The perfect hilarious and heartwarming gift for the festive season!
When the Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards announced a contest for
the funniest animal photo, they received entries from all over the
world. Now authors and the original Award founders Paul
Joynson-Hicks and Tom Sullam showcase the best of the best - as
well as some never before seen - to present the most joyful
photographs of wildlife ever printed. A pelican losing its lunch; a
three-headed giraffe; a meerkat having a rough day... this is the
must-have book that is perfect for animal lovers of all stripes!
Has this ever happened to you? You're reading Romeo and Juliet but
you keep getting frustrated because there's no bank heists and
barely any surfing. You're halfway through watching Point Break on
your laptop when you slam it shut, shouting "this doesn't even
rhyme!" You're trying to hold a copy of a Shakespeare play and your
Point Break DVD in the same hand so you can pick up a cup of coffee
with your other hand but they don't fit together and they slip out
of your hand so you try to catch them with your other hand but that
spills coffee all over your white t-shirt and the play and the DVD
and the cup hit your toe and you cry out in pain but then you
glance at the title of the play and it's Much Ado About Nothing
which just adds insult to injury so you throw your head to the
heavens and scream "there has to be a better way!" Well now there
is. Point Break and Shakespeare, together at last.
From popular humor writer and social media sensation Anna Lind
Thomas comes the second book of charming and uproarious essays that
capture our universal need for life to just slow down-we weren't
ready for this! Anna Lind Thomas wants everyone to just calm down
and give her a minute, okay? She's not ready for this! In fact,
through her latest collection of laugh-out-loud essays, she'll
prove she's never been ready for anything in her life. Adult
decisions, marriage, parenting, crow's feet, large pores, skinny
jeans--you name it, she ain't ready for it! Don't even get her
started on that one time she appeared on national TV in a blazer
two sizes too small because she thought she'd lose twenty pounds
before the shoot. Good grief, she just wasn't ready! I'm Not Ready
for This will give you the encouragement you need to: Embrace the
unexpected aspects of life Appreciate the incredible power of
vulnerability Let God push you forward, even if you feel like
you're not ready Through her signature wit, charm, and painful
relatability, Anna reminds us that no one's truly ready for
anything--so we might as well go for it and see what happens. She
bets it'll be real good--or at the very least, real funny.
