Описание: Matilda lives at Little Bagwood Farm with her mummy; daddy; and her older sister, Polly. For her seventh birthday, she gets a beautiful Welsh Mountain Pony, her name is Diva. All through the summer, they have so much fun together, going to shows and gymkhanas. Late in August, Diva has a foal, her foal is a unicorn. Because Diva is a Welsh pony, he is not a full unicorn. His sire (his father) is the Golden King, King of all the Unicorns, horses and ponies. The foal's name is Prince Argent, The Silver Prince. Time passes and Prince is maturing, and Matilda is now riding him. It is near to midsummer and very hot, so they go to the forest and when riding in the forest, a fairy princess, Princess Kessia, appears and gives a message from the Golden King. Matilda and Prince must go to the henge of stones on midsummer's day at midday and then the magic will begin and he will become a full unicorn. This is only the beginning of their adventures together.

Описание: A beautifully illustrated dictionary of words from around the world that describe experiences of happiness for which there are no equivalents in the English language. Have you ever had a feeling that you couldn't quite describe because there was no word in English that captured it? Our ability to fully experience moments of joy in our lives can be limited by the words at our disposal. In this magical book, psychologist Tim Lomas surveys words from around the world to help readers put their finger on feelings of happiness that before might have lingered for only a moment in their mind's eye before disappearing. The ideal gift for language lovers, or for anyone looking for a megadose of pure joy, Happiness--Found in Translation features such "untranslatable" words as: Bazodee A Creole (Trinidad and Tobago) word to describe a dizzy and dazed happiness, a bewildered, discombobulated joy. Charmolypi A Greek word for the sad, joy-making sorrow when happiness and sadness intermingle. W w i A Chinese term for natural, spontaneous, and effortless action, skilfully flowing with the currents of life. Happiness--Found in Translation gives readers access to the great happiness that the world's languages have to offer.

Описание: How embracing untranslatable terms for well-being--from the Finnish sisu to the Yiddish mensch--can enrich our emotional understanding and experience.
Western psychology is rooted in the philosophies and epistemologies of Western culture. But what of concepts and insights from outside this frame of reference? Certain terms not easily translatable into English--for example, nirvāṇa (from Sanskrit), or ag pē (from Classical Greek), or turangawaewae (from Māori)--are rich with meaning but largely unavailable to English-speaking students and seekers of wellbeing. In this book, Tim Lomas argues that engaging with "untranslatable" terms related to well-being can enrich not only our understanding but also our experience. We can use these words, Lomas suggests, to understand and express feelings and experiences that were previously inexpressible.
Lomas examines 400 words from 80 languages, arranges them thematically, and develops a theoretical framework that highlights the varied dimensions of well-being and traces the connections between them. He identifies three basic dimensions of well-being--feelings, relationships, and personal development--and then explores each in turn through untranslatable words. nanda, for example, usually translated as bliss, can have spiritual associations in Buddhist and Hindu contexts; kefi in Greek expresses an intense emotional state--often made more intense by alcohol. The Japanese concept of koi no yokan means a premonition or presentiment of love, capturing the elusive and vertiginous feeling of being about to fall for someone, imbued with melancholy and uncertainty; the Yiddish term mensch has been borrowed from its Judaic and religious connotations to describe an all-around good human being; and Finnish offers sisu--inner determination in the face of adversity.
Expanding the lexicon of well-being in this way showcases the richness of cultural diversity while reminding us powerfully of our common humanity. Lomas's website, www.drtimlomas.com/lexicography, allows interested readers to contribute their own words and interpretations.

Описание: The winner of The Great American Baking Show shares her story of personal growth and more than 100 delicious recipes.NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR BY TIME OUT AND TASTE OF HOME - "As much about a collection of recipes that makes your mouth water and tugs at your heart with food memories as it is about the chronicles and life lessons of a true comeback kid."--Carla Hall Popular baking personality and lawyer turned baker Vallery Lomas was ecstatic when she learned she won the third season of The Great American Baking Show. However, her win was never seen by the world--Vallery's season was pulled after just a few episodes when one of the judges became a focal point in a Me Too accusation. Rather than throwing in her whisk and lamenting all of the missed opportunities she hoped to receive (Book deal! Product endorsements! TV show!), she held her head high and hustled--which resulted in her getting press coverage everywhere from CNN to People magazine. Now, Vallery debuts her first baking book. With 100 recipes for everything from Apple Cider Fritters to Lemon-Honey Madeleines and Crawfish Hand Pies to her Grandma's Million Dollar Cake. Vallery shares heirloom family recipes from her native Louisiana, time spent in Paris, The Great American Baking Show, and of course sweets and breads inspired by her adopted hometown, New York City. Vallery's "when life gives you lemons, make lemon curd" philosophy will empower legions of bakers and fans to find their inner warrior and bake their best life. "Life Is What You Bake It is not only a collection of recipes but also an empowering book that shows us there's often more possible than we can even imagine."--Julia Turshen, bestselling author of Simply Julia, host of Keep Calm and Cook On podcast, and founder of Equity at the Table

Описание: A new state-of-the-art Russian submarine is stolen. A huge rise in drug smuggling and gold bullion thefts follows. There is one connection tying them all together: Former Soviet Submarine Commander, Alexis, Vlasov, Bazinki. Ruthless and brilliant, Bazinski is always a step ahead of anyone who attempts to stop him. Stealing a nuclear missile may be the daring act that causes him and his crew to fail. It brought scrutiny from U.S. and British Intelligence agencies. The search is on. Commander Nigel Wrightson RNR is brought out of retirement to pursue the elusive Russian in his own well-equipped sub. He is given free rein to use anything at his disposal. He would like nothing more than to blow the sub and its depraved crew to kingdom come, but the cost may be too great. Sergeant Major Taffy Jones, ex-SAS is contracted to find out who is perpetrating the thefts and how they are pulling them off. His pursuit becomes personal. Can he discover Bazinski's Achilles heel or will the Russian Commander find Jones' first? The Search for the Tzar is a tale of cat and mouse that weaves its way around the world, mostly under water. A genius pursued by those of matching intelligence and tenacity. A test of wills, that ultimately only one side can win.
