Product Information

The Seren really don't feel like much of a threat. First because we're told a lot, but not shown a lot, which is always a buzzkill. Second, there only seemed to be one main Seren dude, which kinda defeats the purpose of there being an entire group that has been a threat for so long. Third, because quite frankly... they are boring villains. Their whole motivation is 'we want to live forever' and only at the end we suddenly get a slightly more interesting line about 'eliminating all non-magic folk so magic peeps can reign supreme', but that was literally one line at the very end, why????

To everyone around her, George is a boy - but George longs to be like Charlotte, the wise and gentle hero of Charlotte's Web.

Jonathan, I never could get a grip on his age. At the one hand he felt like 14-15, but on the other hand also 30. It was utterly confusing for me. We’ll do better, next time,” Hudspeth interrupted dismissively, helping his wife to her feet. “You all right, Mori?” Ik houd hiervan zoals ik houd van de serie over Tilly en de boekdwalers, zoals ik houd van Het ministerie van oplossingen, en ja, zoals ik houd van Harry Potter. Poviete si, že ale ja nie som cieľovou skupinou - máte pravdu. A tu je to, v čom spravilo vydavateľstvo chybu, keď to prirovnali k Harrymu Pooterovi (dvanásťročná hlavná postava a mágia v príbehu k tomu totiž nestačí) - Harry Potter síce je detská kniha, no môže niečo dať čitateľovi v každom veku. This wonderful celebration of a wide range of LGBTQ+ heroes - both famous and less well-known - is a beautiful book and highlights the lives of some truly inspirational people.Rozhodla som sa pre druhú možnosť, keďže nemám vo svojom okolí žiadne mladé deti a nie som si istá, ako by som vnímala tú knihu v tej dobe ja. MYSLÍM SI, že by sa mi v tej dobe páčila a tešila by som sa na druhý diel. Desaťročný čitateľ nebýva veľmi náročný.

All right,” Mori said gently. “We’re sorry. We didn’t think. And we’ll do better with the guidebook, next time. And the suitcase. Not come as close to losing it, I mean.” Presenting herself as Julian, Jordan successfully auditions for an all-male a capella group and is forced to consider what it means to be female, male and, ultimately, herself. A refreshingly complex and entertaining story of self-discovery.
