The good times continue to roll in this next collection of Garfield comic book stories! In this round, we see how the gang beats the heat, learn if Jon can finally stop being late, and if Nermal can set a world record! Also, Pet Force stops by!
This fun-filled collection includes three books in one: Garfield Sits Around the House, Garfield Tips the Scales, and Garfield Loses His Feet. That four-legged fur balloon we affectionately call Garfield always wants more—and he gives as good as he gets in this chunky volume of belly-busting laughs. So whether he's walloping Odie with a paper, pelting Jon with a pie, trying out an all-the-coffee-you-can-drink diet, or sneaking onto an airplane, Garfield provides plenty of thrills and spills for his hapless owner and lots of laughs for his ravenous readers! The GARFIELD FAT CAT 3-PACK series collects the GARFIELD comic-strip compilation books in a new, full-color format. Garfield may have gone through a few changes, but one thing has stayed the same: his enormous appetite for food and fun. So enjoy some super sized laughs with the insatiable cat, because too much fun is never enough!
Garfield's winter shenanigans! ‘Tis the season to be jolly and Garfield, always looking for an opportunity to stuff his face, goes caroling in the hopes that his neighbors will reward him with tasty holiday treats. There's only one problem: Garfield can't sing and therefore no one will give him a crumb! But Nermal and Odie are also out caroling, with greater success, and Garfield knows he has to find a way to get in on their goodies! Also featuring "King Nermal" and "The Amazing Flying Dog."
Just My Type is not just a font book, but a book of stories. About how Helvetica and Comic Sans took over the world. About why Barack Obama opted for Gotham, while Amy Winehouse found her soul in 30s Art Deco. About the great originators of type, from Baskerville to Zapf, or people like Neville Brody who threw out the rulebook, or Margaret Calvert, who invented the motorway signs that are used from Watford Gap to Abu Dhabi. About the pivotal moment when fonts left the world of Letraset and were loaded onto computers ... and typefaces became something we realised we all have an opinion about. As the Sunday Times review put it, the book is 'a kind of Eats, Shoots and Leaves for letters, revealing the extent to which fonts are not only shaped by but also define the world in which we live.' This edition is available with both black and silver covers.
2008 may well be remembered as the year in which gaming became just like any other service in libraries, with librarians implementing gaming initiatives that look very much like those we already offer for books, movies, music, and computers for as varied an audience as other library services are offered.
