The Camel Who Had The Hump Board Book
A board book edition of this uplifting and empowering tale about finding new ways to navigate big feelings, from the bestselling creators of The Lion Inside.
As a shimmering sun lit the desert at dawn,
A clumping of camels awoke with a yawn.
"GOOD MORRRRNING!" sang one,
"YOO-HOO! Rise and shine!"
"I will!" called another. "Today is DIVINNNNNNE!"
But not everyone has woken up in a good mood: Cuthbert the camel is having a bit of a bad morning. He's hot, he's tired and he certainly WON'T be walking to the oasis today! There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that will get him out of his grump. Or is there?
When Cuthbert makes a new friend, he discovers that even if things get off on the wrong hoof, we're all just one smile away from a happy rest-of-day.
A laugh-out-loud tale of how choosing fun can turn a grumpy, humpy start into a happy ending. This spectacularly illustrated rhyming tale from the award-winning, bestselling creators of The Lion Inside and The Koala Who Could is the perfect read for anyone who's ever had The Hump.
Bandidos
This is the story of the Bandidos Motorcycle Club, penned by their National Presidente, Tony Vartiainen of Australasia and is a look at how the club started through to the future. It begins with the club's inception, featuring original members from over 40 years sharing their first-hand experiences. The story progresses to the tragic day at Milperra, which resulted in the deaths of seven individuals and led to one of Australia's longest-running trials. It discusses how the members dealt with the trial and the tragic death of the President Snotty in Parklea jail. With rare photographs of the club and its members, this book details how the organisation endured its early challenges, particularly during the trials following Milperra. It illustrates their resilience as they rebuilt the club, persevering through adversity—from murdered presidents to attacks on their clubhouses. Today, they continue to fight for their right to ride together, maintaining an unbroken brotherhood founded on love, loyalty, and respect. Everything written in this book is authorised by the club and its Presidente Tony Vartiainen.

THE VOICE IN MY HEAD IS GOD
In his most personal work yet, Grammy Award–winning rapper 2 Chainz shares the spiritual journey behind his success, offering a raw, reflective, and deeply motivational meditation on the inner voice that’s guided him his whole life: God. Before he was 2 Chainz, he was Tauheed Epps—an only child growing up in College Park, Georgia, raised by a single mother while his father served time in prison. Though he excelled in school and earned a basketball scholarship, the streets were never far behind, and by fifteen, he had been arrested and was hustling to survive. He faced doubt and self-destruction, but even then, something told him there had to be more. In THE VOICE IN MY HEAD IS GOD, 2 Chainz tells the story of how he walked away from the trap and found his purpose: not by fame or fear, but by faith. With his unmistakable voice and unflinching honesty, he reflects on the hardest moments of his life and the quiet revelations that shaped him. From the spiritual alarms he couldn’t ignore to the mentors who showed up at the right time, he explores how his music and verses poured out when he finally listened to the voice that had been there all along. From hanging with Lil Wayne to getting early help from Ludacris, 2 Chainz brings us into the defining moments of his life and career while delivering a powerful message about discipline, divine timing, and self-belief. Along the way, he offers more than a memoir. He shares a way of thinking, of trusting yourself, and of listening to the voice that never steers you wrong. Lyrical, grounded, and fiercely motivational THE VOICE IN MY HEAD IS GOD is part blueprint and all heart.

Arbiters of Style
From the discerning editors of FREDERIC and the creative minds at Schumacher, a beautifully photographed and written exploration of an exciting new movement in French interior design and architecture, featuring visionary talentsSomething extraordinary is happening in French interior design. Like the cinematic sea change that gave us the New Wave, the next generation of designers and architects is breaking with the past to forge something entirely fresh - a movement that feels as significant as it is seductive, as trailblazing as it is sensually refined. From rising stars like Hugo Toro and Marine Bonnefoy to established names like Jacques Grange and Jean-Louis Deniot, the twenty-one French designers in Arbiters of Style are leading a bold new charge in the decorative arts: fluent in architecture, but fluent in feeling, too; refreshingly unafraid of color; obsessed with sculptural form; and confident enough to let a single perfect gesture speak volumes. They are proving that the most profound luxury isn’t about having more - it's about knowing exactly what to leave out. Lushly illustrated with nearly 200 color photographs, this stunning survey showcases inspiring interiors in private residences across France, from Paris and Ormesson-sur-Marne to far-flung holiday locales such as Cap Ferret, the Pyrenees, Biarritz, Île de Ré, and Saint-Tropez. This is more than a snapshot of French style - it is elegance and sophistication reimagined by interior designers and architects who think like artists and artists who understand structure, it is a cadre of talent rewriting the rules. In an era when design feels caught between maximalist excess and beige-washed banality, these spaces represent an aesthetic reawakening, a burst of creativity that seems light-years ahead of everything else, reminding us that true style isn’t about following rules - it’s about having the vision to shatter them beautifully.
The Poisoner
A gripping account of the murders committed by Dr William Palmer, the 'Prince of Poisoners', and his dramatic trial in 1855. In 1856, a baying crowd of over 30,000 people gathered outside Stafford prison to watch the execution of a village doctor from Staffordshire. One of the last people to be publicly hanged, 'the greatest villain who ever stood trial at the Old Bailey,' as Charles Dickens described him, Dr William Palmer was convicted in 1855 of murdering his best friend, but was suspected of poisoning more than a dozen other people, including his wife, children, brother and mother-in-law - cashing in on their life insurance to fund his crippling gambling habit. Highlighting Palmer's particularly gruesome penchant for strychnine, his trial made news across Europe; he was a new kind of murderer - respectable, middle class, personable, and consequently more terrifying - and he became Britain's most infamous figure until the emergence of Jack the Ripper. The first widely available account of one of the most notorious, yet lesser-known, mass-murderers in British history, The Poisoner takes a fresh look at Palmer's life and disputed crimes, ultimately asking 'just how evil was this man?' With previously undiscovered letters from Palmer and new forensic examination of his victims, Stephen Bates presents not only an astonishing and controversial revision of Palmer's entire story, but takes us into the very psyche of a killer.

The Lady of the Mine
The extraordinary new novel by the author of Untraceable. A sealed shaft in a Donbas coal mine contains unimaginable horror: layer upon layer of human bodies, the victims of Red and White terror during the Revolution, of Stalin’s purges, of the Einsatzgruppen in the Holocaust. Around this infamous pit, in a polluted region convulsed once again by war and cruelty when Russia invades Ukraine, the fates of four characters intertwine: a mysterious and powerful laundress whose dedication to cleaning the filth created by the mine attracts the suspicion of the secret police; her innocent daughter Zhanna, left alone by her mother’s death; a brutal Russian militia man, who targets Zhanna; and his boss, a former KGB man turned ruthless servant of Putin. The voice of The Engineer, a murdered Jew who designed and constructed the mine, is a witness to the bloody history of the region and the terrible secret at its heart. A haunting, lyrical meditation on the legacy of dictatorship and atrocity.
