If any single, universal truth binds the brotherhood of man, it is this: Kids love hitting targets. Or at least aiming for them. The video game industry owes its existence to this reality - but the virtual world pales in comparison to the satisfying real-life THONK! of a palpable hit. Celebrate that shoot-''em-up energy with Coin Blasters, a collection of competitive table-top target games in a book. The coin blasters themselves are sturdy plastic chutes we''ve painstakingly custom-molded to hold a coin steady and upright on its edge. With a simple flick of a finger, and a smidgen of practice, anyone can send that coin zooming with surprising speed and accuracy straight at the target. And what targets! The book is full of awesome paper engineering, resulting in a wide array of games. Take slap shots at a hockey goalie, shoot baskets at the Hot Shot Blaster Hoop, knock the teeth out of a monster''s mouth, flick a nickel field foal, and rescue pennies from a well-protected, uber-fortified, piggy bank prison. Ten different games test your coin-blasting mastery and let you dominate the kitchen table. Now that''s how you manage your money.

It is these feelings, these questions, and the many emotions stirred throughout life that this author brings to life in this book.

She conveys her love for friends and family using words to paint a picture of their special place in her heart. She invites others to use and adapt these poems to their life and share them with their own loved ones. What happens when the desire goes unanswered or the source for the energy are removed? What happens when things get mixed up and misconstrued? Do the connections fray? Is the electricity gone? Explore these thoughts through verse.

This book is crammed with questions you''ve never thought of before. Amazingly, you already know all the right answers. That''s because every question on every page is about you. And nobody is a bigger expert on you than you. What About You? features 20 different surveys for tween girls to take and share with friends. Subjects range from food to fashion to friendship to the monumental Love, Crushes, & Stuff. Some of the questions are seriously thought-provoking, some are just plain silly, and all of them center on the most spellbinding subject in the world: you. The book itself is a functional three-ring binder, with a generous notepad of response forms mounted on the inside back cover. Writing on the response forms, not the book pages, means the same survey can be taken over and over again, by you, by your friends, by your family -- basically, anyone who is willing to share too much information. And using the translucent, glittery, bendy pencil makes answering the wacky questions even more fun... like that''s even possible.

A write-right-in-it book to share with your friends. A Canadian Toy Testing Council 3-Star Award winner! A while back, we published a little book called It''s All About Me, a collection of personality quizzes for girls. Clearly we hit a sweet spot because today, half a million copies later, that book is still going strong. And now it''s getting a new best friend. It''s All About Us is a journal of super-nosey surveys for girls to fill out right in the book. Subjects range from food to fashion to friendship to the very tween "total randomosity." More than 300 different questions reveal everything you never thought to ask yourself, let alone anyone else. Since everything is better when you share, each survey is repeated three times, in three different colorways. Once you''ve taken a survey, turn the page and pass the journal and its matching pen to a friend. Or a relative. Or a brand-new acquaintance. Basically, anyone willing to share just a little too much information. Then compare results. The beauty of it is, even if the answers are different, everyone will still be right. Especially you. Previously published as What About You?

Barriers to inspiration. Barriers to communication. Barriers to movement and achievement. Barriers that can be passed in one direction only. Many poems in Past the Barrier cross a dividing line of one sort or another. Settings range from the neighbourhood and bush to the ancient world and outer space, taking in a few lost years in Europe along the way. Various poetic forms are explored. Grounded in the poetry of the everyday, the poems display underlying preoccupations: utopia, dystopia and apocalypse; memory, grief and time. Some suggest that the barrier between the living and the dead may be more porous than it seems.

Mom taught me many valuable lessons, some of them having to do with daily tasks, some about relating to others, some about being self-determined and others just for fun. She was one of the most efficient and independent people I have ever known. She set the example for me about living and ultimately about dying. In her final years, she presented a strong front as that same woman who instructed us, disciplined us, and cared for us when we were young, began to lose her memory. This proud and capable woman was a victim of Alzheimer''s. The tables turned and this strong, independent woman was forced to become dependent in her final years.
