Robert Minkoff directs this animated adventure feature in which an
ingenious talking dog and his human sidekick attempt to avert
disaster. Mr. Peabody (voice of Ty Burrell) has the achievements to
support claims that he is the smartest being on Earth. An
influential and highly successful scientist, inventor, businessman
and all round polymath, he also happens to be a dog who, in a
somewhat unusual turn of events, has adopted a human boy, Sherman
(Max Charles), to look after. However, when the curious Sherman
creates havoc with Mr. Peabody's latest invention, the WABAC
time-travelling machine, the boy and dog team must embark on an
adventure through history to try and put things right, meeting
figures including Leonardo Da Vinci (Stanley Tucci) and Sigmund
Freud (Mel Brooks) along the way. Lake Bell, Leslie Mann and
Allison Janney also lend their voices to the film.
100% of The Late Show's proceeds from this book go to disaster
relief. Whose Boat Is This Boat? Comments That Don't Help in the
Aftermath of a Hurricane is a picture book made entirely of
quotations from President Donald Trump in the wake of Hurricane
Florence. It is the first children's book that demonstrates what
not to say after a natural disaster. On September 19, 2018, Donald
Trump paid a visit to New Bern, North Carolina, one of the towns
ravaged by Hurricane Florence. It was there he showed deep concern
for a boat that washed ashore. "At least you got a nice boat out of
the deal," said President Trump to hurricane victims. "Have a good
time!" he told them. The only way his comments would be appropriate
is in the context of a children's book-and now you can experience
them that way, thanks to the staff of The Late Show with Stephen
Colbert. Whose Boat Is This Boat? is an excellent teaching tool for
readers of all ages who enjoy learning about empathy by process of
elimination. Have a good time!

Wigfield is a town in danger. Built directly in front of a massive
dam, this bucolic hideaway will soon be flooded when the dam is
torn down by the state government to restore the salmon run.
Wigfield's only hope lies in the self-righteous, self-aggrandizing,
self-involved 'journalist' Russell Hokes, who arrives hoping to
capture the quiet dignity of the disappearing American Small Town.
However, Wigfield is neither quiet nor dignified. And as the date
of Wigfield's destruction draws nearer, Hokes casts about like a
cork in a typhoon desperate to find something about Wigfield worth
documenting--or saving. Told through interviews with its many
colorful residents, and accompanied by photos of the authors in
character, Wigfield is a razor-sharp satire by three major talents.
Now in paperback, a hilarious, satirical look at a small town on
the verge of extinction, from the comedic team behind Strangers
with Candy. In his desperate search for a small town dying in
America, intrepid journalist Russell Hokes stumbles upon a
quarter-mile stretch of concrete and gravel dotted with strip clubs
and used auto parts shops. Welcome to Wigfield. Population: vague.
Upon his arrival, Russell Hokes wanders the streets searching for
the salt of the earth. Instead he finds a town in crisis. Why State
Representative Bill Farber wants to tear down the Bulkwaller Dam,
thereby flooding the town. Will Russell Hokes save the town? Is
Wigfield merely posing as a town to collect federal disaster
relief? Won't you please buy this book?
