Book Description
Coloring books became a thing when adults discovered how relaxing and meditative they were. Jigsaw puzzles roared back into popularity as an immersive activity, not to mention a great alternative to television. How exciting is it, then, to introduce an activity that tops them both: reverse coloring, which not only confers the mindful benefits of coloring and puzzling but energizes you to feel truly creative, even when you're weary and just want to zone out. It's so simple, yet so profoundly satisfying. Each page in The Reverse Coloring Book has the colors, and you draw the lines. Created by the artist Kendra Norton, these beautiful and whimsical watercolors provide a gentle visual guide so open-ended that the possibilities are limitless. Trace the shapes, draw in figures, doodle, shade, cover an area with dots. Be realistic, with a plan, or simply let your imagination drift, as if looking a clouds in the sky. Each page is an invitation to slow down, let go, and thoughtfully (or thoughtlessly) let your pen find its way over the image. The Reverse Coloring Book includes 50 original works of art, printed on sturdy paper that's single-sided and perforated. And unlike with traditional coloring books, all you need is a pen.

Corporate Cliches
Author: John Lim

Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 44
Book Description
Note: this is a 5.5" x 8.5" (13.97 x 21.59 cm) size coloring book, similar to A5 padfolio size; perfect for purses, briefcases, backpacks. "Take it offline," "Let's get the ball rolling," "Ping me," and of course, "synergy." These are just some of the worst clich�s that have come out of corporate America. It's a known fact that prolonged exposure to these office sayings can lead to increased eye-rolling, annoyance and strain of the facial muscles from too much fake smiling when hearing these from your manager. To combat this, we've created this corporate clich�s adult coloring book as much needed stress therapy; a fun, passive-aggressive way to take out your angst against these ridiculous office sayings that have taken over your meetings, memos and emails from your company's higher ups. We've taken 19 of the most annoying corporate clich�s and translated them into hilarious, literal translations that you can color and poke fun at. Most are even workplace friendly so you can hang them on your wall without your manager giving you the stink eye (well, depending on where you work ... hmmm time for the disclaimer: we make no promises on whether you'll get the stink eye if you pin pages of this book to your office / cubicle wall, so you assume the risk on that!). ***Benefits*** -We've taken 19 of the most ridiculous corporate clich�s that have ended up on top business publications' "must stop using list" and translated them into hilarious, literal representations. -5.5" x 8.5" (13.97 x 21.59 cm) similar to A5 padfolio size; perfect for purses, briefcases, backpacks. -The perfect birthday, stocking stuffer, white elephant, secret Santa, gift for a co-worker, friend or loved one who has to suffer thru these clich�s on a daily basis. -Studies have shown that adult coloring books are perfect stress therapy. We even consulted with a few therapists who confirmed this. And let's face it, hearing corporate clich�s over and over is not fun! But what is fun is poking fun at them in a passive-aggressive way that can relieve stress! -Unlike most coloring books, each illustration is a carefully crafted theme, tied to a specific clich� and not simply random patterns. -Coloring book images are only on one side of the page (we didn't double dip!). -But not to waste the space, we put some fun stuff on the reverse side of each page: a corporate-speak definition, fun trivia and a hashtag on so you can post pictures of your artwork on social media. -We even included a fun all-occasion gift checklist inside the cover so you don't have to buy a separate gift card. You can be cheap and environmentally friendly at the same time!

The Ladies' Book of Etiquette, and Manual of Politeness
Author: Florence Hartley
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
In preparing a book of etiquette for ladies, I would lay down as the first rule, "Do unto others as you would others should do to you." You can never be rude if you bear the rule always in mind, for what lady likes to be treated rudely? True Christian politeness will always be the result of an unselfish regard for the feelings of others, and though you may err in the ceremonious points of etiquette, you will never be impolite. Politeness, founded upon such a rule, becomes the expression, in graceful manner, of social virtues. The spirit of politeness consists in a certain attention to forms and ceremonies, which are meant both to please others and ourselves, and to make others pleased with us; a still clearer definition may be given by saying that politeness is goodness of heart put into daily practice; there can be no _true_ politeness without kindness, purity, singleness of heart, and sensibility.

The Book of the Damned
Author: Charles Fort
Publisher: Library of Alexandria
ISBN: 1613106424
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 442
Book Description
"Time travel, UFOs, mysterious planets, stigmata, rock-throwing poltergeists, huge footprints, bizarre rains of fish and frogs-nearly a century after Charles Fort's Book of the Damned was originally published, the strange phenomenon presented in this book remains largely unexplained by modern science. Through painstaking research and a witty, sarcastic style, Fort captures the imagination while exposing the flaws of popular scientific explanations. Virtually all of his material was compiled and documented from reports published in reputable journals, newspapers and periodicals because he was an avid collector. Charles Fort was somewhat of a recluse who spent most of his spare time researching these strange events and collected these reports from publications sent to him from around the globe. This was the first of a series of books he created on unusual and unexplained events and to this day it remains the most popular. If you agree that truth is often stranger than fiction, then this book is for you"--Taken from Good Reads website.
