Dans un volume d''une richesse sans pareille, Thierry Laval invite le lecteur à aiguiser son œil en partant à la découverte des cinq continents. Cherche et trouve sur les cinq continents n''est pas un atlas.

Sur le même principe que les autres titres de la collection, des éléments de la scène centrale sont repris sur les volets : une approche très ludique de la géographie, avec toujours autant d''humour ! Quelques exemples... Asie Panda, tigre, yourte, vache sacrée, Taj Mahal , fakir, cobra, dragon, cerisier, Muraille de Chine, Bouddha, Hymalaya, temple, cyclo-pousse, palanche, sampan, jonque, rizière, tsunami, steppe, Le Gange, tapir, chameau, yack, petit panda, joueur de cithare, char à boeuf, éléphant sacré, pagode, bonze, sari, sikh, Cité interdite, bume, bambous, samouraï, sumo, mont Fuji, cerf-volant, Ganesh, Vishnou, etc. À partir de cinq ans.

Discover the fascinating history of California's missions. From 1769 to 1823 Spain established twenty-one missions in Alta (or upper) California. These twenty-one missions were charged with converting the natives to Christianity, and provided an important strong-hold for Spain in Alta California. Graced with original artwork, historical art renderings and color photos, this exquisite book was written by Msgr. Francis J. Weber of the Los Angeles Archdiocese. He takes you along El Camino Real where the missions were established and introduces the 142 Spanish friars who administered them and the native peoples who were brought into the fold of Christianity and Spanish culture. Written in a style directed to inquisitive students, casual readers and even serious scholars, this treatise helps the reader understand the story of the missions within the context of the times and areas in which they existed and in the values of those who staffed and supported them.

Le mercredi, c’est le jour des enfants.Certains en profitent pour pratiquer leur activité préféré, cheval, peinture, football. Certains vont au centre aéré et en profitent pour faire des jeux ou des sorties. Pour d’autres, c’est le jour de la bibliothèque ou de la ludothèque. Certains enfin vont à la piscine pour apprendre à nager ou encore s’amuser avec leurs frères et soeurs. Mais les mercredis les plus réussis, ceux qui mettent tout le monde d’accord, sont sans aucun doute ceux où l’on est invité à une fête d’anniversaire.Encore plein de bonnes raisons d’ouvrir l’oeil pour retrouver dans les grandes images tout ce qui est dessinés sur les volets.
