iet Mondrians rigorously geometric paintings in

primary colours are icons of the 20th century that
had a powerful impact on popular taste in art and design.
This volume brings together more than 230 superb paintings with documentary images from the artists life. The

before his breakthrough to abstractionespecially his
landscape and flower paintingsis remarkably beautiful,

of an artist who is constantly looking for the next step that
will take him from traditional realism to a universal vision
of colour and form. The book includes rare photographs
of Mondrians studios in Paris and New York City as well
as reproductions of more than 1,000 known works of
Mondrians in black and white.

ts hard to meet people in a big city, let alone any city.
And after living in LA for several years as a single
lady, Audrey Shulman turned to baking. But rather
than eating her cakes solo over the sink, she brought
them to bars, enticing guys with a heady dose of butter
and sugar.
Sitting in Bars with Cakes recounts Audreys year
spent baking, bar-hopping, and offering slices of cake
to men in the hope of finding her soul mate (or, at the
very least, a date). With 35 inventive recipes based on
her interactions with guys from all walks of life, from
a Sticky Maple Kiss Cake to a Bitter Chocolate Dump
Cake, this charming book pairs each cake with a short
essay and tongue-in-cheek lesson about picking up
boys in bars.
And while Audrey didnt meet her soul mate, her
collection of stories will serve as inspiration for anyone
who has ever put themselves out there in hope of
finding true love.
Audrey Shulman is the writer of Sitting in Bars with
Cake, a blog she started with the intent to seduce men
with baked goods.

Araminta Ross was born a slave in Delaware in the early 19th century. Slavery meant that her family
could be ripped apart at any time, and that she could be put to work in dangerous places and for abusive
people. But north of the Mason-Dixon line, slavery was illegal. If she could run away and make it north
without being caught or killed, shed be free. Facing enormous danger, Araminta made it, and once free,
she changed her name to Harriet Tubman. Tubman spent the rest of her life helping slaves run away like
she did, every time taking her life in her hands. Nathan Hale tells her incredible true-life story with the

When film-loving twins Joules and Kevin Rockman left their summer camp, they thought their days
of fighting evil bunnies from outer space were over. Surely there wont be giant rabbits bent on world
domination at their school, right? Wrong. Luckily, these bunnies arent FLUFFS (Fierce, Large, Ugly, and
Ferocious Furballs)sugar-addicted giant rabbits out to hypnotise and kill. Unluckily, theyre worse:
the FOOFS (Fierce, Obnoxious, Odoriferous Furballs)seemingly normal-size rabbits (with extra-large
noses) out to take over the world! Can Joules and Kevin save themselves, and their school, from the
Schnoz of Doom?
Seriously funny New York Times bestselling author Andrea Beaty raises the stakes in this sequel to
her zany, pulpy sci-fi farce. And, not to use Famous Last Words, but with illustrations by the great Dan
Santat (The Guild of Geniuses, Sidekicks), what could possibly go wrong?
Andrea Beaty is the New York Times bestselling author of many childrens
books, including Rosie Revere, Engineer and Attack of the Fluffy Bunnies.

In 1842, Christopher Robertsons family lives a difficult life as crofters, farmers and fishermen
so in debt to the landowner that they have no hope of ever breaking free. To make matters worse,
Christopher also lives under the thumb of his morally questionable father and devious brother. When
his brother frames him for the theft of their fathers secret bag of coins, Christopher must leave his
home and embark on a journey across the island to return the coins and clear his name. Its a journey
that takes twists and turns, including stops in prison, on a smugglers ship, and at the house of a
beautiful girland it ends with him escaping to a new life in America, which has dangers of its own.
Years ago, Emilie Christie Burack discovered a set of brittle cassette tapes in a shoe box
at the back of her fathers closet on which her late grandfather had recorded his familys
history. When she learned her ancestor had come from the islands where they had little
ponies with long hair, she had to know more. She has travelled to the Shetland islands
and spent the last four years researching its history and unique Norse-Scots culture. This
is her first book.

sludge fountain at the nearby sewage plant is being retired. With this news, the three friends decide

right, as long as you have good friends at your side.

The publisher and author of Under a Pig Tree seem to be having communication issues. The
9 781419 714887
author has written a clear, no-nonsense history of figs. But the publisher is sure she meant pigs. After
all, whats the difference between two measly letters? What results is a hilarious illustrated history of
pigs, from the earliest times (Pigs were presented as medals to the winners of the first Olympics) to
the present day (There is nothing better than enjoying a cup of tea or glass of milk with one of those
famous Pig Newtons). The author, needless to say, is not happy about this little mix-up and makes her
feelings very clearly knownby scrawling all over the book!
With sticky notes from the publisher, angry scribbles from the author, wrinkles, and pages askew,

In 1924 the U.S. Army sent eight young men on a bold attempt to be the first to circumnavigate the
globe by flight. Men from five other countriesGreat Britain, France, Portugal, Italy, and Argentinahad
the same goal. The race was on!
First Flight Around the World documents the exciting journey of four American planesthe Chicago,
Boston, New Orleans, and Seattleand their crews on a race around the world. The trip held many
challenges: extreme weather, tricky navigation, unfamiliar cultures, fragile planes, and few airfields. The
world fliers risked their lives for the sake of national pride.
Based in part on the journal of one of the crew members, First Lieutenant Leslie Arnold, along with
commentary, newspaper reports, and archival images, First Flight Around the World is a captivating tale
about ingenuity, gumption, and perseverance.
