Wilhelm Busch (1832 - 1908), der geniale Maler-Dichter, der in Mechtshausen bei Seesen ein zur?ckgezogenes Dasein f?hrte, hat sich in seinem Werk den Unzul?nglichkeiten des Lebens verschrieben. Trotz seiner kleinb?rgerlichen Welt um die Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts ist Busch kein gem?tvoller Erz?hler: dazu sind seine Geschichten zu doppelb?dig, ist sein Humor allzusehr Galgenhumor. So lebt er auch 'Der Schmetterlling' - f?r den Leser unschwer am Busch-Ton erkenntlich - von der Mischung aus vordergr?ndigem Humor und gebrochener Biedermeieridylle.
Michel aus L?nneberga, das war ein kleiner Lausejunge, nicht halb so artig wie andere Kinder. Wenn er etwas angestellt hatte, wurde er in den Tischlerschuppen gesperrt, wo er sich jedes Mal ein lustiges Holzm?nnchen schnitzte. Und Michel hatte viel zu schnitzen. Insgesamt 369 Holzm?nnchen.Woran man ungef?hr erkennen kann, wie er war, dieser Michel.Astrid Lindgren wurde 1907 im schwedischen Smaland geboren und starb 2002 im Alter von 94 Jahren in Stockholm. Zu den ber?hmtesten B?chern der »bekanntesten Kinderbuchautorin der Welt« (DIE ZEIT) geh?ren neben Pippi Langstrumpf die Geschichten ?ber die Kinder aus Bullerb?, ?ber Michel, Madita, Kalle Blomquist und Ronja R?ubertochter. Astrid Lindgren wurde u. a. mit dem Friedenspreis des Deutschen Buchhandels, dem Alternativen Nobelpreis, dem Schwedischen Staatspreis f?r Literatur sowie dem Hans-Christian-Andersen-Preis ausgezeichnet.
Growing up an orphan in the Milky Way hasn’t been easy, especially as a teenage girl in the Naval Academy. Unfortunately for Molly Fyde, things are about to get worse.Just as she’s finding her place amongst the boys, her unfair expulsion from the Academy takes away the only two things that truly matter: flying in space and her training partner, Cole.Sent off to a normal school, she feels destined for a dull, unspectacular future.Then, a marvelous discovery changes everything: Her father’s old starship, missing for a decade, turns up halfway across the galaxy. Its retrieval launches Molly and Cole on the adventure of a lifetime, one that will have lasting consequences for themselves and billions of others. What starts off as a simple quest to reconnect with her past, ends up forging a new future. And the forgotten family she hoped to uncover is replaced by a new one she never foresaw: a band of alien misfits and runaways—the crew of the starship .
It’s been ten years since Molly last set foot on her birth planet, and this isn’t how she’d imagined her homecoming. The sky is full of an invading fleet, one powerful enough to threaten the entire galaxy. The new family she has come to rely on—her crew of alien misfits and runaways—are scattered in three directions. As they struggle to reunite, events beyond their control seem to be driving more than just them apart: the universe itself may be torn asunder if the bond between these unlikely heroes is broken.
In just a few short weeks, a group of young orphans have come together to form a family. They have united in the most unlikely of alliances, finding strength in the tight bonds of friendship.In their individual cultures, these orphans were seen as children. At best, they were ignored by their elders. At worse, they are treated as nuisances, told what they could and could not do.But no one ever told them they couldn’t save the universe. Nobody knew they would ever get the chance…
