Book Description
In May 1977 Posy Simmonds, an unknown young illustrator, started drawing a weekly comic strip for the Guardian. It began as a silly parody of girls' adventure stories, making satirical comments about contemporary life. The strip soon focused on three 1950s school friends in their later middle-class and nearly middle-aged lives: Wendy Weber, a former nurse married to polytechnic sociology lecturer George with a large brood of children; Jo Heep, married to whisky salesman Edmund with two rebellious teenagers; and Trish Wright, married to philandering advertising executive Stanhope and with a young baby. The strip, which was latterly untitled and usually known just as 'Posy', ran until the late 1980s. Collected here for the first time are the complete strips. Although celebrated for pinpointing the concerns of Guardian readers in the 1980s and their constant struggle to remain true to the ideals of the 1960s, they are in fact remarkably undated. They show one of Britain's favourite cartoonists, celebrated for Literary Life and Tamara Drewe, maturing into genius.

Book Description
Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. The haunted doll has long been a trope in horror movies, but like many fears, there is some truth at its heart. Dolls are possessed-by our aspirations. They're commonly used as a tool to teach mothering to young girls, but more often they are avatars of the idealized feminine self. (The word "doll" even acts as shorthand for a desirable woman.) They instruct girls what to strive for in society, reinforcing dominant patriarchal, heteronormative, white views around class, bodies, history, and celebrity, in insidious ways. Girls' dolls occupy the opposite space of boys' action figures, which represent masculinity, authority, warfare, and conflict. By analyzing dolls from 17th century Japanese Hinamatsuri festivals, to the '80s American Girl Dolls, and even to today's bitmoji, “Doll” reveals how the objects society encourages us to play with as girls shape the women we become. Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.

TJ Ryan has always wanted a big family. Watching all of his friends have families of their own, he’s caught the baby bug. He just needs to convince his husband, Connor, it’s a brilliant idea. Armed with portfolios from different surrogates and a reality tv show to follow their journey, TJ tries to persuade Connor that they need a baby ASAP, but Connor isn’t so sure they shouldn’t explore other options like adoption or being foster parents. Connor Ryan loves his husband and wants to do whatever he can to make him happy, but to what extent? Connor is busy co-owning The Social Hour with his best friend, Cam, and they’re about to launch a new location. Now is not the time to add chaos to their lives. But chaos is TJ’s middle name.

Book Description
Rebirth is a story of how God reminds us to love one another. I always felt that people who love dogs are spiritually connected, and my dog training profession allowed me to meet many remarkable people. Although some people may be unaware of this connection, a selected few transcended to me a spiritual deliverance. Only as my story progressed, did I truly begin to understand what these gifted few represented; a God given spiritual love connection! A special woman, Doll, was unknowingly selected to bring true meaning to all of the phenomenon that I experienced prior to my meeting her. I was overwhelmed by her answers to the spiritual signs as my story of gifted love unfolded. My wife Ruth witnessed the spiritual signs I was experiencing and kept the spirit of God alive as my experience unfolded and helped to convince me to deliver my message of God's love in this story of Rebirth.
