Abel &amp; Cole’s story starts in 1988 with Keith Abel flogging potatoes door-to-door. ‘Of course potatoes are organic,’ he thought, ‘they’re vegetables’. However, he quickly discovered how unnecessarily complicated our food system had become and, consequently, realised the huge benefits of going organic and never looked back. In fact, Abel &amp; Cole still get veg from the farm where Keith's first organic spuds came from. 
To this day, their priorities remain the same. Now, selling 100% organic produce, Abel &amp; Cole believe that organic farming (a holistic system that encourages biodiversity) is the very best way to go. It protects our countryside and the critters that inhabit it, insists on the very best animal welfare, supports your local community and, frankly, tastes heaps better. Abel &amp; Cole think so anyway.

Dan Gardner

We are the safest humans who ever lived - the statistics prove it. And yet the media tells a different story with its warnings and scare stories. How is it possible that anxiety has become the stuff of daily life? 
 
In this ground-breaking, compulsively readable book, Dan Gardner shows how our flawed strategies for perceiving risk influence our lives, often with unforeseen and sometimes-tragic consequences. He throws light on our paranoia about everything from paedophiles to terrorism and reveals how the most significant threats are actually the mundane risks to which we pay little attention. 
 
Speaking to psychologists and scientists, as well as looking at the influence of the media and politicians, Gardner uncovers one of the central puzzles of our time: why are the safest people in history living in a culture of fear?

Tim Rushby-Smith

Tim Rushby-Smith is six foot two and highly active, with a love of high places and the great outdoors. Three years ago, with a booming garden design and landscaping business and his wife five months pregnant with their first child, Tim fell six metres out of a tree and broke his back, confining him to a wheelchair. 
 
As he came to terms with his injury, treatment and rehabilitation, Tim faced an entirely new life, in which suddenly many of life's simplest tasks became monumental challenges. This is Tim's very human story of learning to live with disability, from overwhelming feelings of anger and despair, to learning how to face the future head on, and watching his daughter take her first steps. 
 
Emotional but never self-pitying, this is his unflinchingly honest account of how he built a new life; as a man, a husband and a father.

Ron Clem

Carren Clem

The Clems were a family living the American dream until their fifteen-year-old daughter Carren became addicted to Meth. Within two months of first taking the highly addictive drug, Carren had moved out of the family home, spent her entire savings on Meth and resorted to stealing, dealing and prostitution to pay for her habit. 
 
Told from both Carren's perspective and from the perspective of her father Ron, Loss of Innocence shares the shocking story of how a middle-class girl growing up in a stable home could get so lost. A former LA police officer, Ron describes how he went back to being a cop to try to rescue his daughter and how he suffered a heart attack in the street when he witnessed Carren selling herself to a drug dealer; Carren shares the events leading up to her first taste of drugs, and her descent into addiction with moving candour and dignity. 
 
Carren is now clean and sober, and in this frank, compelling book she and her family prove that there can be life after drug addiction.

Suzanne Portnoy

Middle-aged single mother and entertainment publicist Suzanne Portnoy leads a double life. Monday to Friday, she's a professional executive devoted to her two adolescent boys. But at weekends she spends her kid-free hours having sex, with a different man each time. Or multiple men. 
 
Picking up where her first book, The Butcher, the Baker, the Candlestick Maker: An Erotic Memoir, left off, this memoir finds Suzanne both confronting the consequences, and enjoying the fruits, of her notoriety as the bestselling author of an erotic memoir. From a coked-up rock star to an uptight millionaire, to a hunky stripper, Suzanne attracts plenty of men wherever she goes, particularly once they learn her identity. 
 
But just when Suzanne grows reconciled to the possibility of never settling down, she meets a man who wants to be more than one of her 'friends.' While debating whether to unload her 'portfolio' of men for the potential one true lover, this most unconventional woman ponders the most conventional question: has she found the fabled Mr Right or will he prove to be just another in a long string of Mr Wrongs?

Niki Flynn

'Wolfgang tied my wrists to the iron beam against the wall. His rough hands were all over me even before Ben had started photographing. His presumption was exhilarating. I struggled, relishing my helplessness as he lifted me from the hips like a dancer and forced me to straddle him. It was a fantasy come true. 
 Suddenly his hand connected sharply with my bottom and I yelped. He shoved me back against the wall and tore my dress open at the front, exposing me. I trembled with excitement, every nerve in my body awake and wildly alive.' 
 
Niki Flynn tells her story in Dances with Werewolves - a real-life Fifty Shades of Grey that dares to go even further. This is a no-holds-barred account from the ultimate submissive - and every word is true.

