Sometimes death is only the beginning... Desperate to get to her sister in New York, Parrish Sorrows has no idea just how important she and her friends are to the survival of two very different worlds. Their abilities have been dormant for so long, the five teens have no memory of who they once were or why they were put here in the first place. All they can think about is making it through another night. But with each life that is taken by the virus, the Dark One's power grows. With each zombie that awakens as her servant, the ancient necromancer comes a little closer to escaping her prison of ice. Will the guardians survive long enough to remember their purpose? Or will the Dark One succeed in killing them before their true gifts emerge? And will they discover the traitor in their midst before it’s too late? Sorrow's Gift is Book 2 of the Eternal Sorrows Trilogy, a young adult zombie apocalypse series with witches and magic that will keep you reading late into the night. Praise for the Eternal Sorrows Series: “Imagine Stephen King's The Stand hooks up with a dark fairytale and begets The Walking Dead.” ~Goodreads Review “A Brilliant, different take on a zombie apocalypse.” ~Goodreads Review “This book is action packed, hair raising, spine tingling, and completely awesome. I loved every single minute of it and couldn't put it down!!!” ~Nerd Girl Reviews

For many of us, our earliest and most meaningful experiences with literature occur through the medium of a translated children’s book. This volume focuses on the complex interplay that happens between text and context when works of children’s literature are translated: what contexts of production and reception account for how translated children’s books come to be made and read as they are? How are translated children’s books adapted to suit the context of a new culture? Spanning the disciplines of Children’s Literature Studies and Translation Studies, this book brings together established and emerging voices to provide an overview of the analytical, empirical and geographic richness of current research in this field and to identify and reflect on common insights, analytical perspectives and trajectories for future interdisciplinary research. This volume will appeal to an interdisciplinary audience of scholars and students in Translation Studies and Children’s Literature Studies and related disciplines. It has a broad geographic and cultural scope, with contributions dealing with translated children’s literature in the United Kingdom, the United States, Ireland, Spain, France, Brazil, Poland, Slovenia, Hungary, China, the former Yugoslavia, Sweden, Germany, and Belgium.
