  What if your differences were your greatest superpower? 
  For generations, society has measured intelligence and worth by a narrow, one-size-fits-all standard, leaving countless brilliant, unconventional minds overlooked and underestimated.

  ·        Identify and harness signature strengths 
  ·        Foster joy, optimism, and self-compassion 
  ·        Navigate challenges with confidence and creativity 
  ·        Build supportive environments that unlock potential 
  ·        Rewrite the narrative from “coping” to flourishing 
  Whether you’re neurodivergent yourself, a parent, an educator, or a mental health professional, Green Capes offers a hopeful, empowering roadmap for seeing—and celebrating—the brilliance in every brain. 
  Because every mind has magic, it’s time the world saw yours.

  How Calm Whipped Up a Storm -...

  This short book is for anyone who runs or markets an app – or other startup, scaleup or challenger brand – and wants to generate a ton of buzz, coverage and attention but without having a ton of money to do so. 
  With over 1.5 million new apps launched every year – over 4,000 a day – it’s never been harder to win attention by standing out in a noisy world; and never been more crucial to do so. 
  This book is at least two things: part case study and part how-to guide. 
  It’s a case study of how one small app won way more than its fair share of buzz and attention by using creative PR, guerrilla and viral marketing that helped it grow big. 
  It’s also a guide to how YOU can do too by following Calm’s example and applying the author’s “10 Golden Rules of PR and Guerrilla Marketing.” 
  You will learn why: 
  • There are two kinds of PR – and you need to do both. 
  • Silly PR is better than serious PR. 
  • “These days only two things win attention: Celebrities and ‘Weird’.” 
  • The best form of PR is content marketing – and the best form of content marketing is guerrilla content marketing. 
  • One lightning bolt of attention is not enough; you need rolling thunder. 
  • 
  “Every app and startup should study Peter’s 10 Golden Rules of PR and Guerrilla Marketing and his advice on the secrets of creating a buzzy, talked-about brand.” 
  Michael Acton Smith, co-founder of Calm

  Funny History Bites

  In this book, we take you to meet history's most unforgettable comedians, namely humanity itself. We will explore how Christopher Columbus, dreaming of reaching India, accidentally set foot in America; how Marie Antoinette's "let them eat cake" remark led to a misunderstanding; and how Napoleon, by losing his hat at Waterloo, lost both the battle and his prestige. 
  The book will not only help us understand the past but also show us how unchangeable human nature is, how funny it can be, and how laughter can build connections even in the most serious moments. For instance, think of Archimedes' "Eureka!" moment from his bath; today, this could have been a YouTube sensation. Or imagine Neil Armstrong forgetting his camera on the Moon; this would surely cause a storm on Twitter, perhaps even trending with the hashtag #MoonCamCrisis. 
  Moreover, in these pages, you'll witness the Vikings accidentally discovering America while searching for Iceland, the Wright brothers' flight trials filled with arguments about who would fly first, 
  Edison's comical experiments with the light bulb, and even the morale-boosting power of music during the sinking of the Titanic. Each story is revitalized with modern technology, culture, and humor, offering you a chance to learn about history while laughing out loud. 
   With "Historical LOLs," we will revisit history's funniest moments, embedding them into today's digital age, social media, and humor, recalling the past with a new, laughing perspective. 
  Because history is not just filled with lessons, wars, and revolutions, but also with laughter. 
  This book brings together the comedic anecdotes of the past with today's technological and cultural world, spotlighting history's most ludicrous aspects. 
  Are you ready? 
  Then let's embark on a time-traveling journey to laugh together at history's most comical moments!
