Illus. in full color. "Mr. Piggott and his sons are a male chauvinist lot who, outside of yelling for their dinner, don't exercise themselves much around the house. When Mrs. Piggott finally tires of the endless chores that sandwich her workday, she leaves the menfolk on their own, with a note saying, 'You are pigs.' With the cooking and housework untended, they soon turn genuinely porcine, a transformation Browne foreshadows with pig faces on the wallpaper, vases, fireplace, phone. As in most of Browne's art, there is more than a touch of irony and visual humor here. Fun to read aloud."--Bulletin, Center for Children's Books.

'I had sent my heroine straight down a rabbit-hole without the least idea what was to happen afterwards,' wrote Dodgson, describing how Alice was conjured up one 'golden afternoon' in 1862 to entertain his child-friend Alice Liddell. In the nonsensical Wonderland and the back-to-front Looking-Glass kingdom, order is turned upside-down: a baby turns into a pig; time is abandoned at a tea-party; and a chaotic game of chess makes a 7-year-old a Queen.
From the inexhaustible imagination of Ian McEwan--a master of contemporary fiction and author of the Booker Prize-winning national bestseller Amsterdam --an enchanting work of fiction that appeals equally to children and adults. First published in England as a children's book, The Daydreamer marks a delightful foray by one of our greatest novelists into a new fictional domain. In these seven exquisitely interlinked episodes, the grown-up protagonist Peter Fortune reveals the secret journeys, metamorphoses, and adventures of his childhood. Living somewhere between dream and reality, Peter experiences fantastical transformations: he swaps bodies with the wise old family cat; exchanges existences with a cranky infant; encounters a very bad doll who has come to life and is out for revenge; and rummages through a kitchen drawer filled with useless objects to discover some not-so-useless cream that actually makes people vanish. Finally, he wakes up as an eleven-year-old inside a grown-up body and embarks on the truly fantastic adventure of falling in love. Moving, dreamlike, and extraordinary, The Daydreamer marks yet another imaginative departure for Ian McEwan, and one that adds new breadth to his body of work

Politická korektnost a smrt veřejné rozpravy v moderní Británii Známý britský novinář Anthony Browne se ve svém eseji zabývá jedním z klíčových fenoménů současného veřejného života – politickou korektností. Na rozdíl od ostatních textů, které se k politické korektnosti staví kriticky, však neulpívá na okrajových jevech, jakými jsou leckdy komicky neústrojná „korektní“ pojmenování. Politickou korektnost chápe jako ideologii, jež výrazně formuje nejen vyjadřování, ale hlavně myšlení a postoje jednotlivců i skupin, zvláště těch mediálně a politicky aktivních. Kde se vzala ideová struktura, v jejímž jménu je moderní západní člověk ochoten tolerovat cenzuru a autocenzuru? Jaké jsou její kořeny? A komu a čemu v konečném důsledku slouží? To jsou jen některé z velmi provokativních otázek, jež si autor v této knize pokládá. Vydání první
