  • von S. Lucia Kanter St. Amour
    27,00 €

    Want to know a secret?Moms are multitudes: whole, messy, luminous, intrepid, complicated, vulnerable humans. Moms experience the gamut of thoughts, aspirations and emotions -- including getting mad."It would seem to be for children, but I'm not fussy who reads it" ( - E.B. White) . . .While arguably a children's book for its fun and engaging patter and lively adornments, "Moms Get Mad" doesn't shy from some sophisticated vocabulary (and more power to this fearless feature). What makes for such a compelling book is how it addresses more than one audience, with each cohort getting something special from it. "Mom's Get Mad" accomplishes this with humor, poignancy, and rainbow glitter unicorns.Adorned by the author's original art, jauntily combining watercolor with old school paper, scissors and glue collage (also known as kindergarten skills), "Moms Get Mad" is a creative, touching, funny, reassuring, honest ode to mothers everywhere who feel the triumph and trials of an unrelenting fact: that at the end of each day (if you're lucky), it will start all over again tomorrow (actually, today, in just a few hours. Because it's 3 a.m.).At some point, it serves the interest of both mom and children to transcend mother-child dynamics and glimpse each other's identity as multi-faceted and uniquely storied. This dimensional transformation is the subliminal and lasting gift of "Moms Get Mad."

  • von Thanael Kanter
    23,00 €

    As an eight-year-old in 2013, author Thanael Kanter was quite the chatterbox. His favorite way to start a sentence was with the word imagine . . ."Imagine a flying car with a holographic steering wheel.""Imagine a dog collar that translates your dog's thoughts to words you can hear."Thanael had so many fantastic ideations to share that his mother (and co-author), Lucia, would have to remind him to take bites of his food at the dinner table."Imagine a man who wakes up one morning and gold coins fall from his hair . . ." Thanael mused to Lucia one autumn morning in 2013 over a bowl of already soggy Cheerios . . . and then he continued chattering his imaginings as Lucia listened . . . and began typing. Thus was born this whimsical and transcendent fable, The Money Fairy.It's the chimerical chronicle of an ambitious family man, Armando, in the "Olden Times" living a pleasant life in the fictional Italian Alps village of Cuor della Terra. He awakens one morning to gold coins tumbling from his hair . . .It's a careening tall tale that whisks you from the Italian Alps to Paris to the Midwest of the United States and from Brazil to the craggy, breathtaking shores of Sicily-all in the span of a bedtime story (and with some time-travel and a dash of multiverse just for good measure). It "breaks the fourth wall" by directly addressing the reader and combines old-world folktale elements with contemporary references. It is an utterly enchanting journey that reminds us how magic all around us-every day-is afoot!¿¿¿¿¿¿¿While the authors drop clues as to "what's really going on," there's more than one answer (as in real life) to the mystery of the gold coins!Meet The Characters Armando and his wife, Elisa: a content and industrious couple living in Cuor della Terra, Italy with their four children Elisa's grandmother, Lucia: a tennis champion from Brazil (but before tennis was invented) Francesco Bugatti: a Sicilian tennis champion who is challenged to a match by Lucia, and falls in love with her Marco: Armando's brother, who has sailed across the ocean and lives in Illinois Abraham Lincoln: a friend of Marco's and the sixteenth president of the United States Giuliano Cantore: a famous calendar savant Natanieul Gutriey: a famous Parisian weaver The Puttifurbi: mythical gnomesThe prevailing question, "dear reader," is: Can you figure out "what's really going on"?(wink, wink)
