„Es war Mord, aber wohl kaum ein Verbrechen.“

Ein Liebling der Londoner Gesellschaft und eine der einflussreichsten Damen in ganz Großbritannien. Ihre unnahbare Schönheit, geheimnisvolle Vergangenheit und brennenden Leidenschaften sind Gegenstand des öffentlichen Interesses. Vom Ladenmädchen bis hin zur Angehörigen des Königshauses – alle sprechen über sie. Sie würde alles dafür tun, die soziale Leiter noch weiter nach oben zu klettern.

Ihr neuestes Vorhaben ist, ihren Mann, Lord George, zu vergiften. Und damit sein Vermögen zu erben und seine Geheimnisse für immer zu vergraben! Ihr Duft spiegelt ihr Wesen wider: ein grün-blumiges Narkotikum.

Entzückend gefährlich.

Ihr Duft
Für die Eingeweihten. Edel und zart, ohne jemals langweilig zu sein. Ein Duft mit tadellosen Manieren. Ein Duft, der nur seine Diskretion verkündet, aber der dich aufmerken lässt. Edle Ingredienzen, ein Meisterstück der Abstimmung, für einen exquisiten Geschmack. Scharfsinn. Witz. Und kaum bist du vom Lebensglück eingelullt, in einer sanften Träumerei beim Nachmittagstee – erinnert er dich daran, dass es eine bestimmte Finesse gibt, mit der nur Menschen mit Charakter umzugehen wissen. Bescheiden erhebend. Immer bestehend.

Es war zu einer Zeit …
Auch wenn sich niemand sicher ist, wann das alles passiert ist. Irgendwo in den sanften Hügeln der englischen Countryside, umringt von majestätischen Eichen, geht die Sonne sanft über einem herrschaftlichen Landsitz auf, dessen Fundamente kurz nach der Ankunft von Wilhelm dem Eroberer entstanden sind. Jedenfalls so ungefähr.

Unbelastet von Politik und Krieg machen sich zwei oder drei Hausdiener mühsam an die Arbeit. Sie öffnen die Vorhänge, lassen Bäder ein, schlagen Teppiche aus und heizen die Öfen an. Alles, um das morgendliche Zusammentreffen der Familie, der sie dienen, vorzubereiten. Die Vorbereitungen für das Frühstück sind nicht aufwendiger als für die der anderen Mahlzeiten des Tages. Doch die Zeit, die ab der Dämmerung für alle Arbeiten bleibt, ist einfach unzureichend. Die Anspannung ist enorm.

A Multi-faceted, beautiful book for babies through primary grades.
Format: Hardcover
Our second generation is now loving this beautiful, clever, playful book. Although there are no words, the story line is a delight. A watercolored village develops one page to the next starting with 0 and ending with 12. The pictures add one item in each category for each new number, building on the previous scene. Readers can find and count buildings, children, adults, pine trees, cherry trees, and an assortment of animals. In addition, in a lovely subtle manner, the four northern hemisphere seasons pass from January to December. The details of adult and child activities through time and seasons can be noted. Anno's creativity in this genre is unsurpassed. For my children, and now for my grandson, this book evokes fascination on several levels both aesthetic and intellectual. Start using it as a baby word book, and it will last as a joy throughout early childhood. Not every baby book must be a board book. Teaching children to turn pages gently is easy to do and adds to the amazing, shared experience.

Gorgeous book!
Format: Hardcover
Read this over and over with my own children and they loved it. Buying for friends' children/grandchildren and they are loving it, too. Timeless, lots to capture kids' interest and counting. The suggested age is 3 and up, but we used it earlier than 3 years of age; it depends on the child. We're buying them now for newborns figuring they'll "grow into it."

A truly original concept picture book. Unlike most counting ...
Format: Hardcover
A truly original concept picture book. Unlike most counting concept books that only show one item type (like 2 balls on the page about 2) this book has many items to count on each number page (3 trees, 3 trains, 3 cows, etc, on the pages about the number 3). You have to search around to find each of the items because the author moves the items around each time. :) Yes, it's not as flashy, but it's got what really counts!

Excellent early math book
Format: Paperback
I found this book on a recommended Early Math reading list posted on the PBS Parents website. Since there are no words in this book, there is nothing to actually read to your child. But it is likely one of the longest 12 page books I've read. And it is by far the most significant number book my 3 year old has read. Anno uses a town to depict and define numbers 0-12, the seasons, and the months of the year. The seasons and months are recognizeable, but not the focus like the numbers are. For the number 0, you see a blank landscape with a small river. When the child turns the page, he sees a large number 1 on the right side of the book and in the landscape one lone building, one tree, one sun, one snowman.... There is also a set of blocks on the left side of the book, with one block colored in. Thus, the child can see the number 1 represented as a numeral, as a block (of a set of 10), and as an object (one building, one tree, one person). As you turn the pages and the numbers increase, a village forms. The final page is the number 12 -- a full village at Christmas time, complete with 12 reindeer in the sky. As a parent, I enjoy having my daughter "read" to me. But I am most amazed by how the book has helped her to grasp the concept of numbers. As she explained, "0, Mommy. Because there's nothing there."

Great way to remove dry skin while not being abrasive
Style: Bath & Body
One side of the scrubber is a softer cloth, the other is a more abrasive cloth. There is a sponge divider between the two. This is great to use during the dry days of winter when my skin becomes dryer and more scaly. The soft side is for my face, of course. The ribbon band across the back lets me slide my hand in and get a bit more leverage and to hold on to the scrubber. Much kinder to my skin than a loofah. I wash the Scrubber with the towels so it is always clean.
