Brain Candy for expectant parents
Pregnancy is an adventure.
Lots of books tell you the basics--"the baby is the size of insert fruit here]." But pregnant science writer Jena Pincott began to wonder just how a baby might tinker with her body--and vice versa--and chased down answers to the questions she wouldn't ask her doctor, such as:
- Does stress sharpen your baby's mind--or dull it?
- Can you predict your baby's temperament?
- Why are babies born in the darker months of the year more likely to grow up to be novelty-loving risk takers?
- Are bossy, dominant women more likely to have boys?
- How can the cells left behind by your baby affect you years later?
This is a different kind of pregnancy book--thoughtful, fun, and filled with information you won't find anywhere else.

When it comes to the trials and triumphs of becoming a grown up, journalist Dolly Alderton has seen and tried it all. In her memoir, she vividly recounts falling in love, wrestling with self-sabotage, finding a job, throwing a socially disastrous Rod-Stewart themed house party, getting drunk, getting dumped, realising that Ivan from the corner shop is the only man you've ever been able to rely on, and finding that that your mates are always there at the end of every messy night out. Glittering, with wit and insight, heart and humour, this is a book about the struggles of early adulthood in all its grubby, hopeful uncertainty.

This book of humorous, philosophical, allegorical and nature-loving poetry with its beautiful original illustrations came about through a son's love for his mother.
