To Baby With Love: 35 Gorgeous Gifts to Make for Babies and Toddlers
To Baby with Love is the perfect collection of gifts for any newborn or toddler. The birth of a baby is such a special event, and it is a traditional time for gifts. What could be better than a gift that has been made by an adoring mother, grandmother, aunt or friend? Here, Deborah Schneebeli-Morrell - herself a doting grandmother of two - has put together a collection of 35 beautiful projects, all with charmingly illustrated step-by-step instructions and beautiful photography. For newborns, make a cosy patchwork quilt from off-cuts of cashmere sweaters or cute toys to hang above the cot.
Con men and killers, aliens and zombies, priests and soldiers - just some of the characters that kill and thrill in this compelling collection of gun-toting, double-crossing, back-stabbing, pulse-pounding stories.
The book is dedicated to one of the most popular types of test tasks - paraphrasing, i.e. expressing the same content using a different grammatical structure (or other lexical expression). The entire collection is divided into small chapters that provide guidance and training of individual structures.

Silmarillion [Illustrated ebookThe collection begins with the "Ainulindale," a creation myth, proceeds to the "Valaquenta," an elvan account of the Powers (Valar and Maiar), then to "The Silmarillion," and finally to two short pieces, the "Alkallabeth" and a short legend bridging this collection and "The Lord of the Rings," entitled "Of the Rings of Power and the Third Age."
Perhaps the greatest value to The Silmarillion is the cosmology that Tolkien uses to establish his world. There is certainly a very Christian element to it, with Eru (God) casting down the powerful, but prideful Melkor. But Tolkien also makes extensive use of Finnish, Norse, and Greek influences.
