Wieso? Weshalb? Warum? ProfiWissen. Körper
Die WissensProfis Jette, Lilli, Finn und Ben sind gute Freunde und doch ganz verschieden. Lilli läuft schnell wie der Blitz. Ben verdrückt zwei Mittagessen, ohne dick zu werden. Finn kann ohne Brille die Hand vor Augen nicht sehen. Und seit der neue Mitschüler Carlos da ist, verhält sich Jette irgendwie seltsam... Zusammen mit einer Ernährungsberaterin, dem Schularzt und einem Paralympics-Leichtathleten gehen sie dem menschlichen Körper auf den Grund - und oft sogar am eigenen Leib! Umfassendes Sachwissen, authentische Geräusche, viel Musik und das Eröffnungslied 'Was wollt ihr wissen?' sorgen für ein spannendes HörErlebnis. Das Hörspiel basiert auf dem gleichnamigen Buch von Andrea Schwendemann und Rolf Bunse aus dem Ravensburger Buchverlag.

The True Story of Sitting Bull from multi-award-winning author Joseph Bruchac.

An ALA Notable Book "Being named Slow and growing up in the shadow of a great warrior hardly dwarfed the prospects of this protagonist: he grew up to be Sitting Bull.

Rising Above: Inspiring Women in Sports
Growing up in a crime-plagued, gang-infested neighborhood, Venus and Serena Williams were led to believe their environment was not a place where dreams could come true. It took a relentless determination, a burning desire to be the best, and a willingness to conquer racial barriers for them to emerge as tennis legends. Simone Biles was raised by a single mother with addiction issues, forcing her grandparents to intervene. But Simone soon discovered balance beams and gymnastics mats, setting her on a path toward Olympic greatness. Carli Lloyd, meanwhile, believed her youth soccer career was really starting to take off, only to be cut from her team. Instead of quitting the sport she loved, Carli rebuilt her confidence from the ground up, ultimately becoming one of the leaders on the World Cup Champion U.S. Women's Soccer team. The athletes featured in this book met earth-shaking challenges head on, and through hard work and perseverance, went on to conquer the sports world. This collection of mini biographies, complete with first-hand content drawn from interviews, is a source of inspiration and self-empowerment for kids and sports fans of all ages.

At seventeen, Karen Chen has already achieved what some girls can only dream of-and it's only the beginning for her. The daughter of Taiwanese immigrants, she began figure skating at five. Ten years and many grueling training sessions later, she won a bronze medal at the 2015 US Championships after sustaining a nearly career-ending ankle fracture a year earlier. In 2017, she became the US National Champion, winning gold twice and receiving the highest score ever recorded for the short program at the US National level. Now for the first time, Karen shares the story of how she got where she is today-and where she's going next. She's already overcome astounding obstacles, and her grit, determination, and positive attitude have made her future truly limitless.
