Book excerpt: Ellis is now best friends with a grumpy, talking popcorn kernel. Yes, REALLY! Together, they're secretly handing out popcorn to Ellis's classmates (since her school is now officially a "Healthy School"—blech), and everything is great. Bob is even learning how to control his hanger. (Kind of.) But Ellis and Bob are in danger—visitors from the possibly nefarious Popcorn & Co. are following them, and it's clear they're after Bob! Will Ellis be able to keep Bob out of their clutches?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, in one glittering volume, replete with tinsel, and dripping with love and venom, is a collection of over 3,000 quotes by some 700 movie personalities--those who have lived and toiled in Hollywood since the birth of the movie industry. In a sense these quotes give the essence and flavor of Hollywood as nothing else can. The cast of characters includes: Greta Garbo, Bob Hope, Elizabeth Taylor, W.C. Fields, Bette Davis, Alfred Hitchcock, Groucho Marx, Cecil B. DeMille, Sammy Davis Jr., Marlene Dietrich, Sir Laurence Olivier, John Wayne, Woody Allen, Laurel and Hardy, and hundreds more. A special chapter is devoted to Sam Goldwyn, Hollywood's leading independent film producer for 35 years. "Popcorn" and "paradise" may seem contradictory, but just as Hollywood ranges from the ridiculous to the sublime, so these two words sum up and typify what Hollywood was, is, and doubtless always will be so long as the silver screen maintains its hold on our lives.

Book excerpt: Ellis loves popcorn. Who doesn't? But one day her school goes on a healthy eating campaign and her dads decide to follow suit, banning all snack foods from their house, INCLUDING POPCORN. Unfair. Ellis has got to get around that edict, so one night she pops a bag of popcorn out back in the garage...and she's met with more than just her favorite salty snack. One kernel refuses to pop, and soon it's sprouted a face, arms, and legs! He introduces himself as Popcorn Bob, and he is NOT in a good mood. (Ever, really.) He's absolutely ravenous, and no amount of food keeps him from being hangry. Bob causes no end of chaos for Ellis, and she decides to rid herself of him once and for all, except...she actually starts to like him. A chapter book for all ages, Popcorn Bob is a laugh-out-loud story about the power of friendship, and a perfect bowl of popcorn.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Eric Toensmeier and Jonathan Bates moved into a duplex in a run-down part of Holyoke, Massachusetts, the tenth-of-an-acre lot was barren ground and bad soil, peppered with broken pieces of concrete, asphalt, and brick. The two friends got to work designing what would become not just another urban farm, but a "permaculture paradise" replete with perennial broccoli, paw paws, bananas, and moringa—all told, more than two hundred low-maintenance edible plants in an innovative food forest on a small city lot. The garden—intended to function like a natural ecosystem with the plants themselves providing most of the garden's needs for fertility, pest control, and weed suppression—also features an edible water garden, a year-round unheated greenhouse, tropical crops, urban poultry, and even silkworms. In telling the story of Paradise Lot, Toensmeier explains the principles and practices of permaculture, the choice of exotic and unusual food plants, the techniques of design and cultivation, and, of course, the adventures, mistakes, and do-overs in the process. Packed full of detailed, useful information about designing a highly productive permaculture garden, Paradise Lot is also a funny and charming story of two single guys, both plant nerds, with a wild plan: to realize the garden of their dreams and meet women to share it with. Amazingly, on both counts, they succeed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history, legends, and cookery of America's favorite snack food Whether in movie theaters or sports arenas, at fairs or theme parks, around campfires or family hearths, Americans consume more popcorn by volume than any other snack. To the world, popcorn seems as American as baseball and apple pie. Within American food lore, popcorn holds a special place, for it was purportedly shared by Native Americans at the first Thanksgiving. In Popped Culture, Andrew F. Smith tests such legends against archaeological, agricultural, culinary, and social findings. While debunking many myths, he discovers a flavorful story of the curious kernel's introduction and ever-increasing consumption in North America. Unlike other culinary fads of the nineteenth century, popcorn has never lost favor with the American public. Smith gauges the reasons for its unflagging popularity: the invention of "wire over the fire" poppers, commercial promotion by shrewd producers, the fascination of children with the kernel's magical "pop," and affordability. To explain popcorn's twentieth-century success, he examines its fortuitous association with new technology—radio, movies, television, microwaves—and recounts the brand-name triumphs of American manufacturers and packagers. His familiarity with the history of the snack allows him to form expectations about popcorn's future in the United States and abroad. Smith concludes his account with more than 160 surprising historical recipes for popcorn cookery, including the intriguing use of the snack in custard, hash, ice cream, omelets, and soup.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One should never underestimate the breadth of a child's imagination. From dreams of grandeur to fears of monsters lurking in unsuspecting places, a child's mind operates, in many ways, on a different level than adults. There's A Monster In My Popcorn provides an example of the power of the imagination while giving a riveting story about a little girl whose imagination runs wild. There's A Monster In My Popcorn depicts the events of a typical Saturday morning for any child: watching cartoons, crafts, coloring, and snack food. However, when her bowl of popcorn appears to be moving, young Claire's ordinary Saturday morning becomes filled with disorder, fear, and worry of a monster living on the inside of her popcorn bowl. "I know it's probably big and green and fuzzy with two big eyes and two smelly feet just like I watch on TV," she exclaims. With the reassurance of her mother, Claire confronts the popcorn monster of her runaway imagination while revealing greater life truths. The story serves as a reminder, to children of all ages, that things are not always as bad as they might seem at first glance. Furthermore, it reveals important lessons that one can find joy and peace in each of life's stressful experiences.
