A fascinating look at the British Royal Family as they were perceived in the 1980s. In recent times the British monarchy has become an 'ultimate family' of international superstars, their adventures and personalities transmitted round the globe like episodes in the world's most popular soap opera. The process began with Queen Mary's transformation of the family into symbols of middle-class morality, but accelerated greatly with the televising of Queen Elizabeth II's Coronation and the euphoric sense of a 'new Elizabethan age' about to begin in gloomy post-war Britain. Prince Charles's Investiture in 1969 was the springboard of a major PR campaign to provide royalty with a human face and helped shape the contemporary image of the royal family as both 'special' and 'ordinary'. First published in 1986, this work came at a time of heightened interest in the royals as it followed the establishment of Lady Diana as the 'ultimate dream princess', Diana, and arrived in the wake of Prince Andrew's wedding. John Pearson's fascinating book defines the Royal Family for the 1980s.

Family businesses are vital to the health of a nation’s economy, but distresses such as economic downturns and the Covid-19 pandemic can put them at grave existential risk. Drawing from her dynamic experience working with her family-owned company MPIL Steel Structures Ltd, Priyanka Gupta Zielinski presents a unique manual to help family businesses thrive, even in times of crisis. Central to it is a survival toolkit – featuring a metaphorical multipurpose hat, a flashlight, a superhero cape, a Swiss Army knife and a parachute – which prepares business owners to face any challenge head on.

It’s hard to resist a scavenger hunt. Give kids a list of things to find, and they naturally want to turn it into a game and start checking things off. Add in an outdoor and nature twist, and the game is elevated to a whole new level—and what an amazing opportunity to engage kids and families with nature in a whole new way. The Ultimate Book of Scavenger Hunts will help turn every outdoor outing into a scavenger hunt, with plenty of things for your family to look for, discover, and learn about. Geared towards families with kids ages 4-10, the hunts are geared to just about any location—from city to farm to beach to mountains. The book includes a leveled difficulty rating system so you can find both easy and difficult items within each hunt (1 being easy, 2 medium, 3 hard). Each hunt comes complete with factoids and information about the items on the list, and each item is accompanied by a colorful spot illustration so that the hunter can easily identify what they are looking for.
Are you the only one who cleans in your house? Do you constantly pick up items around the house (that normally aren't yours ) and move them to where they belong? Is it your job to know that everyone's clothes (and everything else everyone needs to walk out the front door) are ready for the next day? Are your family members always asking you where their things are? Most cleaning books will tell you to go it alone, and teach you tricks or shortcuts to make it more "enjoyable" or efficient. They show you a better way to do the job. Team Clean is different. Gone are the days of cleaning alone. It's not all on you anymore Carol Paul will teach you how to create a team made up of every member of your household. You will learn how to get that very team to clean your home for you once a week, all while creating a tradition that will change your family forever. Carol shares her simple step-by-step ways to make it happen, regardless of age, ability, or attitude. You will be amazed that you will finish the whole house in less than an hour without cleaning any other night of the week. She will help you create your own personal family-bonding element (she calls it "the reward"), and show you the life lessons and discipline you will instill in your children as a result. You could very well get back the family you dreamed of when you got married and first had kids
