    Jay Key, Will Tulin, Star Wheel Books

    Audible Audiobook (Star Wheel Books, June 28, 2019)
    Bounty hunters. Ninjas. Anthropomorphic musk oxen from the moons of Gartosh. Welcome to the gut-busting universe of Duke LaGrange! When bounty hunter Duke LaGrange and his oft-inebriated Japanese-Irish ninja companion, Ishiro'shea, entered their favorite watering hole, Cyborg Joe's Grill N' Go & The Why Not Saloon, they had no idea that they would soon be gobbled up by an unhinged astral anomaly and deposited on an uncharted primitive world. Few things are worse than undeveloped planets, especially those that haven't even made it to the soufflé stage. To top it off, this particular planet comes with its own insane ruler and an Orb That Controls Everything and Must Be Respected. The bounty hunting duo will need to navigate a violent rebellion, flying fire-breathing panthers, and mutated swamp cannibals in order to avoid being stranded light years from the nearest well-made martini. How to Pick Up Women with a Drunk Space Ninja is the first book in The Adventures of Duke LaGrange, a series of hilarious sci-fi adventure romps from the creative mind of Jay Key. You are sure to fall in love with Key's menagerie of colorful characters and laugh-out-loud storytelling talents.

  • I Saw An Ostrich In A Chair

    Dolores D. Goldich

    Hardcover (Star Books, Aug. 30, 2005)
    New alphabet book makes L=learning and F=fun. At last, an alphabet book filled with all manner of fanciful ideas and illustrations designed to make learning fun for young readers! For each word there is a rhyme that describes some absurd or fantastical sight which is depicted in a whimsical and imaginative way. For instance, there is a pig flying through a donut hole and a monster driving a truck getting stuck in a traffic jam. Animals are discovered in unlikely places doing unexpected things, and everyday objects perform impossible acts. This book is one alphabetical surprise after another. The introduction and the ending wrap everything together in a little story. This is a great read-aloud book for teachers, parents, grandparents and others who want to spend an entertaining and worthwhile time with young children. It can also delight the child who might read it independently, aided by the illustrations to figure out the text. Although this book is intended for children from two to seven years old, someone older or younger just might take a peek and want to go from A to Z.
