*The final collection of short stories from the incredible Sir Terry Pratchett!* Imagination is an amazing thing. It can take you to the top of the highest mountain, or down to the bottom of the deepest depths of the sea. This where it took Doggins on his Awfully Big Adventure: a quest full of magic and flying machines. (And the world's best joke - trust me, it's hilarious.) It took three young inventors to the moon (where they may or may not have left a bottle of lemonade) and a caveman on a trip to the dentist. You can join them on these adventures, and many more, in this incredible collection of stories . . . From the greatest imagination there ever was. Written for local newspapers when Terry Pratchett was a young lad, these never previously published stories are packed full of anarchic humour and wonderful wit. A must-have for Terry fans . . . and young readers looking for a fix of magic.

We all know who Father Christmas is. He's that fat jolly chap with the beard, the red suit and the presents. But what's he really like? How come he's never got stuck down your chimney? and would you recognise him without his suit on? Knife and Packer deserve a huge sack of pressies this Christmas for scopping a World Exclusive interview with the great man himself and bringing You the Naked truth.

This book, set in the '50s through the '70s in rural South Carolina is a collection of true stories that depict what it was like to grow up during the greatest era of the United States of America. An era when love, church, family, and patriotism were the cornerstones of our society, and common sense parenting was used to raise children. I am a product of this era, and it is an honor for me to share my collection of stories with you. These stories are about interactions and events that happened in my life and how my dad's reactions, responses, and behaviors not only taught me valuable lessons but helped to shape my life forever. Each of my dad's lessons about life correspond directly with lessons taught by my Father's Word. This book has something for people at every age and every stage of life. Everyone can learn something about themselves and about life by reading these stories. As you read My Dad, My Father, I hope you find these stories to be entertaining and enjoyable.
