Pops and Boti go to a clothes store. There, they are helped by a machine that adjusts clothes for the weather, and a styliser that gives suggestions for the most fashionable outfits. They also visit the Top Hat shop, where every hat is a small technical gem. If you want to find out what Pops tried on, be sure to look inside the book!

Cześć! Masz tu niezły wybór. Czy znajdziesz dla mnie coś odpowiedniego?

Jasna sprawa! Jest nawet symulator, który dobiera ubrania do pogody.

Chętnie go zobaczymy.

Udało się! Wchodzimy.

In Doctor Monster’s waiting room Pops and Boti help count all the fingers of one adorable patient, and they meet a robot with a broken leg. They take him to a mechanic where they look at various spare robot body parts: noses, legs, ears, bellies and bums. After his leg is successfully replaced, the robot asks Pops to give a talk for robots on monster anatomy.

Pops lists parts of the body that all monsters have (lips, legs, hands, teeth) and those only some monsters have (like antennae, flippers or beaks)… and he also counts a lot.

Author: Ewa Borowska

School and Me – a new series for children who are starting their school education!

Alex and Sophie have high self-esteem. This is a very important thing. But do you know what it means?

• they think well about themselves

• they like themselves

• they know what they’re good at

• they believe in themselves

• they’re happy with themselves

Cześć, jestem Antek, a to moja koleżanka Zosia. Bardzo lubię czytać książki i rysować. Moja ulubiona lekcja to plastyka.

A ja uwielbiam tańczyć! Poza tym świetnie sobie radzę na lekcjach języka angielskiego.

Mamy w klasie dwadzieścioro troje dzieci – a każde z nas jest trochę inne! Różnimy się tym, jak wyglądamy, jak się zachowujemy albo co lubimy robić. Najważniejsze jednak, że szanujemy siebie nawzajem i chętnie sobie pomagamy. Na pewno możemy się od siebie wiele nauczyć!

Mam na imię Ewa. Jestem wychowawczynią Antka i Zosi. Bardzo mi zależy, żeby wszystkie dzieci czuły się dobrze w naszej szkole. Dlatego wzmacniam ich poczucie własnej wartości.

All this helps them to persistently pursue their goals, develop their interests and try new things without fear. See how well they’re doing at school and in their interactions with their peers!

Gabryś jest bardzo wesoły i często żartuje, ale dzisiaj wcale się nie uśmiechał. Kiedy zapytałem, czy ma jakiś kłopot, okazało się, że zgubił ulubiony piórnik! Czym prędzej powiedzieliśmy o tym pani Ewie, która zarządziła wielkie poszukiwania. Zaczęliśmy od szatni i nawet spytaliśmy o piórnik woźnego, pana Mariana, ale go nie znalazł.

Potem poszliśmy do świetlicy i… to był strzał w dziesiątkę! Na parapecie obok biurka pani Gosi leżał piórnik. Gabryś od razu się rozchmurzył. Powiedział mi też, że jestem dobrym kolegą. A ja po prostu wiem, że każdy czasem się smuci. Może przez zgubiony piórnik, a może z innego powodu. Zawsze warto zapytać, bo może da się pomóc!

He’s sad, lonely, lost, and feels like he’s falling apart… literally! All that’s left of the once funniest clown in the world is his red nose.

Moko is experiencing the hardest time of his life. He thinks there’s no one there to help him. Will anything be ever funny again?

Then – unexpectedly – he finds true friendship.

What’s Inside? A House

Agnieszka Wajda

Have you ever wondered what hides inside different rooms around a house?

You can now explore every nook and cranny of Annie and Kevin’s (Ania and Kazik’s) enormous house. Spend some time in their room, and then be sure to check out the gym and dining room.

Snoop about in the study, bathroom and the laundry room that has a little sewing corner. Make sure you leave plenty of time to see what goes on in the pantry and garage. Or perhaps the most exciting things happen up in the attic?

Four Walls. How We Lived Through the Ages

• Illustrator: Joanna Czaplewska

Author: Monika Utnik

This beautifully illustrated book will take you on a journey – from Jordanian cities carved in rock to ancient Romans villa, through medieval homes of townspeople, Louis XIV’s Versailles, and the delicate constructions of Japanese houses, all way to contemporary interiors filled with designer household objects or Ikea furniture.

