2012 is
the 100th
anniversary
of the
Titanic!
How to Swear Around the World
Deck Z: The Titanic
By Jason Sacher • Illustrations by Toby Triumph
Unsinkable. Undead • By Chris Pauls and Matt Solomon
This essential phrasebook collects the most colorful, explicit,
and outrageous ways to tell people off in every part of the
world. Featuring dozens of different languages, the sayings
range from everyday swears to family curses to expressions
for X-rated relations with animals. Phonetic pronunciation
is provided so that readers can curse like a native, and handy
illustrations provide visual guides to these foreign exclamations. Perfect for the international traveler who may need
to wish an enemy a painful death, insult a person’s grandmother, or accuse someone’s mother of having intimate
relations with bears in the forest.
Imagine being trapped aboard the doomed Titanic on an
icy Atlantic . . . with the walking dead. This fast-paced thriller
reimagines the historical events of the fateful Titanic voyage
through the lens of zombie mayhem. Captain Edward Smith
and his inner circle desperately try to contain a weaponized
zombie virus smuggled on board with the 2,200 passengers
sailing to New York. Faced with an exploding population
of lumbering, flesh-hungry undead, Smith’s team is forced
into bloody hand-to-hand combat down the narrow halls of
the huge steamer. In its few short days at sea, the majestic
Titanic turns into a Victorian bloodbath, steaming at top
speed toward a cold, blue iceberg. A creepy, tense pageturner, Deck Z will thrill zombie fans and Titanic buffs alike.
Jason Sacher is a Maine-based writer.
Toby Triumph is an illustrator from the north of England, currently
based in London.

True Blood, HBO’s blockbuster paranormal drama, enthralls a diverse audience of

Bar and Grill play a key role in the series, providing sustenance for its human characters, evoking memories of a bygone life for its vampires, and serving as a powerful
symbol for the desires and carnal needs the characters harbor. It’s no wonder so many
fans revel in at-home parties inspired by the food on the series! With recipes from
unforgettable scenes, each entertainingly introduced by True Blood ’s most compelling
characters, these 85 authentic bayou country recipes and 150-plus photos from the
series give fans a big taste of Bon Temps.

F*ck! I’m in My Twenties
K Is for Knifeball
By Emma Koenig
An Alphabet of Terrible Advice • By Avery Monsen and Jory John
Everyone has that moment—the realization that adulthood
has arrived, like a runaway train, and there’s no getting
out of its way. From the hit Tumblr blog of the same name,
F*ck! I’m in My Twenties perfectly captures the new generation currently testing the waters of post-college reality.
Quick-witted and self-deprecating, the author pens irreverent
missives, DIY diagrams, illustrations, and tongue-in-cheek
checklists that chronicle her experience as a twenty-something living in the big city. Including the best of her beloved
blog, plus over 50% new material, this is a perfect humor
impulse buy for anyone who has a love-hate relationship
with their twenties.
From the authors of the breakout bestseller All my friends
are dead. (more than 175,000 copies sold) and in the
humorous vein of Go the F**k to Sleep comes a laugh-outloud collection of bad advice that turns the children’s
alphabet book on its head. Adorable illustrated characters
lead readers down a path of poor decision-making, and
alphabetical, rhyming couplets offer terrible life lessons in
which O is for opening things with your teeth, F is for setting Daddy’s wallet on fire, and R is for Raccoon (but definitely not for rabies). With plenty of playfully disastrous
choices lurking around every corner, this compendium of
black humor may be terrible for actual children, but it’s
perfect for the common-senseless child in all adults.
Emma Koenig is a New York–based actor/singer/writer and
the creator of the blog, fuckiminmy20s.tumblr.com. She is still
waiting for her BFA to pay for itself and is often mistaken for a
high school student.

