How to Be Like Walt: Capturing the Disney Magic Every Day of Your Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 976min
An inspiring biography of one of the most influential and beloved figures of the 21st century, based on more than 1,000 interviews. How to Be Like is a "character biography" series: biographies that also draw out important lessons from the life of their subjects. In this new book - by far the most exhaustive in the series - Pat Williams tackles one of the most influential people in recent history. While many recent biographies of Walt Disney have reveled in the negative, this audiobook takes an honest but positive look at the man behind the myth. For the first time, the book pulls together all the various strands of Disney's life into one straightforward, easy-to-listen-to tale of imagination, perseverance, and optimism. Far from a preachy or oppressive tome, this audiobook scrapes away the minutiae to capture the true magic of a brilliant maverick. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Paul Christy.

Praise Jerusalem! , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 654min
Fans of southern novels that explore the complex relationships between white families and their black hired help will find a compelling story about race relations in Praise Jerusalem. Amelia, an aging Georgia matron forced by money woes to move in with two other women - outlandishly preachy Maybelline and take-no-nonsense Mamie, who is black - begins to confront her childhood memories of the black women who worked for her family. Their lives, both tragic and yet sublimely proud, haunt Amelia even now, as she searches for a way to make peace with the sorrows she innocently observed. Praise Jerusalem is a rare mix of poignant drama but also wry humor. Both the elder Amelia and her childhood self are primly rebellious and irrepressible; Amelia's sharp eye for petty human foibles never fails her. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: D.

Winter , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 624min
Winter Maessen didn't ask for the gift of prophecy. She's happy being a freak - but now everyone thinks she's crazy. Or evil. Goths aren't all the same, you know. Some are Christians.... Christians to whom God sends visions. Students at her university are being attacked, and Winter knows there's more than flesh and blood at work. Her gift means she's the only one who can stop it - but at what price? Winter has a five-star rating on Amazon and has received rave reviews. The target audience for this book fits nicely into the same target audience as the Twilight saga. However, the books are completely different. This book has a very distinct Christian worldview, but it is not preachy. Its genre has been described as Spiritual Thriller, Christian Horror, Gothic Thriller, and Paranormal. ungekürzt.

The Muesli Bar: Idea to Execution a Bite at a Time: Experience the Journey of an Entrepreneur Learning the First Milestones of Business , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 56min
Steering clear of advice column "should"s and preachy "everyone must"s, The Muesli Bar is an engaging piece of writing, fit for overwhelmed minds of young entrepreneurs. It is a peek into the life of businessman, a quick look at the author’s personal experiences, and a long hard look at perspectives and attitudes that chase happiness and fulfillment instead of the illusion of success. The Muesli Bar is a monologue one read short of turning into a dialogue with enthusiastic beginners, and forever fervent creators. Infused with humor both dry and brittle, the book is an energy bar consisting of encouraging analogies, hard facts, and the bitter truth wrapped in a good laugh. It walks the reader through the first milestones of business while snacking on food for thought. It is an honest conversation rooted in the author’s philosophy: "This is my way. Take a look; it might help you find your own!" ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dalan Decker. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/106033/bk_acx0_106033_sample.mp3.

The Shared Table
This cookbook is a celebration of shared homes and their most iconic dishes - the food designed to feed the crowd, without breaking the bank or spending hours in the kitchen. It is a book about community, warmth, love and the unique connection of a nurturing home, where shared meals are central to the environment. Plus, without getting preachy or "clean 'n green eating” about it, all the recipes in the book are vegetarian and vegan. The eight chapters are captured in different share houses throughout the inner, sunshiny, suburbs of Brisbane, Australia. Each chapter has a distinct theme, as dictated by the culinary skills of those living in the featured house: A breakfast spread menu; Hungover brunch; A leisurely long lunch; Eat it with your hands; Mexican-inspired feast; A Mediterranean dinner party; Pasta night; and Comfort food spread. Through its clean and bright photography - all taken by Clare's own friends and roommates - The Shared Table is simultaneously luxe and sincere. It's a warm and inviting cookbook that every share house needs on their communal bookshelf.- Shop: buecher
