  LOUIE! YOU HAVE TO GET YOUR BROTHER. SOMEONE IS BREAKING ALL THE GAMES IN THE ARCADE!  
  Louie leaped up from his chair when he saw the desperate text from his non-Superhero friend Elliot and immediately turned to his Superhero brother Charlie for help:  
  “Charlie, you have to get down to the arcade right now! Someone is breaking all the machines. None of us will be able to play this weekend for Elliot's birthday!"  
  Charlie shrugged. “No one cares about that. Besides, I’m really tired. Good Superheroes always get their rest before fighting crime. Someone else will take care of it”.  
  Louie was shocked at his brother's words as they kept echoing in his mind: SOMEONE ELSE WILL TAKE CARE OF IT... 
  WHO is going to take care of it? All the other Superheroes at school are too lazy to do anything about it!  
  If his brother wasn't going to stand up against evil, and neither were any of the other Superheroes, he could as well become a hero and save the arcade and Elliot´s birthday... Right?  
  Follow Louie, an ordinary boy, on his brave journey as he struggles to become a real hero and fight evil and restore justice. In this heart-warming, fun, and heroic adventure, you will learn that believing in yourself and helping others are much more important than having real super powers. 
  Louie´s Super Adventure: A Story about the Power of a Little Superhero Louie; Adventure Book for 5-16 years old Boys and Girls is an exciting audiobook you will love to hear again and again!

  Great Sex After 50! - And Other...

  A collection of single panel comics poking fun at the aging process, from a syndicated American cartoonist. “Where there is stress, or receding hairlines and liver spots, there is humor.” —John McPherson Be it the ritual hazing of new residents at Spring Meadow Retirement Center that requires retirees to drink twenty-five shots of prune juice, or the oxymoronic humor involved in the publication of the “1st Annual Swimsuit Edition of Aging Today,” this collection of John McPherson’s cartoons finds humor in life’s most everyday act—namely, aging. Octogenarians, centenarians—even those younger and in between—all agree, John McPherson is a comic master when it comes to creating humor out of getting older. Culling more than 100 aging-specific black-and-white and full-color panels from McPherson's Close to Home cartoon panel and featuring a zany cast of malpracticing medics, denture-less dentists, and cynical civil servants, this humorous compendium is the ultimate ode to being over the hill.

  Bowie - An Illustrated Life

  “An entertaining and informative glimpse of Bowie’s public and private life, music and disappearance from this earth.” —Shelf Media Group   David Bowie was a master of artifice and reinvention. In that same spirit, illustrator María Hesse and writer Fran Ruiz have created a vivid retelling of the life of David Robert Jones, from his working-class childhood to glam rock success to superstardom, concluding with the final recording sessions after his cancer diagnosis.   Narrated from the rock star’s point of view, Bowie colorfully renders both the personal and the professional turning points in a life marked by evolution and innovation. We see Bowie facing the sorrow of his brother’s mental illness, kicking a cocaine habit while other musicians succumbed to deadly overdoses, contending with a tumultuous love life, and radiating joy as a father. Along the way, he describes how he shattered the boundaries of song and society with a counterculture cast that included Iggy Pop, Brian Eno, and Freddie Mercury, as well as his own creations, Ziggy Stardust and the Thin White Duke.   Evocatively illustrated from start to finish, Bowie is a stellar tribute to an inimitable star.  “While Bowie portrayed many larger-than-life characters in his music, this book attempts to turn Bowie himself into a similarly superhuman character, adding a few extra dashes of magic, wonder and awe into his already stunning life as an artist.” —Paste  “Beautifully illustrated . . . Not a ‘graphic biography’ but something more imaginative.” —Shepherd Express  “The art reflects a man consumed with himself as an evolving art project, at once self-absorbed and self-sacrificing, cooly aesthetic and curiously, lovably human.” —Publishers Weekly
