writing ever since we can remember.   
Their deductive powers, their intuition and fleet-footed grasp of every detail can often turn the unlikeliest situation, or bunch of red herrings, into a breakthrough to capture even the most ingenious and dastardly of criminals. 
In this series our classic authors explore not only various themes, such as Occult Detectives, Female Detectives, Curious Crimes and a whole host more, but also bring a range and depth to the whole culture of criminality as we send in the Long Arm of the Law to bring justice on behalf of the society it serves.

    There is something about the number 3.    
 
The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
 
Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
 
Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating. 
 
From their pens to your your ears.
