  100 20th-Century Shops is a fascinating insight into the heritage of Britain's changing high street and the diverse architectural styles of the 20th century.

  The book also contains essays by respected writers Elain Harwood, Lynn Pearson, Matthew Whitfield, Kathryn A. Morrison and Bronwen Edwards on the design, development and decline of the high street over the last 100 years within a social and political context. This compelling book provides a glimpse into the wonderful shops that Britain has to offer and is a must-have for all fans of design history, architecture and retail.

  The Chronicle of the African Child is a powerful, emotional journey through the untold realities of growing up in the heart of Africa. Through moving chapters filled with raw honesty and deep compassion, this audiobook uncovers the silent struggles, stolen dreams, and enduring hopes of children born into a world that often forgets them.

  If you believe in the power of change, in the power of truth, and in the precious light of every child’s heart, this audiobook will stay with you long after the last word fades. 
  Listen. Reflect. Act. 
  Because every child matters. Every story matters. And every soul holds the future of a nation.

Pink Flamingos is John Waters at his provocative, disgusting, piety-puncturing best, with the hellish and hilarious trash masterpiece that first made him a household name.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux.
