In a world where The Simpsons and Futurama are as popular as ever, these hellish cartoons featuring Matt Groening's zany brand of comic genius are simply gold dust.

Do our dogs experience the equivalent of infancy and puberty? Do they go through terrible teens or struggle with mid-life crises? And what can we do to ensure they take each step in their stride? Best-selling author Jan Fennell leads us through the key stages of a dog's development by uniquely defining the seven ages of man's best friend. All owners know their dogs pass through distinct, often dramatic phases during their life. But what are those phases? In a fresh, new approach to the subject, Jan charts the dog's life from the buoyant, boundless energy of the Puppy and the Pioneer, through the troublesome teens that are the ages of the Playboy and the Protege and the difficult middle years of the Pretender and the Protector to the twilight years of the Pensioner. The book is also a comprehensive guide to coping with the problems that crop up at particular times in a dog's development -- from toilet training and vaccinations, to puberty and parenthood. In The Dog Listener, Jan Fennell changed the way we think about our dogs. Now, in her most important book since, Jan once more challenges conventional thinking to put forward an alternative view of the dog's world. It is a book dog owners everywhere will want to read -- then keep close to hand for years afterwards.

<p>Show that special someone how much they truly mean to you. Gurgle the sweet language of Love into their ear, then present them with this book so that they can figure out why you are talking Martian. We all know what difficult it can be when you try to tell that special someone how much they mean to you. Gestures filled with love and romance somehow always ends up a bit of an embarrassment. You buy lilies when you know they remind your girlfriend of death. You cook a delicious peanut curry for the boyfriend with nut allergies. And you can that whilst you meant this day to be the day you told them those three magic words, all you'll be able to muster are some not very romantic four letter ones. Vimrod is here to say all those romantic things you've been desperate to say but just couldn't find the right way to say them. I'm so in love with you. Let's fly to the moon and back (we can stop for a quick pee though if you need one) I wanna hug ya, like do donut hugs da hole in da don</p>

No wonder you want to show how much you love and appreciate him with this irreverent and devilishly cheeky collection.He's called 'Daddy' when you're little or when you want something very expensive; 'Father' when you get older and are trying to be condescending; 'Pop' or 'Granddad' when you get kids of your own, and *?!@ when he says the forbidden phrase 'You're not going out like that!' But deep down, he's always the same old Dad.Show the most special man in the world how much you love, appreciate and respect him with a collection of funny and profound illustrations.dad, you're the best. When I'm old I want to doeverything the way you do it,except the way you eat, the way you dance,and some of your opinions are, well,crap.Simple but bold illustrations with bright and cheery colours make this the perfect gift for the man with the bottomless wallet and the hairless head (aka Dad).
