Elves are naughty. Troublemakers. Pranksters. Tinkers. But you've never met elves like this. Stanky, Planky, and Cranky are forever causing trouble in the Gibbs' house - and they always get away with it too. However, the Gibbs family has a new pet - a beautiful puppy called Archie - who rumbles the elves' horrible games straight away. So the rotten elves hatch a terrible, stinky plan to get rid of the innocent dog once and for all: The Christmas Poop Plan. It's a plan so evil and foul that it will ruin Christmas for the entire family. However Stanky, Cranky and Planky are about to find out what happens when you are meanies all of the time... The Christmas Poop Plan is a funny Christmas book aimed at children aged between four and eight. Written by bestselling author Martin Smith and his seven-year-old daughter Emily, it is a festive story about hope, being brave, never giving up and ... lots of poop. The story behind The Poop Plan. Martin has cystic fibrosis and wrote the bestselling Charlie Fry Series after retiring from work due to a deterioration in his condition. Emily has always wanted to write a book with her dad - and came up with the characters and plot herself. All Martin did was transform the wonderful ideas into a story for primary school children to be able to enjoy. Why The Christmas Poop Plan? The book was originally called The Christmas Miracle - except that had already been taken. We had the same problem with The Christmas Angel. Yet the book is centred around the elves' dastardly plan to ruin Christmas through poop - so The Christmas Poop Plan seemed the logical choice! Who will the book appeal to? It is aimed at children aged between four and eight. If you like an elf on the shelf with a dose of David Walliams too, then this will be right up your street!

After labor, it’s time for rest: A gentle guide to zuo yuezi, the ancient Chinese practice of postpartum self-care, including sixty simple recipes. The first forty days after the birth of a child offer an essential and fleeting period of rest and recovery for the new mother. Based on Heng Ou’s own postpartum experience with zuo yuezi, a set period of “confinement” in which a woman remains at home focusing on healing and bonding with her baby, The First Forty Days revives the lost art of caring for the mother after birth. As modern mothers are pushed to prematurely “bounce back” after delivering their babies, and are often left alone to face the physical and emotional challenges of this new stage of their lives, the first forty days provide a lifeline—a source of connection, nourishment, and guidance. This book includes sixty simple recipes for healing soups, replenishing meals and snacks, and calming and lactation-boosting teas, all formulated to support the unique needs of the new mother. In addition to recipes, this warm and encouraging guide offers advice on arranging a system of help during the postpartum period, navigating relationship challenges, and honoring the significance of pregnancy and birth. Fully illustrated, it is a practical guide and inspirational read for all new mothers and mothers-to-be—the perfect ally during the first weeks with a new baby. “Bringing our attention back to the importance of the postpartum period for new mothers helps to create space for this essential period of integration and recovery . . . an invaluable companion during the first 40 days and beyond.” —Ricki Lake & Abby Epstein, filmmakers, The Business of Being Born