“Kochilas writes lovingly and
insightfully about her adopted
country.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Like cookbook writers Paula

every lane and alley in a region,
knocking on doors, peeking into
obscure tavernas, and asking
questions.”
—Amanda Hesser
The Country Cooking of Greece
By Diane Kochilas • Photographs by Vassilis Stenos
The Country Cooking of Greece captures all the glory and diversity of Greek cuisine in
one magnum opus from Greece’s greatest culinary authority, Diane Kochilas. More than
250 recipes were drawn from every corner of Greece, from rustic tavernas, Kochilas’
renowned cooking school, and the local artisans and village cooperatives that produce
olive oil and handmade pasta. More than 150 color photographs and vivid sidebars
bring to life Greece’s unique and historical food culture. Seventeen chapters organized
by ingredients such as lamb, herbs, artichokes, and cheese touch down all over Greece’s
dramatic geography of mountains, coastal lands, and fertile alluvial plains. A cookbook
like no other, this ingredient-driven volume at once meets a growing interest in Greek
cooking and serves as a homecoming for all those of Greek descent.
Diane Kochilas is consulting chef at four restaurants, food
columnist for Greece’s largest newspaper, and co-founder of
the Glorious Greek Cooking School on the Greek island of
Ikaria. She divides her time between Ikaria and New York City.
Vassilis Stenos is a food and travel photographer, and

A Kiss Before You Go
You’d Better Not Die or I’ll Kill You
An Illustrated Memoir of Love and Loss • By Danny Gregory
A Caregiver’s Survival Guide to Keeping You in Good Health
and Good Spirits • By Jane Heller
After the loss of his wife in a tragic accident, beloved artist
Danny Gregory chronicled his grief in the medium he knows
best—the pages of his illustrated journals. This intimate
volume reproduces these journal pages in a stirring visual
memoir of Gregory’s journey towards recovery. Uniquely
sincere, and by turns tender, raw, and hopeful, Gregory’s
idiosyncratic text and illustrations capture the darkest and
lightest moments of his “year of magical drawing.” Gregory’s
process reminds us that creative expression offers its own
therapy, and that living each day to its fullest may be as
simple as putting pen to paper. Anyone who has experienced
loss will take solace in this refreshingly candid look at grieving, while art lovers will marvel at the artist’s beautiful celebration of the power of creation.
Bestselling writer Jane Heller thought she’d found her dream
man—until he turned out to be a “frequent flier,” the term
doctors and nurses use to refer to patients who land in the
E.R. more often than the average person goes to Starbucks.
Here, Jane shares her experiences of looking after her
chronically ill partner with Nora Ephron–like wit, and offers
practical guidance for handling it all without drowning. With
advice on staying healthy while caring for a loved one and
learning to communicate with medical staff, plus wisdom
from other caregivers and experts, this is a personal and
invaluable tool kit that also manages to prompt laughter and
inspire. For the more than 65 million caregivers in the US
alone, this book couldn’t be more timely or important.
Danny Gregory is the author of five books, and his illustrations have
appeared in numerous publications. He lives in New York City.
Jane Heller is the author of 13 novels. Jane lives in Santa Barbara,
California, with her husband.

Waffles
We Love Madeleines
Sweet, Savory, Simple
By Dawn Yanagihara • Photographs by Lucy Schaeffer
By Miss Madeleine • Photographs by Antonis Achilleos
Experience the tempting peaks and valleys of buttery,
sweet and savory waffles. This collection of more than
30 mouthwatering recipes—plus a dozen toppings to
sprinkle, spread, drizzle, and otherwise gild the waffle—
includes childhood classics like the basic Buttermilk Waffle
and elegant updates like Ham and Gruyère Waffle Tartines.
Deliciously crunchy and light, these recipes are equally
at home at the breakfast table, in a lunch box, or served
formally at a dinner party. Doll them up with a drizzle of
Bittersweet Chocolate Sauce, sprinkle with fines herbes, or
dress them down (in the best possible way) with simple
pure maple syrup—these delicately crisp, perfectly golden,
and light as air treats are the ultimate in culinary versatility.
The first crowd-sourced cookbook from Chronicle Books,
this celebration of the dainty French delight proves that
classic doesn’t have to mean conventional. Forty reverential
recipes—developed by madeleine lovers from Italy to Oregon
and curated by Miss Madeleine herself—break the mold,
with unexpected delights from Rosemary Parmesan Polenta
to Molasses Spice to Chocolate Hazelnut, plus gluten-free
and vegan options. Featuring expert tips on choosing ingredients, mixing and baking batter, and picking the right pan,
as well as a chapter on glazes, dips, and other toppings,
the wisdom of dozens of aficionados comes together in this
delectable ode to the little shell-shaped cake we love.
Dawn Yanagihara is a cookbook editor, recipe developer, and food
writer. She lives in San Francisco.
Miss Madeleine is a globe-trotting madeleine lover, seeking baking
inspiration wherever she goes. She prefers to remain anonymous
to protect the integrity of her culinary adventures.

