Reiseinspirasjon

Håndbok for unge antirasister av Tinashe Williamson belyser og engasjerer, og oppfordrer til det aller viktigste: nemlig dialog. Gjennom ti kapitler og ti fiktive karakterer svarer Williamson på spørsmål som hva rasisme egentlig er, hvorfor representasjon er viktig og hva man kan si hvis man opplever at noen blir diskriminert mot på grunn av hudfargen sin.

Rasisme er et vanskelig tema for oss voksne å navigere, og for mange er det derfor ekstra krevende å snakke med barna våre om det. For hva skal man egentlig si? Hvor skal man begynne?

Denne engasjerende, inkluderende og lærerike boka er skrevet i "skoledagbokformat" med oppgaver og samtaler som barna lett kan ta med de voksne hjemme eller sammen med klassen på skolen. Målet er å gi stafettpinnen videre til den oppvoksende generasjonen, og få dem til å føle at de har makt til å forandre verden. Sammen står vi sterkere, og bare ved å anerkjenne problemet kan vi få bukt med det.

Dette er en uunnværlig bok for barn fra 9 år og oppover, og den vil fungere like godt hjemme som i undervisningssammenheng.

Experience 60 of the world's greatest adventures on water - from sailing the Nile by felucca and cruising the Canadian Arctic, to exploring Pitcairn Island by cargo ship. With detailed accounts of each route, beautiful photos and practical tips on how to plan your own voyage, Amazing Boat Journeys will help you discover a more rewarding way of travelling. From the seafaring Polynesians to the Chinese Age of Discovery, travel by water shaped the world.

That same spirit of exploration compels Lonely Planet writers today to travel by cargo freighter and fishing vessel to the world's most remote islands; to hop onto mailboats in the Bahamas; or to experience life on a historic sail-powered windjammer. These journeys are eclectic and wide-ranging, from the wonder of a glass-bottomed boat ride through Florida springs to the ease of a thatch-roofed kettuvallam exploring Kerala's famed backwaters. Old-fashioned paddlesteamers ply the length of the Mississippi in the style of the 1800s, and cruise ships on the Yangtze feature enthusiastic karaoke in Mandarin.

Off-the-beaten-path cruises include Antarctica and Papua New Guinea. On the opposite end of the spectrum from a weeks-long journey over open seas is the charm of seeing a city from the water, whether crossing Victoria Harbour via Hong Kong's classic Star Ferry, viewing the banks of London from the Thames, or traversing Bangkok on the Chao Phraya River. Each trip includes authoritative commentary, awe-inspiring photography, and details of life on board the vessel, similar routes, and how to make the trip happen.
