❑TRADUÇÃO DO TEXTO:
More Than Just Children’s Books
Mais do que apenas livros infantis
Krumulus, a small bookstore in Germany, has everything a kid could want: parties, readings, concerts, plays, puppet shows, workshops and book clubs.
A Krumulus, uma pequena livraria na Alemanha, tem tudo o que uma criança pode desejar: festas, leituras, concertos, peças de teatro, espetáculos de marionetes, oficinas e clubes do livro.
“I knew it was going to be very difficult to open a bookstore, everyone tells you you’re crazy, there will be no future,” says Anna Morlinghaus, Krumulus’s founder.
“Eu sabia que seria muito difícil abrir uma livraria, todo mundo diz que você está louco, que não haverá futuro”, diz Anna Morlinghaus, fundadora da Krumulus.
Still, she wanted to try. A month before her third son was born, she opened the store in Berlin’s Kreuzberg district.
Ainda assim, ela queria tentar. Um mês antes do nascimento do seu terceiro filho, ela abriu a loja no bairro de Kreuzberg, em Berlim.
BERLIN — On a recent Saturday afternoon, a hush fell in the bright, airy “reading-aloud” room at Krumulus, a small children’s bookstore in Berlin, as Sven Wallrodt, one of the store’s employees, stood up to speak.
BERLIM – Numa recente tarde de sábado, o silêncio caiu na luminosa e arejada sala de “leitura em voz alta” da Krumulus, uma pequena livraria infantil em Berlim, quando Sven Wallrodt, um dos funcionários da loja, se levantou para falar.
Brandishing a newly published illustrated children’s book about the life of Johannes Gutenberg, the inventor of the printing press, he looked at the crowd of eager, mostly school-aged children and their parents.
Brandindo um livro infantil ilustrado recentemente publicado sobre a vida de Johannes Gutenberg, o inventor da imprensa, ele olhou para a multidão de crianças ansiosas, a maioria em idade escolar, e seus pais.
“Welcome to this book presentation”, he said. “If you fall asleep, snore quietly”.
“Bem-vindos à apresentação deste livro”, disse ele. “Se adormecer, ronca baixinho”.
Everyone laughed, but no one fell asleep.
Todos riram, mas ninguém adormeceu.
An hour later, the children followed Wallrodt down to the bookstore’s basement workshop, where he showed them how Gutenberg fit leaden block letters into a metal plate.
Uma hora depois, as crianças seguiram Wallrodt até à oficina na cave da livraria, onde ele lhes mostrou como Gutenberg encaixava letras maiúsculas numa placa de metal.
Then the children printed their own bookmark using a technique similar to Gutenberg’s, everyone was thrilled.
Depois as crianças imprimiram o seu próprio marcador usando uma técnica semelhante à de Gutenberg, todos ficaram emocionados.

❑TRADUÇÃO DO TEXTO:
How the American Dream has changed
Como o sonho americano mudou
The phrase ‘American Dream’ was officially coined just under 90 years ago in a book called The Epic of America by James Truslow Adams.
A frase ‘American Dream’ foi oficialmente cunhada há pouco menos de 90 anos em um livro chamado The Epic of America, de James Truslow Adams.
He argued it was “that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement.”
Ele argumentou que era “aquele sonho de uma terra em que a vida deveria ser melhor, mais rica e mais plena para todos, com oportunidades para cada um de acordo com sua capacidade ou realização”.
Today: No single American Dream?
Hoje: Nenhum sonho americano?
For some today the American Dream means a chance for fame and celebrity, while for others it means succeeding through the old adage of family values and hard work.
Para alguns, hoje, o sonho americano significa uma oportunidade de fama e celebridade, enquanto para outros significa sucesso através do velho ditado dos valores familiares e do trabalho árduo.
Still others believe that the American Dream just represents a world closed to all but the elite with their wealth and contacts
Outros ainda acreditam que o Sonho Americano representa apenas um mundo fechado a todos, exceto à elite com a sua riqueza e contatos.
Meanwhile, surveys have found that almost half of all millennials believe the American Dream is dead.
Entretanto, pesquisas revelaram que quase metade de todos os millennials acreditam que o sonho americano está morto.
In an ever-changing country, the idea of what the American Dream means to different people is changing too.
Num país em constante mudança, a ideia do que o sonho americano significa para diferentes pessoas também está mudando.
