Beschreibung

Louisa May Alcott's 'A Garland for Girls' is a collection of heartwarming and inspiring short stories that focus on themes of friendship, kindness, and personal growth. Written in Alcott's signature engaging and insightful style, this book is a delightful read for both young adults and older readers. Set in the 19th-century literary context, 'A Garland for Girls' explores the complexities of female relationships and the importance of empathy and understanding. The stories within the book are timeless and resonate with readers even today, showcasing Alcott's ability to capture the essence of human emotions and experiences. Louisa May Alcott, best known for her classic novel 'Little Women,' drew from her own life experiences and observations to create the touching narratives in 'A Garland for Girls.' As a pioneering female author in the 19th century, Alcott brought a unique perspective to her works, advocating for women's rights and individuality. Her passion for storytelling and dedication to promoting values of compassion and self-improvement shine through in this collection of short stories. I highly recommend 'A Garland for Girls' to anyone looking for a compelling and heartwarming read that celebrates the beauty of female friendships and the power of kindness. Louisa May Alcott's timeless writing style and poignant storytelling make this book an essential addition to any reader's collection.

    Climate scientists tell us that some level of climate change is now baked in. So what will life be like in this climate-changed world? 
    In 2031, Zanna is housesitting a beachside house in Byron Bay, living the kind of life that inspires gloating selfies. She isn’t thinking about climate change – it’s just something in the background squeezing her life choices. She has much more immediate concerns, like whether she should let her parents meet her new boyfriend. Her sister Kat has worries much closer to home too, like dealing with difficult personalities in her eco-village in the hills. Their parents in Melbourne are nervously watching the stock market and debating whether it’s time to do a sea change. 
    For all of them though, the good life is uneasy, fragile, and about to come undone. 
    Linda Woodrow, best selling author of The Permaculture Home Garden, tells a tale of disaster, resilience and survival.

    The Call of the Wild is a short adventure novel by Jack London, published in 1903 and set in Yukon, Canada, during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush, when strong sled dogs were in high demand. The central character of the novel is a dog named Buck. The story opens at a ranch in Santa Clara Valley, California, when Buck is stolen from his home and sold into service as a sled dog in Alaska. He becomes progressively more primitive and wild in the harsh environment, where he is forced to fight to survive and dominate other dogs. By the end, he sheds the veneer of civilization, and relies on primordial instinct and learned experience to emerge as a leader in the wild.London spent almost a year in the Yukon, and his observations form much of the material for the book. The story was serialized in The Saturday Evening Post in the summer of 1903 and was published later that year in book form. The book's great popularity and success made a reputation in London. As early as 1923, the story was adapted to film, and it has since seen several more cinematic adaptations.
