The Would You Rather...? series has become a genuine phenomenon, with books, calendars, board games, a DVD hosted by Howie Mandel, and radio shows. Showcasing Justin Heimberg and David Gomberg’s hilariously absurd propositions, this entry is another title designed specifically for young readers. Following the success of Would You Rather...? Gross Out, this new title in the series is the perfect way to get reluctant young readers not just reading, but also talking about what they''ve read as well as laughing out loud! Perfectly appropriate for the ages 8 to 15, yet absolutely in line with the tastelessness they embrace, Would You Rather...? Weird, Wild, and Wacky is one of the weirdest, wildest, and wackiest book written expressly for young readers. Filled with the kind of imaginative, edgy, but family-friendly humor children love, it is a perfect party game or may be enjoyed alone for solitary chuckles.
Girls rule - just ask any teenage girl! And now, there's an edition of Would You Rather...? written especially with the tastes, trends, whims, fads, follies, and cultural icons of young girls in mind. Boldly going where no other title in the series has gone, Would You Rather...? BFF is packed with over 300 burning questions that only a female tween or teen can adequately answer (or possibly even comprehend): Hot Topic or Deb? Chase or Ed? Edward or Jacob? Archuleta or Cook? Abercrombie or Fitch? Eat breakfast or skip breakfast? Ideal for slumber parties or after-school gabfests, the book can also be enjoyed alone or as part of a heart-to-heart with a special friend. Though laugh-out-loud funny, these deceptively silly and simple questions are the perfect way for readers to get to know their friends (even their BFFs), and themselves, a little better.

There are hundreds of online companies that will do your homework for you - at a price. But will they write ANY essay you request? Only the WORST of these horrible companies were employed in the composition of Mindsploitation. A GREAT DEAL of money was wasted ACROSS THE GLOBE to commission what may be the dumbest collection of ridiculous assignments in HUMAN HISTORY.What does it say about our society that we can buy a quick custom eulogy for our grandmother, or pay to have a love poem for a mistress prepared by a stranger at the click of a button? How entitled is a culture that keeps these services afloat? Mindsploitation uses such questions as a launching pad for wildly entertaining comedic exchanges. The 50 assignments in this book hilariously explore self-help, spirituality, family, health, diet, pop culture, love, and more.
The greatest "can you find it" book ever wasn't technologically possible until now. Using MagicView, a proprietary technology for hiding and revealing images in print, readers must follow the clues that appear in this book to know where -- and how -- to place the Spirit Glass decoder to bring unseen images to light. Pressing the clear MagicView lens, here called "The Spirit Glass," over the page and positioning it correctly can reveal up to eight images in one space -- superimposed on each other, but revealed as separate and distinct images when the lens is rotated. In 13 imaginative spreads, readers will use the Spirit Glass to find ten ghosts in a haunted house, seek out nine skeletons hidden in a graveyard, uncover hidden messages in invisible spider webs and much, much more!

At stake is nothing less than the balance between life and death.

Hot on the heels of the first two volumes, "Kendoku: Extreme" shows that when it comes to mind-bendingly difficult logic/arithmetic puzzles, too much is never enough! Combining the logic of Sudoku with the math play of KenKen, Kendoku's rules are simple enough: The puzzles, either 6x6 or 9x9, look like Killer Sudoku games but in addition to numbers, players also must contend with math operators (+ - ) within "fences" on the puzzle. The total at the top left of the fenced area is arrived at by using the operator on all the numbers within the fenced area. The solution is a valid Sudoku solution. But unlike in Killer Sudoku, in Kendoku numbers are allowed to be repeated within a fenced area as long as the result doesn't break the rules for a valid Sudoku.
