The Truth About My Unbelievable Summer . . . - Benjamin Chaud - Bog - Chronicle Books - Plusbog.dk

On a Summer Night - Deborah Hopkinson - Bog - Chronicle Books - Plusbog.dk

On a Summer Night - Deborah Hopkinson - Bog - Chronicle Books - Plusbog.dk

Step into the quiet magic of this celebration of summer nighttime and the mystery of a world lit differently by the moon. On a summer night, the world is still. Even the crickets think it’s too hot to sing. But all at once, a girl wakes. In the kitchen, the cat rolls onto its soft paws. A neighbor’s small white dog yaps, a brown rabbit peeks from a hedge, and the leaves of a cherry tree begin to stir in the breeze. Readers witness and wonder: Who has woken them all? In this soothing bedtime story, the quiet of a warm summer night is brought to vivid, magical life with the soft steps of bare feet, the padding of paws, and the bright, golden light of the moon. One by one, each creature is roused and then gently returned to sleep in a lovely and lyrical exploration of wakefulness, restfulness, and the mysterious calm of the night. PERFECT FOR BEDTIME . . . OR ANYTIME: This beautifully illustrated children's book is ideal for soothing young readers to sleep—or encouraging a contemplative break in an energetic day. The story’s engagement with the wonders of nighttime will help children feel comforted by the dark and the prospect of going to sleep rather than afraid of them. READ-ALOUD READINESS: With its lyricism and short refrains, this gentle story is just right for sharing. CONNECTION TO NATURE: This magical book gradually reveals the moon as a character as it wakes girl, cat, dog, rabbit, tree, air, and cloud in turn—and connects them to one another through the welcoming quiet and wonder of a world gilded by moonlight. THE POWER OF SLOWING DOWN: Picture books are often wonderful excuses to slow down and share a moment of gentleness in kids' (and parents') busy lives; this book feels like a deep breath and offers a chance to wonder and reflect. Perfect for: - Kids who can't sleep on hot summer nights - Parents, grandparents, and caregivers seeking a sweet bedtime book - Librarians and storytime leaders looking for a summer read-aloud - Gift givers who want to share a beautiful, lyrical book with someone special - Readers of such classic bedtime stories for kids as Goodnight Moon and The Going to Bed Book

Last Days of Summer - Hugh Holland - Bog - Chronicle Books - Plusbog.dk

Last Days of Summer - Hugh Holland - Bog - Chronicle Books - Plusbog.dk

Explore the captivating world of 1970s California skateboarding through Hugh Holland's lens in Last Days of Summer . This complete archive, enriched with many never-before-seen images, an introduction by acclaimed artist Shepard Fairey, and extensive interviews, unveils the evolution of a legendary subculture and the photographer who documented it all. From 1975 to 1978, Hugh Holland immortalized the burgeoning subculture of skateboarding in California, photographing young sidewalk surfers on the streets of Los Angeles, parts of the San Fernando Valley, Venice Beach, and as far away as San Francisco and Baja California. In four short years, he documented the rise of the sport before it became officially sanctioned and permanently changed by commercialization, brand sponsorships, and safety precautions like helmets and knee pads. In hindsight, this time period held a wild and free innocence that Holland captured beautifully. His images, from suburban backyard haunts to the asphalt streets that connected them, still resonate as an important document of this time and place where legendary Dogtown and Z-Boys skateboarders were just beginning. With their requisite bleach-blond hair, tanned bodies, tube socks, and Vans sneakers, these young outsiders are masterfully captured against a sometimes harsh but always sunny Southern California landscape. While many of Holland’s iconic images are well-known and beloved, Last Days of Summer uncovers unseen gems to create an ultimate must-have collection. Internationally acclaimed artist Shepard Fairey’s foreword speaks to the cultural significance of Holland’s work, and writer Nick Owchar’s extensive interviews with Holland and well-known skateboarders and visual artists, including the legendary Danny Kwock and Ed Templeton, underscores how this photographic time capsule of California youth culture still inspires today. Comprehensive and gorgeously packaged, this is the ultimate coffee-table book for any fan of skateboard culture, vintage photography, and California history.

