The Tales of Beedle the Bard have been favourite bedtime reading in
wizarding households for centuries. Full of magic and trickery,
these classic tales both entertain and instruct, and remain as
captivating to young wizards today as they were when Beedle first
put quill to parchment in the fifteenth century. There are five
tales in all: 'The Tale of the Three Brothers' Harry Potter fans
will know from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, 'The Fountain
of Fair Fortune', 'The Warlock's Hairy Heart', 'The Wizard and the
Hopping Pot' and 'Babbitty Rabbitty and her Cackling Stump'
complete the collection. These narrative gems are accompanied by
explanatory notes by Professor Albus Dumbledore (included by kind
permission of the Hogwarts Headmaster's archive). His illuminating
thoughts reveal the stories to be much more than just simple moral
tales, and are sure to make Babbitty Rabbitty and the slug-belching
Hopping Pot as familiar to Muggles as Snow White and Cinderella.
This brand new edition of these much loved fairy tales from the
wizarding world pairs J.K. Rowling's original text with gorgeous
jacket art by Jonny Duddle and line illustrations throughout by
Tomislav Tomic. The Tales of Beedle the Bard is published in aid of
the Lumos (link to wearelumos.org), an international children's
charity (registered charity number 1112575) founded in 2005 by J.K
Rowling. Lumos is dedicated ending the institutionalisation of
children, a harmful practice that affects the lives of up to eight
million disadvantaged children around the world who live in
institutions and orphanages, many placed there as a result of
poverty, disability, disease, discrimination and conflict, very few
are orphans. Lumos works to reunite children with their families,
promote family-based care alternatives and help authorities to
reform their systems and close down institutions and orphanages.

V januári 1965 Gabriel García Márquez cestoval s rodinou na
dovolenku do Acapulca, keď odrazu dostal nápad. Začul vravu
mestečka Macondo. Už vedel, ako napíše svoj nový román. Vrátil sa
domov, zatvoril sa do pracovne, a keď z nej po osemnástich
mesiacoch vyšiel, v ruke držal 1 300 strán rukopisu a bol šťastný.
Román Sto rokov samoty prvý raz vyšiel v roku 1967, Márquez mal
vtedy 39 rokov a svet si navždy zapamätal jeho meno. Dnes je román
považovaný za jedno z najvýznamnejších diel latinskoamerickej a
svetovej literatúry. Je komponovaný z množstva reálnych aj
fantazijných epizód a rozpráva o pôvabných i krutých príhodách
šiestich generácií rodiny Buendíovcov z fiktívneho mestečka
Macondo.
