Araminta Spook is just like any girl. She likes bats, ghosts, werewolves and vampires. One of Araminta’s greatest ambitions is to see a ghost, and living in Spook House with her aunt and uncle there is a fair chance she will. Then her Aunt Tabitha drops a bombshell: they are moving. The boiler is a MENACE, plus there are a few other issues relating to dust and spiders. Tabitha is not going to take this lying down and devises an array of Cunning Plans. She is determined to stay, and perhaps there is still a chance her greatest ambition will come true, too…

WHO STOLE THE FROGS? When something`s amiss in the Spook household, there`s usually only one suspect - Araminta. But she swears she had nothing to do with the disappearance of Barry Wizzard`s frogs, and is determined to find them (and the true culprit). But it`s not going to be easy. These aren`t just any old frogs. Araminta must deal with crazy Old Morris, a dangerous shark, and a demanding - if somewhat unexpected - audience if she`s going to find the frogs and perhaps even steal the show, too.

Um Arbeit und Beruf dreht sich fast das ganze Leben. Mit Arbeiten verbringen die Menschen mehr als ein Drittel des Tages. Arbeiten heißt, mit Hand und Kopf etwas zu schaffen, Geld zu verdienen, um den Lebensunterhalt zu bestreiten. Arbeit kann Spaß machen, aber auch zur Belastungsprobe werden. Über Arbeit und Beruf informiert dieses Buch in leicht lesbarer und übersichtlicher Form. Dabei werden unter anderem Themen wie "Berufsausbildung", "der Arbeitsvertrag", "der Lohn" und "Arbeitslos" angesprochen.
"Selbst dort, wo er zuruckblickt, ist es die Gegenwart, die er anspricht." Wilhelm von Sternburg uber Erich Maria Remarque."Arc de Triomphe" war Remarques zweiter Welterfolg nach "Im Westen nichts Neues": Mit gro?er Leidenschaft erzahlt Remarque die Geschichte des Arztes Ravic, der nach Paris emigriert und hier den Vorabend des Zweiten Weltkrieges erlebt. Aus Liebe zu zwei Frauen und dem Hass auf einen Gestapo-Agenten entwickelt sich das Drama eines Exilschicksals, in dessen Realitat sich der Aufstand gegen den Terror einer ganzen Epoche spiegelt.
"Einer der in aller Welt meistgelesenen, meistubersetzten, meistverfilmten und meistgeschatzten deutschen Autoren des 20. Jahrhunderts". (Hermann Kesten) Erich Maria Remarque - wer denkt da nicht unwillkurlich an "Im Westen nichts Neues" Im Gesamtwerk des Autors gibt es aber neben den vertrauten noch zahlreiche unbekannte oder vergessene Seiten neu- und wiederzuentdecken. "Remarque hat - wie Hemingway - die seltene Fahigkeit, Texte zu schreiben, die zugleich popular und echte Kunstwerke sind, und die es verstehen, eine Generation zu verkorpern." (Times Magazine) "Seine Sache war es, unterhaltsame und spannende Romane zu schreiben. Und er bewies der Welt, da er alles konnte, was er wollte." (Marcel Reich-Ranicki)
