In this delightful follow-up to How to Light Your Dragon, readers see how fun life with a pet dragon can be. In five short, amusing stories full of colourful illustrations, the child and dragon playact as firefighters, doctors, and even Christmas trees! But living with a dragon is anything but normal; when they get tired and need to nap, dragons snore and little sparks come out of their nose that attract fireflies. Pure magic and wonder!

Praised by R.J. Palacio as "wondrous"--this moving memoir follows a teenage boy with TC syndrome and his exceptional family from diagnosis at birth to now. "This touching memoir is a must-read for anyone who wants to know more about the real-world experiences of a child with craniofacial differences and his extraordinary family. It's also more than that. It's a story about the love between a mother and a son, a child and his family, and the breadth of friends, helpers, and doctors that step in when the unexpected happens. It's a story that will make young readers reevaluate the word 'normal'--not only as it applies to others, but to themselves. Any book that can do that is pretty wondrous, as far as I'm concerned." --R.J. Palacio, author of Wonder In this uplifting and humorous memoir brimming with black-and-white comic illustrations, Nathaniel and his mother, Magda, tell the story of his growing up with the same craniofacial syndrome as the boy from Wonder--from facing sixty-seven sur

▁▂▃▄透過未曾公開的歷史檔案，重建一段鮮為人知的歷史讀過那麼多歐洲當代史的我們，早已十分熟悉納粹德國的惡行，也知道戰後德國如何在政治與經濟上快速地恢復生機，但很少人知道在這段「先頹敗，後振作」的德國當代史中，處處充滿著魔幻詭異的審巫案件、幾百起以上的神蹟見證事件，以及神祕難解的超信仰治療的成功案例。作者透過地方上未曾公開過的檔案，重新還原了那個光鮮亮麗的德國社會其背後深藏的不安與恐懼。▁▂▃▄在歷史中所受的心靈之傷該如何治療？人類為何會尋求超自然的拯救？綜觀歷史，我們不難發現許多人類社群在歷經災變（不論自然還是人為）之後，往往都會活在恐懼與不安之中好長一段時間。也正是在這個時候，人類的精神與內心變得脆弱不堪，亟欲找尋救命的稻草。例如日本311震災後，當地開始有災民透過超自然的方式找尋因災害而失蹤亡故的親友。為此Netflix還曾製作紀錄片簡短討論這種靈異現象發生的成因。然而令我們更好奇的是，究竟人類在經歷了那麼嚴重的心理創傷後，會尋求什麼樣的方式來療傷？對於災害頻傳的臺灣社會而言，這本書將提供一個頗具新意的思考角度。▁▂▃▄一本充滿民族誌風格的歷史書：是鄉野怪談，還是確有其事？本書作者大量採用德國地方政府的案件紀錄，包括地方報紙新聞、口述案件檔案、私人日記與信件，書寫德國地方的風俗與性格。本書也記述了許多神醫、信仰治療師、（那些被人指控為）巫師、神蹟見證者、迷信破除者，以及民俗學者對當時種種超自然現象的解讀與親身故事，讀來既有田野民族誌的既視感，也揉合著歷史書生動有趣的故事性。▁▂▃▄本書提供我們不同於以往德國近代轉型正義的視角坊間常見有關德國戰後的轉型與重建議題的書籍，大多聚焦於轉型正義這類大規模、公共的社會工程，諸如政府透過種種舉措以彌補或賠償二戰受害者，例如建立受害者紀念碑、抹除納粹相關符碼、積極補償戰爭損失、釐清戰爭責任等。然而除了從政府主導的轉型正義之外，仍有許多轉型正義的工作是出自於德國民眾個人內心的一些自發行為而來的。例如本書所提到的，因罪惡與羞恥而訴諸於靈魂的治療、重新辨明是非對錯、渴望過去的罪行得到寬恕等。這種從個人乃至社會的視角來看待德國人在戰後的行為與心態，勢必在轉型正義的議題上能提供我們更不一樣的視角。▁▂▃▄第一本從信仰治療、巫術、靈魂醫學的角度探討集體創傷的書無論是否有人真正實行巫術或看到聖母顯靈，也無論是否有人真的從超自然信仰治療中重
