Pigs Might Fly!

Joey is a warhorse, but he wasn't always. Once, he was a farm horse and a gentle boy named Albert was his master. Then World War I came storming through and everything changed. Albert's father sells Joey to the army where the beautiful, red-bay horse is trained to charge the enemy, drag heavy artillery, and carry wounded soldiers not much older than Albert off of battlefields. Amongst the clamoring of guns and slogging through the cold mud, Joey wonders if the war will ever end. And if it does, will he ever find Albert again?

Cheval de guerre

"Je suis probablement le pantin le plus célèbre que le monde ait jamais connu. Vous savez sûrement pourquoi mon nez s'allonge... Mais vous ne connaissez pas ma véritable histoire ! C'est pourquoi j'ai pensé qu'il était temps pour moi, Pinocchio, de vous la raconter avec mes propres mots. Vous pourrez voir que, quelle que soit notre nature, pour nous tous, grandir est une période difficile mais passionnante..."

Pinocchio raconte Pinocchio

The acclaimed author and illustrator of SIR GAWAIN AND THE GREEN KNIGHT return with an exhilarating edition of Britain's oldest epic.Long ago there was a Scandinavian warrior who fought three evils so powerful they could destroy whole kingdoms. Standing head and shoulders above his comrades, Beowulf single-handedly saves the land of the Danes from a merciless ogre named Grendel and then from his sea-hag mother. But it is his third terrible battle, with the death-dragon of the deep, in which he truly meets his match. Lovers of heroes, monsters, and the drama of battle will find this retelling as enthralling as it is tragic.

Beowulf

«C'est une longue histoire, une histoire de grand amour, de grande tragédie, de magie et de mystère, de triomphe et de désastre. C'est mon histoire. Mais c'est l'histoire surtout de la Table ronde où, autrefois, siégeait une assemblée de chevaliers, les hommes les meilleurs et les plus valeureux que le monde ait jamais connus. Je commencerai par le commencement, quand j'étais encore un enfant à peine plus âgé que tu ne l'es aujourd'hui.» De sa voix chaude et feutrée, Bernard-Pierre Donnadieu nous entraîne dans l'univers du roi Arthur, peuplé de chevaliers et de magie.Une lecture envoûtante !L'écoute en classe de ce CD est autorisée par l'éditeur.

Longer novels from Children's Laureate Michael Morpurgo are always a particular treat, and Private Peaceful is no exception. Tragic, surprising and engaging in equal measures, Morpurgo's novel charts both the childhood of young Thomas Peaceful in the early years of the 20th century, and his eventual underage enlistment in the British army to help fight the First World War. It is, above all, a poignant story of war and about all of its many life-changing effects on those involved--also the brutality of the commanding regimes and the relentless squalor of trench warfare. It's not for the squeamish--Morpurgo tells it like it was and his honest insight is on every page for all to appreciate.  "Tommo" Peaceful is recalling his childhood from those terrible battlefields. He remembers his big brother Charlie taking him to his first day of school, the death of his father, his mum working hard to keep a roof over their heads and food on their table. He remembers his brother Joe, who some called simple, but who to Tommo was very special. He also recalls the only girl in his life, Molly, and how Charlie somehow took her away from him. But as the World turned to War, he had to grow up fast. Together Charlie and Tommo enlist and are sent to France, almost immediately, to what could only be described as pure hell on Earth. Bullets, bombs, death. Shells, noise, dirt. Disease, rats, stench. Charlie and Tommo fight for their lives and to stay together--facing certain death in the face every time they try to advance the British lines.  Morpurgo rattles through his narrative at some speed, gracefully capturing both the horror of war and the ecstasy of life. The ending is shocking and memorable. This is difficult, emotionally draining but highly recommended reading. (Recommended for ages 10 and over.) --John McLay
