    • A timeless story celebrating friendship and imagination, from an exciting new voice in children's literature. Mabel lives with her parents in the Mermaid Hotel, by the sea. Mabel likes to keep an eye on the comings and goings of all the guests. Then one day a particularly in-ter-est-ing old lady comes to stay. There is something very suspicious about her, with her growly voice and her heavy trunks and her beady-eyed tortoise. And why does no one know her REAL name? There can only be one answer, Mabel decides... this guest is a supervillain. But even supervillains have a soft side, and as an unlikely friendship grows between the pair, their fantastical exploits take them well beyond the corridors of their seaside home.

      Miss Dahl's Voluptuous Delights
    • The fabulously eccentric (and secretly kind) Madame Badobedah returns for another escapade in this call to adventure--and ode to female explorers and pioneers--from Sophie Dahl and Lauren O'Hara. Mabel lives with her parents in the Mermaid Hotel, where she keeps an eye on all the guests, particularly her friend, the endlessly fascinating Madame Badobedah. Madame Badobedah, who considers herself part of a long tradition of daring women such as Amelia Earhart and Zora Neale Hurston, has pirouetted through pyramids, swum with mermaids, and helped a triceratops with a toothache. Just opening one of the drawers in her dressing table full of mementos elicits tales of banshees and curses and an exciting new quest: a reverse jewel heist! On a mission to return a priceless "borrowed" emerald, Mabel and her adopted godmother don their best spy costumes and head to the Natural History Museum, where they might just meet an old--very old--friend. But as Mabel discovers, no one is too young or old for adventure, because it's adventuring that makes life worthwhile. In concert with Lauren O'Hara's fantastical illustrations, Sophie Dahl spins a tale of intergenerational friendship that shines like Madame Badobedah's found sea glass: a colorful treasure.

    • Ihre Großmutter Gee-Gee vermittelte ihr die Vorliebe für Polenta, Grünkohl und Zitronenkuchen; der Großvater Roald vererbte ihr seine Leidenschaft für Schokolade, Borschtsch und Burgunder. Die ganze Familie ist begeistert vom Essen, und so ist es kein Wunder, dass Sophie Dahl als Model mit Rubens-Figur berühmt wurde – die sinnliche Antwort auf Kate Moss. Heute ist sie nicht minder erfolgreich mit ihrer Philosophie des Genuss-Essens: kein Kalorienzählen, sondern erfrischende Wellness-Küche. Mit opulenten Bildern, charmanten Texten und ausgesuchten Rezepten bietet Sophie Dahl in diesem Buch einen sehr persönlichen und charmanten Einblick in ihr Leben und verführt mit ihrer unverstellten Freude am Genießen.
