'Mark Watson is a national treasure' Richard OsmanWhatever I now know about life - or think I know - I found out through failure, disappointment, mortification. I'm writing it all down as much to remind myself as for anyone else - but now you're here, I'd love you to stick around . . .Mark Watson is generally accepted to be alive. And yet he's died many times. Not just on stage - though he'll tell you about that - but in other ways, too. There's been the death of a childhood dream. The death of his panel-show career. And then there was the time he died inside and nearly lost it all . . .Eye-opening, revealing and painfully funny, this is a book about mortification, failure and all the times life doesn't work out as planned. But it also wisely questions whether the things we strive for - recognition, success, the approval of others - are really the things that matter. It's a book about death that reminds us how to live.'Mark Watson makes the base metal of failure into comedy gold' Adam Kay

He is immediately entranced by the city - a futuristic environment unlike anywhere he's ever been before, with an almost uncanny level of customer service. Shimmering and seductive, it seems as though nothing bad could ever happen in Dubai. But when a crew member is found dead in in mysterious circumstances, Tim learns that if a place seems too good to be true, it probably is . . .

Xavier Ireland is the assumed name of a radio-show host with a devoted following of listeners riveted by the sleepless loners who call in throughout the night to seek his advice. Off the air, he leads a low-key life of avoiding his neighbors, playing Scrabble, and maintaining an awkward friendship with his cohost, Murray. But his life begins to change when he meets a cleaning lady named Pippa, who becomes a constant, surprisingly necessary presence in his life as he starts facing up to his past and discovering solace and redemption in the most unexpected places. British comedian Mark Watson's North American debut humorously and poignantly explores life and death, strangers and friends, heartache and comfort, and whether the choices we don't make affect us just as powerfully as the ones we do.

Sant Jordi s tamb el patr de l'escoltisme ja que "era l'arquetip del que ha de ser un bon escolta ". L'escriptor Mark Watson ha investigat totes les llegendes de Sant Jordi i ha pres les parts m s comunes (posar els seus dubtes i temors en una caixa, donar a la princesa una rosa) i ha descartat els aspectes m s avorrits per a crear la versi definitiva de la llegenda.

St George and the Dragon Colouring Storybook: The Legend of St George and the Dragon (Colouring Storybook for Children and Adults)
St George and the Dragon: The Legend of Saint George and the Dragon Colouring Storybook for adults and children.Feauring illustrations from the brilliant "St George and the Dragon: The Legend of Saint George and the Dragon" by Mark Watson and Richard Caine. St George is the patron Saint of over 50 Countries worldwide. Each country celebrates St George's day with differing traditions, the story is never out of fashion and grows in popularity each year.St George is the Patron Saint of Aragon, Catalonia, Ethiopia, Georgia, Greece, Lithuania, Palestine, Portugal, and Russia. St George is the patron saint of soldiers, archers, cavalry, chivalry, riders, saddlers, farmers and field workers. St George is also the patron saint of Scouting as he "was typical of what a scout should be." Writer Mark Watson has researched all the legends of St George and taken the parts that are the most common - putting his doubts and fears in a box, giving the Princess a rose - and discarded the more boring aspects to create the definitive version of the legend.Any extraneous parts have been trimmed such as the Princess entering a lottery, Saint George recovering under an orange tree etc to make the book very lean in its storytelling, St George arrives, sees the destruction, fights the dragon and is defeated, recovers and ultimately triumphs, like a Hollywood movie, it is the classic three-act structure. Roses became a symbol of the patron saint because a beautiful bloom is thought to have grown on his grave. This also came from a tradition in Catalonia in Spain - of which Saint George is also a patron saint - where women would give men a book and receive a rose in return on the feast day.St George's day is typically celebrated on April 23rd.The illustrations of St George and the Dragon have been done by German artist Richard Caine, each image has been handpainted in acrylic. This is the culmination of almost a year's work. The story of St George is written in verse, like all Mark Watson's children's books. The verse is constructed of rhyming couplets in perfect rhyme ... Thunder splits the air, lightning flashes all around, from the pit beside the castle comes a frightful sound. The rolling clouds of poison, churn and tear apart, from the mighty thump thump thumping of a giant dragon's heart. The Dragon rises from the gorge, filling all the sky, he sees himself, a tiny George, reflected in its eye. "Who are you?" The Dragon asks, "Have you come alone?"Its voice is pure evil, like bone scraping bone. This knight of the crusades, holding lance, shield and bladesits upright upon his horse, grim yet unafraid. "I've been abroad but now I'm home. My name is George, I stand alone.There is no army only I, I'll fight and win or fight and die." What are you waiting for?
