A friend suggested he try a new app called "PLAYTIME" that catered to people with Little needs. Now he was a captive to his phone, jumping every time it buzzed with a new notification. Finally, while out for a run, it happened Oliver unlocked his phone to see a screen he hadn't seen before. A pink screen with large black letters spelling out, "Mommy Found Click here."

Her name was printed below her picture. He whispered it aloud, "Mia Caplin." Could the beautifully curvy Mia Caplin be the one he's waited to meet? He certainly hoped so.Addiction Warning: Pepper's stories will touch your heart and may warm your bottom.

Flyvende delfiner, dampdrevne mekaniske bukser, doble luftballonger - det finnes mange måter å komme seg rundt på selv om man ikke kan gå. Problemet inntreffer når ballongene setter seg fast i tretoppene. Eller når det ryker så mye av de mekaniske buksene at det ser ut som om man bor i en pipe. Dessuten kan vel ikke delfinene bo i badekaret for alltid? Den første fortellingen om verdens første tamme rullestol. "I sin barnebokdebut «Oliver» forteller Jan Grue en gedigen røverhistorie om rullestolenes opprinnelse. Det har blitt en annerledes bildebok, full av sprø påfunn som får både store og små til å trekke på smilebåndet. (...) Eivind Gulliksens illustrasjoner er like sprudlende som teksten, med masse farger og detaljer, overraskende perspektiver og varierte teknikker. Ansiktene er uttrykksfulle, og bildene tilfører i tillegg litt skarpe kanter fortellingen, ved å vise fram farene som teksten overser." Marie L. Kleve, Dagbladet

The acclaimed Penguin Monarchs series: short, fresh, expert accounts of England's rulers - now in paperbackAlthough he styled himself 'His Highness', adopted the court ritual of his royal predecessors, and lived in the former royal palaces of Whitehall and Hampton Court, Oliver Cromwell was not a king - in spite of the best efforts of his supporters to crown him.Yet, as David Horspool shows in this illuminating new portrait of England's Lord Protector, Cromwell, the Puritan son of Cambridgeshire gentry, wielded such influence that it would be a pretence to say that power really lay with the collective. The years of Cromwell's rise to power, shaped by a decade-long civil war, saw a sustained attempt at the collective government of England; the first attempts at a real Union of Britain; the beginnings of empire; a radically new solution to the idea of a national religion; atrocities in Ireland; and the readmission to England of the Jews, a people officially banned for over three and a half centuries. At the end of it, Oliver Cromwell had emerged as the country's sole ruler: to his enemies, and probably to most of his countrymen, his legacy looked as likely to last as that of the Stuart dynasty he had replaced.

Known as the "Great Dissenter," Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. wrote some of the most eloquent opinions in the history of the United States Supreme Court. A brilliant legal mind who served on the high court into his nineties, Holmes was responsible for some of the most important judicial opinions of the twentieth century. Now, in this superb short biography, G. Edward White offers readers a lively, informative portrait of this singular individual. The book first sketches Holmes's early years--his childhood in Boston, his undergraduate years at Harvard (which his father and both grandfathers also attended), and his valiant service in the Civil War, during which he was severely wounded three times. After the war, Holmes went into private law practice, wrote his landmark treatise The Common Law in 1881, had a short tenure on the Harvard Law School faculty, and spent 20 years as a judge on the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts before being named to the U.S. Supreme Court. The author focuses on his remarkable 30-year service as a Supreme Court Justice, beginning in 1902, and details Holmes's most significant cases--Abrams v. United States, Northern Securities Co. v. United States, Lochner v. New York, Schenck v. United States, and others--which limited working hours, set a mandatory minimum wage, protected women's rights, legalized labor unions, and defined freedom of speech. These decisions--as well as The Common Law--are highly regarded to this day. A new volume in the Lives and Legacy series, this marvelous short biography offers an ideal introduction to a towering figure in American law.
