From Patrick Benson, the illustrator of Owl Babies, comes the read-aloud story of Raju the baby elephant and his mummy who set out on a great jungle adventure. Raju follows his mother, holding tightly onto her tail, as they bravely journey across a wide river, battle the tall grass and delve into the deep, dark forest ... meeting snapping crocodiles, slithering snakes and ferocious tigers along the way. But where are Raju and his mummy going? What will they see in the end? Little tired Raju keeps asking, "When can we go home again?" and, each time, his mummy replies, “Soonâ€. This lyrical story transports readers to the lush, wild Indian jungle and exquisitely captures the fear and excitement of new experience.Please ask if you need a specific version.

This wise little book of 150 meditations is like a breast cancer support group. It is exactly what a woman recuperating in her hospital bed or during any of the other milestones of treatment and recovery might need—the advice and wisdom of other women who have preceded her in confronting breast cancer. Gathered here are moving reflections, anecdotes, and practical information for women concerned with or diagnosed with this disease. Built upon the experiences of women of all ages–women who have undergone all types of breast surgery and treatments from lumpectomy and mastectomy to radiation and chemotherapy; women who are single, married, divorced, widowed, straight, gay–the reflections touch upon topics as universal as fear and grief and as intimate as sex. The meditations help women: • discover healing insights and support • explore options for defining a “new normal” • commit to living each and every moment, fully and fearlessly Every three minutes a woman in America is diagnosed with breast cancer. Shocking but true. And The Language of Healing is a place for all those women to find comfort and strength, day by day, and a reminder that breast cancer patients – at any stage of the disease or recovery – are not alone.

Wer kennt ihn nicht, den zynischen, alten Ebenezer Scrooge, der es selbst am Weihnachtsabend bedauert, seinem Angestellten frei geben zu müssen, Bittsteller verjagt und die Einladung seines Neffen zum Weihnachtsessen barsch ablehnt. Scrooge, dessen Name als Bezeichnung für extremen Geiz in die englische Umgangssprache Eingang gefunden hat, gehört eindeutig zu den berühmt-berüchtigsten Figuren der Weltliteratur. Erst durch die Geister vergangener, gegenwärtiger und zukünftiger Weihnachtsfeste erkennt Scrooge den wahren Sinn von Weihnachten.
