Smart And Sassy

This delightful addition to the Smarter Than Jack series features a collection of animal escapades from around the world showcasing how audacious our furry and feathered friends can be. An Airedale terrier drags his embarrassed owner into a museum, and manages to get her a private tour. A parrot takes surprising revenge on unsuspecting family members. A canny calf makes a bid for freedom using his tongue. While keeping their people on guard, these creatures also take on their peers, as in the case of the determined ewe whose authoritative stamp frightens two pit bulls away from her lambs, or the Dachshund who figures out a way to trick her canine friends out of their food night after night. These 89 reader-submitted tales give first-hand accounts of just how nervy, impish, and clever our nonhuman companions can be. Proceeds from Sassy Animals will help humane societies across the United States in their admirable quest to improve animal welfare.

‘Lauren Sams is the hilarious best friend you haven’t met yet’ Maggie Alderson There’s life Before Baby and life After Baby. Any idiot knows that. I knew that. Except I didn’t know what life After Baby would really be like... Georgie Henderson is discovering that in the twenty-first century being a Good Working Mum means answering emails at midnight while you purée vegetables, line up play dates and French lessons for your four-month-old daughter. Georgie’s ex, Jase, gets 100 per cent of the credit for 5 per cent of the work, and her best friend, Nina, is on a ‘self-discovery’ journey that involves a young bartender and a plan to become an artisanal florist. And all her mum wants is for her to find a man. Preferably the one who is the father of her child. And Georgie? She just wants a nap, which she's quickly discovering is harder to come by than nuts at a preschool. What Reviewers and Readers Say: ‘Crazy Busy Guilty is instantly relatable! Whose life isn’t crazy and busy? And guilt is an occupational hazard of being a mum’ Jessica Rowe 'I laughed at Georgie, and I laughed at myself. I laughed at all of us who somehow manage to get so much done in between childcare pickups and daytime baby naps' Women's Agenda 'The perfect read for a sleep-deprived new mum... With plenty of humour and relatable moments, it delves into society’s expectations of the modern mum' Chicklit Club 'It is highly relatable, insightful and filled with moments of humour as well as of horror. Sams has done a fantastic job of highlighting some of the issues faced by working mothers and included quite the surprise twist in the last couple of chapters' Beauty and Lace 'Hilariously funny and wickedly insightful, Crazy Busy Guilty is a fast-moving novel about the pitfalls of juggling a dream career with parenting, and the perils of modern dating... While they’re much-discussed issues, Sams’ take is fresh and funny and hits right at the heart of the the struggle, with hilarious one-liners and up-to-the-minute observations' Better Reading

If you follow Essential Oil Style on social media, you with thousands of others already know the spot-on observations and disruptive humor of Alex Purnell, owner and founder of Essential Oil Style. "Essential Oil Style just gets us." "Can't get enough of your memes" "I'm obsessed with this page. These quotes always have me laughing" "You never disappoint @ Essential.Oil.Style" The best of Essential Oil Style memes are now collected in a series of books, over 50 memes in each book Book Two: From Sassy to Smart Assy provides a fun ride through common alter egos. Sure, on the surface we essential oilers might seem all sunshine and rainbows - but let's be real here. Every one of us has a few alter egos we would prefer to keep hidden, especially when we've been touting about how much oils have changed our lives. But, like it or not, they are part of who we are, and it just wouldn't be fair to keep them bottled up! You might recognize some of them... 'The Wino,' who's driven and determined up until about 4:59ish, then magically makes stress disappear with a simple "bippity boppity Bordeaux"; 'The Gangsta,' who's so excited she FINALLY has a crew and is ready to roll up and pop off on any disbelieving fool; 'The Hot Mess,' whose love of oils closely competes with her love of braless ice cream and Netflix binges; and 'The Smart Ass,' who wants to save humanity, except she doesn't like people very much. Oh, hello there, 'Negative Nancy,' no, we didn't forget you... seriously, we didn't. Well, no judgements here. In this book, we're going to laugh and embrace all our different alter egos... yes, even that Naughty one! Put the kids to bed and pour yourself a glass of wine! CONTAINS MATURE LANGUAGE
