From the bestselling author of 52 Things to Do While You Poo, this
nostalgic mix of trivia and puzzles will bring back the awesome
appeal of the Eighties If you grew up in the 1980s, you know that
nothing compares to the music, fashion, toys, TV, films and sheer
feel of that decade. But how much can you really remember? When you
next take a trip to the toilet, this colourful collection of
puzzles, activities and trivia will serve as a leisurely stroll
down memory lane, dusting off half-remembered facts and even
filling in a few gaps. From bestselling author and fiendish
brain-teaser Hugh Jassburn, this illustrated celebration of
history's finest decade includes the following challenges and more:
Help Arnie navigate through a jungle maze to get to the chopper
Match hit songs to the year they came out Solve trivia questions
relating to Madonna and the TV show Dallas Track down the names of
iconic world leaders in a word search Spot the differences in a sea
of Rubik's cubes 52 Things to Do While You Poo: The 1980s Edition
is the perfect gift for those who lived through these glory days -
or those who just wish they had.
Dreaming and relaxing, with gorgeous patterns and inspirational
quotes, this beautiful new book will give you many hours of
pleasure, and calm. With a range of challenging and more restful
designs, Life Can Be Beautiful, the follow up to the hugely
successful Love & Friendship, takes you on an intimate journey
where the satisfaction of creating stunning artworks is mixed with
powerful quotes to contemplate. You can use a wide variety of pens:
from gel and pencil, to pigment and crayons, from ballpoint and
rollerball to highlighters, although it's best to avoid the heavy
felt pens. Each page is perforated near the spine of the book, so
you can tear out and frame, or simply place your wonderful creation
on the walls of your home, perhaps even send them as a gift to your
loved ones. You'll have to make a choice about which design to
make, if you want to tear it out, but with nearly 120 to choose
from there's more than enough to help you make your decision. Each
page is perforated, and ready for you to frame. Bring the Ink to
life!

Put Your Faith Into Action
Do you ever feel like something in your faith is missing, that
going to church, studying the Bible, and tithing just aren't
enough? There has to be more, right? What would it look like to
truly "follow" Christ and not just believe in him?
David Nowell asked the very same questions, and was led to minister
to the "least of these," whom God loves deeply. In "Dirty Faith,"
Nowell shares powerful stories of faith in action, and encourages
us to move with him from the sidelines to the front line, to get
our hands dirty helping the hopeless, the disenfranchised, and the
poor.
Loving as God loves is central to the gospel, whether that means
taking in foster children, ministering to inmates at the local
jail, or something else God has in mind just for you. Let this
inspiring book help you find what's been missing in your faith.
"David Nowell has challenged not only our view of the church's
responsibility in light of the worldwide plague of violence on
children--from poverty to homelessness to prostitution--he has
challenged our view of Jesus Christ. Nowell's Jesus has dirt under
his fingernails and calluses on his hands. The Word becoming flesh
is not just incarnation, it is a holiness that is willing to be
stained by the brokenness of a world that would abuse an innocent
child. I want my staff to read this book. It will challenge them to
do what is required of them, and then some." --Dr. Walter Crouch,
President/CEO, Appalachia Service Project
"Filled with unforgettable stories from the field, Nowell's writing
will both break your heart and lift your vision. "Dirty Faith" is a
must-read for those who want to put their faith into action by
serving others." --Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer, senior pastor, The Moody
Church
The Art of Fine Gifts: The tarot cards in this pack are adapted
from a Tarot of Marseille deck by Nicolas Conver that dates to
1760. It was one of the earliest confirmed decks and has been
beautifully reproduced here. The Major and Minor Arcana cards are
accompanied by an informative booklet, which gives a history of
tarot, information on each card and a step-by-step guide to get
started with a tarot reading.
Trivia should be fun-not feel like a homework assignment. That's
why this Junk Food (& Food Food) Trivia set by Brass Monkey is
filled with some of the most pointless food knowledge we could
find...and even better, you'll choose your questions from a bunch
of misleading categories. For example: 'Hunger Games.' Those are
questions about eating competitions, by the way. * Includes 200
unique trivia questions to test your random food knowledge (to say
the least). * Each question is grouped in an
entertainingly-misleading category to keep everyone
guessing-literally. * Comes with an instruction sheet that explains
3 different ways to play (depending on how smart you think you
are). * Each of our trivia collections contains entirely different
questions (and categories). Collect them all to build the world's
most useless trivia library. * The outer box measures 3.5" square
by 3" deep-that's 89mm square by 76mm if you're fancy. * Suitable
for 2-8+ people. Go crazy.
