Jackson impersonator, and playing snake charmers, taxi
drivers, and eventually a fake journalist as an actor in
New York, where he was even once told that he wasnt
Indian enough for a role. Now in paperback, No Lands

This refreshingly contemporary take on Tarot is equal parts


gorgeous art book and thought-provoking spiritual touchstone. Each page represents one of the classic 78 Tarot
cards, beautifully depicted in ethereal watercolors by
Michelle Blade and eloquently explained in text by Jen
Altman. The Circadian Tarot invites readers to start each
day by intuitively opening to a page, seemingly at random
(a technique known in the use of traditional Tarot decks
as the single draw method); the card thus revealed offers
guidance for navigating hopes, dreams, and questions
throughout the day. Modern-day seekers will treasure the
fresh look of Blades magical artwork and the age-old
wisdom conveyed by Altmans clear-eyed readings.
Jen Altman is author of several books and lives in North Carolina.
Michelle Blade is a fine artist based in Los Angeles.

Star Wars : Imperial Handbook

Obsessed With Star Wars

By Daniel Wallace

Test Your Knowledge of a Galaxy Far, Far Away By Benjamin Harper

The exciting next book in the bestselling Jedi / Sith/Bounty


Hunter series has arrived! The Empire has taken hold of the
galaxy, and high-ranking officials from each branch of the
military have created an Imperial Handbook, compiling tactical guidelines and procedures as well as mission reports and
classified documents for all newly ascending commanders.
This comprehensive manual details secrets of Imperial battle
tactics, acceptable actions for bringing swift justice to traitors,
and the Emperors long-term plan for galactic military domination. After the Battle of Endor, this copy of the Imperial
Handbook fell into the hands of the Rebel Alliance and the
reader. Well-known rebels provide a humorous running counter-commentary to the official Imperial propaganda in the
form of handwritten annotations in the margins of the pages.

In what detention block was Princess Leia held? What was


the diameter of the Death Star? Who retrieved C-3P0s head
in the Battle of Geonosis? These questions and more will
challenge even the most die-hard Star Wars fans. Now
available in paperback, this bestselling trivia book of 2,500
original questions covering little-known facts, entertaining
quotes, and tough trivia from Star Wars Episodes IVI is
the ultimate test for the true Star Wars devotee.
Benjamin Harper has written more than 25 titles, including three
previous Star Wars trivia books. He is a former editor at Lucas
Licensing and currently works at DC Comics.

Daniel Wallace is the New York Times bestselling author of many


books that explore the Star Wars universe. He lives in Minneapolis.

Ninjas Have Issues

Droll Pranks for Rich Boys

By Greg Stones

The Wealthy Young Gentlemans Guide to Horseplay


By Dan Bulla Illustrations by Ethan Rilly

Ninjas are awesomestealthy, cunning experts of infiltration and close combat. But like us all, they must sometimes
grapple with the small but significant problems of everyday
life. For instance, ninjas have issues with squirrels. They
also have trouble with chimneys, pigeons, blow darts, and
mimes. They really like hiding, going undercover, and
piatas, but have MAJOR issues with samurai, giant fighting robots, and unicorns. Through it all, they secretly long
for just one thing. Author of the breakout hit Zombies Hate
Stuff, Greg Stones turns his popular, playfully absurd illustration style to the badass but surprisingly issue-fraught
world of ninjas, detailing their inner lives and mortal combat
with a subversive sense of the absurd.
Greg Stones is an artist and the author of Zombies Hate Stuff,
Penguins Hate Stuff, Zombies Have Issues, and Sock Monkeys
Have Issues. He lives and works in Rhode Island.

Looking for a laugh at a spoiled young rich boys expense?


This deliciously mischievous volume is worth its weight in
gold. Combining sharp wit and a deadpan style, this witty
collection of more than 100 droll pranks harkens back to a
simpler, and sillier, time. Featuring spirited black-and-white
illustrations that depict the poking and prodding of nave
young chaps, Droll Pranks for Rich Boys will make even the
most refined reader fall into thrillingly unsuitable fits of
laughter.
Dan Bulla is a writer, comedian, and droll prankster based in
Los Angeles.
Ethan Rilly is a cartoonist and illustrator who lives in Montreal,
Canada.

be anything less than delicious. Whether diagnosed as
celiac, living with gluten and wheat intolerances, or simply
adhering to a healthier diet, anyone can enjoy each and

They Drew as They Pleased


The Lost Art of Disneys Golden Age : The 1930s
By Didier Ghez Foreword by Pete Docter

As the Walt Disney Studio entered its first decade and


embarked on some of the most ambitious animated films
of the time, Disney hired a group of concept artists whose
sole mission was to explore ideas and inspire their fellow
animators. They Drew as They Pleased showcases four of
these early pioneers and features artwork developed by
them for the Disney shorts from the 1930s, including many
unproduced projects, as well as for Snow White and the
Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio, and some early work for later
features such as Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan. Introducing new biographical material about the artists and
including largely unpublished artwork from the depths of
the Walt Disney Archives, this volume offers a window into
the most inspiring work created by the best Disney artists
during the studios early golden age.

