      Nové prerozprávanie slávneho románu Jane Austenovej s úsmevnými ilustráciami Henry Dashwood síce miloval všetky svoje deti rovnako, spoločenské pravidlá však nemali pre delenie lásky (a majetku) v rovnakom pomere pochopenie. Po smrti otca musia jeho dcéry, sestry Elinor a Marianne Dashwoodové, opustiť rodičovské sídlo a presťahovať sa do vzdialeného domčeka. Zdá sa, že ich životy už nebudú také, ako predtým... Odchod donúti Elinor opustiť milovaného muža a Marianne sa zaľúbi do šarmantného, no absolútne neprijateľného cudzinca. Na kľukatej ceste k šťastiu sa sestry navzájom podporujú, nájdu však rovnováhu medzi rozumom a citom? Joanna Nadin je od mladosti veľkou fanúšičkou Jane Austenovej, preto má výborné predpoklady na to, aby sestry Dashwoodové priblížila novému mladšiemu publiku. Églantine Ceulemans zachytáva Austenovej satiru a vtip a oživuje živelnosť jej prepracovaných postáv vo vtipných čiernobielych ilustráciách. Pre deti od 8 rokov Z anglického originálu preložila Barbora Vinczeová.

      "My name is not actually Penny Dreadful. It is Penelope Jones. The 'Dreadful' bit is my dad's JOKE. But I do not see the funny side. Plus it is not even true that I am dreadful. It's just that sometimes my BRILLIANT IDEAS don't work out completely brilliantly. Like, I didn't mean for my cousin to end up bald and covered in superglue, and I also didn't mean to steal our neighbour's dog and make him speak Russian... It is not my fault. I can't help it - I'm just a Magnet for Disaster" -- www.usborne.com

      Making plan with Scarlet to deal with post-break-up trauma. We are going to channel anger into something positive and have new mission 1. Not to moon about over exes but to embrace single life. 2. To stay away from all men (Sad Ed excepted as he is not actual man. He tried to disagree on this but was outnumbered). 3. To remain true to our friends, forsaking all others. 4. To remember that we alone are responsible for our own happiness. Scarlet is right. Life will be so much easier without the complications of love. It will be utter Simple Life and am completely committed. Am starting tomorrow.

    • My quest to find 'the one' starts right now! This year I will utterly not snog random posh boys with congenital acne but will save myself for long-haired creative type with interest in tragicness and with musical potential i.e. Justin Statham. Though am not sure Justin has realised yet that I am 'the one' for him.
