Book excerpt: For young readers comfortable reading longer books. Kids 8 - 12 years old. Magali: a shy French marmot who can't resist her funny mountain mates and their crazy, nocturnal, sports adventures! A commotion came from the queue. The weasel team was pushing the squirrel team. The squirrel team was pushing back. The biggest weasel pointed at the squirrels. 'Those are our blackberries! You stole them from us!' The foxes in the queue recognised the squirrels. 'Yes! You stole from us too! You ambushed us and got our blueberries!' A team of rabbits further in the queue shouted at the squirrels. 'Cheaters! You're playing with stolen goods! You stole our raspberries, too!' The dirty, grey squirrel team looked left and right as all the forest animals started pointing and yelling. 'Thieves! Thieves!' 'Disqualify them!' 'Cheaters!' Magali and her mates (Mishka, Henri Le Hare, F-F-Foxy, Little Foxy, Puppy Bébé and Chamois Luc), also furious with the squirrels, shouted, 'You're going down!' Oh, dear. Is Mr Woodpecker, the referee, going to sort this out? This is paintball with fruit being used as ammunition, and the sneaky squirrel team are playing with stolen ammunition! A funny middle-grade series about trusting instinct, forging friendships, and learning independence. The books have British spelling. For ages 8-12 yrs. Set in La Plagne, Savoie, France Each book can be read as an individual book or as part of the Dude Series. The series is available in English, French, Spanish, plus bilingual versions (English / français) (English / español). Question for the Author How did you come up with the character of Magali? 'You know, I really love the French Alps, and looking at all the animals that live in the mountains. I'm Australian, so I had never seen a marmot before moving to France. I worked one summer, for a kids' summer camp, and part of my job was to take the children out on walks. We would go looking for marmots, all of us being very quiet, secretly sneaking up to the holes in the ground, where the entrances to the marmot burrows were. Of course, we would make too much noise and the marmots would disappear into their underground tunnels, but sometimes we were lucky and able to take photos. I think their underground homes took over my imagination, and before you knew it, I had a whole chapter book in my head, with Magali as the principal character!'

Book excerpt: For 8 - 12 years. Magali could not have predicted who would be her number one opponent in the Paintball Competition. Never in a million years! Ping! Splat! 'You're out! Get off the field, Loser!' Magali is turning into a power-hungry fruit-flinger! She's just flung a fat strawberry at the boar, and got him. Now, for the dirty squirrels. There's no way she and her mates can let them win. Her team always wins every sports competition. Tonight is going to be no different. But... they hadn't planned on the surprise team of the night; the Mini Tree Trunks. Those dudes are so well-camouflaged that nobody notices them amongst all the crazy; charging animals, flying fruit, splattered juice, and hovering woodpeckers. It's madness on the playing field, and Magali and her best mate, Mishka, must push through and get to the winner's flag first. Dude, this is paintball, with fruit being used for ammunition. It's flying fruit-salad-in-the-forest chaos! Middle Grade. For ages 8-12 yrs. The adventures of Magali: a cautious adrenalin addict! Young readers will enjoy this fantasy adventure book, set in the French Alps. There are animals of all sizes; foxes, boar, deer, rabbits, weasels, hedgehogs, owls, chamois, ibex, you name it, running around playing paintball while Big People are tucked up in their chalets! Each book can be read as an individual book or as part of the Dude Series (recommended). The books have British spelling.

Book excerpt: For young readers comfortable reading longer books. Kids 8 - 12 years old. Magali: a shy French marmot who can't resist her funny mountain mates and their crazy, nocturnal, sports adventures! 'Uhm. I need to go out,' said the marmot. The adult marmots whipped their heads around to look at Magali. 'Now? Where?' Magali's papa said. 'The Green Lake.' 'What for?' 'Wakeboarding.' 'Wakeboarding? What's wakeboarding?' 'Uhm. I'm not sure. That's why I have to go. To see.' Magali's mother and father shared a worried glance. Magali's mother sighed. 'Do you think that's a good idea, Magali?' Magali's father put his paw on his wife's arm. 'No. If Magali wants to go out at night to do sports, we said we would allow it.' He looked at his daughter. 'Are there going to be eagles, foxes, and wolves there, Magali?' Magali's voice rose high and squeaky. 'There is a ''No Eating Other Animals At Night'' sports rule! I've told you before!' Actually, the eagles, foxes, and wolves are the least of Magali's concerns. She's got a new problem. She's discovered a another sport, apart from the wakeboarding! This new sport has a group of new friends, separate to her mountain gang (Mishka, Henri Le Hare, F-F-Foxy, Little Foxy, Puppy Bébé and Chamois Luc). Now she has two fun sports to do, and two fun sets of sets of friends to hang out with. But, she's exhausted. She can't keep up. Something has to give! The little marmot has a hard decision to make!

Magali looked at Mishka. 'Did you hear that?' 'Psssssssssssssst!' The voice called again. Higher up the mountain, four fox ears poked out of the long grass. 'Psssssssssssssst! Come on, Man! Come over!' F-F-Foxy's head popped up. Then Little Foxy's head popped up. 'It's us! Come!' F-F-Foxy waved. The little marmot looked up at the sun. She said to the fox, 'It's daytime.' 'We're not going to eat you!' F-F-Foxy called. Little Foxy's tongue rolled out the side of his mouth as he stared at Magali's chubby body. 'But maybe we will!' F-F-Foxy smacked his brother's head… Pow! Little Foxy's tongue flung over to the other side of his mouth. F-F-Foxy waved to Magali and Mishka, who were still crouching behind their rock. 'Come!' The marmot looked to the sun again. F-F-Foxy stood up straight and said, 'Okay. We'll come to you. We are not going to eat you. Promise. This is a sports thing.'

Book excerpt: Attention, guys of America: It's time to get off the couch, turn off the PlayStation, and set down your beer (just kidding—never set down your beer). Your days of freedom are numbered. Every guy owes it to himself to do something audacious, ostentatious, hilarious, or just plain fun before it's too late. The time is now for the kinds of things that will be decidedly against the rules after you "settle down." Die Happy is here to help you create the kind of stories you'll be telling for the rest of your life. Stories about things like: · How you spent your graduation cash: You start at Oktoberfest in Munich and wake up on a Thai beach (which is totally what your Aunt Edith had in mind). From Fantasy Fest to La Tomatina, here's a breakdown of the wildest parties and the craziest worldwide destinations. · The best places to, ahem, explore other cultures (or whatever): Corfu's Pink Palace. Ireland's pubs. Amsterdam's Red Light District. Ibiza. Plus plenty of other fascinating events and locales, many of which also happen to serve booze. · Getting a job (don't worry, not a real job): Jet Ski guy. Cruise ship bartender. Casino dealer. Lifeguard. Roadie. Where and how to earn the money to subsidize your fun, usually in some exotic location full of very friendly women. At once a "How To," a "To Do," and a "We Did," Die Happy contains all the ideas, checklists, and insanely funny true stories you'll need to help you have as much fun as possible—while you still can.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating book is the first volume in a projected cultural history of the United States, from the earliest English settlements to our own time. It is a history of American folkways as they have changed through time, and it argues a thesis about the importance for the United States of having been British in its cultural origins. While most people in the United States today have no British ancestors, they have assimilated regional cultures which were created by British colonists, even while preserving ethnic identities at the same time. In this sense, nearly all Americans are "Albion's Seed," no matter what their ethnicity may be. The concluding section of this remarkable book explores the ways that regional cultures have continued to dominate national politics from 1789 to 1988, and still help to shape attitudes toward education, government, gender, and violence, on which differences between American regions are greater than between European nations.
