Scott Adams

Publisher: Andrews McMeel Publishing, LLC

Summary

Just when you thought it couldn’t get worse, here come a thieving Idea Squirrel, a Carbicle, and plans for making plans in the thirty-third Dilbert collection. 
 
Anyone who works in a fabric-covered box can relate to Dilbert. Since 1989, Dilbert has been the touchstone of office humor for people all over the world. As long as there are corrupt businesses, inept bosses and downright loathsome co-workers, there is plenty to chuckle at. Convinced your co-worker is a demon? That your boss is incompetent? That your dog is out to get you? Dilbert believes you, and this book proves it. 
 
“Once every decade, America is gifted with an angst-ridden anti-hero, a Nietzschean nebbish, an us-against-the-universe everyperson around whom our insecurities collect like iron shavings to a magnet. Charlie Chaplin. Dagwood Bumstead. Charlie Brown. Cathy. Now, Dilbert.” —The Miami Herald

A Visit to Monroe - A Lovely...

Duhane Williams

 A charming tale of the times when mom and dad stand on different sides of the same opinion – their child’s happiness 
Explaining to your child that pops and moms lead separate lives of their own and sometimes have a bone to pick up with each other can be a tough challenge! 
It gets even trickier when your young one starts to wonder why pops is not getting along with grandpa or his borthers. 
Our main character Theo is a tween like everyone else – he is bored out of his mind at home and wants some adventure to shake up his monotonous school days. It’s when his parents decide to visit the castle of Monroe do things become a bit shaky. 
“A Visit to Monroe” tells the story of the backstage life parents often hide from their children and the consequences when our secrets come to light. Though thin on the outside, this small tale of ordinary life teaches youngsters how to act according to their family virtues while still following their dreams and views on life. 
A prayer on every page and invaluable life lessons throughout, you and your child will be equally enriched as you read him or her to sleep. 
At times, we lack the basics for parenthood and so resort to fairytales, stories, and even professional help. Having one of these books by your side when a lesson must be taught will aid you when your own words fail you.

Yuge! - 30 Years of Doonesbury...

G. B. Trudeau

The New York Times–bestselling comic strip collection that proves “how Doonesbury predicted Donald Trump’s presidential run twenty-nine years ago” (The Washington Post).

He tried to warn us. Ever since the release of the first Trump-for-President trial balloon in 1987, Doonesbury’s Garry Trudeau has tirelessly tracked and highlighted the unsavory career of the most unqualified candidate to ever aspire to the White House. It’s all there—the hilarious narcissism, the schoolyard bullying, the loathsome misogyny, the breathtaking ignorance; and a good portion of the Doonesbury cast has been tangled up in it. Join Duke, Honey, Earl, J. J., Mike, Mark, Roland, Boopsie, B. D., Sal, Alice, Elmont, Sid, Zonker, Sam, Bernie, Rev. Sloan, and even the Red Rascal as they cross storylines with the big, orange airhorn who’s giving the GOP such fits.

Garry Trudeau is the “sleazeball” “third-rate talent” who draws the “overrated” comic strip Doonesbury, which “very few people read.” He lives in New York City with his wife Jane Pauley, who “has far more talent than he has.”

“Why so surprised, America? Doonesbury has been preparing us for President Trump since 1987.” —USA Today

“Trump and ‘Doonesbury’: The Comic Gift That Keeps on Giving.” —The New York Times

“If anybody thinks Trump can do a presidential pivot and change his personality Yuge! should be required reading.” —The Daily Kos

“[Trudeau is] practically the court artist of Castle Trump, and no one can beat him (not even Trump, whose capacity for self-parody can’t be overstated).” —Cory Doctorow, Boing Boing

The Real Hergé - The Inspiration...

Sian Lye

“If you are looking to understand a bit more about the circumstances that inspired The Adventures of Tintin—this book will provide a good snapshot.” —The BookBuff Review 
 
Hergé created only twenty-four Tintin books which have been translated into more than seventy languages and sold 230 million copies worldwide. 
 
The Real Hergé: The Inspiration Behind Tintin takes an in-depth look at the man behind the cultural phenomenon and the history that helped shape these books. 
 
As well as focusing on the controversies that engulfed Hergé, this biography will also look at his personal life, as well as the relationships and experiences that influenced him. 
 
“Tintin is more famous now than when Hergé was actually writing and illustrating his adventures. Sian Mye’s book is another in the excellent series about the real lives of our most famous authors, and is well worth a look. Brilliant!” —Books Monthly 
 
“It is certainly possible to enjoy the Tintin books without knowing Hergé. But they are more interesting after learning about this complex, sometimes frustrating, man. We can learn from him, even if we learn from his mistakes.” —Rose City Reader
