Ton-Iasg
Gaelic translation of funny, heartwarming French bestseller Poisson-Fesse (Buttfish) about a fish that's different. Deep down he just wants to be like all the other fish. But his adventures take him to the depths of the oceans where he discovers other unusual fish, new friends, happiness and renewed self-confidence. The Gaelic title is Ton-iasg Toinisgeil. The central character is a bright pink fish. In the English version he's called Buttfish because he looks a bit like a butt. Aware he's different, he reluctantly puts up with constant teasing and being the 'butt' of his friends jokes. He desperately wants to fit in, deep down he longs to be like all the other fish. One day he decides to swim to the deepest part of the ocean and explore. Here he discovers he's not alone. There are a host of other unusual fish, including Steven, a fish shaped like a cheese wedge! The two unusual chums quickly develop a close friendship... ... and after many adventures they even become 'guardians of the open seas'. The book ends with our hero being told, that looked at from a different perspective, his 'butt' shape, also makes him look like a heart. It's a funny, heart-warming story that rightly deserves its place at the top of the French children's charts. Its message of inclusion and celebration of difference might be universal, but here they are explored in a truly endearing story. Following its success in France the book is due to be published in at least 16 other countries.

Care and Feeding
An Instant New York Times Bestseller!A candid, funny, and occasionally devastating culinary memoir of a woman making her way through the food world, navigating addiction, a cultural reckoning, and an unexpected tragedyIn this moving, hilarious, and insightful bestselling memoir, Laurie Woolever traces her path from a small-town childhood to working within the high-stakes celebrity chef culture at revered restaurants and food publications, alternately bolstered and overshadowed by two of the most powerful men in the business. But there’s more to the story than the two bold-faced names on her resume: Mario Batali and Anthony Bourdain. Behind the scenes, Laurie’s life is frequently chaotic, a high-functioning addict’s often pleasurable buffet of bad decisions at which she frequently overstays her welcome. Acerbic and wryly self-deprecating, Laurie attempts to carve her own space as a woman in this world that is by turns toxic and intoxicating. Laurie seeks to try it all—from a seedy Atlantic City strip club to the Park Hyatt Tokyo, from a hippie vegetarian co-op to the legendary El Bulli—while balancing her consuming work with her sometimes ambivalent relationship to marriage and motherhood. As the food world careens toward an overdue reckoning and Laurie’s mentors face their own high-profile descents, she is confronted with the questions of where she belongs in a story of both workplace toxicity and personal recovery, and how to hold on to the parts of her life’s work that she truly values: care and feeding. This is a story of keeping it together, until several successive implosions—careers, marriages, reputations, lives—show that control is an illusion. An Unflinching Addiction Memoir: A raw and darkly funny account of binge drinking, bad decisions, and the slow journey toward sobriety in an industry that runs on excess. Women in the Culinary World: A candid exploration of what it takes to carve out a space as a woman in kitchen culture. A Cultural Reckoning: Witness the food world’s overdue reckoning from the inside, as high-profile figures face their own descents and hard questions must be answered.

Get on the Job and Organize
The leader of the Starbucks and Tesla union movements shares stories from the front lines to help us organize our own workplaces and “better understand the aims and goals for a resurgent trade union movement and how workers all over the country can join in solidarity with it” (Senator Bernie Sanders).Get on the Job and Organize is a compelling, stirring narrative of the Starbucks and Tesla unionization efforts, telling the broader story of the new, nationwide labor movement unfolding in our era of political and social unrest. As one of the exciting new faces of the American Labor Movement, Jaz Brisack argues that while workers often organize when their place of work is toxic, it’s equally important to organize when you love your job. Here, Brisack delivers practical advice on how workers can and should stand up for their rights, especially when electoral politics seem to have failed us. With an accessible tone, a deep love of labor history, and profound empathy, Brisack puts recent efforts into the context of Americans’ long tradition of organizing. In the process, they show us that we, too, can improve our workplaces, from how to educate ourselves and our colleagues, to what backlash to expect and how to fight it, to what victory looks like even if the union doesn’t necessarily win. A “fascinating insider account” (Publishers Weekly), richly detailed, and with never-before-reported scenes, Get on the Job and Organize is a bold and galvanizing call to fight for the workplaces we deserve.

Zokology
Like it or not, playing golf will pull you inside out and expose your soul - and there''s no place to hide. Zokology isn''t just a book about golf. It''s about learning to think when the way you''ve always thought is no longer working. And for Dick Zokol, that meant learning how to navigate the noise in his head and figuring out how to survive on the PGA Tour. Zokol''s Cinderella story began when he ''walked on'' the Brigham Young University golf team. Four years later, he captained BYU to victory in the NCAA Championship. Later that summer he won the Canadian Amateur and got through the notorious PGA Tour Q-School. But the fairy tale ended and Zokol struggled as a rookie on the PGA tour. Dealing with intense anxiety, expectations, and feeling he didn''t belong, he battled the loneliness of life on the road. He was soon desperately searching for something that would help him find solid ground. From here, Zokol opens up about the real stuff - the mental and emotional toil that defined his 22 years on the PGA Tour. His two wins on the PGA Tour, both in 1992 were evidence his path had taken hold. In his career, Zokol played over 450 Tour events and learned success wasn''t about the golf swing - success and failure are about your mind. Employing a thought-protocol can get you through those difficult situations. Zokology is raw, real, and sometimes uncomfortable. It''s a guide for when you get off track - on the course or just in your own mind.
Falling Fast
A unique look at emophilia--the tendency to fall in love fast, easily, and often--and the profound impact it has on our lives and the lives of those around us. Why do some people fall in love in an instant--again and again--while others take months or even year? cross cultures, the concept of "love at first sight" has captivated us across recorded history. We all seem to know at least one hopeless romantic who falls quickly and easily, and while it's easy to dismiss this, only recently have we begun to study it from a psychological standpoint. In this book, social and personality psychologist Daniel N. Jones explores the fascinating science behind the tendency to fall in love fast, easily, and often. This groundbreaking book introduces emophilia--a powerful but often overlooked personality trait that influences how we connect, commit, and sometimes crash in our romantic lives. It draws upon cutting-edge research to explore topics like why some people are wired for whirlwind romances, risks behind what is known as "emotional promiscuity"--including infidelity and toxic partners--and impacts on emotional wellbeing. With its fresh lens on love, intimacy, and the psychology of connection, this insightful, provocative, and deeply human book, offers a refined understanding of people who fall in love quickly and deeply--and sometimes out of love just as fast.
