We're Nerds for Words

"So the writer who breeds more words than he needs, is making a chore for the reader who reads" ~ Dr. Seuss

Ever wonder what green eggs and ham really taste like? They're yummy. And now everyone can whip up a batch for themselves using this fabulous cookbook. Filled with simple, scrumptious, wacky recipes for such foods as Cat in the Hat Pudding and Moose Juice and Schlopp, this unique cookbook will have the whole family hamming it up in the kitchen.  

Each recipe is accompanied by the original verse that inspired it, and the pages are laminated to protect against getting splatters of Sneetch Salad, Oobleck, and Solla Sollew Stew.

OMG! W8! HIOOC! BRB! Ever wonder what they're talking about? The newest language being formed is the language of texting. Sentences and phrases are now compressed into acronyms and symbol forms. 

This is a pocket-size reference book listing over 1,000 acronyms and symbols used by the mainstream texting public. From the well-known LOL (Laughing Out Loud or Lots Of Love) to the lesser known P2U4URAQTP (Peace To You For You Are A Cutie Pie), this handy guide will have you texting like a pro in no time. TWIWI (That Was Interesting, Wasn't It?)

For anyone who's ever wished to, but had trouble starting, keeping, or finishing a journal or sketchbook comes Wreck This Journal, an illustrated book that features a subversive collection of prompts, asking readers to muster up their best mistake- and mess-making abilities to fill the pages of the book (and destroy them). Acclaimed illustrator Keri Smith encourages journalers to engage in "destructive" acts-poking holes through pages, adding photos and defacing them, painting with coffee, and more-in order to experience the true creative process. Readers discover a new way of art and journal making-and new ways to escape the fear of the blank page and fully engage in the creative process.
