I gave my life to become the person I am right now. Was it worth it? Would we change if we knew what waits beyond space and time? "With One, the ninth novel from the ever spiritual and imaginative author of Jonathan Livingston Seagull, [Richard] Bach continues his quest for a deeper understanding of human nature. . . . Although the elements of a great science fiction novel are present, the plot is secondary to the novel's theme of humanity's ability to control destiny"--The Boston Herald "If you have ever tried to judge a book by its cover . . . One lives up to this question [in the headline] . . . and more . . . Bach gives the reader much to ponder, so much so in some chapters that the thoughtful may be tempted to read no more than a page at a sitting. Not because it's cumbersome reading, but because the ideas are worth savoring."--USA Today "One is a provocative book . . . it gives beautiful, hope-filled answers."--Indianapolis News "U...

Das kleine Ferkel und der kleine Igel hatten immer geglaubt, es könnte ihnen gar nicht besser gehen. Doch dann klebt jemand über Nacht ein Plakat an ihr Häuschen, auf dem geschrieben steht: "Wer Gott nicht kennt, dem fehlt etwas!" Also machen sie sich auf den Weg, um Gott zu suchen. Wo bitte geht s zu Gott?, fragte das kleine Ferkel klärt Kinder auf humorvolle Weise über die drei Weltreligionen Judentum, Christentum und Islam auf. Die Frage, ob einem religionsfreien Kind "etwas fehlt", wird dabei aus der Perspektive des weltlichen Humanismus beantwortet: "Und die Moral von der Geschicht: Wer Gott nicht kennt, der braucht ihn nicht.!" Eine FAQ-Seite hat der Autor unter zusammengestellt. Product details For ages 6+ Format ...

Kids love music. They're natural singers and dancers, and they improvise every time they play. They were born for jazz! And Welcome to Jazz was made for them. A follow-up to Welcome to the Symphony - with over 70,000 copies in print - Welcome to Jazz is also written by music educator Carolyn Sloan, and uses Symphony's ingenious, interactive picture-book-and-sound-chip format. Structured around the iconic song "When the Saints Go Marching In," Welcome to Jazz narrates the story of jazz and discusses what the audience is hearing as the band begins to play. Best of all, the sound chips actually demonstrate what's happening - what vocal scatting sounds like, how to pick out a swing beat, and the tones of different instruments, from the trumpet to the clarinet. And in the end, kids can sing along with the band in a traditional call-and-response verse. Product details ...
