Summary

America’s favorite comic strip heroine and her mother star in this hilarious and heartfelt celebration of the bond between mother and daughter. 
 
A modern Everywoman, Cathy endeared herself to millions of fans who share her struggles with the four basic guilt groups: food, love, mother, and career. This comic page heroine blazed a trail for single working women and for her pursuit of perfection against all odds. 
 
The most beloved mother-daughter duo is back with their comic take on the difficult, wonderful, one-of-a-kind relationship between neurotic daughter Cathy and her caring, comforting, slightly interfering mother. Insightful observations, amusing advice, and comical proclamations are paired with Cathy Guisewite’s distinctive illustrative style.  
 
  
 
Cathy’s comics continue to be a cartoon icon and a familiar, yet fresh voice for females of all ages. A perfect Mother's Day gift or a great present to celebrate how glorious, complex, intense, entwined, and amazingly beautiful bonds between mothers and daughters can be.

    From the popular blog, a hilarious and horrifying survey of quotation mark abuse in all its forms. 
     
    From the sarcastic to the suggestive, here are quotation marks as we love them best, doing horrible damage to the English language. Who wouldn’t have second thoughts about ordering the “hamburger” on the diner’s menu? Would it be best to skip the “blowout” sale at the department store? What hidden price must be paid for something marked “free”? Assembled by the creator of the wildly popular “Blog” of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks, this book surveys the havoc wreaked by quotation marks on signs, menus, placards, and posters that leave reality upended by supposed “facts.” This smarty-pants guide is “perfect” for desperate grammarians, habitual air quoters, and anyone who appreciates a good laugh.

    The AMX 13 was originally designed in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War.   It represents French ambitions for national resurgence and withdrawal from wartime dependence on American military technology.Being a light tank it was an ambitious and far sighted departure from conventional tank design and it found a ready export market as well as being a critical part in the French Army arsenal.  Its basic hull design lent itself to the development of a vast list of variants.French designers progressively modernized, and indeed reinvented, the AMX13 and enabled it to claim to be one of the most successful armored vehicle programs of the postwar period.  It proved its worth in numerous small wars worldwide in the service of many countries.This, the first commercially published work on the AMX13 in English, examines in detail the technical industrial and tactical story of this remarkably successful armored fighting vehicle.  The authoritative text is backed by an impressive selection of images

    From No. 1 best selling Self-Help, Counselling and Travel author Pearl Howie – the audiobook of her mini-guide to visiting grey whales in Mexico.I used to get extremely burnt out and couldn’t even handle booking a hotel or flight when I did have time off.  I thought “Wouldn’t it be awesome if someone would write a guide that gave you one perfect escape; the perfect hotel, spa, flight and restaurant.”  So that’s what I did.This guide to San Ignacio and Guerrero Negro gives you the places to stay, (no spa this time, sorry), the ways to see the grey whales up close and personal, and the rest.Despite this being one of my wildest adventures, it is also one of the simplest, because to get there the choice is simple... You either go north, or you go south.  There is only one road.I had so many reasons for writing these books - to provide a quick guide for people who think travelling to a special place is beyond them and to enlighten people as to the magic that exists in certain spots, but these are also just simple stories… for dreamers, for those who know their legs will just not carry them to these places, for the unadventurous adventurer, for the person who can't imagine ever going or wanting to go, these stories are just a way of sharing my awareness of a certain place that was important in my journey, however that serves you."You will come away feeling as if she was sharing with you personally and will want to read more of her life adventures.”“I’ve just booked my first holiday in 13 years!”"To me, you are a hero... You have learned to take something negative in your life and make it a positive... a gift to others. It doesn't get any better than that. Don't doubt that you are capable of helping others... in terms of other of life's difficulties... What an adventure!"  Susan Jeffers, Ph.D., author of "Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway"Not small, just travel size.
