Økomusen genbruger er tredje bind i serien om Økomusen. Det er en oplevelsesrig og lærerig børnebog skrevet af Elisabeth Reppel. Bogen er ikke skrevet for at gøre børn til små klimaaktivister, men er et forslag til, hvordan man kan tænke empati og omsorg for Jorden, ind i sin opdragelse, på samme vis som vi gør det med empati og omsorg for hinanden. Tag med på Økomusens rejse, og vær med til at give Jorden bæredygtige gaver. Økomusen elsker vores fine Jord og vil så gerne give den en gave, men den har brug for hjælp til at finde den rigtige gave at give. Derfor besøger den pigen Lisa, som er meget klog. Lisa lærer Økomusen om genbrug, og om at den kan give Jorden en pause, når den arver eller køber brugt i stedet for at købe nyt. Lisa lærer også Økomusen, at den kan give både sig selv og Jorden en gave ved at låne bøger på biblioteket.
KOLLEKTIVET SORTHANDSK UDGIVER LYRIKSAMLING TILLAGT GRAFISK SIDE AF HENRIK SIEGEL OG FORORD AF METTE JENSEN HAYLES. Det Aarhusbaserede kollektiv bestående af Marwan, Michel Svane og Søren Bendz er kendt i musikkens verden, men retter med SOM FOROVEN SOM FORNEDEN nu for alvor fokus mod det skrevne ord.SORTHANDSK tilbyder noget unikt til dansk lyrik i en tid, hvor kampen om sandheden er rå og polariseret, og det selvoplevede traume står i centrum. SORTHANDSKS tekster er politiske, men samtidig båret af en autentisk historiefortælling, hvor ordene skaber afløb for både frustration og vrede, og derudover giver indsigt i minoriteters livsomstændigheder. Dermed kommer lyrikken til at spille en opbyggelig rolle både hos afsender og modtager og virker som solide trædesten ind i et nyt fællesskab. Marwan og resten af SORTHANDSK har aktivt valgt at kanalisere alle følelserne ned i værker, der kan skabe debat og vise generationerne efter dem, at der er andre muligheder end at brænde systemet ned. Det er både selvterapeutisk og helende at beskrive krigens rædsler i Gaza, men også en afgørende håndsrækning til flere marginaliserede grupper, der håber på en etablering af dialog imellem mennesker.Netop ønsket om dialog står helt tydeligt frem, når først bølgerne af frustration og vrede har lagt sig, og håbet stadig runger ordene. Trods et hårdt liv på den yderste kant af samfundet og i evig kamp mod normer og fordomme, trods en krop og et sind, der må være træt – og træt af det hele til tider – så formår Marwan og resten af SORTHANDSK at indgyde tro blandt de mennesker, der krydser deres vej og bliver ramt af de verbale knytnæveslag, de altid sender først afsted, men som forvandler sig til en varm hånd at holde i, efterhånden som budskaberne står tydeligt frem.Sjældent har autenticitet været så smukt i sit udtryk. Det er gadens og undergangens sprog, men det er også menneskets. Mennesket med alle dets fejl og mangler, men med den anmassende trang til at gøre det bedre end sidst. Lyrikken er ubarmhjertig og hjertevarm på samme tid. Den efterlader ingen uberørt af den ubønhørlige energi og vilje til forandring, der ligger bag.Man kan slå sig hårdt på SORTHANDSK, men man kan også blive løftet op til nye erkendelser og ind i et varmt fællesskab, hvor netop de svære følelsesmæssige udfordringer bliver omfavnet. Her bliver der ikke hyklet, og hvor andre bider sig i tungen og holder kæft, så spytter SORTHANDSK blodet ud igen og fortsætter ufortrødent med at konfrontere os med de ubekvemme sandheder, om hvor galt det står til mange steder i Danmark og det systemiske svigt, som mange mennesker udsættes for og fastholdes i.
Præmieret af Statens Kunstfond som et vedkommende og vigtigt værk af høj kunstnerisk kvalitet med flg. begrundelse:"Min blå stol er en fortælling om at finde et ståsted eller måske snarere et siddested i en verden, der føles overvældende og påtrængende. Bogen lever sig utroligt fint ind i barnets univers og taler på barnets præmisser om komplekse følelser, og hvordan man kommer overens med dem. I tegningerne arbejdes med forskellige tegneteknikker og farver som en fin understregning af fortællingen. Det visuelle udtryk og fortællingen væver sig således sammen til en overbevisende og poetisk helhed."Måske har du dage, hvor du ikke kan forstå din familie. Måske har du også følt dig nærmest usynlig i din familie. Så kender du pigen i denne bog – en klog og boblende billedskøn historie om synlighed og identitet. Om at finde sig selv i naturen, kreativiteten og venskabet. Og om at tage penslen i den anden hånd.Min blå stol er skrevet og tegnet af to knalddygtige voksne med velbevarede og kreativt kalibrerede børn indeni: Betina Birkjær og Katrine Louise Jakobsen.

