Sam Numit: Otra canción en el paraíso

En esta ocasión es el propio Sam la víctima de un insólito robo que hará que la copia original (así como el máster y la copia de trabajo) de su último disco desaparezcan misteriosamente del estudio... Una trepidante historia policiaca y de aventuras en la quinta entrega de la serie de aventuras del detective más rockero de la historia. Este audiolibro está narrado en castellano. Sam Numit es un rockero de éxito que ha compartido escenario con músicos de la talla de Sting, Jim Morrisson o Freddie Mercury. Pero además de músico, Sam Numit es un detective especializado en la investigación de robos, chantajes, asesinatos... Nadie mejor que él conoce los entresijos del mundillo de la música y sus peculiaridades. Y es que aunque no lo parezca, no es todo fama y glamour en la industria musical... Jordi Sierra i Fabra nació en Barcelona el 26 de julio de 1947. Es conocido por su obra como escritor de literatura infantil y juvenil y su trabajo como periodista musical. Su vocación de escritor es clara y firme desde muy temprano: confiesa que dio sus primeros pasos con tan sólo ocho años de edad y a los doce años ya escribió su primera novela larga, de quinientas páginas. Pese a su clara vocación no contaba con la aprobación o el entusiasmo de sus padres, quienes al acabar el bachillerato le obligaron a trabajar en una empresa de construcción durante el día y a estudiar para ser aparejador durante la noche. De su infancia ha dicho que 'fui tres veces reprimido: por mi padre, por el régimen y por la escuela franquista'. Aún así, su determinación y su tenacidad son más fuertes que cualquier obstáculo y sus insistentes cartas semanales a la cadena de radio Cadena Ser le llevaron a convertirse en uno de los fundadores de la revista 'El Gran Musical' en 1968. En 1970 pudo abandonar los estudios para convertirse en comentarista musical, lo que le permitió viajar por todo el mundo con grupos y artistas del momento mientras cubría sus actuaciones y escribir reportajes.

Sam Numit: Una altra cançó al paradís

En aquesta ocasió és el mateix Sam la víctima d'un insòlit robatori que farà que la còpia original (així com el màster i la còpia de treball) del seu últim disc desaparegui misteriosament de l'estudi... Una trepidant història policíaca i d'aventures en el cinquè lliurament de la sèrie d'aventures del detectiu més 'rocker' de la història. Aquest audiollibre està narrat en català. Sam Numit és un rocker d'èxit que ha compartit escenari amb músics de la talla de Sting, Jim Morrisson o Freddie Mercury. Però a més de músic, Sam Numit és un detectiu especialitzat en la recerca de robatoris, xantatges, assassinats... Ningú millor que ell coneix els secrets del món de la música i les seves peculiaritats. I és que, encara que no ho sembli, en la indústria musical no és tot fama i glamur... Jordi Sierra i Fabra va néixer a Barcelona el 26 de juliol de 1947. És conegut per la seva obra com a escriptor de literatura infantil i juvenil i el seu treball com a periodista musical. La seva vocació d'escriptor és clara i ferma des de molt petit: confessa que va fer els seus primers passos amb tan sols vuit anys d'edat i als dotze anys ja va escriure la seva primera novel·la llarga, de cinc-centes pàgines. Malgrat la seva clara vocació, no comptava amb l'aprovació o l'entusiasme dels seus pares, que en acabar el batxillerat el van obligar a treballar en una empresa de construcció durant el dia i a estudiar per ser aparellador durant la nit. De la seva infància ha dit que 'vaig ser tres vegades reprimit: pel meu pare, pel règim i per l'escola franquista'. Tot i així, la seva determinació i la seva tenacitat són més fortes que qualsevol obstacle i les seves insistents cartes setmanals a la cadena de ràdio Cadena Ser el van portar a convertir-se en un dels fundadors de la revista 'El Gran Musical' el 1968. El 1970 va poder abandonar els estudis per convertir-se en comentarista musical, la qual cosa li va permetre viatjar per tot el món amb grups i artistes del moment mentre cobria les seves actuacions i escrivia reportatges.

Santa's Brother Keeper O'Reilly: A Christmas Tale of Long Ago

This tale begins with the story of two brothers, Keeper and Santa, enjoying a blissful childhood in the magical Kingdom of the Christmas Mountains in northern New Brunswick. They play along side buffalo, reindeer, rabbits, and all the creatures that make up this mystical land under the watchful eye of their parents, Papa and Mamma Claus. One year in the springtime of long ago, while the boys were fishing along side the river bank, a great storm was brewing all around the Christmas Mountains. The lakes, rivers and streams overflowed their banks, and the winds blew in a misty magical fog from the north, covering the entire region. In all the confusion, Keeper is swept far away in his tiny wooden fishing boat, only to drift ashore on the banks of an mysterious new world known as the isle of Ireland. Keeper is lovingly taken in and raised by the Leprechauns, the indigenous peoples of this mysterious land. They soon come to recognize the magical powers he already possess, and eventually appoint him apprentice Master of Leprechauns, teaching him all of their secrets. Missing his family, he realizes he can use his combined powers to travel back to his homeland to journey through the magical forests and hopefully find the magical gate of the Christmas Village to reunite with his Brother Santa and all of his Christmas Mountain family..

Sarah, Furry-Purple & Friends. The Moon Adventure

Ages 3-10) Sarah has a special gift. She can dream about anything she wanted at night. All she had to do was think about it before falling asleep. Her favorite dream was to play on the moon.

Another character named Grump-O-Lux, although scary in appearance, comes to the rescue after Sarah and Furry-Purple free him from red licorice. And Miss Witch helps guide them through the dark Forest of Wonder by giving them carrots to eat to help their eyes become strong enough to see. Sarah, Furry-Purple & Friends helps children to understand the meaning of "Don't Judge A Book By It's Cover".
