For decades, I've been trying to identify a book I read when I was in school, in which a boy and girl take shelter from the cold inside a dead dragon (kind of like Luke and the Tauntaun), and emerge with telepathy and other dragon abilities. This scene was all I remembered. Turns out it was the second book of the Pit Dragon Chronicles, "Heart’s Blood", by Jane Yolen, which I just stumbled across and reread. Mystery finally solved!
"Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space."

Can anybody give me a hint for a good #book to learn to play #ukulele ?
Until now, I learned with Andreas #Bördlein #UkuleleLernenSchrittFürSchritt but now I played through both of his books and most books on Amazon are intended for beginners (starting with C and F...).
A book with videos would be perfect, but I'm desparate enough to have a look at everything.
(Sorry for my bad english, wasn't able to use it for years... But I can understand it, so books in english are ok)

I am looking for a #book which features an oceanic thermal conversion power plant on the cover. It’s aimed at YA ages. Anyone have any ideas? I wish I remembered the title, but I know what it looks like. The #library I used to find it at weeded it years ago & I have been struggling to locate a copy or even just the title ever since.

Vielleicht kennen einige von euch den Film, aber das Buch lässt einen sprachlos zurück. In Frankreich wehrt sich eine #Gewerkschaft erin gegen gemauschel und setzt sich für ihre Kolleg*innen ein. Und dann wird sie sexuell missbraucht. Alles deutet auf den Arbeitgeber oder einen seine Berater hin. Doch keiner glaubt ihr.
Das Buch lässt ein nachdenklich werden, wie wenig Risiko wir hier in Deutschland eingehen müssen, wenn wir protestieren. #bookstodon #book #bücher

Because the anniversary of the Düsseldorf #book burning comes on the eve of #Passover, I'll share the cover of this volume, produced for the first Passover celebration of #Holocaust survivors after the liberation, 1946. See alt text for explanation

Most of the #Nazi #book burnings took place in May 1933, but the Action against the Un-German Spirit, initiated by students--who were fascist rather than "woke," began in April

CHILLING KOREAN HORROR novel keeps the pressure on in a tale of sudden and unimaginable disaster. Straightforward tale of one man’s quest to stay alive takes on levels of moral nuance as the devastation unfolds. B PLUS
In spite of its title, I would like to emphasize that the main point of this book is not about…Trump. It is about the larger context that has given rise to his presidency, and the greater population that he affects by virtue of his position. The ascendancy of an individual with such impairments speaks to our general state of health and well-being as a nation, and to how we can respond: we can either improve it or further impair it.
—Bandy X. Lee et al., The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump

"How to keep house while drowning" just changed my life for the better. This #book should be required reading for everyone, as young as possible, because our spaces should serve us, not vice versa.
Our attitude toward cleaning matters to our lifelong well-being and our ability to deal with care tasks in family and housemate living situations.
The audiobook is read by the author. Libro.fm is a good place to buy audiobooks while supporting your local store.
