Book Description
A collection of hilarious short stories from twenty-five year old Internet sensation Nicholas Megalis on his distinctively weird life and childhood, fully illustrated by Tom Megalis, his celebrated artist and animator dad. From Internet sensation Nicholas Megalis, comes Mega Weird, a collection of hilarious short stories on life as an anxiety-fueled artist, musician, and proudly weird dude. Raised in a ridiculous family of artists, Greek immigrants, and all-around weirdos, Megalis has had a strange and beautiful ride (and has consumed an ungodly amount of spanakopita). Mega Weird is an illustrated journal of Megalis’s twenty-five years on this planet—borderline fireworks pyromania, chain-smoking at age seven, psychotic magic trick obsessions, the perils of being a thirteen-year-old boy, a month-long band tour fueled by Taco Bell, caffeine, and guitars—each story accompanied by original art from his celebrated artist and animator dad, Tom Megalis. Mega Weird is an assurance that it's okay to be different. In fact, it's essential. Megalis wasn't good at sports and could barely tie his shoes until he was twenty, but that's fine. Who cares? He’s proud to be weird. And you should be too. Life is insane, life is great. Thank God for rock and roll.

Book Description
Readers will find this charming, funny, easy-to-read middle-grade novel from the beloved Patrick Jennings an absolute hoot! When the new kid joins his class, Woodrow agrees with his schoolmates—Toulouse is really weird. He's short—kindergarten short—dresses in a suit like a grandpa, has huge eyes, and barely says a word. But Woodrow isn't exactly Mr. Popularity. The frequent target of the class bully himself, he figures that maybe all Toulouse needs is a chance. And when the two are put together in gym to play volleyball, they make quite the team. Toulouse can serve, set, and spike like a pro. He really knows how to fly around the court. But when the attention and teasing switch back to Woodrow, he learns that the new kid is great at something else: being a friend. Full of heart and laughs, Odd, Weird, and Little is another winner from the author of the Guinea Dog series.

Book Description
What do you get the man who has everything? Are you struggling to find the ideal present for your dad, brother, uncle or cousin? They've got everything - or at least everything you can afford! Can't get them any more novelty socks - you got them last year. Give them this book and watch them rock with laughter. Perfect the art of Schadenfreude from your own armchair as you wonder who left the lid of the idiot box open. Laugh at the dumb and dumber from the comfort of your own toilet seat. Wonder at the stupidity of man with hilarious anecdotes spanning time and history and culture. "Outrageously amusing stories...." "We could hear my dad chortling away" "Put a smile on my face for hours, except when I was laughing aloud" "Fact is definitely stranger than fiction but a lot funnier too" "200 or so facts you never needed to know, but now you will never forget." "My uncle laughed so hard he went red, and we had to give him one of his pills" In this book.... Hear about the time a spiritual guru steamed himself to death in a giant pot, along with some corn and steamed buns? Or the time a president projectile vomited on a prime minister at a state banquet. Was it something they said? Back in New York in February 1940 at the world premiere of Walt Disney's Pinocchio. Walt had hired 11 midgets, dressed them up as Pinocchio and put them on top of Radio City Music Hall. The idea was they could wave to the children entering the theatre. However, in a moment of inspiration, someone sent up alcohol with their lunch. So by the middle of the afternoon, there were 11 drunken, naked midgets cavorting on the roof and screaming obscenities at the crowd. They had to be removed by police, who carried them away in pillowcases. As the great Professor Stephen Hawking once said, "Stupidity remains the biggest threat to mankind." No truer words have ever been spoken; so we might as well enjoy it. Get or Give hours of amusement - scroll up and click the BUY NOW button
