  Cornelia Funke is a German writer. Her famous story «Inkheart» is a rich story centred around a 12-year-old book lover whose father has a unique gift for bringing the world of books to life. «Inkheart» was the first in a trilogy and Funke followed with «Inkspell» and «Inkdeath». Before writing «Inkheart», she learns about booksellers, book collectors, book thieves and even book murderers as well as reading about martens and fire-eaters. She then imagines the characters and the places they might go, writes down lines for the first 20 chapters. Then, and only then — after about six months — she writes the first sentence. A novel will take her about a year to write. She always does her own sketches — in pen and ink, she creates a picture of her own characters to help her write about them. She married printer Rolf Funke in 1981. They have two children, Anna and Ben. Up until 2005 the Funke family lived in Hamburg, Germany, when they moved to Los Angeles. Sadly, in March 2006, Rolf died of cancer.

  Built five thousand years ago, the mysterious stone circle on the Salisbury Plain, in southern England attracts many visitors. Some have thought that the large stones were set to worship the gods of the ancients, while others have said that it was an observatory or solar chronometer to mark the seasons. Its purpose has been lost to history, but its beauty has stood the test of time. Visits inside of the centre circle of the site are not allowed during normal hours, but can be arranged at other times.
