Presidents, planets and a person called Poop. An awesome alien adventure for any age group! How would you feel if aliens landed in your back garden? What would you do if the Men in Black turned up at your front door? Probably poop your pants! (I know I would). And not just one alien. An entire army of aliens... ancient aliens... awesome aliens... Four different species of aliens, each ready to rule the world, save the world, stop the world or eat every last person on the planet! What the world needs now is a new brand of superhero! Super-duperheroes, and super-sheroes... all younger, more dynamic, more adventurous and willing to risk life and limb to leap over a paddling pool full of pee. These are the Guardians of the Garden. A new breed of superhero... Except one. He's really old. He's so old that nobody knows how old he actually is... not even the old geezer himself. Grandpa Jock makes an impressive superhero landing in his first fist-pounding, heart-pumping adventure in the Gorgeous George universe. The usual suspects, George, Allison and Crayon Kenny are there, along with the welcome return of those cool kids next door, Ben and Barbara. If you've never read a Gorgeous George adventure before, first of all, WHY NOT? and second of all, start with this one. It's like an instruction manual... This book might just save your planet! Standalone or read as part of the series.

An up-close look at the democratic race for the White House—it isn't pretty Spanking the Donkey is a campaign diary like no other. Celebrated reporter Matt Taibbi turns a withering eye on the kissing contest of puffed-up martinets and egomaniacal fantasists more generally known as the 2004 Democratic primaries. Taibbi's contempt for the whole charade, and for most of those involved (including a generous helping of his fellow journalists), makes for a searing and highly entertaining account. His refusal to take the proceedings seriously leads him to volunteer for Wesley Clark's New Hampshire campaign in the guise of an adult-film director, while his take on a John Edwards press conference in New York City is filtered through the haze of hallucinogenic drugs. Taking up residence in slums and halfway houses as he follows the circus around the country, Taibbi juxtaposes an idiotic dog-and-pony show in which clashes of plainly identical candidates are presented as real controversies, with the quite separate concerns of the ordinary Americans whose lodgings he shares. The gap between the antiseptic exercise in faint patriotic optimism that is mainstream politics and the harsh realities of life for the millions of Americans that the electoral parade simply passes by has never been more sharply, or hilariously, sketched.

It all started when I told my friend Art I would meet him on the corner of Fifth and Fifty-Third. I didn't see him. So I asked a lady walking up the avenue, 'Have you seen Art?' 'MoMA?' asked the lady. 'Just down Fifty-Third Street here.' When this address turns out to be the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, confusion and hilarity ensue. As the narrator continues looking for Art inside MoMA, he views the best pieces of modern art.

Since its publication in 1984, The Mysteries of Harris Burdick has stimulated the minds of readers of all ages and backgrounds. Now the original fourteen drawings are available in a large portfolio edition of loose sheets. In addition, a newly discovered fifteenth drawing, titled The Youngest Magician, has been added, as well as an updated introduction by the author. The puzzles of these mysterious drawings will be even more provocative because of the larger size and the exceptional printing quality. For the first time, the drawings can be shared with groups or displayed singly. The Mysteries of Harris Burdick was a New York Times Best Illustrated Book of 1984.
