Borsuk. Władca ciemności. Biografia nieautoryzowana
Rafał Kowalczyk, Paweł Średziński
O KSIĄŻCE: Ta książka odkrywa przed nami kolejną wielką zwierzęcą postać. Jest tak samo fascynująca jak wilk czy niedźwiedź, a jednak wcześniej nie doczekała się właściwego dla siebie miejsca w polskiej literaturze. Reprezentuje dzikość w najlepszym tego słowa znaczeniu. Jest bystra i pełna nieznanych nam umiejętności. A jednocześnie tak krucha w obliczu okrucieństwa polującego na nią człowieka. Przed Państwem borsuk - bohater złożony, pasjonujący i nieuchwytny. Autorzy tworzą o nim opowieść pełną, podmiotową. Starają się zrozumieć swojego bohatera, spojrzeć na świat jego oczami, zapraszają do jego niesamowitego świata ciemności. I - co najważniejsze - jednoznacznie stają po stronie swojego bohatera, pokazując, że najwyższa pora, by zapewnić borsukom należną ochronę. KAROLINA KUSZLEWICZ, adwokatka, twórczyni projektu edukacyjnego W imieniu zwierząt i przyrody Autorzy przenoszą nas w niezwykły świat "króla podziemi". Rozległe systemy nor, w których borsuki żyją, funkcjonujące nieprzerwanie setki lat, są jak podziemne zamki arystokratów. W norach borsuki spełniają wszystkie funkcje życiowe: śpią, rodzą się i umierają. Przedstawione w tej książce wyniki badań oraz relacje osób, które z borsukami spotykają się na co dzień, czynią z niej kompendium wiedzy, jakiego w Polsce dotąd nie wydano. Autorzy nie tylko zdejmują z borsuka odium szkodnika, ale piszą o jego niezwykle ważnej roli w ekosystemie i wysuwają istotny postulat objęcia borsuka ochroną prawną. Nie ma żadnego uzasadnienia, aby był nadal na liście gatunków łownych. ROBERT MAŚLAK, zoolog, Uniwersytet Wrocławski Mało które z mieszkających w naszym kraju zwierząt obdarzone jest takim urokiem i otoczone sympatią jak borsuki. Zresztą trudno się dziwić, ten biało-czarny pysk z niewielkimi uszami i oczami jak paciorki potrafi oczarować każdego, nawet jeśli tylko zobaczy się go na zdjęciu lub rysunku. A ktoś, kto zobaczy borsuka w naturze nie zapomni tego nigdy. Mimo całej sympatii, jaką wzbudzają borsuki, powszechna wiedza na temat tych niezwykłych łasicowatych zwierząt jest niezbyt wielka. Pora ją uzupełnić, by polubić borsuki jeszcze bardziej. Dlatego bardzo polecam książkę Pawła i Rafała, z której dowiecie się bardzo wiele o życiu tych pięknych zwierząt.

Cranford Level 4 Oxford Bookworms Library
Gaskell, Elizabeth
A level 4 Oxford Bookworms Library graded readers. Retold for Learners of English by Kate Mattock Life in the small English town of Cranford seems very quiet and peaceful. The ladies of Cranford lead tidy, regular lives. They make their visits between the hours of twelve and three, give little evening parties, and worry about their maid-servants. But life is not always smooth - there are little arguments and jealousies, sudden deaths and unexpected marriages . . . Mrs Gaskell's timeless picture of small-town life in the first half of the nineteenth century has delighted readers for nearly 150 years.
Oprac. Magdalena Bąk, Jolanta Tambor