Una historia multicultural que ayudará a los más pequeños a sentirse cómodos en sus nuevas escuelas y a descubrir las alegrías que pueden encontrar en las nuevas comunidades. Un álbum ilustrado lleno de imaginación, que celebra el poder del amor. Gloriana está nerviosa. Es su primer día en la escuela primaria. Su abuela la calma contándole historias sobre su hogar en la República Dominicana. Pero tan pronto Gloriana entra al salón de clases, sus recuerdos del paisaje tropical se desvanecen y empieza a escuchar frases en inglés que ella no comprende. Cuando los niños se acercan para invitarla a jugar, Gloriana se paraliza. Se siente insegura. ¿Cómo existir entre lugares e idiomas tan diferentes? ¿Cómo hacer nuevos amigos hablando dos idiomas? Abuela reconoce ecos de su propio viaje como emigrante en ese primer día de escuela de Gloriana, y la guía para que descubra la confianza en sí misma y en sus culturas.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONAn affirming multicultural story that will help new students stand tall and discover the joys of community at school. This beautifully painted, imaginative picture book celebrates the transformative power of self- soothing. On the first day of elementary school, Abuela soothes Gloriana’s nerves by telling her stories about their family home in la República Dominicana. But as soon as Gloriana enters the classroom, the tropical scenery crumbles and la música is replaced with English phrases she does not understand. When other kids approach her to play, she freezes, uncertain about how to exist in both of her different homes and how to make new friends using her two languages. Abuela recognizes echoes of her own immigration journey on this challenging day at school, and she gently guides Gloriana toward newfound confidence.

"It's 2002--less than one year after the September 11th attacks--and sixth-grader Kamal Rao is tackling a brave new world of challenges, including figuring out who he really is and how he fits in. Even with New York City in its backyard, the suburban town where he lives is anything but open-minded. That means Kamal--frequently picked on and feeling ostracized--usually spends his time alone, making mud pies in the backyard or cooking recipes with his mom and grandma from his family's three cultures. Then, one day, a Pakistani immigrant named Jaz arrives at school, entering Kamal's life and challenging his sluggish movement through the world. As the two boys forge a friendship over their love of exploring the outdoors and eating good food, the newcomer begins to show Kamal how being 'different' isn't a bad thing at all. For the first time, a fire is lit within Kamal--but what will happen when questions of Jaz's origins and his intentions begin to come into question at school and in their town?"--

Story Behind the Book"After writing the twelve-book Christy Miller series for teens, a new teen character showed up on the pages of the final novel. Her name was Sierra Jensen, and she was such a compelling character that readers began asking for a series about Sierra in order to hear more about her life choices. Our family had just moved to Portland at the time, and I found it easy to picture a sixteen-year-old like Sierra shopping at the local vintage clothing stores, hanging out with friends at a garage band concert, and serving at the homeless shelter on weekends." -Robin Jones Gunn

"A quietly astonishing delight unfurls for those who take the time to look beneath the surface."--Kirkus Reviews The world is full of signals, some imperceptible to the eyes of those who didn't learn to see them. That is the heart of Natura, the inaugural bilingual title from Tapioca Stories, where the reader is invited on a journey of discovery. Presented in both English and Spanish, the invisible waits to be revealed on each page--in the leaves, the trees, and the secrets of this metaphorical forest. The lyrical voice resounds with tranquility, offering us a quiet vision of the fleeting miracles of birds, spiderwebs, and deer hidden amid the foliage. It is only through the searching gaze of a child that we can perceive these hidden marvels, capturing their brief existence, for a moment, in our retinas. A monochrome, Prussian blue world expands with great delicacy in the illustrations, tracing shapes, patterns, and silences across each page. The nearly fantastical setting is explored from different perspectives, unveiling the various viewpoints from which these tiny, timid creatures emerge into sight. Overall, this book masterfully achieves a rhythmic harmony between text and illustrations, fostering a profound, impactful reading experience. Here, the silence throbs with vitality and revelation, cultivating the impression that everything within this forest is in suspense. At first sight, it appears to be empty, but when you hold the pages up to the light, another universe is revealed... The ingenious technique of magenta-printed images inside the pages creates a series of astonishing surprises. These are special moments when the reader realizes that what initially appeared to be an empty world is, in fact, brimming with life. Natura is an outstanding book that employs different techniques and intertwines dual narratives to encourage the reader to observe their surroundings with a fresh perspective. The minimalist aesthetic enhances the book's expressive power, sending shivers down the reader's spine as they are overwhelmed by the inimitable sensation that comes with making a connection with the natural world.
