SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, FLEA! The iconic bassist and co-founder of the Red Hot Chili Peppers tells his fascinating origin story, complete with all the dizzying highs and the gutter lows you'd want from an LA street rat turned world famous rock star. In Acid for the Children, Flea takes readers on a deeply personal and revealing tour of his formative years, spanning from Australia to the New York City suburbs to, finally, Los Angeles. Through hilarious anecdotes, poetical meditations, and occasional flights of fantasy, Flea deftly chronicles the experiences that forged him as an artist, a musician, and a young man. His dreamy, jazz-inflected prose makes the Los Angeles of the 1970s and 80s come to gritty, glorious life, including the potential for fun, danger, mayhem, or inspiration that lurked around every corner. It is here that young Flea, looking to escape a turbulent home, found family in a community of musicians, artists, and junkies who also lived on the fringe. He spent most of his time partying and committing petty crimes. But it was in music where he found a higher meaning, a place to channel his frustration, loneliness, and love. This left him open to the life-changing moment when he and his best friends, soul brothers, and partners-in-mischief came up with the idea to start their own band, which became the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Acid for the Children is the debut of a stunning new literary voice, whose prose is as witty, entertaining, and wildly unpredictable as the author himself. It's a tenderly evocative coming-of-age story and a raucous love letter to the power of music and creativity from one of the most renowned musicians of our time.

The Power Puppies have brought the world back to safety, and Dr. Mittens and Dark Matter Cat are under control in Indiana. All is well… or is it? When a mole named Doug pops up in the cats’ daycare center of torture, they escape and frame the Power Puppies for a terrible crime. Imprisoned in Rome, the Power Puppies seem to have lost all hope until an online support group of super-powered rodents decides to help. In a fur-raising adventure with time travel, plots for world domination, mind control, and the Mona Lisa, the Power Puppies have to face the cats again. Will the members of the Rodent Room give them the boost they need, or will the dogs waste away in prison while Dr. Mittens and Dark Matter Cat roam free?
