Sunny der Frosch verliebt sich in ein Smartphone. Aber bereits nach seiner ersten Nacht mit ihm stellt Sunny fest, dass ein Handy zwischenmenschliche Nähe nicht ersetzen kann.

Die Wale zum Beispiel retten Alfred Albatros und seine Sippe. Ein kleines Mädchen sorgt dafür, dass Ziegen wie Meggi vor dem Müll der Wanderer gerettet werden. Ein anderes Kind rettet Herrn Krokus und Frau Schneeglöckchen vor der Ignoranz des Nachbarn.

El Purgatorio de los

Editura: JUSTFICTION ED

Anul aparitiei: 2018

Resumen del libro: Esta prosa de ficción es una sátira a los poderes mundiales hambrientos por el dinero y la avaricia donde el hombre cae en las fosas del infierno para pagar sus culpas hasta librarse de todo mal. El engendro maravilloso de la vida está en esas cimas, donde abajo del cosmos, continuaban soplando con el sudor de albatros. Como era de costumbre, las estrellas brillaban ardientes igual que el suelo del desierto. Cuando los pies caminan desnudos por sus montes arenosos. Total todos los días el sol sale y entra por el mismo lugar, tratando que escuchen sus consejos de primavera. Después de todo, un sentido descubre que en el horizonte, pueda estar en alguna puerta mágica, donde lo divino sea ya una realidad. Evidente los ecos sutiles huérfanos lavaban sus pies con el agua del manantial. Aquel que desemboco en el eclipse lejano. Sustituyendo la tibia manera de impedir que los azules obreros levanten la tarde cristalina, para observar, si el silencio, se lamenta de sus inquietudes pasajeras.

Leinen los - Segel hoch - Poseidon wir kommen: Auf dem Albatros von Kroatien

Editura: BOOKS ON DEMAND

Anul aparitiei: 2020

Mit einer rund 12 Meter langen Segelyacht von Kroatien nach Griechenland zu segeln ist sicher keine Heldentat. Sollte auch keine werden. Ich wollte, gemeinsam mit Gerhard, einfach völlig entspannt die Schönheiten von Teilen Italiens Küste und Griechenlands kennen lernen und dabei die Faszination des Segelns genie en. Nicht schnell ankommen war mein Plan, sondern unterwegs sein. Mein Plan ging auf und das Ergebnis waren Begegnungen mit interessanten Menschen und der Kultur der Regionen, neue Erfahrungen und Erkenntnisse und viele interessante Erlebnisse. Mein Buch ist eine Kombination aus kleinem Abenteuer, persönlicher Herausforderung, Reiselust und Information und so manchem wertvollen Tipp. Sicher auch eine reizvolle Lektüre für Nichtsegler/innen.
