Publisher's summary
Max Butziwackel, der Ameisenkaiser ist ein Kinderbuch des italienischen Schriftstellers und Journalisten Luigi Bertelli (Pseudonym: Vamba), das 1893 erstmals unter dem Originaltitel Ciondolino erschien.
Max (der Ciondolino genannt wird, weil oft ein Teil seines weißen Hemdes hinten aus der kaputten Hose heraushängt), und seine zwei älteren Geschwister Theresa (Giorgina) und Moritz (Maurizio) müssen trotz der Sommerferien ihre Lehrbücher durcharbeiten, da alle drei ihre Schulprüfungen nicht bestanden haben. Sie befinden sich in ihrem Elternhaus in ländlicher Umgebung, doch besonders Max fällt das Studium der lateinischen Grammatik in der sommerlich-warmen Umgebung schwer. Als er sich von seinen Geschwistern absetzt und neidisch eine Ameisenstraße beobachtet, versetzt ihn ein kauziger alter Mann in Schlaf und als Max wieder aufwacht, ist er in einem Ameisenei. Bald darauf schlüpft Max als junge Ameise aus dem Ei und eine Ameisenamme namens Fusca kümmert sich um ihn, füttert ihn und erklärt ihm die Physiologie und die soziale Organisation der Spezies, der er nun angehört, indem sie ihn im Ameisenhaufen herumführt. Max (der auch seinen hinteren "Anhänger" als Insekt behalten hat) entdeckt so, dass Ameisen auch sehr viel lernen müssen: Insbesondere als ein Ameisenprofessor beginnt, mit seinen Schülern in lateinischen Begriffen über andere Insektenarten zu sprechen, verursacht dies bei ihm Magenschmerzen…
Ähnlich wie das Kinderbuch Die Biene Maja und ihre Abenteuer von Waldemar Bonsels ist auch Max Butziwackel eine Kombination aus kindlicher Abenteuergeschichte, Wissensvermittlung (Insekten allgemein, Ameisen speziell) und pädagogischer Verhaltensführung. Auch hier werden Insekten in ihren Eigenschaften vermenschlicht. Obwohl er als Ameise handelt, zeigt Max alle Verhaltensweisen eines 6- bis 12-Jährigen. Max Butziwackel steht deshalb nicht allein für die Vermenschlichung und Verniedlichung von Insekten; diese literarische Figur steht auch für Desillusionierung und die Problematik der Erwachsenenwelt. Die Geschichte von der jungen Ameise war wohl auch von Anbeginn als ein Lehrstück zugleich für Kinder und auch Erwachsene gedacht. Entomologische Fakten und die lateinischen Bezeichnungen der Insekten sind bildreich und sehr geschickt in die Handlung der Geschichte eingebaut. Manche Szenen wirken dennoch brutal und sind naturalistisch beschrieben - und daher nicht allein für Kinder geeignet. Es wäre jedenfalls sinnvoll, wenn dieses Hörbuch von Jung und Alt zugleich angehört wird, so können alle Fragen beantwortet und die Zusammenhänge leichter erklärt werden. In sehr eindringlicher Weise beschreibt Luigi Bertelli die Wunder der Natur und die natürlichen Verhaltensweisen, der in unserer näheren Umgebung vorkommenden Geschöpfe. Diese Geschichten beherbergen einen reichhaltigen Wissensschatz.
Dieses Hörbuch folgt der deutschen Erstausgabe von Max Butziwackel, diese erschien 1920 im Verlag Herder & Co. GmbH. Verlagsbuchhandlung / Freiburg im Breisgau. Übersetzung von Luise von Koch. Das Vorwort ("Zum Geleite") schrieb Anton Grumann. Covergestaltung unter Verwendung einer KI-Grafik von shutterstock _2413526713. Coverschrift gesetzt aus der Moonbeam.

Story
Eve looks like an ordinary 12-year-old girl, but there’s nothing ordinary about her. She has no last name. No parents or guardian. She’s on the run from a dangerous and secretive organization that will stop at nothing to track her down. And most astonishing of all: she’s a robot, a product of Eden Laboratories. When Eve discovers the truth, she realizes everything she thought she knew about herself is a lie. Eve manages to escape, fleeing the lab, the only home she’s ever known.

Story
The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.
