      In het hart van de winter, als de dagen het kortst zijn, wordt in alle culturen, sinds ver voor het begin van onze christelijke jaartelling, feest gevierd als de dagen weer langer worden en het zonlicht terugkeert. En bij dat feest horen verhalen. De oude Egyptenaren verhaalden over de geboorte van de zonnegod Osiris, de Grieken noemden hem Helios. De Kelten hadden Belenos, de Chinezen Xihu, de Perzen vertelden over Mithras. Het zijn verhalen over hoop en verbondenheid, om ons eraan te herinneren dat het goede zal overwinnen, over het wonder dat er altijd een nieuw begin is.Kom vanavond met verhalen… bevat vijftien hartverwarmende, waargebeurde verhalen van meestervertellers voor aan de kersttafel, rond de kerstboom of gewoon voor bij de centrale verwarming. Want wat is een mooier cadeau om door te geven dan een kerstverhaal?

      A vast amount of plastic waste - twice the size of the United States - is floating in the Pacific Ocean. Welcome to the Great Pacific Garbage Path: the Plastic Soup. Plastic is an incredible material we can't do without, but it also creates the biggest pollution problem imaginable. This is something Jesse Goossens discovers during her travels and conversations across the United States and Europe. Her blogs and interviews are shocking, fascinating and dismaying. In this full-color book, she uncovers the effects of plastic waste on our health and on the environment, not only in the Pacific Ocean, but everywhere on earth.
