Beschreibung

In May 2023, Brian Porter and his wife added a new member to their family of rescue dogs: in this case, a tiny Dachshund puppy who they named Heidi.
 
She had been the runt of a litter and barely survived her first day of life. Only the love and devotion of the lady who bred her managed to literally breathe life into her lungs, and proceeded to hand-rear her for the first two crucial weeks of her life. Having recently lost their beloved Muttley, the Porters decided to give this beautiful puppy a home.
 
This book chronicles Heidi’s first year with the family and how she was accepted immediately by the rest of the dogs, despite some initial worries by Brian and Juliet. Anyone who’s ever raised a puppy will recognise many of the trials they went through in those early months: the laughs, the utter mayhem and the satisfaction that comes from seeing an undersized, weak and vulnerable puppy dog grow and learn to love life.

    In this 2022 interview with Justine Willis Toms, long-haul commercial pilot Mark Vanhoenacker opens our vision to a more expansive landscape. He is a seasoned pilot and a brilliant lyrical writer about his journeys as experienced both from the air and on the ground where he chronicles for us some of the planet’s great cities. He is also a regular contributor to The New York Times and a columnist for the Financial Times. 
    He says, “I get to so see so much of the urban world, in particular, and it's a joy for me to share it as best I can… Travel is a miracle and is something that would have amazed almost all humans who have ever lived to be able to travel the way some of us do now.” Vanhoenacker reminds us how magical it is to take to the sky.  
    Mark Vanhoenacker is the author of Skyfaring: A Journey with a Pilot (Alfred Knopf 2015), How to Land a Plane (The Experiment; Illustrated edition, 2019) and Imagine a City: A Pilot’s Journey Across the Urban World (Alfred Knopf/Penguin Random House, 2022)

    Don't Forget to Flush is John Eaton's second collection of humorous verse. It is an eclectic collection of poems that will make you laugh, ponder, and perhaps rethink your worldview - all from the comfort of the "small room".   
     
    Eaton sees the world through a unique lens. His work spans topics far and wide: the quirks of human nature, the wonders of the natural world, the nuances of politics, and the intricacies of relationships. You'll enjoy his mischievous pen as he skewers pretension, roots for the underdog, and manages to take on current events with a wink and a nod.  
     
    This latest collection includes 116 amusing and creative poems.  Examples include:  
     
    Billly and Benny (the Flowerpot Men-ny), a tribute to terracotta friends; 
     
    Jackboot and Jillboot - lighthearted odes to his-and-hers' footwear; 
     
    The collection also tackles national news with cheeky humour.  
     
    "Barnard Castle is the place to be, 
    A pleasant journey for my family 
    Where I can quarantine flexibly 
    To test my eyesight specifically." 
    (continued).' 
     
    And things that are neither here or there ... 
     
    "I went to a rendezvous to see Ron Devue. 
    I thought I had deja vu but jamais vu."
