    This program is read by the author.A Good Morning America Buzz PickFrom the author of Class Mom and You've Been Volunteered comes a new audiobook on one mom's challenges through parenting and life, keeping her on her toes and perpetually in yoga pants.Jen Dixon of Overland Park, Kansas—fearless mother of a fifth-grade boy and two thirty-something daughters—is used to juggling a lot, from her mission to become a spin instructor, to stepping in as the most acerbic class mom ever (again), to taking care of her two-year-old granddaughter. But when the PTA president throws her a mandate to raise $10,000 for the fifth-grade class, even unflappable Jen is going to need more than her regular spin class to get her through this final year at William Taft Elementary School.In the midst of new complications—organizing the class overnight to Topeka, an unexpected spin class fan in the form of her husband’s crazy ex-wife, and trying to navigate her parents’ sudden descent into apparent delusions—Jen hardly has the patience to listen to yet another half-baked idea (come on, ladies, another wrapping paper sale?) from WeFUKCT (We Fundraise Until Kingdom Come Team), her fundraising committee. But if anyone can get elementary parents to pull off the impossible, it’s Jen Dixon.With her always irreverent and laugh-out-loud humor—boldly holding forth on those things you’re thinking, but would never dare say out loud—Laurie Gelman shines a light on the indignities and hilarities of modern parenting.A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt and Company

    The follow-up to Caitlin Moran's breakout hit, How to Be a Woman—A hilarious collection of award-winning columns, available to American listeners for the first time ever.Possibly the only drawback to the bestselling How to Be a Woman was that its author, Caitlin Moran, was limited to pretty much one subject: being a woman. Moranthology is proof that Caitlin can actually be "quite chatty" about many other things, including cultural, social, and political issues that are usually the province of learned professors or hot-shot wonks—and not of a woman who once, as an experiment, put a wasp in a jar and got it stoned. Caitlin ruminates on—and sometimes interviews—subjects as varied as caffeine, Keith Richards, Ghostbusters, Twitter, transsexuals, the welfare state, the royal wedding, Lady Gaga, and her own mortality, to name just a few. With her unique voice, Caitlin brings insight and humor to everything she writes.Contains mature themes.

    A comedian’s career is ended after a presidential assassination, and a journalist tries to track him down decades later, in this darkly humorous novel.    In 1963, Jimmy Wynn was the second most famous man in America. The comedian’s uncanny impression of the president made him a star. But when the genuine article died in a hail of bullets on a sunny afternoon in New Orleans, Jimmy’s career met a fate almost as grisly. What happened to the funny man afterward was a mystery no one cared to solve.   Nearly twenty-five years later, Nathan Grant, an ambitious young journalist, discovers the trail Jimmy cut through the entertainment netherworld. He soon comes to realize that this forgotten court jester may have played a very serious part in the country’s favorite conspiracy theory. His strange and increasingly dangerous odyssey takes him from a dingy New York record store to the showrooms of Las Vegas, a ghost town in the Mojave Desert, and even a dinner theatre in Niagara Falls, in a dark comedy about the cost of fame, the story of a man who became a punchline and a writer who is desperate to find out how the rest of the joke goes.   “A weird and hilarious trek through American faux-history.” —Richard Scrimger, author of Mystical Rose   “An amazing feat of invention and imagining. In the alternate reality of Showbiz, things are funny, touching, and very true.” —Paul Quarrington, author of King Leary

    'Crump the Cat, ' combines three hilarious satirical tales in one audiobook that the whole family can enjoy. Told in rhyming verse, Crump is an orange tomcat with inherited wealth who is famous for his TV show, the ‘The Appurrentice.’ His fans love Crump’s affluent lifestyle and his bombastic, winner-take-all attitude. When Crump wins the presidency, he promptly turns the world inside out to fit his golden image and creates a dystopia where only orange cats are welcome. Of course, all his short-sighted policies allow for the perfect storm of repression and unintended effects. Crump the Cat is an entertaining allegorical tale in which all kinds of cats come together at the end to triumph over inequality and racial discrimination. 
    'Crump the Cat, ' is described by Midwest Book Review as, "Political satire at its wicked best." As part of the Audiobook there are also two bonus stories included, 'Bobo the Baboon' and 'A Titanic Cruise on the Straight of Hormuz.' Bobo the Baboon tells the story of a flamboyant baboon politician, who runs in to significant trouble in dealing with his pandemic response. 'A Titanic Cruise on the Straight of Hormuz,' features rats in a cautionary tale of the perils of military adventurism. 
    All three satirical stories will keep you laughing as you discover and enjoy all the inside jokes and parallels to today's politics and policies.
