Dee Quemby's book is not just a wonderfully warm read but a very actual account of the most demanding and difficult life in show business, that of the COMEDIAN! I told Dee many moons ago that she should enter the idiom that is the easiest life in showbusiness, that of the TV drama actor. That of course she has done to grand acclaim. Get the book it's a great read! BILL maynard Deirdre was my first dancing teacher for 13 years and I owe her a great debt. She is a very talented performer in her own right and it would be great to dance with her again. I still think there's something very big around the corner for her! Stephen Mear (Olivier winning choreographer of Mary Poppins) Dee was brilliant as Emmerdale's Lulu Dingle. But if she'd had access to Lulu's crystal ball and been able to see how tough it would be for a mainstream comedienne to get a break in modern TV, would she have persevered? Dee's book is moving, honest and funny. Garry Bushell (tv critic)

Unless you took Home Economics classes in school or your parents gave you instructions so you could help with the household chores, you may never have learned the various tasks involved in cleaning a house. In both housecleaning and football, one needs to know what to do as well as how and when to do it....in other words, a "game plan" is required. The Story relates the experiences and research required to develop the game plan. The Playbook puts it all together to provide a handy and useful game plan. There are strategies, executions and lists of the equipment necessary. Tips for effectiveness and efficiency are features mixed in with a bit of cleaning trivia which might someday come in handy during awkward "pregnant pauses" at a cocktail party. This handy easy to understand guide may be especially helpful to that bright eyed and bushy tailed offspring moving out of the nest, a newlywed couple, a recently divorced or widowed friend or even someone who doesn't know the difference between a mop and a broom.

In his humorous memoir, Steven Locke chronicles the mishaps, adolescent hazing, general confusion, and breathtaking stupidity exhibited by himself and experienced by those unfortunate enough to be in close proximity. He presents a whimsical journey through his experiences as he matured from an adolescent focused on creating a revolt in the high school cafeteria into a young man ready to tackle a warped world.

Recalling a lifetime of adventures and misadventures, Locke shares vignettes describing run-ins with high school principals, military policemen, irate hotel managers, firemen, university police officers, and Columbus cops. From rural Centertown, Ohio, to Fort Jackson, South Carolina, and from Ohio State University to the classrooms of Ohio's public schools, Locke takes a humorous romp through nearly fifty years of existence as he somehow manages to learn valuable life lessons while on fugitive manhunts, in emergency rooms, and atop snowy Alpine slopes.

A Peck of Trouble offers an entertaining collection of stories that detail one man's coming-of-age journey on the Big Blue Orb as he evolves from youthful barbarian to enlightened adult.

This is a cartoon book featuring Bobby, a dog with ideas on how people can be active after they retire. Bobby shares his ideas with the reader. He also provides illustrations of his two masters, both retirees, performing each activity in a way that is silly or perilous to them, but humorous to the reader. The humor is witty, lighthearted and unpretentious.
