Book excerpt: Mission Joy is high octane middle-grade adventure full of comedy and heart. Perfect for readers aged 8+ and fans of David Walliams and The Last Kids on Earth. Jesse Joy is a twelve year old that never smiles. Why would he? School is seriously boring. People won’t stop telling him what to do. And he is the poorest kid in class. And just when Jesse thinks things can’t get any worse, his dad gets kidnapped. A mysterious family friend tells Jesse that to save his dad he needs the help of Frankenstein, Dracula and Cinderella. It shouldn’t be too hard. First, he needs to break into the British Library and steal one of its most prized possessions. Then he has to survive a trip to Paris on top of a bullet train. Then he has to jump off a moving rollercoaster into a magical book in Abu Dhabi. Then, and only then, he can finally begin his rescue mission. Can Jesse pull it off? Will he save his father before it’s too late? And will he ever find a reason to smile? WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT MISSION JOY ‘OMG, such a funny book! I laughed so hard I broke a rib! ... The rib punctured my liver. Srsly. They took me to a hospital.’ - William Shakespeare ‘This book is not sad enough. Where is all the pain, the suffering? What is this?’ – Fyodor Dostoevsky ‘Cracking good read!’ - Humpty Dumpty ‘A triumph! It’s the new Harry Potter, only without wands, brooms, spells, a magical school, a boy wizard or wizardry of any kind.’ - Unicyclist Weekly ‘Hugely entertaining. If you like adventure, chases, explosions, comedy then this one is for you. If you don’t like those things then it’s not.’ - Miniature Donkey Digest ‘A modern-day Tom Sawyer with a healthy dash of David Walliams’ - Marketing Department ‘Mission Joy is an absolute masterpiece in my completely unbiased opinion for which I didn’t not receive a small thank you gift from the publisher.’ - Tom Pinocchio, author of Encyclopaedia of Lying ‘This book has a great amount of words. Great words. So very great.’ - Former president of the United States ‘You need to buy this book! Go! Drop everything now! (Unless you are holding a baby.)’ - Negligence Illustrated ‘This is the greatest book in the world, besides mine’ - New York Times bestselling author ‘Unputdownable. I stopped eating, drinking, bathing, breathing. I’m pretty sure there are insects living in my hair. I have a dead cat in my kitchen.’ - Jane Austen

Book excerpt: Emily Matchar offers a smart, measured investigation into the cultural, social, and economic implications of a return to domesticity in this fascinating book “chock-full of historical context, strong research and compelling personal stories” (Christian Science Montor). Amid today’s rising anxieties—the economy, the scary state of the environment, the growing sense that the American Dream hasn’t turned out to be so dreamy after all—a groundswell of women (and more than a few men) are choosing to embrace an unusual rebellion: domesticity. A generation of smart, highly educated young people are spending their time knitting, canning jam, baking cupcakes, gardening, and more (and blogging about it, of course), embracing the labor-intensive domestic tasks their mothers and grandmothers eagerly shrugged off. They’re questioning whether regular jobs are truly fulfilling and whether it’s okay to turn away from the ambitions of their parents’ generation. How did this happen? And what does it all mean? In Homeward Bound, acclaimed journalist Emily Matchar takes a long, hard look at both the inspiring appeal and the potential dangers of this trend she calls the New Domesticity, exploring how it could be reshaping the role of women in society and what the consequences may be for all of us. This groundbreaking reporting on the New Domesticity is guaranteed to transform our notions of women in today’s society and add a new layer to the ongoing discussion of whether women can—or should—have it all.
