Králík Remcík je už zase nespokojený! Jaro je sice tady, ale vůbec neprobíhá podle jeho představ. Medvědice Brumla má skvělý nápad, jak Remcíkovi zlepšit náladu… No přeci prací! Při pořádné námaze určitě králík na všechny smutky zapomene. Ale Remcík má jiný plán. Co takhle vydatse přes jezero a zkusit najít dokonalý svět? Takové místo jistě existuje. Ale když se dva kamarádi vydávají na dobrodružnou cestu, která vede přes vodu, učí se novým věcem a poznávají, mimo jiné, hlavně sami sebe, králík Remcík zjišťuje, že dokonalý svět je blíž, než si myslel.
Další příběh o dobrosrdečné medvědici Brumle a škarohlídském králíkovi Remcíkovi, tentokrát se musí postavit zlému lednímu medvědovi.

Jenže Rampouch po zvířátkách chce jediné, aby mu postavila palác a královský záchod. Pomoct by jim mohl snad jen vlk Trhač. Nakladatelská anotace. Kráceno.

Ten Steps to Finding Your Divine Path When Life is Not Turning Out Like You Wanted
The old Yiddish proverb, “We plan, God laughs,” expresses a truth everyone can relate to. At every stage of life we make plans, setting out where we want to go and imagining what we will be like when we have “arrived.” But things have a way of turning out not quite as we hoped or expected.In WE PLAN, GOD LAUGHS, Sherre Hirsch argues that too often our plans are limited to ones we think up at bedtime, or are devised by our parents, or by what looks good on a résumé. Addressing serious spiritual issues, Hirsch takes readers through ten basics steps for formulating a plan that reflects who we are now and who we want to be—a plan that is alive, organic, and in sync with God.Hirsch teaches the importance of letting go and recognizing that even the most ordinary life is extraordinary in the eyes of God. She makes no foolish promise that life will turn out as we plan, but shows that with hope, faith, and belief, we can change our lives for the better and make a positive difference in the lives of others.

Textová a obrazová koláž otisků paměti Rotaváků, obyvatel malého příhraničního městečka v kopcích na linii dějin, zachycuje vzpomínky na dětství a rodinné vztahy. Hlavní postava vzpomíná na babičku, která bydlela v bílém domě u lesa, kde trávila šťastné chvíle. S babičkou a dědečkem měla studánku a psa, což jí přinášelo radost. Na cestu k nim dostávala kočárek s panenkou, ale musela se vyvarovat vajíček, aby se vyhnula nehodám. V domácnosti nebyl vodovod a v kuchyni stály kýbly s vodou, což vedlo k nechtěným situacím. Jazyková bariéra mezi ní a babičkou, která nemluvila česky, byla výrazná, a matka se obávala mluvit německy kvůli traumatům z války. V obchodě čelila nepříjemnostem za to, že neovládala jazyk. Hlavní postava si pamatuje, jak se začala učit německy až ve škole, když se přihlásily děti z Glasbergu. Kniha, podpořená městem Rotava a s pomocí Petra Rojíka, byla vytvořena v letech 2014 až 2016 pro Post Bellum, s ilustracemi Elišky Vrbové a jazykovou úpravou Aničky Vrbové.
“Comparison to the Harry Potter series seems inevitable . . . It is a breathtakingly exciting novel.”—The New York Times A girl from the forest arrives in a bustling kingdom with no name and no idea why she is there, only to find herself at the center of a world at war. She enlists at Pennyroyal Academy, where princesses and knights are trained to battle the two great menaces of the day: witches and dragons. There, given the name “Evie,” she must endure a harsh training regimen under the steel glare of her Fairy Drillsergeant, while also navigating an entirely new world of friends and enemies. As Evie learns what it truly means to be a princess, she realizes surprising things about herself and her family, about human compassion and inhuman cruelty. And with the witch forces moving nearer, she discovers that the war between princesses and witches is much more personal than she could ever have imagined. Set in Grimm’s fairytale world and ideal for non-princesses and princess fans alike, M.A. Larson’s Pennyroyal Academy masterfully combines adventure, humor, and magical mischief. “No one rescues Pennyroyal princesses; they rescue themselves.”—Reese Witherspoon
