Pocket Frida Kahlo Wisdom is an inspiring collection of some of her best quotes on love, style, life, art and more, and celebrates the Mexican icon's immense legacy. "Nothing is worth more than laughter. It is strength to laugh and to abandon oneself, to be light."

The subject I want to know better."

"In late 2004 in Britain, a little, self-published book called The Pocket Book of Patriotism created a publishing sensation in the United Kingdom. Rejected by every major British publisher because "patriotism is an obsolete concept." Written initially for his own three boys, Courtauld was appalled that British children didn't know basic facts of their history and set out to create a simple book that would make his children proud of their heritage. The result, The Pocket Book of Patriotism, is a bare-bones, uniquely British timeline of historic events, with no judgement or padding, brought to life by soul-stirring quotations and placing British history along side the rest of the world in a simple history chart. From Stonehenge 2000 BC to the England rugby team's World Cup triumph in 2003, The Pocket Book of Patriotism contains the essential dates, quotes and speeches of British history." from the publisher.

Queen Latifah is a sensation. At nineteen she was the first female solo rapper to have a major record deal. Four years later she became a top television actress and movie star. Today she is rap music's most enduring female force. But how did a teenager from New Jersey become Queen Latifah and make it to the top of the charts? At once autobiographical and inspirational, LADIES FIRST is the story of a young woman making tough decisions and terrible mistakes - about sex and drugs and about who was real and who wasn't - before she was old enough to drive. It is about the reign of depression that descended on her after her brother's tragic death and how she found a strength within herself when it seemed the world was trying to break her. LADIES FIRST is about being confident and sensual in a big, strong body and about blocking out the junk to let in the good. It is about how anyone - of the poorest means or the richest - can hold her head high in a world of attitude. Full of wisdom and revelations, LADIES FIRST will instill in others the same self-esteem, respect and courage that brought Queen Latifah peace and her independent edge.