Monika Utnik Joanna Czaplewska

“For many years I worked for interior design magazines, so I often had the chance to see flats whose interiors were inspired by ideas from many years ago. They were both lavish, luxurious interiors as well as contemporary houses built of concrete. There were flats filled with light, feminine furniture and flats with heavy cupboards placed underneath mirrors in gilded frames. Throughout the ages people had all sorts of ideas about what good taste meant.

kondor wielki

Wysoko w peruwiańskich Andach wznosi się królewskie miasto Machu Picchu. Zbudowano je ponad 500 lat temu za panowania najwybitniejszego władcy Inków Pachacuteka (co dosłownie znaczy „ten, który zmienia świat”). W czasach swojej świetności inkaskie imperium zajmowało tereny obecnych Peru, Ekwadoru, Boliwii, Chile, Kolumbiii Argentyny.

Co ciekawe, kiedy Inkowie przybyli w te rejony, zastali na miejscu ruiny monumentalnych budowli wzniesionych przez jakąś wcześniejszą cywilizację. Nie zrównali ich z ziemią, ale zaczęli dobudowywać do nich ściany z kamieni polnych. Dzisiaj jeden z najdłuższych takich murów (bloki skalne na dole i inkaskie ściany na górze) można zobaczyć w Cuzco, stolicy dawnego imperium Inków, na ulicy Hatun Rumiyoc.

miasto Machu Picchu

Monumentalne budowle nieznanej cywilizacji zostały postawione z samych kamieni, bez użycia zaprawy.

Bloki skalne są doskonale obrobione i ściśle do siebie przylegają – pomiędzy kamienie nie można wsunąć nawet ostrza noża. Mają różne kształty i nie tworzą równych rzędów, a ważą nawet po kilkadziesiąt ton. Do dziś archeolodzy zachodzą w głowę, w jaki sposób zostały wwiezione na szczyty Andów. Przypuszcza się, że wykorzystano do tego celu niewolników, którzy często ginęli lub umierali podczas morderczej pracy.

Dzięki nachyleniu ścian budynków i dokładnemu dopasowaniu kamieni budowle nie zniszczyły się w czasie częstych w tym rejonie trzęsień ziemi.

szczyt Huayna Picchu

Domy Inków nie miały ścian wewnętrznych. Dachy o drewnianej konstrukcji były kryte strzechą. Słynny mur w Cuzco został zbudowany z kamienia o nazwie dioryt, natomiast nie mniej znane Machu Picchu –z granitu.

Sometimes interiors were more modest, sometimes more opulent, but people always cared about where they lived and what objects they surrounded themselves with. They even left their paintings on the walls of caves – an undeniable trace of the very first ornament. I will walk you through the ages to show you how people arranged their homes – these four walls have had many different facades.”

Bepa’s parents run an intergalactic travel agency that organises trips to Earth for members of the Cosmic Community. They're always away somewhere and Bepa is feeling lonely, so she decides to adopt an earthling. Her parents aren't convinced it’s a good idea, but eventually they give in: apparently owning a human can teach you how to be responsible...

Meanwhile the agency will soon face a difficult task: organising a trip to Earth for a demanding client. The whingey professor hates mammals, but they're relying on his report to help them get admitted to the Cosmic Community by the Intergalactic Council.

How will the earthlings present themselves to the aliens? Do aliens make good friends?

Will the professor change his mind about mammals... and why does he dislike them so much anyway?

This is the first volume of a very funny and lively series of comic books by Nikola Kucharska.

Who did our Slavic ancestors believe in? What is drowning the Morana in the spring all about? How do you get rid of a mare spirit? And what do… eggs have to do with all this?!

NASZA KSIĘGAR NIA

Slavic mythology is a little complicated – there aren’t many sources available, but the writer Wiktoria Korzeniewska (who has an online presence as @SlavicBook) and illustrator Natalia

Noszczyńska took up the challenge of telling it all to younger readers in a simple and engaging way. You will learn about Slavic gods, about old traditions that survive to this day, and you will be inspired to do a bit of Slavic DIY.