After her first discovery of her submissive desires as a young girl at college, Niki finds herself addicted to the rush her forbidden fantasies give her, and starts off down a dark, dark path. Her cravings lead her into the secretive underground of taboo film-making. Niki is an instant hit - worldwide. From schoolgirl canings in England to spankings in California, from a Stasi interrogation in Germany to a forced haircut in Prague, Niki can't get enough. But it is when she meets Cameron, her ultimate master, that he unlocks her darkest desire of all...

Stella Black

'We both knew it was up to him to lead. He took his time ... I had never been so consciously vulnerable in my life. And now I had to enter a place where I trusted this man completely. Trusted him not to actually abuse me. Trusted him not to hurt me. 
 
It was a fine line. How would he or I know when to stop? How far would we go now we had started? Would I be in danger? I could already feel the drama of the compulsion to explore...'

Isabel Losada

Fast, hard-hitting, funny and honest, this is the book that answers the question that all women discuss every day: 'Where are the interesting and available men?' Forget the fiction. This is not self help or a dating manual - This is 'Men!' - controversial, sassy and very entertaining - Michael Moore meets real life Bridget Jones. 
Bestselling author Isabel Losada throws herself (literally) into all male environments to learn about how different 'Men!' are from women. From learning to be a plumber and riding a Harley to interviewing psychologists and dating hosts, every page will have readers smiling and learning about 'Men!' and about themselves. How do you define an 'interesting' man? (or women?) How are male and female brains different? What do the richest men in the city and the builders on the building sites want of women? 
This is not a book for women who think that finding a man is the solution to their problems; rather it is an intelligent, controversial and often hilarious journey through modern life and relationships by a unique and well-loved author.

Men!

Forget the fiction! Where are the interesting and available men?

Grant Stoddard

Grant Stoddard left Britain for the States with the clothes on his back, a fascination with all things American, and a burning hope for something bigger. But with no steady job, no money, and no girlfriend, the starry-eyed young Englishman's excitement was shrinking fast. 
Then fate in the guise of an X-rated online contest intervened. Winning first prize -- sexual intercourse with an infamous married sex columnist -- changed everything. With a shot of much needed confidence, the sensitive lad emerged as the mascot of Nerve.com, a gonzo sex columnist who would begrudgingly try any and every lurid thing his co-workers devised. From offering himself up as man-bait at a notoriously hard-core gay bar to attending an elite orgy with a blue-blooded date, Stoddard went where few men dare and lived to tell the tale. 
With a self-deprecating style and wonderful appreciation of the absurd, Working Stiff is a unique coming-of-age story from a very funny and irreverent new writer.

But I know from my own experiences as a mum that providing children with nutritious, tasty and easy-to-make meals - often on a budget - is no easy task. 
That's why I've joined forces with leading nutritionalist Anita Bean to create more than 100 delicious but simple recipes to make your life easier and to help you give your child a healthy and balanced diet. 
There are loads of ideas in this book for feeding babies and toddlers alike, as well as meal planners to take the stress out of feeding your child. For this revised and updated edition we've also come up with lots of fun new ideas for children's party food as well as inspiring suggestions for luchboxes and healthy treats and snacks. 
I hope these recipes will prove as popular with your children as they have with mine.

Lorraine Kelly's Baby and Toddler Eating Plan

Over 100 Healthy, Quick and Easy Recipes

At least one child in five experiences some form of learning difficulty, but: 
* Learning difficulties as we understand them DO NOT exist 
* They are not diseases just symptoms 
* These symptoms never appear alone 
* They are treatable and avoidable 
Dr Robin Pauc, an expert in child neurology, approaches learning difficulties, including Dyslexia, ADD, OCD, ADHD, Dyspraxia and Tourette's syndrome of childhood, from a truly ground-breaking perspective. All human babies are born prematurely and develop special new brain cells four months after birth. Every human's developement in the womb and particularly in these early stages of life can, therefore, be affected by devlepement delay, which can blight childhood and marginalize a child at school. Since our brains continue to grow, however, the symptoms can also be treated. 
Is That My Child? Explains the backround to human developmental delay and contains: 
* Advice on how to get the best assessment for your child and an explanation of what the examination must include 
* The effects - good and bad - of certain foods on the brain 
* Excercises and computer programs that you can use to expand your child's neural function 
* Case histories of children on whom this plan has worked 
In the single biggest breakthorough in the history of learning difficulties, Is That My Child? explains the cause of Development Delay Syndromes, uses simple, easy-to-follow tips to show you how to greatly reduce the risk of your child suffering, and gives advice on what can be done to treat those children that do.
