Peiter, Peter, and Peer, E-bok
We all know that storks bring babies to their parents, what we often do not know is what happens to these children once they have arrived with their family. So, I asked a stork about this and she told me the story of the Peitersen family, to whom she had delivered three sons: Pieter, Peter and Peer.Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) was a Danish author, poet and artist. Celebrated for children’s literature, his most cherished fairy tales include 'The Emperor's New Clothes', 'The Little Mermaid', 'The Nightingale', 'The Steadfast Tin Soldier', 'The Snow Queen', 'The Ugly Duckling' and 'The Little Match Girl'. His books have been translated into every living language, and today there is no child or adult that has not met Andersen's whimsical characters. His fairy tales have been adapted to stage and screen countless times, most notably by Disney with the animated films "The Little Mermaid" in 1989 and "Frozen", which is loosely based on "The Snow Queen", in 2013. Thanks to Andersen's contribution to children's literature, his birth date, April 2, is celebrated as International Children's Book Day.

I detta porträtt av Russells liv och verk, presenterar A C Grayling både Russells tekniska bidrag till förnuft och filosofi och hans vidspännande åsikter om utbildning, politik, krig och sexualmoral.

Russell Hoban
Spanning more than half a century, Russell Hoban's celebrated literary career won him critical accolades and legions of admirers across multiple genres. Many know him from the groundbreaking masterpiece Riddley Walker, with its twelve-year-old protagonist contemplating 'what the idear of us myt be' from amidst the ruins of civilization. Some know Hoban from the genre-defying The Mouse and His Child, or from idiosyncratic novels of floundering Londoners struggling with writer's block or whether to steal turtles from the Zoo, hallucinating Death as a chimpanzee, or a grapefruit as the head of Orpheus. Still others fondly recall Frances the Badger's refusal to go to bed, or share Emmet Otter with their own children at Christmas. This book, the first consideration of Russell Hoban's literary career as a whole, explores what binds these seemingly disparate works together. Discovering unexpected patterns between books written from out of what one character describes as a perpetual 'state of
