The Wind in the Willows

"You will look for my power in the helping hour, and then you will forget", the sentences with a wonderful rhythm everywhere in The Wind in the Willows, having different versions.

One of the most famous animal stories of all time, The Wind in the Willows is a classic that has been entertaining children and adults alike for over a hundred years. The Wild Wood seems a terrifying place to Mole, until one day he pokes his nose out of his burrow and finds it's full of friends. He meets brave Ratty, kind old Badger and the rascally Mr Toad, and together they go adventuring … but the Wild Wood doesn't just contain friends, there are also the sinister weasels and stoats, and they capture Toad Hall when Mr Toad is in jail. How will he escape? And can the friends fight together to save Toad Hall? Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows is a classic animal adventure that charms and enthrals. This hardback edition contains the original full-colour illustrations by E H Shepard, a partnership that has never been bettered. A perfect gift for children aged 9 and above.

To All the Boys I've Loved Before Complete Collection

To All the Boys I've Loved Before Complete Collection is said as one of the best series. Maybe because the author wrote the books based on her own real experience. I suddenly remember when I read Jame Clear's "Atomic Habits", he cited that a good authour is a book.

What if all the crushes you ever had found out how you felt about them…all at once?

Lara Jean Song keeps her love letters in a hatbox her mother gave her. They aren’t love letters that anyone else wrote for her; these are ones she’s written. One for every boy she’s ever loved — five in all. When she writes, she pours out her heart and soul and says all the things she would never say in real life, because her letters are for her eyes only. Until the day her secret letters are mailed, and suddenly, Lara Jean’s love life goes from imaginary to out of control.

Best children books of all time: TIME

BBC: BEST CHILDREN BOOKS OF ALL TIME

We’re living in a golden age of young-adult literature when books ostensibly written for teens are equally adored by readers of every generation. In the likes of Harry Potter and Katniss Everdeen, they’ve produced characters and conceits that have become the currency of our pop-culture discourse—and inspired some of our best writers to contribute to the genre. To honour the best books for young adults and children, TIME compiled this survey in consultation with respected peers such as U.S. Children’s Poet Laureate Kenn Nesbitt, children’s-book historian Leonard Marcus, the U.S. National Center for Children’s Illustrated Literature, the Young Readers Center at the Library of Congress, the Every Child a Reader literacy foundation and 10 independent booksellers. With their help, TIME created two all-time lists of classics Best Children’s Books and Best Young-Adult Books.

 

Search books by ISBN, title and keyword(s), advanced search and full text search

In Search Store and Search keyword / ISBN, you can search by ISBN.

When you search by title, keyword(s) or advanced search, fragments of words and phrases included in product name / book title (and/or descriptions if such option is selected in advanced search) can be used. For example, make a search with "sho" and you will get products / books that have that fragment in their names / titles such as shoe, Photoshop. If you then in advanced search select "Search in product descriptions" then you will get more results (products that have that fragment in their descriptions).

The reason full text search is not working for a two letter word is "Search term minimum length is 3 characters". When we search two words with space each word will be taken as a separate string so the restriction will be applied for both strings. So just remove the words like "the" "of", 'and", "or" ... in your search.

Why your online store needs a wish list

What comes to your mind, when you hear the term” wish list”? The application of this feature is exactly how it sounds like: a list of things that you wish to get. As an online store owner, would you like your customers to be able to save products in a wish list so that they review or buy them later? Would you like your customers to be able to share their wish list with friends and family for gift giving?

Offering your customers a feature of wish list as part of shopping cart is a great way to build loyalty to your store site. Having the feature of wish list on a store site allows online businesses to engage with their customers in a smart way as it allows the shoppers to create a list of what they desire and their preferences for future purchase.
