Lise Bendtsen
Jeg har sammen med Carol Livingstone forfattet A Piece of Cake 1 på Alinea. En engelskbog for første klasse med vægten lagt på at indlæring skal være aktiverende og sjovt. Sange og lege er derfor de bærende elementer. Jeg har min baggrund som engelsklærer i over 35 år på en privatskole med høje faglige ambitioner. Jeg har undervist på alle niveauer, og var også med til at undervise helt nede fra børnehaveklassen, allerede inden lovgivningen om tidlig engelskundervisning trådte i kraft.
Lara Cardella
Lara Cardella (born November 13, 1969 in Licata, Italy) is an Italian writer. She is best known for her best seller novel Good girls don't wear trousers.
Her first book Good girls don't wear trousers (in Italian: Volevo i pantaloni), written when she was nineteen, caused a scandal in the small Sicilian community where she lived because it fiercely criticized what she perceived as the backwardness and chauvinism of contemporary sicilian society.
