A large-format, colour edition of this magical novel which weaves together over fifty world tales -- of immense appeal to both adults and children. One day a story fell from heaven and landed on a giant's tongue... ' The Story Giant is a master illusionist and the ur-storyteller. In his memory exists every tale ever told in the world -- except for one, which has eluded him for millennia. In a last desperate attempt to track down this lost tale, he draws four children from the different corners of the globe into his castle while they sleep, there to exchange the tales they know from their own cultures, to see if between them they can piece together the elusive missing story. For if he cannot track it down and install it in his memory, the whole facade of the castle will crumble and fall, and the Story Giant himself will die. And if he does, so will all the stories, and the world will be a poorer, duller, grimmer place. Fifty tales are told within this magical framework in Brian Patten's inimitable style -- from Bruh Rabbit to the tale of how St George killed the Dragon (except it wasn't St George -- it was his mother, with a pudding... ) but none of them are the missing tale. The ca
Andre Roussimoff is known as both the lovable giant in The Princess Bride and a heroic pro-wrestling figure. He was a normal guy who'd been dealt an extraordinary hand in life. At his peak, he weighed 500 pounds and stood nearly seven and a half feet tall. But the huge stature that made his fame also signed his death warrant. Box Brown brings his great talents as a cartoonist and biographer to this phenomenal new graphic novel. Drawing from historical records about Andre's life as well as a wealth of anecdotes from his colleagues in the wrestling world, including Hulk Hogan, and his film co-stars (Billy Crystal, Robin Wright, Mandy Patinkin, etc), Brown has created in Andre the Giant, the first substantive biography of one of the twentieth century's most recognizable figures.
From Lucy, the colossal elephant-shaped building on the Jersey Shore, to the grand donut atop Randy's in Los Angeles, this full-color guide profiles the commercial giants that loom over America's highways. Created to sell products and promote tourism in a big way, they can be found all over the United States. The authors have traveled far and wide to bring readers the world's largest duck in Long Island, an enormous Amish couple in Pennsylvania Dutch Country, and towering Paul Bunyans all over the Midwest. There are buildings shaped like hot dogs, ice cream cones, and baskets, as well as the roadside phenomena known as "Muffler Men," giants who originally advertised mufflers but now have been converted to cowboys, Indians, spacemen, and pirates. Big fun!

The Adventures of Ryan & Brian is a marvelous true story of Ryan Boatner. Ryan is a double handicapped boy who finds adventure in everything he and his father do together. As Ryan tells his story you will begin see the world from his perspective, the world of only feeling, smelling, and hearing. The world, as Ryan experiences it daily, is just a blur. Ryan depends almost exclusively on how his dad or someone else describes his surroundings to him. The world Ryan knows is far different than a regular sighted person, and his having to be in a wheelchair with cerebral palsy makes things even more difficult. Everyday activities that Ryan does take more time and effort. But with the help of his dad, Ryan learns to adapt, overcome, and conquer some of the more difficult tasks to make his world fit him. Ryan’s father teaches him that there are “No Limits. You can do anything you want to if you want to do it bad enough.” This manuscript is wonderful. It really gives a fantastic insight into a world that most of us take for granted. Seeing the world from Ryan’s perspective is a real eye-opener; it makes the reader stop and just take a look around at all the things we usually miss. All in all, absolutely wonderful stuff, and I am so glad I had the privilege to work on it. Mark Hooper at Angel Editing
