Gerber L: The Power of Story

The Power of Story

Connect With Purpose, Unlock Your Influence

“Conversational essays on wonder . . . A&nbsp;meditation on what gives life meaning. . . . A loving sermon on the rewards of children’s books.”&nbsp;―Kirkus Reviews Make Believe is bestselling children’s author Mac Barnett’s rallying cry for art and imagination, and a celebration of the power of storytelling in all our lives. It’s an incisive, intimate, and timely invitation to approach children’s literature not only as an art form worthy of deep study and criticism, but as a portal into the lives of the children. And at a time when we are faced with a national literacy crisis,&nbsp;he&nbsp;champions the profound joys of literature and the importance of reading for pleasure. What if children are a great audience for art? What if they are in fact better equipped to engage deeply with stories than adults? What if humans’ ability to appreciate art is, if not innate, awakened early in childhood? Well, then we’d better do our best to make some good kids’ books. Written with humor and academic rigor, Make Believe&nbsp;reads like a letter from your smartest and funniest friend. Includes spreads from Goodnight Moon and Busy, Busy Town, illustrations by Caldecott Medalist Jon Klassen, and cover art by celebrated illustrator Carson Ellis. &nbsp;

How to build a profitable business with courage & Creativity

Sketch to Six+ Figures

Nachdem Ole Lucoje 2024 Berlin-Brandenburgischer Landesmeister im Poetry Slam wurde, wagt er sich nun mit seinem ersten Sammelband in die Welt der Bücher. Dabei scheut er die klassische Shorty Story ebenso wenig wie knalligen Humor und bekennt: 'Fun, Fun Fun, denk, denk, denk. - Schaden kann aktuell beides nicht.' 
Ole Lucoje stellt keine großen Fragen und beantwortet wahrscheinlich auch keine kon­kret. Er beschreibt sie - vielleicht. Darüber hinaus neigt er zu schamlosen Untertreibungen.
In seinem Debüt zieht er viele Register und versammelt Short Storys mit starker Bildsprache, die häufig ins Groteske kippen und einen Sinn für Tragik offenbaren, seine gefeierten humoristischen Bühnentexte sowie satirisch-essayistische Auseinandersetzungen mit der Überforderung eines jungen Zwangsneurotikers im großstädtischen und studentischen Alltag. Hier meldet sich eine vielversprechende neue Stimme aus der Berliner Lesebühnen- und Poetry-Slam-Szene: jung, hochkomisch, nachdenklich, aufmerksam und unbedingt unterhaltsam mit einem Anspruch auf mehr.

'Einmal aufgeschlagen, ist es ein offenes Buch.'
- Ole L.

Pazifist mit Gewaltfantasien

'A fascinating detective story told with humor and joy that unravels the threads of history and legend to reveal the strange stories of Britain's hill figures.'—Fiona Roberston, author of&nbsp;Stone Lands A journey through Britain’s chalklands, uncovering the stories, symbolism, and shifting meanings of the mysterious figures carved into its hills.&nbsp; Across southern England and beyond, the land bears the marks of centuries—white horses, giants, crosses, badges, even a lost panda—cut into the chalk and exposed to the sky. In The Tattooed Hills, writer Jon Woolcott travels to these remarkable sites, exploring their history and the deep cultural roots that link landscape to identity.&nbsp; Part travelogue, part cultural history, Woolcott examines how these figures—sometimes ancient, sometimes surprisingly recent—reflect the nation's collective imagination, and how their interpretations have changed over time. Once emblems of pride or remembrance, they have become mirrors of our shifting values and contradictions.&nbsp; From Iron Age hillforts to modern regimental carvings, The Tattooed Hills brings together archaeology, folklore, art, literature and music to reveal the evolving story of Britain’s chalk landscapes and the people who shaped them. Beautifully written and steeped in a sense of place, Woolcott visits many of England's Chalk figures, delving into their mysteries, including The Westbury White Horse, the Long Man of Wilmington, The Cerne Abbas Giant and the Uffington White Horse. A captivating exploration of landscape, culture, and belonging, The Tattooed Hills reveals how the Britain' chalklands connect to the past and shapes the country today.&nbsp; 'Woolcott is the most splendid company on this intoxicating, immaculately researched tour of chalky weirdness. He has a keen ear for the murmuring voice of Deep England, and the wisdom to know that the more one knows about a place or a person, the more profound the mystery.' –Charles Foster, author of The Edges of the World, Being Human and Being A Beast
