Beschreibung

In "Kazan, the Wolf Dog," James Oliver Curwood weaves a gripping tale that explores the themes of loyalty, survival, and the intricate bond between humans and animals. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Canadian wilderness, Curwood's narrative is rich with vivid descriptions and emotional depth, reminiscent of the naturalistic literature of the early 20th century. Through the journey of Kazan, a half-wolf, half-dog, the reader is drawn into a world where instinct and kinship dictate the rules of life and death, showcasing Curwood's ability to blend adventure with profound moral dilemmas. James Oliver Curwood was a notable American author, conservationist, and filmmaker whose passion for the natural world profoundly influenced his writing. His experiences in the wild, coupled with his advocacy for animal rights and environmental preservation, inspired him to highlight the harmony and conflict between mankind and nature. These themes resonate throughout "Kazan," reflecting Curwood'Äôs belief in the importance of understanding and respecting wildlife. This book is highly recommended for readers of all ages who appreciate nature-infused storytelling and moral complexity. Curwood'Äôs imaginative narrative invites young readers to see beyond the surface, fostering empathy and a deeper connection to the animal kingdom and the wilderness itself. "Kazan, the Wolf Dog" is not just a tale; it is a profound exploration of love, sacrifice, and the instinct to belong.

    The Story of Little Boy Blue -...

    "Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn, 
    The sheep's in the meadow, the cow's in the corn; 
    Where's the little boy that minds the sheep? 
    He's under the haystack, fast asleep!" 
    So what is this all about? Why is he asleep? Is he just lazy or is there a good reason for this? That wonderful storyteller Baum, of Wizard of Oz fame, tells us the delightful story behind this little rhyme and we all will feel much better knowing that the little boy had excellent reasons to be asleep that morning. Listen and enjoy the whole nifty story. Many of our most loved nursery rhymes are complete tales in themselves, telling their story tersely but completely; there are others which are but bare suggestions, leaving the imagination to weave in the details of the story. Perhaps therein may lie part of their charm, but however that may be the children might like the stories told at greater length, that they may dwell the longer upon their favorite heroes and heroines.

    In the north of Europe, on the top left-hand tip of a country shaped like a butterfly, lies the Livonian coast: a quiet place with wide sandy beaches, wild forests and not very many people at all.
    If you decide to go there yourself and sit on the edge of a forest, you might see some little creatures moving around, smaller than the elks but bigger than the wild boar and badgers…
    Can you spot prickly Spendthrift, desperately trying to impress her friends? Over by that little house is Hare, preparing buttercup tea and crisp golden waffles for his sailor friend (and prisoner) Wolf, who just wants to be back at sea. And that worried-looking fellow hurrying up the hill is Squishbod – he really does have a skeleton in his cupboard…
    Across nine deeply atmospheric and compelling fairytales, Lilija Berzinska follows the desires and anxieties of a community of mysterious creatures in the north of Latvia, gently exploring their preoccupations and suggesting solutions with resonant empathy and wisdom.
    A Skeleton in the Cupboard won the prestigious Latvian Literary Award of the Year (Children's Category) in 2019, with judges noting: 'Lilija Berzinska's tales ooze warmth and sweetness.'
