BUTT UGLY is a smallish green dog with a snaggle-toothed smile and three little hairs sticking up from his butt. He's the runt in a litter of thirteen walloping tail-waggers. The other pups get names like Sparky, Princess and Fang. But everyone calls him BUTT UGLY. It makes him feel puny—inside and out. When the day arrives for new owners to come and choose puppies to take home, Butt Ugly hangs his head and hides in the corner. "Who wants a dog named Butt Ugly?" he mumbles to himself. And sure enough, all the puppies find homes, except Butt Ugly. And just when it looks like he couldn't feel any punier, BUTT UGLY is stuffed in the bottom of a basket and left abandoned on a doorstep in a Ding-Dong-Ditch! Mutts of the world unite! This book is for every creature who has ever felt a little shy, a little alone, or a little butt ugly. And for all the heroes who have opened their homes and their hearts to love them. BUTT UGLY's Ding-Dong-Ditch turns into the happiest day of his life, for him and the marvelous boy who finds him. Butt Ugly strikes a chord with every child who has ever felt different and alone. Butt Ugly touches the heart of anyone who has ever rescued and loved any 2-legged, 4-legged and even 50-legged creature. Butt Ugly celebrates the inner beauty in us all. BUTT UGLY proves that beauty is more than three butt hairs deep! BUTT UGLY is the new beautiful. If you've ever had trouble keeping your three little butt hairs in place, if you've ever practiced smiling in front of the mirror, but can't keep that snaggle-tooth from popping out—this Butt's for you! BUTT UGLY is triple-green. It has a green theme, it's printed on recycled paper, and it also collaborates with Eco-Libris, a "tree-offset" company to replenish the world's forests. For this first edition of Butt Ugly, 1,250 trees will be planted in developing countries. Buy a book, plant a tree. Look for the eco-libris logo on BUTT UGLY and know you are helping to re-GREEN the world.

Three sisters return to their southern hometown after the death of their difficult, demanding mother, in a novel by the author of Baby of the Family. In life, Esther Lovejoy was an intolerable mother. She raised her daughters with an iron fist, browbeat her husband into submission, and insisted they call her Mudear (an abbreviation of Mother Dear). As adults with successful careers, Betty, Emily, and Annie Ruth have scattered across the country to avoid Mudear’s influence. But now it’s time to lay her to rest, and the Lovejoy sisters have returned to Mulberry, Georgia, to pay their last respects. What they discover is that while Mudear may be dead, she is far from gone. With a large dose of compassion and a generous splash of humor, Tina McElroy Ansa serves up a powerful tale of family secrets and the ways our scars make us stronger. “A voice that is fresh and strong and just quirky enough to stand out from the crowd.” —The Boston Sunday Globe “An entertaining read . . . The author, like a good small-town gossip . . . paints a vivid picture of three bright, beautiful and emotionally scarred African-American sisters.” —Los Angeles Times

Work with data like a pro using this guide that breaks down how to organize, apply, and most importantly, understand what you are analyzing in order to become a true data ninja. From the stock market to genomics laboratories, census figures to marketing email blasts, we are awash with data. But as anyone who has ever opened up a spreadsheet packed with seemingly infinite lines of data knows, numbers aren't enough: we need to know how to make those numbers talk. In The Model Thinker, social scientist Scott E. Page shows us the mathematical, statistical, and computational models—from linear regression to random walks and far beyond—that can turn anyone into a genius. At the core of the book is Page's "many-model paradigm," which shows the reader how to apply multiple models to organize the data, leading to wiser choices, more accurate predictions, and more robust designs. The Model Thinker provides a toolkit for business people, students, scientists, pollsters, and bloggers to make them better, clearer thinkers, able to leverage data and information to their advantage.
