About this deal

To everyone around her, George is a boy - but George longs to be like Charlotte, the wise and gentle hero of Charlotte's Web. This short, sweet story of embracing your true self and trusting those around you is a timely addition to the growing awareness of transgender identification in children and young adults.

The boy snorted. “All right, maybe it does say travel agency over the door, but you don’t even have a computer.” Now, I have read many middle grade books and I KNOW, I'm not the intended audience but this one was a bit disappointing. Especially since I enjoyed the opening chapter!The importance of diverse reading can’t be underestimated, according to Benjamin Dean, author of Me, My Dad and the End of the Rainbow. The Strangeworlds Travel Agency looked more like a lost and found office, or a rather specialist antique shop, than a travel agency. So it was hardly surprising that the boy was suspicious—even before the suitcase sprang open. Boy Oh Boyis an entertaining way to meet 30 positive male role models from throughout history. It will inspire allchildren to use their talents, express their passions and stand up for what they think is right. Don’t Lose Your Luggage,” Jonathan snapped. “That’s Rule Number One. If you wear that badge on your arm”— Jonathan nodded at a very faded and torn patch on Hudspeth’s sleeve—“you abide by the rules and requirements. This isn’t just an opportunity for you to—” Een verhaal vol emoties sleurt je mee naar een ontknoping met een beng. Prima slot voor deze magische trilogie vol vriendschap.

No, you listen.” Jonathan came around the desk, his eyes flashing dangerously behind his glasses. “You’re Society members. You know the history of the agency, and you know why those lenses are a restricted item. How dare you keep one, let alone take it with you? I am your Head Custodian. I should strike your names off the ledger right this second.” world building) άκρως απολαυστική, γαργαλάει την εικονοπλαστική δύναμη του εγκεφάλου και ξεπηδώντας από τις σελίδες αποκτά απτή, τρισδιάστατη μορφή και υπόσταση.Strofadia is a land of flight and fantasy, where the people are born with wings and the great floating mountains are seen as the source of fantastic power. There are three floating mountains, with the largest being known as the home of the great Cloud Dragon – keeper of magic and granter of wishes. The people of Strofadia take their magical wishes (in the form of a physical bead-like object) to the dragon, in the hopes that the wish will be granted at the end of the festival when the dragon appears. The blasted thing’s still got hold of me, Hudspeth,” she huffed, sounding more annoyed than frightened, even as the tentacle wrapped itself higher around her leg. When Harriet is hunting for her hearing aid under the bed, the last thing she expects to find is an alien. Soon, she is working alongside her gran to defend the human race. Ahighly accessible story, laced with lively illustrations and lots of laughs. I do know,” Jonathan snapped, drawing himself up so he seemed much taller than his usually unimpressive five-foot-eight. “How—how dare you? You know full well you do not have the authority to wield that.” 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.

Lapinski has not only created endless worlds made up of magic and colour, but characters made up of the same charm to fill them. While it’s necessary to see LGBTQ+ characters in contemporary, real-life stories, it’s also great to see them having adventures and saving the day.” Keď som premýšľala nad tým, akým spôsobom budem hodnotiť túto knihu a čo o nej poviem, riešila som dve strany. I don’t even know where to begin to talk about this series. I have listened to the first on audiobook countless times, especially on days when I feel unwell and need some escapism. There’s a moment in the third book where I literally sat down on my kitchen floor and cried (spoilers but the last book hits, my guys).I finished this book last month, but needed some time with it to digest. This review won’t contain plot or spoilers as you MUST read the first two, and ideally come to the third with no spoilers for the full experience. First of all, the visitor was correct in pointing out that the place was a technological relic. Indeed, the most modern item in Jonathan Mercator’s possession was a typewriter from the 1960s. He liked to type passive-aggressive notes on it and hide them in library books. The desk the typewriter sat upon wouldn’t have been out of place in the office of a Victorian headmaster, and even Jonathan’s clothes looked old. You got the feeling someone might well have died in some of his tweed suits. They were not the sort of thing you’d expect an eighteen-year-old to be wearing. Máme tu jednu veľmi milú a chutnú knihu. Kniha plná fantasy, mágie, dobrodružstva a cestovania. Keďže teraz je zakázané cestovať reálne, zacestujme si aspoň takto.
