Colette è una signora molto simpatica, ma davvero distratta: una mattina, ancora a letto, dà il buongiorno a un enorme orso bianco, poi stende un gatto ai fili del bucato e, come se nulla fosse, esce portando a spasso un coccodrillo... E che dire del riccio-spazzola, della tartaruga telecomando o dell&'alce-attaccapanni? &"Hai sentito, cara, che ieri sono scappati gli animali dello zoo?&" le chiede il marito, rincasando la sera. Se a questa notizia aggiungiamo il fatto che Colette ha indossato per tutto il tempo gli occhiali sbagliati, la sua giornata particolare è bella e spiegata. In fondo al libro, breve storia degli... occhiali. Età di lettura: da 5 anni.

This is a highly illustrated ebook that can only be read on the Kindle Fire or other tablet. "Look no further: the What''s Happening to Me? Books are nothing short of brilliant. They aim to help children aged nine and above understand bodily changes and they do this extremely well.Susan Meredith answers the questions young girls want to ask but might feel afraid to. It''s all there: getting measured up for a bra, periods, using towels and tampons, feeling, diet, health and hygiene and there is also a section on what happens to boys.The text is informal, chatty, full of useful facts and packed with considerate advice and support. A book like that wouldn''t work as well without graphics and diagrams, and the illustrations are colourful and engaging as well as informative." - John Dabell, TES Magazine

This work demonstrates the change in how speakers use language to request, thank, and perform other interpersonal verbal tasks in Hmong, an immigrant language now spoken in Wisconsin, Minnesota and California, as well as in its native Laos.
