Hardback. Condición: Very Good. In the tradition of Goldilocks and Cinderella, a debut artist brings us a space-age '70s retro-style retelling of the classic fable by Aesop. Tortoise and Hare are racing their state-of-the-art (and not-so-state-of-the-art) spaceships to the moon! The story is a humorously told tale of friendly competition and the spirit of persistence. The illustrations have bold graphics, bright colors and patterns inspired by ancient as well as modern art. Tortoise and Hare are best friends, and Tortoise, teased for being super-slow, challenges Hare to race to the moon. Hare buys a spaceship, Tortoise builds one, and off they go! Hare's spaceship is astonishingly fast, while Tortoise's is super slow. But Hare is also easily distracted.will Tortoise's determined persistence finally win out.…

Condición: Fair. Ebenezer Scrooge from Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol investigates a shocking murder--before he becomes the next victim--in this playful mystery in a new series from a New York Times bestselling author. Scrooge considers himself a rational man with a keen sense of deductive reasoning developed from years of business dealings. But that changes one night when he's visited by the ghost of his former boss and friend, Fezziwig, who mysteriously warns him that three more will die, and ultimately Ebenezer himself--if he doesn't get to the bottom of a vast conspiracy. When he wakes the next day, Scrooge discovers that not only is Fezziwig dead, but he's under arrest as all evidence points toward himself: Scrooge's calling card was found in the cold, dead hand of Fezziwig's body, and someone scribbled HUMBUG in blood on the floor nearby. Now, Scrooge must race against the pocket watch to clear his name, protect his interests, and find out who killed his last true friend--before the Humbug Killer strikes again. Joining Scrooge in his adventures is a spunky sidekick named Adelaide, who matches his wits at every turn, plus the Artful Dodger, Fagin, Belle, Pickwick, and even Charles Dickens himself as a reporter dealing in the lurid details of London's alleyway crimes. Full of action and wry humor, The Humbug Murders is a fun take on a classic character--Scrooge as you've never seen him before.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. Over the past twenty years, obesity has risen in the United States to epidemic proportions. Today, over sixty percent of Americans are overweight, and over one in four is obese. This book examines the cultural contradictions that underlie this massive transformation. Oliver's highly readable yet carefully documented book addresses the meaning of obesity in American life. At one level, the book outlines very straightforward issues such as controversies over the sources of obesity, its economic and social consequences, and its prospects for resolution. At another level, the book examines fatism, the last bastion of acceptable discrimination in the United States, particularly as it applies to women. Finally, the book makes a deeper argument about how obesity reflects a serious contradiction in American life. At no other time in human history has food been so easily available and survival so physically un-taxing. But rather than giving us greater freedom, our affluence has disempowered us. Most Americans continue to gain weight and fight a losing struggle to reduce their body sizes, and increasingly, the overweight are derided for their moral failure. As more people become obese, this cultural paradox will grow. In the book's conclusion, Oliver outlines how the contradiction surrounding America's obesity epidemic may be resolved and where the battle lines in the coming fat wars are likely to be drawn. …
