Hyena longs to become a ballerina, but will her dreams come true? This lively story features bright illustrations & simple rhyming text, specially written for children who are learning to read. A delight to share with very young children, with parents notes on phonics at the back of the book. ...

Candlelight is hygge; the smell of freshly brewed coffee is hygge; the feel of crisp, clean bed linen is hygge; dinner with friends is hygge. ` Hygge`, pronounced `hoo-ga`, is a Danish philosophy that roughly translates to `cosiness`. But it is so much more than that. It`s a way of life that encourages us to be kinder to ourselves, to take pleasure in the modest, the mundane & the familiar. It is a celebration of the everyday, of sensual experiences rather then things. It`s an entire attitude to life that results in Denmark regularly being voted one of the happiest countries in the world. So, with two divorces behind her & her 50th birthday rapidly approaching, journalist Charlotte Abrahams ponders whether it`s hygge that`s been missing from her life. Is it a philosophy we can all embrace? In a society where lifestyle trends tend to centre on deprivation
- be it no sugar, no gluten, no possessions
- what does cherishing yourself actually mean? & will it make her happy? In Hygge, Charlotte Abrahams weaves the history of hygge & its role in Danish culture with her own attempts, as an English woman, to embrace a more hygge life. In this beautifully written & stylishly designed book, she examines the impact this has on her home, her health, her relationships &, of course, her happiness. Light a candle, pour yourself a glass of wine, & get ready to enjoy your more hygge life.

One little word is the secret reminder of what really matters in life: Hygge. This Scandinavian concept, pronounced `hue-guh`, helps Denmark to be the happiest nation on earth. With no equivalent in the English language, this word describes a moment of happiness, warmth or togetherness, & is found in the little things in life. We all know this feeling of hygge instinctively. It happens when you curl up in your favourite spot with an absorbing book, or when you share a delicious meal with wonderful friends. But we don`t all know how to make time for these moments. Marie Tourell Soderberg`s beautiful, authentic guide will show you that hygge is truly all around, if you know where to look. From home interiors to cooking, hygge touches all aspects of everyday life. This book will teach you how to say hygge, how to find hygge, & how to create hygge. It will help you to appreciate just how important these moments are, & why in our busy modern lives it`s more vital than ever to switch off & make time for hygge. About the author Marie Tourell Soderberg is a Danish actress, born in Copenhagen. When she`s not on stage or screen, she escapes from the drama by practicing the art of hygge. For this book, she has travelled the country, speaking to ordinary Danes about what this word means to them, & hearing from experts on why we all need more hygge in our lives. ...

Driven by a need to find answers, Erlendur begins an unofficial investigation into Maria`s death. But he is also haunted by another unsolved mystery
- the disappearance of two young people thirty years ago
- & by his own quest to find the body of his brother, who died in a blizzard when he was a boy. ” Hypothermia” is Indridason`s most compelling novel yet.
