This new facsimile reprint of the very first adventure of one of the world’s most beloved cartoon characters shows Tintin’s creator，the famed Belgian cartoonist Herge，just beginning to learn his craft。 The story was originally created in 1929 for a children’s supplement in the Belgian newspaper Le Vingtieme Siecle。 Readers meet Tintin，intrepid red-headed boy reporter，along with his dog，for the first time as they set off to Russia to investigate the evil doings of the Soviets。 Herg later apologized for the heavy-handed anti-Soviet satire on almost every page。 The Soviets are generally portrayed as corn-stealing murderous scum； among other things，Tintin is tortured by thoroughly caricatured Chinese employees of the Soviet secret police。 These stereotypes and others like them are a part of that time period，although they’ve been cited as evidence of Herge’s racism。 Setting aside the political context，the book is a valuable documentation of the rough and underdeveloped work

Clement Hurd redrew some of his pictures for this new edition of the profoundly comforting story of a bunny’s imaginary game of hide-and-seek and the lovingly steadfast mother who finds him every time.

《象脉学》是形而上脉象学内涵，作者潜心研究，反复梳理，终成该作。内容有症状脉学（传统脉）研究，脏器及其疾病脉学研究，六淫七情脉象研究，流年脉学研究，风水脉象研究，改脉治病研究等内容。意在为脉象研究者或脉学爱好者放飞思想、拓展眼界。书中有关脉中象学的理念抖露了象脉学原理，洞切了气口这一信息窗口的海市蜃楼。 笔者一生勤奋，年似将撕开寸口秘密的窗纸，为人类以脉诊病、察脉治病的原生态医疗不惜苦涩自我，褒贬一生。其对人类医学的贡献虽然淹没在浮躁的今天，但时间将是检验真理的标准。目前笔者致力于该项技艺在世界范围内传播，坚信人类脱离过度医疗的沉荷已经小荷初尖。广大同仁若能慧心顿悟、天机典藏则神奇无限复制。 观其治病：三指轻弹如医院理化仪器，小针若兵，脉气挪移，大病顽疾改象病愈，这是何等的造

Learning to count is made fun in this crazy tale of a dog, alion and a tiger all showing off how many apples they can balanceon their heads as they skip, walk the tightrope and roller skatetheir way through the book. This title belongs to the "BeginnerBook" series developed by Dr. Seuss, in which the essentialingredients of rhyme, rhythm and repetition are combined with zanyartwork and humour to create a range of books that will encouragechildren to learn to read. Originally published under the pseudonymof Theo. LeSieg, this book is being relaunched with a new coverdesign which reveals, for the first time, the true identity of theauthor - Dr. Seuss himself.

Say you've spent the first 10 years of your life sleeping under the stairs of a family who loathes you. Then, in an absurd, magical twist of fate you find yourself surrounded by wizards, a caged snowy owl, a phoenix-feather wand, and jellybeans that come in every flavor, including strawberry, curry, grass, and sardine. Not only that, but you discover that you are a wizard yourself! This is exactly what happens to young Harry Potter in J.K. Rowling's enchanting, funny debut novel, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. In the nonmagic human world--the world of "Muggles"--Harry is a nobody, treated like dirt by the aunt and uncle who begrudgingly inherited him when his parents were killed by the evil Voldemort. But in the world of wizards, small, skinny Harry is famous as a survivor of the wizard who tried to kill him. He is left only with a lightning-bolt scar on his forehead, curiously refined sensibilities, and a host of mysterious powers to remind him that he's quite, yes, altogether different from his aunt

Another silly title from the Beginner Books series (the same place that Dr. Seuss and the Berenstains hang their hats), I Wish That I Had Duck Feet follows one little guy's dreams of borrowing all sorts of useful appendages from the animal world. "I wish that I had duck feet. And I can tell you why. You can splash around in duck feet. You don't have to keep them dry." But each time he imagines something new--those duck feet, a prickly pair of deer horns perfect for playing football, a spraying whale spout to keep his classroom cool--he realizes that it's not always all it's cracked up to be. "BUT... If I had a long, long tail, I know that Big Bill Brown would tie me in a tree! He would! Then how would I get down?" A vacuuming mom and pipe-smoking dad are straight out of '60s suburbia (Duck Feet first came out in 1965), but the playful illustrations and catchy rhymes still make for good fun.

Peter Lorangis and Charles Mintz alternate telling the stories using delightful voices and clear narration, perfect for young listeners.
