Quand il était petit, Pierre ne voulait pas manger sa soupe. « Tu sais ce qui arrive aux petits garçons qui ne veulent pas manger leur soupe ? » lui disait son père, « Eh bien, à minuit, la sorcière Cornebidouille vient les voir dans leur chambre, et elle leur fait tellement peur que le lendemain, non seulement ils mangent leur soupe, mais ils avalent la soupière avec. »
Pierre s'en fichait. Il ne croyait pas aux sorcières. Mais il faut admettre que son père avait raison sur un point: une nuit, à minuit, dans la chambre de Pierre, la porte de l'armoire s'entrouvrit avec un grincement terrible et Cornebidouille fit son apparition. Allait-elle parvenir à faire peur à Pierre ? Ca, c'était beaucoup moins sûr.
Dans La vengeance de Cornebidouille, Pierre avait réussi à faire manger sa propre soupe à l'abominable Cornebidouille, ce qui l'avait illico transformée en potiron… Mais une sorcière se résigne-t-elle à sortir de la vie de ses victimes ? Non ! Plus tard, quand sa maman coupe en deux un potiron pour le dîner et qu'aussitôt une odeur épouvantable se répand, Pierre a une intuition : Cornebidouille est de retour… Il ne se trompe que sur un détail. À présent, elles sont deux et elles veulent se venger. Il va encore falloir ruser !

Liam has always felt a bit like he's stuck between two worlds. This is primarily because he's a twelve-year-old kid who looks like he's about thirty. Sometimes it's not so bad, like when his new principal mistakes him for a teacher on the first day of school or when he convinces a car dealer to let him take a Porsche out on a test drive. But mostly it's just frustrating, being a kid trapped in an adult world. And so he decides to flip things around. Liam cons his way onto the first spaceship to take civilians into space, a special flight for a group of kids and an adult chaperone, and he is going as the adult chaperone. It's not long before Liam, along with his friends, is stuck between two worlds again—only this time he's 239,000 miles from home.
Frank Cottrell Boyce, author of Millions and Framed, brings us a funny and touching story of the many ways in which grown-upness is truly wasted on grown-ups.
It's one giant leap for all boy-kind in Frank Cottrell Boyce's out-of-this-world story: Cosmic, read aloud by actor Daniel Ryan.
Liam is too big for his boots. And his football strip. And his school blazer. But being super-sized height-wise has its advantages: he's the only eleven-year-old to ever ride the G-force defying Cosmic rollercoaster - or be offered the chance to drive a Porsche. Long-legged Liam makes a giant leap for boy-kind by competing with a group of adults for the chance to go into space. Is Liam the best boy for the job? Sometimes being big isn't all about being a grown-up.

Cuento infantil para un mundo incluyente con todos los seres vivos
Crecí en una casa finca con tantas plantas que la gente creía que era un vivero y aunque cerca de allí no vivían otrxs niñxs de mi edad, nunca me hicieron falta porque pasaba todo el tiempo con mis dos amigos perros.
Hace dos años quise con todo mi corazón que adoptáramos un perrito para amarlo y que mis hijos tuvieran la experiencia de crecer con él y entre 1.200 perros del Centro de Bienestar Animal La Perla de la Alcaldía de Medellín Colombia nos enamoramos de uno. Así que hoy queremos presentarles a Cosmo, un perrito que cada día nos enseña más cosas sobre el amor.
En estos días de cuarentena hemos visto un gran interés de la gente en tener perritos y gaticos y nos hace muy felices que puedan hacerlos parte de sus familias, pero al mismo tiempo queremos recordarles que los animales no son objetos y por lo tanto no deberíamos apoyar este negocio comprándolos y además que un animal da mucha felicidad, pero también es una gran responsabilidad de la que hay que estar seguros antes de tomar una decisión como la adopción.

Karina Chopra would have never imagined becoming friends with the boy next door--after all, they've avoided each other for years and she assumes Chris is just like the boys he hangs out with, who she labels a pack of hyenas. Then Karina's grandfather starts tutoring Chris, and she discovers he's actually a nice, funny kid. But one afternoon something unimaginable happens--the three of them are assaulted by a stranger who targets Indian-American Karina and her grandfather because of how they look. Her grandfather is gravely injured and Karina and Chris vow not to let hate win. When Karina posts a few photos related to the attack on social media, they quickly attract attention, and before long her #CountMeIn post--'What does an American look like? #immigrants #WeBelong #IamAmerican #HateHasNoHomeHere'--goes viral and a diverse population begin to add their own photos. Then, when Papa is finally on the road to recovery, Karina uses her newfound social media reach to help celebrate both his homecoming and a community coming together.
