Automaty se sportovní tématikou https://www.horydoly.cz/firemni-clanky/automaty-se-sportovni-tematikou-pro-ceske-hrace-kasina.html, jsou mezi českými hráči v kasinech stále oblíbenější a spojují vzrušení ze sportovních událostí se zábavou při hraní. Tyto tematické automaty nabízejí jedinečný herní zážitek, protože představují populární sporty, jako je fotbal, hokej a tenis, což dobře rezonuje se silnou vášní českého publika pro sport. Živá grafika, vzrušující hratelnost a možnost velké výhry činí tyto sloty obzvláště atraktivními. Mezitím Lovelybooks, platforma určená k podpoře lásky ke čtení, nabízí pokladnici zajímavých knih pro čtenáře všech věkových kategorií. Díky pestrému výběru žánrů a autorů pomáhá Lovelybooks rozvíjet celoživotní vášeň pro literaturu. Tato iniciativa dobře koresponduje s rostoucím zájmem českých čtenářů o intelektuální a kulturní vyžití. Stejně jako sportovní automaty přitahují hráče svými zájmy, Lovelybooks upoutávají představivost čtenářů tím, že jim umožňují přístup k široké škále fascinujících a podnětných příběhů.

Our new book in focus is A Big Mooncake for Little Star by Grace Lin
Little Star makes a great big moon cake with Mama. Mama places it in the night sky and tells Little Star she mustn’t touch it. But the delicious moon cake is just too tempting….
A delectable picture book full of warmth and love with lots of opportunities for talk about the moon.

Cassie shared the book with her family and enjoyed making playdough mooncakes and even baking some edible ones. She loves the page with the big moon and the one where Little Star is eating the delicious moon. She said it reminds her of making yummy things with her mummy.

Puppet: new book by David Almond

When Silvester the puppet maker stops performing and donates his puppets and materials to a museum he cannot resist making one last puppet; it is a labour of love. Amazingly the puppet shows signs of life – he learns to walk and even utters a word or two. He is just like the son Silvester never had. When Silvester meets Fleur, a little girl as passionate about puppet making as he is, he realises he has found someone to continue his legacy. Together they create one last magical puppet show.

This is a story brimming with warmth and wonder, celebrating the power of imagination, the magic of storytelling and the cycle of life.
