A hilarious new book about a boy who refuses to wear clothes, from comedian Michael Ian Black and illustrator Debbi Ridpath Ohi, the team that brought you "I'm Bored," a "New York Times "Notable Children's Book.
Michael Ian Black and Debbie Ridpath Ohi, whose "smart cartoony artwork matches Black's perfect comic timing" ("The New York Times Book Review"), have paired up again to showcase the antics of an adorable little boy who just doesn't want to get dressed.
After his bath, the little boy begins his hilarious dash around the house...in the buff Being naked is great. Running around, sliding down the stairs, eating cookies. Nothing could be better. Unless he had a cape...

A girl, a flamingo, and a worried potato star in the third book in New York Times bestselling author Michael Ian Black and celebrated illustrator Debbie Ridpath Ohi's series about feelings-and why they're good, even when they feel bad. Potato is worried. About everything. Because anything might happen. When he tells his friends, he expects them to comfort him by saying that everything will be okay. Except they don't. Because it might not be, and that's okay too. Still, there's one thing they can promise for sure: no matter what happens...they will always be by his side.

A slightly different slant on the 'slacker' comedy genre directed by 'Friends' star David Schwimmer. Five years ago Dennis (Simon Pegg) was at the altar about to marry Libby (Thandie Newton), his pregnant fiancee. He got cold feet and headed for the hills, and he's been going in circles ever since. When Dennis discovers Libby's now hooked up with high-flying go-getter Whit (Hank Azaria), he realises it's now or never. Assisted by his friend Gordon (Dylan Moran), he decides to enter a marathon to show he's not a quitter but then finds out just how much sweat, strain and pain it takes to run for 26 miles. No one rates his chances, but Dennis knows this is the only way to stop being a running joke.

Get ready for the read of your life. Never before has a single book combined awesome vans, unicorns, Billy Joel, and erotic fiction in such a potent combination. A writing tour de force? Perhaps. A reading experience that will sear itself into your consciousness like a red-hot branding iron? Without question.

Comedian and basic cable superstar Michael Ian Black unleashes the full fury of his astonishing intellect in this collection of short comic essays. "My Custom Van" is a no-holds-barred assault to the funny bone that will literally beat you into submission with hilarity*.

How did he do it? How did he create such a fine anthology? Answer: With love. Michael opened his heart and used the magical power of love to write more than fifty thought-provoking essays like, "Why I Used a Day-Glo Magic Marker to Color My Dick Yellow," and "An Open Letter to the Hair Stylist Who Somehow Convinced Me to Get a Perm When I Was in Sixth Grade."

Maybe you think love is not a substitute for "good writing skills" and "spell check." Bull pucky! When it comes to writing books, love is the most powerful word processor of all.

Sounds pretty great, right? And yet...something is still holding you back from paying the full purchase price of this book. What is it? Perhaps you secretly believe you do not deserve a book this good. Nonsense -- you deserve this book and so much more. In fact, if Michael could have written you all the stars in the sky, that's what he would have done. But he couldn't do that, due to his lack of knowledge in the area of astronomy. So he wrote this book instead.

And this flap copy.

Enjoy.

Being naked is great. Running around, sliding down the stairs, eating cookies... The only thing better than naked? Caped! Being caped is awesome. Flying through the air, fighting evil doers. But eating cookies mostly naked (but also caped)...that is exhausting. Join a little boy on his hilarious run around the house...in the buff!

FINALLY, Michael Ian Black--suburban husband, father, and very famous comedian--ponders the question so many of us ask ourselves: How did I end up here? With deadpan wit and unexpected candor, Michael delivers a darkly funny-because-it's-true take on his childhood, marriage, children, and career.
Here he is--the brilliant mind behind "Stella "and "The State: "NAKED, EXPOSED, A LITTLE CHILLY, AND UNDERSTANDABLY SHRIVELED.

When a mind-reading monkey asks his audience to imagine the most spectacular thing in history, the outcome is bound to be zany And sure enough, in this rollicking tale complete with rich illustrations, this simple request evolves into the story of a roller-skating, bubble-blowing purple kangaroo who's searching for his dear friend Senor Ernesto de Pantelones on the moon. Guaranteed to engage the imagination and keep the laughs coming, this playful narrative from Michael Ian Black--comedian, actor, and author of "Chicken Cheeks"--and the bestselling author/ artist of "Chowder "will undoubtedly leave you thinking of nothing BUT the purple kangaroo.
