i have a dream
nobel 1964
Ce conflit commence par l’arrestation de Rosa Parks, une femme noire qui a refusé de laisser sa place à un homme blanc. Il dure plus d’un an et débouche sur une victoire de Parks et King : l’interdiction de toute ségrégation dans les bus.
La marche sur Washington du 28 août 1963 se termine par l’illustre discours de Martin Luther King : I have a dream (« Je fais un rêve »), qui dit son espoir de connaître une Amérique unie, fraternelle et respectueuse des droits de tous.
King atteint le sommet de sa popularité quand, en 1964, à seulement 35 ans, il devient le plus jeune lauréat du prix Nobel de la paix.

Militantisme
Le pasteur Martin Luther King est l’un des principaux dirigeants du mouvement noir américain pour les droits civiques (droit de vote) et contre l’oppression raciale. En 1955, il organise le boycott des bus de Montgomery et, en 1963, il prend la tête de la grande marche pacifiste sur Washington pour l’emploi et la liberté. Couronnées de succès, ses actions non-violentes conduisent aux lois progressistes de 1964 et 1965 qui abolissent les principales discriminations raciales.
alchimie
Le succès des Beatles, c’est une alchimie de talents et de contextes. Garçons doués et très bien entourés (George Martin : producteur, Brian Epstein : manager), ils ont su saisir chaque tendance (pop, psychédélisme, rock…) pour en tirer la quintessence.

Si l’histoire de la musique ne devait retenir qu’un groupe pop, ce serait évidemment les Beatles. Pourquoi évidemment ? Parce qu’aucun autre groupe ne s’est autant imposé comme phare d’une génération. Les Beatles ont tout apporté : chansons, vidéos, films, dessins animés, style de vie, look, conscience sociale et politique, culture au sens large. Ils ont donné le tempo des 60’s et influencé des courants artistiques bien au-delà. Ils lèguent près de 200 chansons que l’on continuera longtemps à écouter, disséquer et apprécier.

The Small Picasso Museum • by Béatrice FONTANEL 32 pages • 195 x 260 mm • 8-12 year olds • 19,90€
Who was Picasso? Béatrice Fontanel tells his Odyssey to the young readers. From the dilapidated workshop where the young Spanish was painting with an empty stomach, to the world-famous artist, there was many steps in his life and extravagant pirouettes in his art. But Picasso was not only a painter, he also was a sculptor, an engraver, a poet, a poet's friend, a designer of decors and of ballet costumes, a ceramic artist, a perpetual inventor and a hard worker. He touched every creation materials with his golden fingers. Most of the time, he was surrounded by dogs, cats, monkeys or goats. This book gives us an overview of each of his sparkling faces. A chronological and thematical approach of Picasso's multi-facetted work. The set contains: large reproduction of Guernica

Through a large spectrum, this is a brilliant portrait of 120 shades. Conceived as a rainbow, from whites to pitch-black, it offers a poetic approach to colours and a chromatic approach to objects. Questionning our sensitivity and our knowledge, it invites us to look at our environment in a new way, through the prism of colours.

A Tree As A Friend
Children Are Naughty
A striking episode in the life of Nina Simone, one of the greatest jazz performers, who, during her first concert at 12, stood up and refused to play when her mum was forced to sit at the back of the room. An incident that contributed to her later involvement in the civil rights movement, poetically and powerfully retold in a black & white picture book.
An ecological and poetical text by an engaged author; a perfect way to learn the essential roles of each element of our planet, and how to preserve them. The colourful and dreamlike style of Pooya Abbasian’s illustrations brings dynamism and humour to this environmentally engaged picture book.
Children are naughty and parents are nice. Some children bite and don’t share their toys, some of them fight and make lots of noise. Let’s remember that parents were young once too! But were they as nice back then?

The Tree and The Fruit
Run Billie
By Jean-François CHABAS
By Claire LOUP
An essential but terrible topic: how does someone become a battered woman? How can we prevent it? A short but powerful novel told by two voices: a woman torn apart between her life as a battered wife and her role as a mother; her daughter who will, at all costs, protect her little sister from their violent father and their depressive mother while fighting to find her place.
A puzzle that draws the portrait of a young girl who lost her landmarks in success, a tense narrative, full of suspens and psychological acuity. A police intrigue built as a polyphonic novel with a variety of voices and stylistic devices such as letters, questionings, songs, diaries...
1980, Portland, Oregon. Jewel does not understand. Where is Mum gone? Will she have to stay with Dad, from now on? She is frightened with this prospect. But Esther must not feel it. Esther is her little sister, she has to protect her. In fact, Mum is at the psychiatric hospital. Because Dad hurts her. Because Dad terrorises them. As Jewel grows up, she understands, little by little, that her father is evil, but that other people on earth deserve to be loved and are worth fighting for. With this short narrative, as devastating as an uppercut, Jean-François Chabas makes us dive into the intimacy of a family in the grip of a violent man, but who appears as irreproachable in public: a daily ordeal, well-hidden. A terrible and upsetting questioning for all of us, on a taboo issue.
Run Billie is a rock band who reached the top of glory within a few months. The night of their first show in a major Parisian venue, on the eve of a great tour, Billie, the 21-year-old singer, disappears. Inspector Luka Prajnik, in charge of the investigation, hears every close relatives one after another: the other members of the band, among whom her boyfriend, her mother, her sister and her childhood friend, Joshua. Had Billie enemies? Or did she deliberately disappear to run away from pressure? Had Adèle Polgakov a hard time reconciling her personal life and her persona as Billie, the lead singer? Had she a double life? What was she hiding? The investigation reveals a fragile young woman who kept a lot of secrets, such as an epistolary relation with her first love, or the never-ending search of her Russian father. 336 pages • 13+ • April 2016
