The Boy Inventors' Flying Ship - A Skyward Adventure of Young Inventors and Their Flying Creation

Richard Bonner

Summary

In "The Boy Inventors' Flying Ship," Richard Bonner crafts a thrilling adventure that intertwines the realms of youthful ingenuity and early 20th-century technological aspirations. Set against a backdrop of burgeoning scientific discovery, this novel captivates readers with its engaging narrative style and vivid descriptions. Bonner masterfully employs a blend of realism and imagination, painting a picture of a world on the brink of aviation breakthroughs, where the dreams of young inventors take flight in a society rife with skepticism. The story serves not only as a tale of adventure but also as a commentary on the spirit of innovation that characterized the era. Richard Bonner, an author well-versed in the themes of childhood exploration and scientific curiosity, draws upon his own fascination with inventions and flight. His experiences in the early 20th century, a time when aviation was more a fantasy than a reality, deeply informed his writing. Bonner's affinity for encouraging young minds and his belief in the power of imagination are evident throughout the text, offering inspiration to both young readers and aspiring inventors alike. This novel is a must-read for those fascinated by the intersection of imagination and invention. With its rich narrative and relatable characters, "The Boy Inventors' Flying Ship" encourages readers to dream big and challenges them to pursue their ambitions. Perfect for young adults and anyone interested in the spirit of invention, Bonner's work is not only entertaining but also profoundly inspirational.

Kaya - La bambina Extraterrestre...

laura peace

Abbiamo forse dimenticato che non esiste un solo modello di bellezza, ma che, al contrario, può assumere infinite forme diverse? Ci siamo sentiti tutti noi, almeno una volta, ‘’diversi’, provando quasi vergogna o timore.
Kaya è una bambina molto coraggiosa, senza alcun dubbio diversa dai suoi coetanei: seppure così piccola, sa che la diversità è ricchezza. Grazie alla forza dell’amore e dell’amicizia, riuscirà a sradicare tutti i pregiudizi ingiustificati sul suo conto.
Questo audiolibro può aiutare a far comprendere ai propri figli quanto sia importante credere in sé stessi e ad imparare ad apprezzare la realtà per la sua prolifera diversità.
Accade spesso che sia nel mondo degli adulti che in quello dei ragazzi non si capisca quanto siano importanti le differenze. E’ un fenomeno in crescita, soprattutto in un’era tecnologica come la nostra, in cui si cerca di trasmettere la falsa credenza che per essere belli bisogna seguire in tutto e per tutto uno standard.
Dopo aver ascoltato questo audio, i tuoi bambini avranno sviluppato questa consapevolezza, fondamentale per vivere in una società che sia sintesi delle più disparate diversità.
Come sarebbe il nostro pianeta, infatti, se tutto apparisse uguale, plastificato, scialbo? Un mondo grigio, ecco che cosa avremmo! La bellezza salverà il mondo, è vero! Ma ben sapendo che il suo sinonimo più fedele forse è ‘’diversità’’.
Kaya acquisisce la consapevolezza di sé e la capacità di rapportarsi agli altri grazie al sostegno dei suoi genitori e del suo caro amico.
Ora aspetta di essere conosciuta da ciascuno dei vostri figli, per accompagnarli in questa emozionante avventura!

The Pause

Isaac Asimov

The Pause by Isaac Asimov 
The white powder was confined within a thin-walled, transparent capsule. The capsule in turn was heat-sealed into a double strip of parafilm. Along that strip of parafilm were other capsules at six-inch intervals. 
The strip moved. Each capsule in the course of events rested for one minute on a metal jaw immediately beneath a mica window. On another portion of the face of the radiation counter a number clicked out upon an unrolling cylinder of paper. The capsule moved on; the next took its place. 
The number printed at 1 P.M. was 308. A minute later 256 appeared. A minute later, 391. A minute later, 477. A minute later, 202. A minute later, 251. A minute later, 000. A minute later, 000. A minute later, 000. A minute later, 000. 
Shortly after 2:00 P.M. Mr. Alexander Johannison passed by the counter and the corner of one eye stubbed itself over the row of figures. Two steps past the counter he stopped and returned. 
He ran the paper cylinder backward, then restored its position and said, "Nuts!" 
He said it with vehemence. He was tall and thin, with bigknuckled hands, sandy hair and light eyebrows. He looked tired and, at the moment, perplexed. 
Gene Damelli wandered his way with the same easy carelessness he brought to all his actions. He was dark, hairy, and on the short side. His nose had once been broken and it made him look curiously unlike the popular conception of the nuclear physicist.
