    Small Miracles (eBook, ePUB)
    A little bit of sin is good for the soul. Gadriel, the fallen angel of petty temptations, has a bit of a gambling debt. Fortunately, her angelic bookie is happy to let her pay off her debts by doing what she does best: All Gadriel has to do is tempt miserably sinless mortal Holly Harker to do a few nice things for herself. What should be a cakewalk of a job soon runs into several roadblocks, however, as Miss Harker politely refuses every attempt at temptation from Gadriel the woman, Gadriel the man, and Gadriel the adorable fluffy kitten. When even chocolate fails to move Gadriel's target, the ex-guardian angel begins to suspect she's been conned. But Gadriel still remembers her previous job… and where petty temptations fail, small miracles might yet prevail. Olivia Atwater explores love, grief, and the very last bit of chocolate in this sweet modern fantasy, full of wit and heart. Pick up Small Miracles, and enjoy a heavenly faerie tale from the author of Half a Soul.

    Party People , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 29min
    Some folks just prefer to stay home. You know them - whole families who politely decline invitations because they don't spend money on fancy clothes, don't care for "small talk". And they certainly don't dance. They're just not "party people". Meet an earnest first-grader, intent upon convincing his hill-country parents that other children are treated to a party each year on their birthday, that they invite friends, eat cake - and receive presents. Meet also his equally intent mother, who is determined not to open this can of worms, not with the 128 cousins who might start doing the same thing. Both of them step out of this luminous story that turns the concept of "good neighbors" upside down. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: August House.

    Auntie Maim: Revenge of the Homophones: The Sheldon Beasley Series, Volume 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 105min
    Was Auntie Maim an axe murderer? Well, you might have thought so! Auntie Mame, on the other hand, can teach you and all of us an important lesson. The little things in life sometimes aren’t so little. Sheldon Beasley, 13, learned that lesson when his attempt to audition for a role in the wildly popular play Auntie Mame went horribly awry. In a letter to the play’s director, Sheldon made several references to "Auntie Maim". Oops. That’s no way to impress the boss, who politely notified Sheldon he would not be invited to tryouts. But Sheldon’s best friend, Tabby Moore, wouldn’t let Sheldon give up. She organized a political-style campaign on Sheldon’s behalf. Problem was, Sheldon, Tabby, and friends suddenly found themselves in the adult world, battling adults on the adults’ turf. With those odds, the kids’ outlook was bleak. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    On Being Unknowing: The Enlightenment of Limits , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 36min
    A map by definition is less than the territory to which it points. If such a topographical depiction was exactly the same in detail, size, and description to the area it wished to cover, then it would be superfluous and redundant. Therefore, if we accept this definition of maps, we know that each of them (no matter how sophisticated) will have gaps. Which is another way of saying (perhaps less politely) that all models are in some sense wrong. They will have key pieces and vital information missing. So, like the recorded warning to oncoming passengers in the underground tube stations in London, England, we are told to “mind the gaps”. This audiobook explores why we should keep open and humble and realize the limits of our cranial capacities and the models of reality we generate. ungekürzt. Language: English.