They Drew as They Pleased is the first in what promises to


be a revealing and fascinating series of books about Disneys
largely unexamined concept artists, with six volumes spanning the decades between the 1930s and 1990s.
Didier Ghez is the author of Disneys Grand Tour and Disneyland
Paris: From Sketch to Reality, and the editor of the Walts People
book series. He lives in Florida.

Radical Love
By Toni Greaves

The sudden revelation of a powerful religious calling was


an entirely unexpected event in the life of a college student
named Lauren. But when it became clear to her that she
had a spiritual vocation, she made the exceptional decision
to dedicate her life to God. Drawing upon many visits to the
cloistered religious community of Dominican nuns in Summit, New Jersey, photographer Toni Greaves has created a
luminous body of work that follows the transformative journey
by which Lauren became Sister Maria Teresa of the Sacred
Heart. Presented in an exquisite photobook volume featuring a luxe cloth case, these meditative photographs capture
the radical joy of a life dedicated unequivocally to love.
Toni Greaves is an award-winning documentary, portrait, and

the lineup. Its a book for all audiences: the seek-and-find

a humble man and the heroic difference he made in the
aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.

love and family give us the strength to weather lifes changes.

The third book in the


Fish Finelli series!

Land Shark

Fish Finelli: Ghosts Dont Wear Glasses

By Beth Ferry Illustrated by Ben Mantle

Book 3 By E.S. Farber Illustrated by Jessica Warrick

The only thing Bobby wants for his birthday is a pet shark.
So you can imagine his disappointment when his parents
get him . . . a puppy. Everyone knows shark lovers can never
become dog lovers. Or can they? Full of humor and heart,
this book explores the idea that sometimes, getting exactly
what you dont want turns out to be exactly what you need.

Whooping Hollow bully, Bryce Billings, dares Fish Finelli and


his friends to enter the one-legged whalers long-abandoned
haunted house on the night of a full moon. As they prepare
for entry, they discover that if an heir to the house doesnt
come forward by the end of the week, Bryces dad will tear it
down to build a resort. Determined not to let this historic (if
ghost-infested!) house be destroyed, Fish and his friends
decode a secret message, explore a hidden tunnel, and tail
a newcomer to town to determine if there really is an heir.
Theyre racing against the clock, but will they be fast enough
to ensure Bryce and his dad dont get their way?

Beth Ferry is the author of two books for children. She lives with
her husband and three children by the beach in New Jersey.
Ben Mantle studied animation at the Surrey Institute of Art &
Design before working as an animator and illustrator. He lives in
Brighton, England.

E.S. Farber is the mother of a boy who likes facts along with his
fiction, which inspired her to create Fish Finelli. She has authored
numerous books for children. She lives in Amagansett, New York.
Jessica Warrick creates humorous illustrations for children and
childish adults. She lives in Jacksonville, Florida.

A History of Glitter and Blood


By Hannah Moskowitz

Sixteen-year-old Beckan and her friends are the only fairies


brave enough to stay in Ferrum when war breaks out. Now
there is tension between the immortal fairies, the subterranean gnomes, and the mysterious tightropers who arrived
to liberate the fairies. But when Beckans clan is forced to
venture into the gnome underworld to survive, they find
themselves tentatively forming unlikely friendships and
making sacrifices they couldnt have imagined. As danger
mounts, Beckan finds herself caught between her loyalty to
her friends, her desire for peace, and a love she never
expected. This stunning, lyrical fantasy is a powerful exploration of what makes a family, what justifies a war, and
what it means to truly love.
Hannah Moskowitz's novels have received starred reviews, landed
a spot on the ALAs Rainbow Book List, and received a Stonewall

The Chess Queen Enigma

The Spiritglass Charade

A Stoker & Holmes Novel By Colleen Gleason

A Stoker & Holmes Novel By Colleen Gleason

Evaline Stoker and Mina Holmes have reluctantly agreed


to act as social chaperones and undercover bodyguards for
Princess Lurelia of Betrovia, who has arrived in London to
deliver a letter that details the secret location of an ancient
chess queen thats been missing for centuries. But when the
letterwhich will heal a centuries-old rift between England
and the Betroviansis stolen out from under Evaline and
Minas watchful eyes, the two girls are forced into a highstakes race to ensure they find the chess queen before
anyone else does. The Stoker and Holmes series is as
culturally popular and compulsively readable as the Sherlock Holmes stories and Dracula were in the Victorian era.

After the Affair of the Clockwork Scarab, Evaline Stoker and


Mina Holmes are eager to help Princess Alix with a new case.
Willa Ashton is obsessed with spiritual mediums, convinced
she is speaking with her mother from beyond the grave.
What seems like a case of spiritualist fraud quickly devolves
into something far more menacing: someone is trying to
make Willa appear lunatic using an innocent-looking spiritglass to control her. It will take all of Minas wit and Evalines muscle to keep Willa safe. Highly entertaining, Stoker
and Holmes is for the modern-day Victorian reader.
Colleen Gleason is the award-winning, New York Times bestselling
author of more than two dozen novels. She lives in the Midwest.

