Harry Potter is midway through his training as a wizard and his coming of age. Harry wants to get away from the pernicious Dursleys and go to the International Quidditch Cup. He wants to find out about the mysterious event that's supposed to take place at Hogwarts this year, an event involving two other rival schools of magic, and a competition that hasn't happened for a hundred years. He wants to be a normal, fourteen-year-old wizard. But unfortunately for Harry Potter, he's not normal - even by wizarding standards. And in his case, different can be deadly. 哈利·波特在霍格沃茨魔法学校经过三年的学习和磨炼,逐渐成长为一个出色的巫师。但哈利注定永远都不可能平平常常——即使拿魔法界的标准来衡量。黑魔的阴影始终挥之不去,种种暗藏杀机的神秘事件将哈利一步步推向了伏地魔的魔爪。哈利渴望在百年不遇的三强争霸赛中战胜自我,完成三个惊险艰巨的魔法项目,谁知整个竞赛竟是一

Anna is a writer, author of one very successful novel, who now keeps four notebooks. In one, with a black cover, she reviews the African experience of her earlier year. In a red one she records her political life, her disillusionment with communism. In a yellow one she writes a novel in which the heroine reviles part of her own experience. And in the blue one she keeps a personal diary. Finally, in love with an American writer and threatened with insanity, Anna tries to bring the threads of all four books together in a golden notebook.
City streets abound with billboards,posters,and corporate advertising that almost invite a subversive response...and increasingly are getting one.Many of today's graffiti artists have adopted the stencil and spray can,and are using the street as a giant creative forum for their arresting artwork."The image," says San Diego artist Shepard Fairey,"is integrated with the texture of the street." This book showcases the work of the originators,the innovators,and the new generation who,as UK artist Nylon puts it,are "breathing life into derelict spaces."

Today's children love Robert Louis Stevenson's delightful verses because of their deceptively simple rhymes and rhythms - and their timeless subject matter: birds and animals, gardens, adventure and fantasy. First published in 1885, A Child's Garden of Verses was an immediate success, and has been in print ever since.
