When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

Jack London — a writer whose works are enthusiastically read all over the world. His collection Love of Life is one of the brilliant pearls of his Northern stories cycle. Alaska is the place where each person should reveal their own real features. The North makes equal the poor and the rich; the intense cold does not take into account the infirmity; harsh, biting wind is indifferent to the social status, and a wild beast does not discriminate between social standings.

Братья Гримм, Якоб и Вильгельм — немецкие лингвисты и исследователи немецкой народной традиции. Собирали фольклор и опубликовали несколько сборников под названием «Сказки братьев Гримм», которые стали весьма популярными. Они также считаются отцами-основателями германской филологии и германистики. Влияние сказок братьев Гримм было огромным, с первого же издания их чудесные истории завоевали любовь детской аудитории.
