Playing escort to a spoiled daughter of one of his father's lords on the dangerous southern road was not a task he ever expected to be saddled with.

Capturing the magic of a classic children's story about a sugarplum fairy, Andrea Antico sets the stage for an imaginative winter narrative about a bare deciduous tree living in the middle of an evergreen forest.Neglected and even abused by children who come to play and picnic in the forest, the tree rues the loss of its vibrant summer self. The legendary fairy discovers it drooping amidst the forest greenery and voila! with her wand, transforms it into a sugarplum tree.Charming illustrations make vivid the elements of Antico's story; initial disdain for ugliness (the poor tree), recognition of hidden value (discovering beauty in the tree once it was decorated), and the heartwarming benefits of kindness (the ultimate fun around the tree, then its spillover goodness to family and friends).Young readers see without being told in so many words the rewards of inclusion. It's a skillfully executed lesson in humanity, one created by an elementary school teacher and librarian who knows kids-and whose grasp of young children's capacities is obvious.She has added the bonus of concrete suggestions for teachers (and presumably parents) to enhance the reading of telling of the book. And Virginia Small's delightful, sometimes surprising illustrations add fillip to her work.

Doch dann, vor einer Götterstatue entbrennt plötzlich ein Disput zwischen dem Christ Octavius und dem philosophischen Atheisten Caecilius. Minucius Felix soll als Dritter in der Mitte zwischen beiden Schiedsrichter sein in einem Wettstreit der Argumente auf höchstem Niveau, wo es am Ende nur einen Sieger geben kann.Dieser Dialog ist ein literarisches und apologetisches Meisterwerk des frühen Christentums, als die Lehre der Apostel noch lebendig und frisch war, die Gesellschaft aber argwöhnisch gegenüber den Christen. Minucius Felix berichtet uns kurzweilig und eindrücklich, mit welchen Anschuldigungen die Christen seinerzeit konfrontiert wurden, wie sie sich dagegen wehrten, und gibt uns nebenbei einen Kurs in antiker Mythologie und Geschichte.
