Sinopse

Is your dog a loyal companion but also a lazy one? Does he love lounging on the sofa and prefer cozy walks? Perhaps he's carrying a few extra pounds or even suffers from minor pains? Then grab this guide and get your four-legged friend back in top shape!
A dog is now a natural part of the family, and as an owner, you want your furry friend to have a long, pleasant, and pain-free life with you. However, with breeding-related malpositions, stress from daily life, and insufficient exercise, targeted dog sports have become increasingly important to avoid weight gain, poor posture, lack of fitness, and resulting health or behavioral issues. The good news is: it doesn't have to be a treadmill torture, but can actually be a lot of fun, and this book shows you how! You will first learn everything important about anatomy, muscle systems, and training fundamentals, and discover how muscle, endurance, and agility training work for dogs. Then, you will find a variety of precisely guided exercises to train specific skills, improve flexibility, strength, stamina, and coordination, and really challenge your dog.
Your furry friend still isn't a top athlete? No worries! The exercises are suitable for all fitness levels, from the lazy beginner to the advanced dog athlete, so you can perfectly adjust the training to meet your dog's needs.

There are parts of herself that parenthood won't let her avoid. 
 
Unsentimental and untamed, The Sea in the Metro is an unflinching excavation of modern womanhood that marks the thrilling return of an incredible talent in Australian literature.

Tutankhamen's Curse - The Legend...

John Harpoon

The discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb in 1922 remains one of the most significant archaeological events in history, but it also brought with it a mysterious and terrifying legend—the Curse of the Pharaoh. For centuries, the tomb of the young Egyptian king, who ruled during the 18th dynasty, lay hidden beneath the sands of the Valley of the Kings. It wasn’t until British archaeologist Howard Carter and his financial backer, Lord Carnarvon, unearthed the tomb that the world was introduced to the wonder and mystique surrounding King Tutankhamen’s final resting place. 
Tutankhamen, who ascended to the throne as a child, died young under uncertain circumstances, leaving behind a legacy that has fascinated historians, archaeologists, and the public alike. His tomb, filled with precious artifacts, murals, and the famous golden mask, was unlike anything ever discovered in ancient Egyptian tombs. Yet, the treasures would be overshadowed by an eerie series of deaths, leading many to believe in a curse linked to the tomb. 
The first death tied to the curse was that of Lord Carnarvon, who financed the excavation. His sudden death just months after entering the tomb in 1923 shocked the world, and rumors of a deadly curse spread rapidly. Over the next few years, several individuals connected to the tomb’s discovery met untimely and mysterious deaths, fueling the belief that the wrath of Tutankhamen had been unleashed upon those who dared to disturb his resting place.

Here Comes the Fun - A Journey...

Ben Aitken

'What Aitken writes about fun is worth reading' Mail on Sunday
'Irresistible' Christopher Somerville, author of The January Man and Walking the Bones of Britain
'A great book' Simon Rimmer, Sunday Brunch
'Aitken's writing is always a delight' Madeleine Bunting, author of The Seaside



Are you getting enough? Bestselling travel writer Ben Aitken wasn't.


Increasingly flat and decreasingly zen, Ben gave boredom the boot and stress the cold shoulder by embarking on a whimsical journey into the serious business of having a laugh.


He did a pilgrimage in Spain, a summer camp in Kent, and a cruise of the Baltic with 2,000 grannies. And when he wasn't on the road, he searched for merriment at home: by giving bridge a go, volunteering a chance, and gardening a crack of the whip.


By incorporating the thoughts of key thinkers and boffins, Here Comes the Fun offers a satisfying balance of the playful and the profound, the serious and the silly, the daft and the deep.

No Less Strange or Wonderful -...

A. Kendra Greene

“Revelatory. … Prepare yourself to be dazzled.”—Ben Fountain, author of Devil Makes Three 
  
Exploding sharks, trees riding bicycles, a Hollywood-esque balloon dress, a giant sloth in costume, a stolen woodpecker, and a sentient bag of wasps—and remember: this is nonfiction.  
  
Celebrated author and artist A. Kendra Greene’s No Less Strange or Wonderful is a brilliant and generous meditation—on the complex wonder of being alive, on how to pay attention to even the tiniest (sometimes strangest) details that glitter with insight, whimsy, and deep humanity, if only we’d really look. 
  
In twenty-six sparkling essays, Greene is trying to make sense—of anything, really—but especially the things that matter most in life: love, connection, death, grief, the universe, meaning, nothingness, and everythingness. Through a series of encounters with strangers, children, and animals, the wild merges with the domestic; the everyday meets the sublime. Each essay returns readers to our smallest moments and our largest ones in a book that makes us realize—through its exuberant language, its playful curation, and its delightful associative leapfrogging—that they are, in fact, one in the same.