House Arrest

Rhyme Schemer

By K.A. Holt

By K.A. Holt

Timothy is on probation. Its a strange wordsomething


that happens to other kids, to delinquents, not to kids like
him. And yet, he is under house arrest for the next year. He
must check in weekly with a probation officer and a therapist, and keep a journal for an entire year. And mostly, he
has to stay out of trouble. But when he must take drastic
measures to help his struggling family, staying out of trouble
proves more difficult than Timothy ever thought it would be.
By turns touching and funny, and always original, House
Arrest is a middlegrade novel in verse about one boys path
to redemption as he navigates life with a sick brother, a
grieving mother, and one tough probation officer.

Kevin has a bad attitude. He has a real knack for rubbing


people the wrong way. And hes even figured out a secret
way to do it with poems. But what happens when the tables
are turned and he is the one getting picked on? Using
elements of subversive found poetry, Rhyme Schemer is an
accessible novel in verse that is both touching and hilarious,
and will inspire voracious and reluctant readers alike. It is
a celebration of the power of words and their ability to
transform lives.

Ganeshas Sweet Tooth

Rubys Wish

By Sanjay Patel and Emily Haynes Illustrated by Sanjay Patel

By Shirin Yim Bridges Illustrated by Sophie Blackall

The bold, bright colors of India leap off the page in this
fresh and funny picture book retelling of how Ganesha came
to help write the epic poem of Hindu literature, the Mahabharata. Ganesha is just like any other kid, except that he
has the head of an elephant and rides around on a magical
mouse. And he loves sweets, but when Ganesha insists on
biting into a super jumbo jawbreaker laddoo, his tusk breaks
off! With the help of the wise poet Vyasa, and his friend
Mr. Mouse, Ganesha learns that what seems broken can be
quite useful after all. With vibrant, graphic illustrations,
expressive characters, and offbeat humor, this is a wonderfully inventive rendition of a classic tale.

Ruby is unlike most little girls in old China. Instead of aspiring to get married, Ruby is determined to attend university
when she grows up, just like the boys in her family. Based
upon the inspirational story of the authors grandmother and
accompanied by richly detailed illustrations, Rubys Wish is
an engaging portrait of a young girl whos full of ambition
and the family who rewards her hard work and courage.

Sanjay Patel is an animator, storyboard artist, and short film director for Pixar Animation Studios. He lives in Oakland, California.
Emily Haynes is an editor by day and a childrens writer by night.
She lives in Oakland, California.

Shirin Yim Bridges is the acclaimed author of several childrens

A Village Christmas:
20 Exquisite Punch-Out Ornaments
By Pamela Dalton
Carolers singing at the door, a boy bringing home the Christmas tree, children skating on
a frozen lakethese are images which evoke warm memories of a simpler time. Working
in the traditional folk art medium of scherenschnitte, scissor cutting, Pamela Dalton
painstakingly cuts paper into scenes celebrating the holiday. Ten of the ornaments apply
a high-tech laser-cutting process to precisely translate the meticulous detail and delicate
filigree of her works; each is then set in its own gilded frame. All 20 are easy to punch
out and take only moments to assemble with the decorative string supplied, creating
festive ornaments to adorn a tree or window, or to brighten a greeting or gift.

Jason Sacher is a writer and illustrator living in the wilds of southern Maine. He

by friends, acquaintances, and members of his household. He figures he must just
have one of those faces. You can read Jasons comics at www.picnicspirit.com.

La joie de vivre is best experienced


by sharing a home-cooked meal. And despite the
stereotype, you dont have to be a chef to experience
la joie of French cuisine.
The Little Paris Kitchen is a modern approach to

You may think French cuisine is


overlooked these days, stereotyped
with the stuffy image of an old-fashioned chef laboring
a terribly complicated dish, finished with a ton of butter.
s non! I say. French flavors and techniques neednt be out
of reach of the everyday home cook.

ris, I eat and cook everything from simple weekday suppers to big
nners. And just because they use fancy words like jus or blanchir
you have to have a Michelin-starred kitchen to cook great French
nly dont and Ive managed to cook up everything from feasts for
tea parties for eight to romantic three-course dinners for two.
Join me on an exciting edible French adventure.
Welcome to my little Paris kitchen . . .

Cordon Bleu cookery. With only two gas rings and a


mini oven in her petit cuisine, Rachel serves up fresh
and accessible makeovers of dishes such as boeuf
bourguignon and steak frites.
Discover a new spin on much-loved classics such
as coq au vin as skewers, croque madames baked in
muffin tins, and a startling crme brle spiked with
the beguiling twist of Indonesian long pepper. Join

Rachel as she lives out the edible adventure that is


la vie parisienne: picnicking along the Seine, chatting
up her local baker or butcher, or perched at a small
caf table with an aperitif after a day of shopping at
open-air markets and tiny spice, tea, and pastry shops.
With The Little Paris Kitchen, you will learn to take
as much pleasure in preparing the food as in eating
it. Fresh ingredients and simple techniques celebrate
Frances rich culinary culture, and Rachel shows that
its flavors are within everyones reach, no matter
where you are in the world, or how bigor small
your kitchen.
