Rano ujutro zazvonila je budilica, ali Skočkica, malena, dražesna sivkasta mišica, nije mogla ustati iz kreveta jer je bila bolesna. Njezina mama nazvala je doktora i zamolila ga da dođe pregledati malu bolesnicu. Skočkica je bila jako prestrašena jer se bojala da će joj liječnik dati preveliku injekciju, ali budući da je u pitanju bila blaga prehlada, mišica je brzo ozdravila popivši bočicu sirupa. Zabavna ilustrirana slikovnica za najmlađe koji tek uče čitati. Riječi u tekstu zamijenjene su slikama, a na početku i na kraju slikovnice nalazi se zanimljiv rječnik kao pomoć malim čitateljima.

Slikovnica iz serijala Moji prijatelji i ja predstavlja zečića koji se razlikuje od drugih, i koji kroz priču o sebi ujedno pomaže i najmlađima da se bolje upoznaju i da nauče prihvaćati te male, a ipak osjetne međusobne razlike . . .
Knjiga u žanru političke memoaristike: u prvom, autobiografskom dijelu Humo pripovijeda o prošlosti svoje porodice, uspomenama iz djetinjstva, svakodnevnom životu te širem društvenom (političkom, ali i privatnom) okruženju u kojem je živio.

Fundamentals of Musical Composition represents the culmination of more than forty years in Schoenberg’s life devoted to the teaching of musical principles to students and composers in Europe and America. For his classes he developed a manner of presentation in which ‘every technical matter is discussed in a very fundamental way, so that at the same time it is both simple and thorough’. This book can be used for analysis as well as for composition. On the one hand, it has the practical objective of introducing students to the process of composing in a systematic way, from the smallest to the largest forms; on the other hand, the author analyses in thorough detail and with numerous illustrations those particular sections in the works of the masters which relate to the compositional problem under discussion. Fundamentals of Musical Composition Paperback – March 15, 1999 by Arnold Schoenberg (Author), Gerald Strang (Editor), Leonard Stein (Editor)
Ester Nilsson, tridesetjednogodišnja pjesnikinja i esejistica, racionalna je osoba u jednako tako racionalnoj dugogodišnjoj vezi, sve do jednog lipanjskog dana, kad dobiva poziv da održi predavanje o veličanstvenom i jedinstvenom umjetniku Hugu Rasku. U publici sjedi i sam umjetnik, zaintrigiran i oduševljen njezinom fasciniranošću njime. Od tog trenutka Esterin je život presudno obilježen tim susretom i dugim razgovorima i večerama koji će uslijediti… Namjerno zanemarivanje je priča o potpunoj i očajničkoj ljubavi, o tome kako smo spremni izdati sami sebe u potrazi za ljubavlju. No to zapravo nije roman o ljubavi, nego o poniženju izazvanom odbijanjem i samoobmanjivanjem, o mučnom sramu zbog bespomoćnosti i potpunog gubitka kontrole nad vlastitim životom. Lena Andersson ugledna je, nagrađivana švedska spisateljica i kolumnistica najvećih švedskih dnevnih novina Dagens Nyheter. Roman Namjerno zanemarivanje nagrađen je 2013. godine najprestižnijom švedskom književnom nagradom August te književnom nagradom časopisa Svenska Dagbladet. Naklada Ljevak s ponosom predstavlja hrvatsko izdanje ovog upečatljivog djela u prijevodu Željke Černok.
