Sinossi

"The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" is an 1820 short story by American author Washington Irving, contained in his collection of 34 essays and short stories titled The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent. Irving wrote the story while living in Birmingham, England.
Along with Irving's companion piece "Rip Van Winkle," "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" is among the earliest examples of American fiction with enduring popularity, especially during Halloween because of a character known as the Headless Horseman believed to be a Hessian soldier who was decapitated by a cannonball in battle.
It has been adapted for the screen several times, including a 1922 silent film and, in 1949, a Walt Disney animation as one of two segments in the package film The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad.
Disponibile da: 25/07/2024.

    Growing up in China as the child of American missionaries, Pearl read and listened to stories from both the East and the West. A story, she thought, was a wonderful way to learn about people and places. Pearl had read and heard about America and her family there, but she had never met her American relatives. When, at the age of 10, she spent a year in America, Pearl came to understand that she was a part of two worlds. Between Two Worlds tells the story of how Pearl Buck worked to increase the understanding between the two worlds she knew.

    In today's society it is easy for adults and children alike to get swept up in social media expectations around what somebody should look like. It is also incredibly easy to jump to conclusions and make judgements about others.  
      
    Jake the Crocodile is about taking a step back to not only look at the outside of a person (or crocodile!) but what is on the inside.  
      
    It is more important than ever to teach our children to be empathic and Jake will form a special place in your child's heart so they stop and think about their judgements of other people and take the opportunity to see past external appearances to open a whole new world of opportunity for friendship.  
      
    Imagine a world where we didn't judge and people were valued for their individual characteristics. Jake will help your child see that there is beauty in everyone, if you just take the time to look.

    Editorial Review Rating: 5 Stars  
    Katz Kan!!! is a fun and educational story that explores new realms and teaches young readers about environmental protection from a fresh perspective. The story also has themes of family, love, and joy. My favourite part of this tale was the characters. Pete Katz and his family are just like any other modern family. They have hardworking parents and children who love the latest music and trending video games. There is also a message about missing home and the heartbreak of losing everything and starting afresh. The characters’ emotions were conveyed beautifully, and readers will resonate with their struggles. Overall, Katz Kan!!! is a well-rounded story that will spark children's imaginations while imparting valuable life lessons. I enjoyed reading this book and highly recommend adding it to your children’s bookshelves.
