Magical Sweet Gula

Johanes Park, Jessica Leman

Sinopse

Gula Gulali is a magical girl with the power to turn the things around her into cakes and sweets! But she is a Magi living in the non-magical realm of Terra, where her bright pink hair and pointed ears make her stick out like a sore thumb in the regular school she attends. 
 
When another young Magi joins Gula’s school, his weird behaviour draws far too much attention to the Magi who are already facing prejudice from Terrans. Now, Gula has to navigate friendships, suspicious schoolmates, and a series of magical mishaps — all while the success of a school drama production is at stake! Will she find acceptance and belonging, or will she have to give up her magic to fit in?

The Nine Billion Names of God -...

Arthur C. Clarke

Arthur C. Clarke’s “The Nine Billion Names of God” is one of the most iconic short stories in vintage science fiction. It follows two weary engineers who journey to a remote Tibetan monastery to install a computer designed to complete a sacred project three centuries in the making. For generations, the monks have been manually compiling all possible names of the divine—believing that once the list is complete, the universe will reach its intended conclusion. The engineers view the job as a strange but harmless technical task, until they discover what the monks truly expect to happen when the final name rolls off the printer.
Clarke uses understated tension and philosophical curiosity to build a story that begins with dry humor and slowly expands into something vast, enigmatic, and unforgettable. What starts as a routine installation becomes a confrontation between technology, belief, and the nature of endings—crafted with Clarke’s signature precision and restraint.
Arthur C. Clarke (1917–2008) stands as one of the most influential writers in modern science fiction. A trained engineer, futurist, and inventor, he combined scientific rigor with extraordinary imagination. His work—including Childhood’s End, Rendezvous with Rama, and 2001: A Space Odyssey—reshaped popular expectations of what science fiction could explore. Clarke was also a skilled short-story writer, publishing hundreds of tightly crafted tales that fused cosmic ideas with human concerns. His ability to blend the mystical with the scientific is on full display here, making this story a timeless piece of classic sci-fi.

Earnest Seaton: THE BIOGRAPHY OF...

Earnest Seaton

Wahb (meaning White Bear) is an orphaned Grizzly Bear who learns to respect his fears, fight for peace, and trust the healing powers of a stinky hot-spring. The story is aptly titled The Biography of a Grizzly because it is about the life of a Grizzly. Seton writes with a folksy tone that will enlighten children to the gore and war that Grizzly Bears endure. I thought it was fun to learn (through Wahb's story) about their life span, their diet, their ability to survive gunshots and bear-traps. Beautifully written, the author captures each moment in a way that you almost feel as though you're in the story. If a bear had the ability to write his story, in short, a legacy, this would surely be one that "bears" repeating
