Väterchen Frost

Endlich ist es so weit: Die böse Stiefmutter bringt ihren Mann dazu, seine eigene Tochter bei Eiseskälte im Wald auszusetzen. Der Alte gehorcht weinend und bekreuzigt sich nach dem Abschied seiner Tochter. Diese sitzt wiederum frierend im Wald, als Väterchen Forst erscheint. Gedemütigt begegnet sie ihm, denn ihr ist klar, dass Gott ihn geschickt hat, um ihre sündige Seele zu holen. Denn jeder, der mit dem Zepter des Frosts berührt wird, verfällt in einen eisigen Schlaf, aus dem er nie wieder erwacht. Doch Väterchen Frost ist sehr angetan von ihrer freundlichen, demütigen Art und schenkt ihr einen Pelzmantel. Er besucht sie noch zwei weitere Mal und belohnt ihre Freundlichkeit und Demut, doch die gierige Stiefmutter zu Hause hat andere Pläne für die ungewollte Stieftochter ...-

Up a Road Slowly

Julie would remember her happy days at Aunt Cordelia’s forever. Running through the spacious rooms, singing on rainy nights in front of the blazing fireplace. There were rides in the woods on Peter the Great, the races with Danny Trevort. Maybe best of all were the precious moments alone in her room at night, gazing at the sea of stars. But there was sadness too—the painful jealousy Julie felt after her sister got married, the tragic death of a schoolmate, and the bitter disappointment of her first love. Sometimes it all seemed like too much to handle. Julie was having a hard time believing life was fair. But she would have to be fair to herself before she could even think about new beginnings. “A book of distinction.”--Saturday Review

Betsy Has a Birthday Chapter 11. ""Understood Aunt Frances"" AUTHOR Dorothy Canfield Dorothea Frances Canfield (1879-1958) was an American author and both an child and adult educational activist. Canfield worked closely with Maria Monterssori in Italy, and was greatly influential in promoting education in the United States. Dorothy Canfield was born in Kansas, but her family traveled as her father's academic career progressed, he eventually became president of Ohio State University. Canfield settled in Vermont with her husband and children, and continued writing professionally. Understood Betsy, her best known work, takes place in a Montessori-style schoolhouse, expressing her educational philosphy, in the guise of an entertaining children's story. COMMENTARY Reviews for Alcazar AudioWorks' production of Understood Betsy Understood Betsy stands near the top of the list of our favorite read-alouds, and so I must admit it was with mingled anticipation and skepticism that we approached this book-on-CD set. It had one thing in its favor, right away - the word ""unabridged"" on the cover. But could the reader do it justice? The answer is a resounding, ""Yes!"" Alcazar AudioWorks has done a marvelous job of bringing Understood Betsy to CD. This CD set was an instant success at our house, from the cheerful man who introduces the book in general and each chapter in particular, to the charming music between chapters (our middle daughter just came into the room, especially to say, ""I like that music!"") to the magic of Bobbie Frohman's reading, bringing the story to life and giving each character an individual voice. Understood Betsy is the story of Elizabeth Ann, an orphan who is torn from the only home she's known, from the tender care of her maiden aunts in the city. She is sent to the last place in the world she'd want to go - to the farm of her country cousins, a dreadful place where - just imagine it! - children are actually expected to do chores! The change in her name, from Elizabeth Ann to ""Betsy,"" is only the first of many changes in her young life in this delightful tale where she grows in understanding, while we readers (or listeners, in this case) learn just which of Betsy's relatives truly understand her wants and needs. If you like to listen to a story read well, I'd highly recommend this one. We have only one complaint: Five hours of playing time is simply not enough! Because this book-on-CD is unabridged, that's all we get, but it certainly left us wanting more. I guess we'll just have to begin again. Reviewed By: Jean Hall - EHO Eclectic Homeschool Online "

Una (simple) historia de amor

Alba va a cumplir dieciocho años. Sus padres se han separado y ahora debe enfrentarse a dos nuevas familias. En su búsqueda por la independencia, ha probado mil trabajos diferentes: ha sido canguro, mensajera, repartidora de pizzas... Ahora trabaja como modelo en una academia de dibujo y toca la guitarra en el metro. Rubén ya es independiente y tiene dieciocho años y medio. Comparte piso con un amigo, pero pronto va a quedarse solo y sin dinero. Trabaja haciendo de estatua, 'alquila' su cuerpo y ha hecho todo tipo de trabajos pintorescos. Es un incorformista por naturaleza que sueña con ser libre. Por eso, Teba, su novia, no le entiende. Alba, Rubén y sus insólitos mundos llenos de trabajos extravagantes, ansias de libertad, inseguridades y malos rollos, están condenados a encontrarse. Pero parece que la vida, el destino y unas cuantas cosas más, no se lo van a poner fácil. Este audiolibro está narrado en castellano. - Jordi Sierra i Fabra nació en Barcelona el 26 de julio de 1947. Tiene una clara y firme vocación de escritor desde muy joven, pues confiesa que dio sus primeros pasos con tan sólo ocho años de edad. Con doce escribió su primera novela larga, de quinientas páginas. Sus padres se mostraron poco entusiasmados con esta actividad, puesto que no confiaban en la profesión de escritor como un trabajo con futuro. Cuando terminó el bachillerato empezó a trabajar en una empresa de construcción. Tuvo sus primeras incursiones profesionales en la música, otra de sus grandes pasiones. Fue uno de los fundadores del programa de la Cadena Ser 'El Gran Musical', y en 1970 abandonó los estudios para convertirse en comentarista musical, lo que le permitió viajar por todo el mundo con grupos y artistas del momento para cubrir sus actuaciones y escribir reportajes.
