Sinossi

In "Sweet Content," Mrs. Molesworth crafts an enchanting narrative that delves into the intricacies of childhood and the profound impact of environment on personal development. Set against the backdrop of Victorian England, the novel is characterized by its lyrical prose, exploring themes of innocence, imagination, and the bittersweet nature of growing up. Molesworth's literary style is imbued with rich descriptive passages, inviting readers into the idyllic yet sometimes harsh realities of her characters' lives. The book serves as a reflection on the trials and tribulations faced by the young, all wrapped in a comforting embrace of familial love and moral lessons. Mrs. Molesworth, a prominent figure in children's literature, drew on her own experiences as a mother and her keen observations of the children's psyche, which informed her storytelling. Her ability to capture the essence of childhood, often intertwined with elements of fantasy and real-life challenges, stems from her profound empathy and understanding of children's feelings and perspectives. This depth of insight makes her work deeply resonant and timeless. I highly recommend "Sweet Content" to readers of all ages who seek a poignant exploration of childhood. Molesworth's masterful blending of reality and imagination not only entertains but also encourages reflection on the universal experiences of youth. This novel is a treasure both for those nostalgic for their own childhoods and for new generations discovering its wonder.

    Büyük ormanın ortasında küçük bir göl vardı. Ağaçların arasında kalan gölün küçücük dalgaları, minik midye kabuklarıyla dolu kıyıya vuruyordu. Kıyıda dalgalarla dövülmüş kum taneleri arasında karıncalar sağa sola koşuşturuyordu. Küçük kayalar arasındaki yengeçlerin gözleri bir göle bir kumlara dönüyordu. Kıyının hemen yanında türlü türlü otlar, çiçekler gölün etrafını süslüyordu. Ağaçların arasından gölü ziyarete gelen birçok canlı vardı. Su içmeye gelen tavşanlar, tilkiler, gölde yaşayan kurbağalar, çiçeklerden beslenen kelebekler, arılar, balık avlayan kuşlar ve daha neler neler… Saymakla bitmez.
    
    Ancak biz gelelim kuyruklarını sallaya sallaya, sağa sola devrile devrile yürüyen; arada vak vak öten ördek ailesine. Bu aile küçük bir aile değildi. Oldukça kalabalık bir ördek sürüsüydü. Yaklaşık yirmi yavru, onların anne ve babaları, teyzeleri, diğer akrabaları hepsi bir arada geziyorlardı. Otuz beş - kırk ördekten oluşuyordu bu büyük ördek sürüsü.

    First in the New York Times–bestselling series! “A world in which humans and fairy-tale creatures live side-by-side . . . Madcap adventure.” —School Library Journal   Orphaned sisters Sabrina and Daphne are sent to live with their newly discovered grandmother, Relda Grimm, in the strange town of Ferryport Landing. The girls soon learn a family secret: that they are descendants of the famous Brothers Grimm, whose book of fairy tales is actually a history book and whose characters are still alive in Ferryport, New York.   When a terrorizing giant goes on a rampage through the town, it’s up to the Sisters Grimm to stop him and to solve the mystery of who set the giant loose in the first place. Was it corrupt Mayor Charming, formerly Prince Charming, who desperately wants his kingdom back? The Three Not-So-Little Pigs, the shifty town cops? Or Snow White or Jack the Giant Killer or one of the many other fairy-tale characters who seem to have it out for the young sisters Grimms?   Fast paced, with familiar characters in new surroundings and adventure, and cleverly inserted vocabulary lessons, this book, and this series, are special for young readers.   This anniversary edition of the beloved Sisters Grimm series is the perfect opportunity for existing fans to revisit the adventures of the Grimm family and for new readers to discover the magic of the series for the first time.  “Kids will love Sabrina and Daphne’s adventures as much as I did.” —Sarah Michelle Gellar, star of Buffy the Vampire Slayer  “Adventure, laughs, and surprises kept me eagerly turning the pages.” —R. L. Stine, New York Times–bestselling author of the Goosebumps series
