Based on the true story of the 1839 mutiny on board the Spanish slave ship, Amistad, here is the frightening sequence of events that led fifty-three young men and women - and one young nation - to seek freedom and justice for all people. Amistad is the story of Cinque, the illegally enslaved son of a Mende chief who led an uprising full of fury and courage. It is also the story of John Quincy Adams, the former American president, who reluctantly heeded the call to justice and defended Cinque in a Supreme Court trial that would alter the nation's history. And it is the story of men and women searching to find truth and to uphold the basic tenets of the American Constitution. Brilliantly narrated by award-winning novelist Alexs Pate, Amistad celebrates the human spirit's profound determination to fight, hope, and to be free. Visit the "Amistad" book site! A junior novelization is also available for young adults.

Era alto y rubio, alemán y católico; su nombre era Oskar Schindler y aunque estuviera casado, sus amantes se disputaban el privilegio de dedicarle una noche de diversión mientras el dinero corría por sus manos generosas con sospechosa alegría. Este hombre, que no tenía madera de santo y nunca pretendió ser un héroe, fue capaz de resolver a su manera la "cuestión judía" construyendo en Cracovia un campo de concentración que era a la vez una fábrica. Tras los muros de este campo albergó a miles de judíos, trasladándolos luego a un lugar seguro de Checoslovaquía. Figurar en la "lista de Schindler" era, para un judío sinónimo de salvación en una época en que los hornos de Auschwitz funcionaban noche y día. En Jerusalén, en la avenida de los Hombres Justos, hay un árbol que recuerda la emotiva historia de Oskar Schindler, que Thomas Keneally ha novelado con un respeto absoluto por los hechos históricos y la maestría indiscutible de un gran narrador. QUIEN SALVA LA VIDA DE UN HOMBRE SALVA AL MUNDO ENTERO.

Qu'il est bon d'avoir trouvé refuge à Phoenix, dans la paisible demeure de grand-mère Bess. Mais pourquoi ni Diane, ni Steven Freeling, ni leurs jeunes enfants n'ont-ils pas encore réussi, deux ans après, à oublier le cauchemar de Cuesta Verde, leur maison de Californie, soudain possédée, dévastée ? Par qui ? Par quoi ? Ils ont fui et le mystère est resté total... Mais lorsque grand-mère Bess s'éteint, tout, aussitôt, recommence : les murs vacillent, des ombres menacent, des hurlements retentissent. Terrorisés, les Freeling vont fuir de nouveau... quand surgit un inconnu, un Indien au visage impassible, à la voix impérieuse : leur fuite serait vaine, le Mal les suivrait. C'est ici qu'il faut le combattre et il est prêt à les aider de tous ses pouvoirs de magicien. Est-ce un piège ? Est-ce le seul salut ?
Le caverne segrete. Il vecchio faro. La mappa perduta. Le trappole insidiose. Il tesoro nascosto. E Sloth... È estate nella piccola cittadina di Astoria. I Goonies - un gruppo di giovani ragazzi del quartiere Goon Docks - devono dare addio alle case dove sono nati e cresciuti: i signorini del club del golf hanno dato lo sfratto alle loro famiglie per radere al suolo il quartiere e costruire nuovi, esclusivi campi da gioco. Poco prima di andarsene, però, uno di loro scopre in soffitta un'antica mappa del tesoro, appartenuta a Willy l'Orbo - un temibile pirata spagnolo del Seicento. Se i Goonies riusciranno a mettere le mani sul bottino del vecchio corsaro potrebbero ancora salvare le loro case!
