      The Blurry Rules Book

      E£65.00

      The Blurry Rules Book is all about ethics. Explain THAT to an 8- to 12-year-old girl! Author, Nancy Rue, approaches the subject by talking about those gray areas and hard-to-answer questions that aren’t so clearly addressed in the Ten Commandments. Children clearly understand "Thou shalt not kill", but what about "thou shalt not hate the guts of the girl who deliberately snubs you?

      The Giver

      E£160.00

      The Giver, the 1994 Newbery Medal winner, has become one of the most influential novels of our time. The haunting story centers on twelve-year-old Jonas, who lives in a seemingly ideal, if colorless, world of conformity and contentment. Not until he is given his life assignment as the Receiver of Memory does he begin to understand the dark, complex secrets behind his fragile community. Lois Lowry has written three companion novels to The Giver, including Gathering Blue, Messenger, and Son.

        E£85.00

        Realism diminishes reality, weakens it, and falsifies it. It does not take into account our main facts and our basic concerns such as love, death, and astonishment, it introduces the human being into an imperfect and alienated perspective, and ignores that reality exists in our dreams in our imagination.

          The Legends of the Jews Vol. 2 From Joseph to the Exodus

          E£535.00

          One of the masterworks of twentieth century Jewish scholarship was Louis Ginzberg's Legends of the Jews, or, more accurately, Legends of the Bible... For scholars, Ginzberg's book is a monumental work of research. But for the general reader, it is a gateway into a world, a world where the imagination roamed and the spirit was free... The Bible will never be the same for you again, if you do.

            Moons above the family tree: Vol. 2

            E£170.00 E£68.00

            I am drawn to the poem of the poet, a man from the inside, an ulterior motive .. I turn it in my hands with joy, like a strange-wing butterfly ... as a wild flower that opened in a polar or tropical climate ... its aesthetic atoms smash each other and ignite letters and light up the breaks..and he digs his way with his ribs, nails and feathers of his eyelids .
