The Great Beanie Baby Bubble
Author: Zac Bissonnette
Publisher: Portfolio
ISBN: 1591848008
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
"There has never been a craze like Beanie Babies. The $5 beanbag animals with names like Seaweed the Otter and Gigi the Poodle drove a large swath of America into a greed-fueled frenzy as they chased the rarest Beanie Babies, whose values escalated weekly in the late 1990s. Just as strange as the mass hysteria was the man behind it. Sometimes called the "Steve Jobs of plush" by his employees, he obsessed over every detail of every animal his company ever released. He had no marketing budget and no connections, but he had something more valuable - an intuitive grasp of human psychology that would make him the richest man in the history of toys. The Great Beanie Baby Bubble is a classic American story of people winning and losing vast fortunes chasing what one dealer remembers as "the most spectacular dream ever sold.""--Back cover.

Fobbit
Author: David Abrams
Publisher: Open Road + Grove/Atlantic
ISBN: 0802194087
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
An Iraq war comedy that “is everything that terrible conflict was not: beautifully planned and perfectly executed; funny and smart and lyrical; a triumph” (Darin Strauss, author of Half a Life). Fobbit ’fä-bit, noun. Definition: A US soldier stationed at a Forward Operating Base who avoids combat by remaining at the base, esp. during Operation Iraqi Freedom (2003–2011). Pejorative. In the satirical tradition of Catch-22 and M*A*S*H, Fobbit, a New York Times Notable Book, takes us into the chaotic world of Baghdad’s Forward Operating Base Triumph. The Forward Operating base, or FOB, is like the back-office of the battlefield—where people eat and sleep, and where a lot of soldiers have what looks suspiciously like a desk job. Male and female soldiers are trying to find an empty Porta Potty in which to get acquainted, grunts are playing Xbox and watching NASCAR between missions, and a lot of the senior staff are more concerned about getting to the chow hall in time for the Friday night all-you-can-eat seafood special than worrying about little things like military strategy. Darkly humorous and based on the author’s own experiences in Iraq, Fobbit is a fantastic debut that shows us a behind-the-scenes portrait of the real Iraq war. “This novel nails the comedy and the pathos, the boredom and the dread, crafting the Iraq War’s answer to Catch-22.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review

Beach in November
Author: Alexis Larsh
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 103831657X
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
In a world where the Supernatural exists, you’d think bullies and homophobes would be the least of my problems. But when you lived in the quiet, beachside town of Ryterville, South Carolina, anything was possible. Everything there was routine, picturesque, and simple. Made to fit the mold seventy years ago and never changed. So, naturally, when a new family who didn’t fit the mold moved in, it didn’t take long for everyone to know. I met Sebastian Hwang after getting embarrassingly beaten up by my bully, Rachel. He asked if I was okay and ended up being in two of my classes. He sat with me at lunch the first day he arrived, and things went on from there. If only I knew how involved our lives would get. How entangled and destined our fates were. I played classical piano, and he was a ballet dancer. My high school put on an annual talent competition where you combine two or more of the performing arts, and I asked him to perform with me. Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake. In the dizzying whirlwind of romance, secrets, a talent competition, and the Supernatural; there was no way to predict what would happen next. Let’s just hope it wasn’t death. (It was almost death). .
