Описание: Media narratives inform our ideas of the future - and Games are currently making a significant contribution to this medial reservoir. On the one hand, Games demonstrate a particular propensity for fantastic and futuristic scenarios. On the other hand, they often serve as an experimental field for the latest media technologies. However, while dystopias are part of the standard gaming repertoire, Games feature utopias much less frequently. Why? This anthology examines playful utopias from two perspectives. It investigates utopias in digital Games as well as utopias of the digital game; that is, the role of ludic elements in scenarios of the future.

Описание:
I'm a? A Book of Rhymes, Riddles, and Choices is a children's picture book, made for kindergarteners, preschoolers, toddlers, and infants. In addition to a great story for kids, it's an interactive activity, being that you are able to read to or with your child, and then go through which object from the multiple-choice page they think the riddle is referring to. This will improve concentration and memory, evolving their cognitive development and preparing them for school. It's educational by teaching young children words, characteristics, and objects. When you open I'm a?, you'll follow a girl and boy named Rachel and Randy on a detective adventure as they solve the riddles. "Black, white, brown or plush, with claws and sharp teeth, I'm really, very tough. I'm a?" On the opposite side will lie the answer key or choice page. You'll then turn the page and be met with the illustration of the correct answer to the riddle, such as an African safari to be greeted by a lion, the beach where they find a seashell and build a sandcastle, or the forest where they meet a bear by the river. Next to the colored illustration is the answer with a matching rhyme, "Bear. Have some honey I've got plenty to share". This is children's literature that uses simple context for the beginner reader and introduces independent thinking with problem solving. The riddle contains a word written in the same color as the correct answer, giving them a little clue. Examining the evidence and using the facts to solve will only boost their self-confidence and decision-making skills. I'm a? is a feel-good book for the youth, made with critical thinking in mind but is equally cute and happy. While ideally for elementary, kindergarten, and preschool, it can be a rhyming, picture book to read to infants as well, aiding in brain development and early learning. Whether you're a parent, teacher, or relative, you'll enjoy reading these riddles just as much as your young readers love listening to them. A new, joyful family or classroom reading experience that will keep kids interested and entertained. Made for playtime, story time, or bedtime you're sure to enjoy this book with your little ones at any time.

Описание: Someone has built a house, piece by piece. Was it Jack? Find out in this board book with a humorous twist on a classic nursery rhyme. Someone has done a lot of work building a house. Someone has been operating a cement mixer, driving a bulldozer, and using a forklift to build walls, frame windows, and nail down a roof. Someone has built a big, strong home for Jack. But is this the house that Jack built? One tired puppy dog disagrees in this story about getting what you work for. Adorable illustrations by award-winner Mike Wohnoutka of a construction pup with a tool belt are sure to engage even the youngest dog-lover. Combined with the author's text that teases playfully with the images, Jack's House is a refreshingly fun take on the classic nursery rhyme, This Is the House that Jack Built.

Описание: A vibrant, moody contemporary mystery with a classic feel exploring righting past wrongs, redefining family, and finding yourself. Twelve-year-old Lark Heron-Finch is steeling herself to spend the summer on Swallowtail Island off the shores of Lake Erie. It's the first time that she and her sister will have seen the old house since their mom passed away. And while her stepfather and his boys are okay, the island's always been full of happy memories--and now everything is different. When Nadine, a close family friend, tells Lark about a tragic boat accident that happened off the coast many years before, Lark's enthralled with the story. Nadine's working on a book about Dinah Purdy, Swallowtails's oldest resident who had a connection to the crash, and she's sure that the accident was not as it appeared. Impressed by Lark's keen eye, she hires her as her research assistant for the summer. And then Lark discovers something amazing. Something that could change Dinah's life. Something linked to the crash and even to her own family's history with Swallowtail. But there are others on the island who would do anything to keep the truth buried in the watery depths of the past. A compelling and complex mystery with a classic feel, Wreck at Ada's Reef is perfect for fans of The Parker Inheritance, Holes, The Westing Game, and anyone looking for a satisfying puzzle that stretches across decades.

Описание: Gaming no longer only takes place as a "closed interactive experience" in front of TV screens, but also as broadcast on streaming platforms or as cultural events in exhibition centers and e-sport arenas. The popularization of new technologies, forms of expression, and online services has had a considerable influence on the academic and journalistic discourse about games. This anthology examines which paratexts gaming cultures have produced - i.e., in which forms and formats and through which channels we talk (and write) about games - as well as the way in which paratexts influence the development of games. How is knowledge about games generated and shaped today and how do boundaries between (popular) criticism, journalism, and scholarship have started to blur? In short: How does the paratext change the text?
