DOWNLOAD EBOOKBIKERS are ANIMALS 4 - Working and Riding by author/cartoonist Paul Jamiol is the 4th in a series of children's books that bring young readers into a world of motorcycle-riding animals. In Jamiol's first two books, he introduced his cartoon menagerie on "cool" motorcycles, showing children and parents that those involved in motorcycling are intelligent and caring. In his third, the characters from BAA1 go on a riding adventure. Now, Jamiol has created 16 new, young characters who are the sons, daughters, grandkids, nieces, nephews and siblings of his adult characters. These engaging youngsters proudly introduce their adults and explain about their occupations, and then each goes riding with his/her adult, where it's all about bonding and having fun. In what has become his trademark style of vivid illustrations and attention to detail, Jamiol creates a stunning world for the young reader, again bringing a positive message along for the ride. Paul Jamiol, an avid motorcyclist, has been cartooning and illustrating for over 40 years and has been recognized for his work locally, nationally and internationally. His cartoons and illustrations have been featured in newspapers, in magazines and on the worldwide web.

His first two books introduced 25 characters; his 3rd takes them on an adventure. His fourth and latest introduces 16 new younger animals into the mix. His intention is to spark something in young readers that will get them excited about motorcycles. He also hopes to shake, early on, the adult refrain that "bikers are animals."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBIKERS are ANIMALS 3 - On the Road by Paul Jamiol is the third in a series of children's books that brings youngsters into a world of cartoon animals who love to ride their motorcycles and be with their friends. In his first two books, the author introduced his cartoon animals on "cool" motorcycles to show children and their parents that those involved in motorcycling are intelligent and caring. In his third book, using detailed and vibrant illustrations, Jamiol takes children even further into his cartoon world with a riding adventure that is fun and which has his menagerie of riding critters planning and working together to make their ride possible. Their journey takes them from their homes and into the city, then they head out of the city and hit the open road for a ride to the mountains. Their destination is a cabin on a lake, courtesy of one of their riding buddies, for an overnight stay. As with an actual motorcycle ride, there will be different roads traveled and stops along the way. This adventure will expand a child's imagination with a unique vision of a group of critters doing what they love to do most - ride their motorcycles with their friends. A child will feel that he or she is welcome to ride along with these critters, and will also learn that working together, respect and friendship are paramount with this cast of characters. This is not just a book for kids in families with motorcycles. It's for young ones everywhere who gaze at a passing rider on a motorcycle and are curious about what this "thing" rolling past is all about. Jamiol's characters run the gamut of the animal world as do their choices of motorcycles. They are young and old, and male and female. They like each other, respect each other, and have fun doing things together but are not afraid to do things on their own. Their independence stands out even in a large group. With Bikers are Animals 3 - On the Road, the message is clear... doing things together with friends, respecting who they are and not what they are, and riding down a road unafraid, are good things. For the child to get that message through a motorcycle ride that's totally fun, reinforces this message. The author encourages parents to join their kids on this ride and meet the characters. This is a reading adventure parents and children can share together, over and over again.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book is the first to compare the shared cultural tenets of ancient warbands and outlaw biker gangs. It argues that the values of hyper-masculinity can be traced from the former into the contemporary environment of the latter: codes of honour, loyalty and bravery have prioritised small groups of males over women and other men, creating a history of hyper-masculinity that shows little sign of stopping. Indeed, Outlaw Bikers and Ancient Warbands: Hyper-Masculinity and Cultural Continuity argues that such hyper-masculine culture can be found in many male groups such as the police, military and sports, and that if we want to understand hyper-masculinity and face it as a society then we need to recognize that outlaw bikers are a reflection of behavior that has a very long tradition. This pioneering work explores these issues from ancient times and into the future.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDiscover the nationally bestselling, true story of a life-changing friendship between a man and his rescue cat, Nala, as they adventure together on a bike journey around the world -- from the Instagram phenomenon @1bike1world. When 30-year-old Dean Nicholson set off from Scotland to cycle around the world, his aim was to learn as much as he could about our troubled planet. But he hadn't bargained on the lessons he'd learn from his unlikely companion. Three months after leaving home, on a remote road in the mountains between Montenegro and Bosnia, he came across an abandoned kitten. Something about the piercing eyes and plaintive meowing of the bedraggled little cat proved irresistible. He couldn't leave her to her fate, so he put her on his bike and then, with the help of local vets, nursed her back to health. Soon on his travels with the cat he named Nala, they forged an unbreakable bond -- both curious, independent, resilient and adventurous. The video of how they met has had 20 million views and their Instagram has grown to almost 750k followers -- and still counting! Experiencing the kindness of strangers, visiting refugee camps, rescuing animals through Europe and Asia, Dean and Nala have already learned that the unexpected can be pretty amazing. Together with Garry Jenkins, writer with James Bowen of the bestselling A Street Cat Named Bob, Dean shares the extraordinary tale of his and Nala's inspiring and heart-warming adventure together.
