1, 2, 3 HEMBUS
by Mimi Salleh
Wana has the most joy playing along with winds and rainbows. One day, a flock of birds tweeting about a fire spreading in the near jungle and they are trying to help ceasing the flames. Wana has self-doubt : ‘Am I able to help?’ She meets Dry Leaf and Old Tree. Their wisdoms have changed Wana’s views on her own potential and self-confidence. Dry Leaf and Old Tree believe that they still benefit the world even though they are physically decaying, cracking and shredding. Wana uses her power to blow heavy clouds over the area and control the fire from spreading to a village nearby. At the end, the fire ceased. Wana is happy that she could help out for the benefit of many! Good values: - Size does not matter in doing good deeds. - Lend a hand to those in need with the resources that we have. - Everyone has the ability to be the best they can be.

September 2022Der Käptn und die Mimi Kätt
by Esther Kinsky, Gerda Raidt
So kalt! Und so viel Schnee! Die Mimi Kätt, eine schneeweiße und sehr kluge Katzendame, will am liebsten gar nicht heraus aus ihrer kleinen, gemütlichen Souterrainwohnung. Und das, obwohl ein fieser matschbrauner Mops seinen Haufen ganz genau vor das Fenster der Mimi Kätt gesetzt hat. Und jetzt ist sogar ein riesiger Ozeandampfer im Kanal vor ihrer Wohnung festgefroren! »Wie kann das denn sein?«, staunt die Mimi Kätt. Aber als sie dann den Kapitän und die Matrosen dieses geheimnisvollen Dampfers kennenlernt, mit denen man den ganzen Tag und den ganzen Abend so herrliche Lieder singen kann, wundert sie eigentlich gar nichts mehr, und sie genießt zusammen mit den Seeleuten den schönsten und verrücktesten Winter ihres Katzenlebens.

AN ANTHOLOGY OF TRADITIONAL MALAY LITERATURE
by Muhammad Haji Salleh (Editor)
This anthology of traditional and classical works is a collection of poetry and fiction, legal digests, epistles and religious treatises, narrated, sung or written in the Malay language, in the Malay Archipelago. This language was and is widespread in the Malay Peninsula, Singapore, Sabah, Sarawak, Brunei, in Kalimantan, (Indonesian Borneo), including Pontianak, Ketapang, Sintang, Banjarmasin, Kutai and Samarinda. It was the lingua franca for most of Insular Southeast Asia and even in parts of Continental Southeast Asia, and to be found in Southern Thailand, in the provinces of Satun, Patani and Nakorn Sithammarat, and some islands in Southern Philippines. This time-span of traditional Malay literature covers a period from the earliest beginnings of oral works, through the inscriptions on stone and metal, and through further developments in oral storytelling, the advent of writing. In the decades of the 18th and 19th centuries a collision with western colonial powers and their cultures has resulted in a literature that reflected this traumatic confrontation and also, the so-called ‘modern’ elements. Along with this too we notice the rise of the new genres of the report, the travelogue, the autobiography and biography, which interestingly are prominent antecedents of modern literature.

KEMBARA HENRI FAUCONNIER DI TANAH MELAYU
by Muhammad Haji Salleh & Laurent Metzger (Editor)
This collection of essays has been written by Malaysian and French scholars. At the same time, he was also a renowned novelist, who could read and draw on the meaningful aspects of the lives of the races in the country. He foregrounded their courtesy in their cross-racial relationships, and also, the sophistication of their literary expression that has captured the attention of many countries. His novel, Malaisie, has been translated into several languages; its Malaysian rendition is Nurani Tanah Melayu. These two contributions, in the rubber and palm oil industries, are now growing green and healthy, and his Malaysian narrative has also brought the proud face and soul of Malaysia to the world.

Little People, Big Dreams. Deutsche Ausgabe | Kinderbuch ab 4 Jahre
by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Octavia Bromell, Silke Kleemann
Der kleine John wuchs bei seiner Tante Mimi auf. Manchmal kam seine Mutter vorbei, zeigte ihm, wie man Banjo spielt – und sie kaufte ihm seine erste Gitarre. Mit ein paar Jungs aus der Schule gründete er eine Band. Irgendwann stieß ein Typ namens Paul zu ihnen, und sie nannten sich nun »The Beatles«. Sie machten großartige Musik, und die meisten Songtexte schrieb John: über die Liebe und die Sehnsucht nach einem anderen Leben, nach Frieden und Gleichheit ... Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Philosophin, Forscherin oder Sportler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.
