Eric Halfbee is a nine-year-old boy from a little place called Boggle Street. He lives with his mum, dad, and annoying - I mean, lovely - sister, Jessica. Eric and Jessica love nothing more than trying to get their dad out of his shed, and eating their mother's latest, questionable, attempts at cooking . . . not. Despite his family's quirks, Eric's life has been pretty normal . . . until now. When an elf appears, called Loki, Eric and Jessica's lives are turned upside down. Ellyon - a world of laughter, jiggery-pokery and a bit of mischief - is under attack from the formidable Ghillie Dhu. The Light Elves and the Dark Elves are finally confronting each other, and only Eric can help them achieve peace. But Eric, as a human, must tread carefully: Ellyon is a strange place and the dangers are real. Join Eric and Jessica on their amazing adventures, over four books, as they travel through the magical world of Ellyon, take on the villainous Ghillie Dhu, and make startling discoveries about different worlds and about themselves. Expect to learn some astonishing things, and lots of laughter along the way

Commemorating a crisis: the first monograph on Eric Rhein, poetical chronicler of the AIDS epidemic in photos, drawings and assemblages This is the first book on the work of American artist Eric Rhein (born 1961), whose career has spanned four decades. This unique monograph-memoir features intimate photographs, taken between 1989 and 2012. The self-portraits and images of friends and lovers correspond to the period spanning Rhein’s HIV diagnosis, his subsequent near death and his experience of a renewed sense of vitality. New York Times critic Holland Cotter wrote of Rhein’s work: “the combination of art and craft, delicacy and resiliency, feminine and masculine, is exquisitely wrought and is, as it should be, seductive but disturbing.” As a personal response to the AIDS crisis, Rhein’s compelling portraits highlight tenderness and care as life-saving instincts. Included are related bodies of work: delicate assemblages and wire drawings, often serving as memorials for fallen friends. Rhein's photography, wire drawings, sculpture and watercolors honor love, touch, connection to nature, and familial history. Rhein mines collective and personal narratives, formulating pieces that are at once poetic and documentarian. Mark Doty and Paul Michael Brown contribute essays.
Like everybody else's life, Eric's is unique. He was thirteen when his father took him, his brother and two sisters out of Canada and away from his Innu mother during a bitter divorce and custody battle. He grew up between two worlds, as a Canadian boy immersed in Italy, as a rising Italian businessman in England, and as an economic refugee of the early 90s recession. Resettling back in Canada after nearly twenty years away, he reconnected with the heritage of his mother's Innu family.
Eric Stone is a young man with a bad reputation. When he is caught doing exactly what is expected of someone like him, most people would write him off, instead Craig Matherson offers him a hand up. Trusting Craig also means trusting in God, who Eric, simply put, doesn't believe in. This hand-up seems like a great deal but it's also not a free ride. It will take a lot of work, personal changes and it comes with a lot of things Eric has to walk away from. Samantha is one of those things. Does Eric have it in him to walk away from the love of his life for the potential of something better? Is there someone out there that would be better suited for Eric along this fresh path? What choices will Eric make and where will they lead him?

Eric Ravilious (1903-1942) is now firmly one of the most popular artists of his period. "Eric Ravilious: Imagined Realities" includes illustrations of many previously unpublished paintings, including a number from private collections, as well as surveying his other artistic activities. The text draws on many letters and other documents, again previously unpublished, and is the most comprehensive account of Revilious' career ever published. It also attempts to position Ravilious in relation to English art of his time, and more recent critical and cultural issues.
Eric is an ordinary boy who loves football, and hates tests. Unluckily, a big test is coming up! Then his Auntie Rose sends him a very strange present from her travels in South America: an ugly, stinky, stripy jumper with magical powers. It can turn the wearer into a genius, so long as it is never washed. Eric finds the jumper really does have a miraculous effect on his brain power – but can there be too much of a good thing?
Eric is just no good at tests and schoolwork, and his mum thinks he isn't trying hard enough. His grumpy teacher Mr Hodgetts (AKA the Bodge) decides he needs extra help. Then a mysterious package arrives from Eric’s Auntie Rose, containing a small round stone which promises to grant a wish. The wish Eric makes might just change everything . . .
Eric's spots are multiplying! It seems his problem might be solved when his Auntie Rose sends Mum some magic face cream from South America. Dare he use it? Eric decides to take the risk and tries out the pimple potion. But he soon discovers there are some very unexpected side effects...
Eric's mum is getting married - to his teacher! If that wasn't bad enough, Auntie Rose has sent a wedding present from her travels, and its magical properties might make Mum have a new baby. Eric definitely doesn't want that, so he and his best friend Wez decide to open all the presents to find it before Mum does. But the magic gift soon proves more troublesome than Eric could have possibly thought . . .
Eric is stressed out! A new baby in the family is bad enough – but this baby is seriously weird. He soon discovers why. His crazy Auntie Rose has sent a present from South America which has incredible powers. But how can Eric get hold of it before the baby goes too far?
