BOOK: Monica is a little girl with a heart as vast as the ocean. Every night, she embarks on a magical journey in her dreams. She finds herself on a remote island, not inhabited by people, but by adorable, waddling penguins. Monica, with her tender age, takes on the role of a caretaker for these charming creatures. She feeds them, plays with them, and even tells them stories under the shimmering moonlight. Her laughter echoes against the backdrop of the serene island, blending with the harmonious chorus of the penguins’ squawks. Her dreams are filled with the joyous sight of penguins sliding on their bellies, their black and white figures contrasting against the pristine snow. Monica watches them with sparkling eyes, her heart brimming with love and care for her feathery friends. Despite the chill of the island, Monica feels warm. The penguins, in their own unique way, have accepted her as one of their own. As she wakes up each morning, she carries the beautiful memories of her dreams, eagerly waiting for the night to fall, to return to her beloved island of penguins. This is Monica, the little girl who dreams of penguins on an island, a testament to the boundless imagination of a child’s mind.

Tap-tapping the keys and out come the words on this little screen, and who will read them I hardly know. I could be dead by the time anyone actually gets to read them, as dead as, say, Tolstoy. Or Shakespeare. Does it matter, when you read, if the person who wrote still lives? These are the words of Jake Mishkin, whose seemingly innocent job as an intellectual property lawyer has put him at the center of a deadly conspiracy and a chase to find a priceless treasure involving William Shakespeare. As he awaits a killer—or killers—unknown, Jake writes an account of the events that led to this deadly endgame, a frantic chase that began when a fire in an antiquarian bookstore revealed the hiding place of letters containing a shocking secret, concealed for four hundred years. In a frantic race from New York to England and Switzerland, Jake finds himself matching wits with a shadowy figure who seems to anticipate his every move. What at first seems like a thrilling puzzle waiting to be deciphered soon turns into a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse, where no one—not family, not friends, not lovers—is to be trusted. Moving between twenty-first-century America and seventeenth-century England, The Book of Air and Shadows is a modern thriller that brilliantly re-creates William Shakespeare's life at the turn of the seventeenth century and combines an ingenious and intricately layered plot with a devastating portrait of a contemporary man on the brink of self-discovery... or self-destruction.

A little book for those in search of words to calm and inspire. In this gift book His Holiness the Dalai Lama teaches us how to deal with suffering. The Dalai Lama's Book of Awakening contains His Holiness thoughts on The Four Noble Truths -- the very foundation of Buddhist teaching. The Four Noble Truths -- the truth of suffering, the truth of the origin of suffering, the truth of the cessation of suffering, the truth of the path leading to this cessation -- was the first sermon the Buddha gave after he was enlightened. In this little book, His Holiness presents a comprehensive explanation of the subject, helping us to gain a better understanding of the Four Noble Truths. 'Whenever I have been given the opportunity to introduce Buddhism I always make it a point to explain Buddhism in terms of two principles. One is the development of a philosophical viewpoint based on the understanding of the interdependent nature of reality. And the second principle is that of non-violence which is the actual action of a Buddhist practitioner and which derives from that view of the interdependent nature of reality.' His Holiness the Dalai Lama