Dobre Dobre - Laurel Kratochvila - Bog - Chronicle Books - Plusbog.dk

Discover the vast and varied Polish baking tradition, old and new, Jewish and diasporic, in this authoritative collection of 120+ recipes from James Beard Award finalist Laurel Kratochvila. Poland’s distinctive baking culture is a product of its rich and complicated history, from the World Wars to the rise of Communism to the cultural exchange that inevitably happens to a country with seven neighbors and endless migration. Step into the Polish piekarnia (bakery) and be greeted by an abundance of tiny cookies and rugelach, decorative layer cakes and cheesecakes, sweet yeast buns and danishes, and hearty rye breads and sourdough loaves. In this repertoire-expanding baking book, American-born, Berlin-based baker and 2023 James Beard Award finalist Laurel Kratochvila brings you more than 120 familiar and inventive treasures—innovative recipes of her own and from pioneering Polish bakers , including: - Horseradish, Beet, and Summer Greens Bialys - Sunflower Rye Loaf - Plum Butter Carnival Donuts - Rano Piekarnia’s Summer Bilberry Buns - Chocolate and Whipped Cream Warsaw Cake - Karpatka (Cream and Choux Cake) - Soft Iced Toruń Gingerbread - Rose and Almond Jewel Rugelach - Twisted Krakow Bagels - Sauerkraut and Mushroom Rolls - And much more. Vivid storytelling and fascinating historical details illuminate each recipe’s significance: If you want to start a fight with a French person, tell them that baba au rhum is Polish. In the eighteenth century, while exiled in France, Polish King Stanislaw I sent a dry babka back to the kitchen, spurring his pastry chef to soak it in sweetened alcohol to everyone’s delight—and thus, the emblematic French dessert was born in a Polish court. Beautiful photography makes it feel as if you're right there beside Laurel, stepping into a warm bakery on a cold winter's day, picking baskets of wild bilberries in July, and biting into a soft yeasted bun, jammy strawberries oozing down your chin. Cheesecakes, wafer cookies, gingerbread, country loaves : These recipes aren't just for those curious about the new wave of Polish bakeries or nostalgic for the old-world treats or Jewish delights of their childhood—they're for any home baker looking to fill their cookie jars and bread boxes with inspiration.

Ghost Army of World War II - Elizabeth Sayles - Bog - Chronicle Books - Plusbog.dk

“A riveting tale told through personal accounts and sketches along the way—ultimately, a story of success against great odds. I enjoyed it enormously.” —Tom Brokaw The first book to tell the full story of how a traveling road show of artists wielding imagination, paint, and bravado saved thousands of American lives—now updated with new material. In the summer of 1944, a handpicked group of young GIs—artists, designers, architects, and sound engineers, including such future luminaries as Bill Blass, Ellsworth Kelly, Arthur Singer, Victor Dowd, Art Kane, and Jack Masey—landed in France to conduct a secret mission. From Normandy to the Rhine, the 1,100 men of the 23rd Headquarters Special Troops, known as the Ghost Army, conjured up phony convoys, phantom divisions, and make-believe headquarters to fool the enemy about the strength and location of American units. Every move they made was top secret, and their story was hushed up for decades after the war's end. Hundreds of color and black-and-white photographs, along with maps, official memos, and letters, accompany Rick Beyer and Elizabeth Sayles’s meticulous research and interviews with many of the soldiers, weaving a compelling narrative of how an unlikely team carried out amazing battlefield deceptions that saved thousands of American lives and helped open the way for the final drive to Germany. The stunning art created between missions also offers a glimpse of life behind the lines during World War II. This updated edition includes: - A new afterword by co-author Rick Beyer - Never-before-seen additional images - The successful campaign to have the unit awarded a Congressional Gold Medal History and WWII enthusiasts will find The Ghost Army of World War II an essential addition to their library.