A Letter to My Dog
Andy Warhol Drawings
Notes to Our Best Friends • By Robin Layton
This whimsical collection of Andy Warhol’s early drawings
reveals the visual musings of the man before he became the
legend. The relatively unknown experiments in commercial
illustration collected here were created between 1950 and
1960, pre-dating his more famous paintings and prints.
Fanciful, vibrant and bold, these early drawings of fashion,
animals, food, and cherubs display the signature bright
colors, distinctiveness of line, and repetition of unexpected
images that would spark a Pop Art revolution. Beyond demonstrating the playfulness that made Warhol a household
name, these illustrations are a visual treat in their own right.
Interspersed with quintessential Warhol quotations, this
petite volume is a must-have for dedicated Warhol devotees
and a delightful discovery for a new generation of fans.
Dogs know how to talk to us—they do it all the time. A pair
of raised ears or a wagging tail can speak volumes to those
in the know. In this heartfelt ode to the furriest of family
members, dog lovers get the chance to say something back,
sharing personal letters penned to their beloved companions.
With gorgeous accompanying photographs by Robin Layton,
this collection of letters and portraits features a wide range
of dogs and their owners, including everyday people with
remarkable stories as well as celebrities like Hilary Duff,
Tony Bennett, and Oprah Winfrey alongside their pooches.
Throughout, these tales of perseverance, love, and loyalty
celebrate the deep and devoted friendships that humans
share with their pups.
Robin Layton is a Pulitzer Prize–nominated photojournalist.
She lives with her partner and two dogs in Seattle.
Andy Warhol (1928–1987) was one of the twentieth century’s
preeminent artists. Known primarily for his Pop Art, he was also a
highly successful graphic artist in the early years of his career.

The Dust Bowl
An Illustrated History • By Dayton Duncan and Ken Burns
In this riveting chronicle, which accompanies a documentary to be broadcast on PBS
in the fall, Dayton Duncan and Ken Burns capture the profound drama of the American
Dust Bowl of the 1930s. Terrifying photographs of mile-high dust storms, along with firsthand accounts by more than two dozen eyewitnesses, bring to life this heart-wrenching
catastrophe, when a combination of drought, wind, and poor farming practices turned
millions of acres of the Great Plains into a wasteland, killing crops and livestock, threatening the lives of small children, burying homesteaders’ hopes under huge dunes of
dirt. Burns and Duncan collected more than 300 mesmerizing photographs, some never
before published, scoured private letters, government reports, and newspaper articles,
and conducted in-depth interviews to produce a document that may likely be the last
recorded testimony of the generation who lived through this defining decade.
Dayton Duncan is an award-winning filmmaker and author
of numerous bestsellers, including The National Parks:
America’s Best Idea. He lives in New Hampshire.

In this charming illustrated tale, two competing neighbors
begin embellishing their houses, only to find themselves
caught up in a race to build the tallest, most decadent
skyscraper featuring solid gold doors, diamond-encrusted
pillars, grand ballrooms, expensive paintings, live tigers,
and indoor swimming pools—with consequences inevitable, and not. Told with humor and illustrated with
panache, this wry take on an age-old moral will resonate
with readers young and old—particularly architects, contractors, and anyone who’s ever undertaken a remodel.
Germano Zullo is an author and poet who in Geneva, Switzerland.
Albertine has contributed illustration to numerous books and
periodicals. She teaches at the School of Visual Arts in Geneva.
Gem and Stone celebrates 50 different gems ranging from
timeless classics like diamond and emerald to exotic beauties
such as lapis lazuli, peridot, and even petrified wood. Altman’s photographs capture the splendor of each gem alongside brief text highlighting the stones’ chemical makeups,
metaphysical properties, and associated folklore throughout
human history. Hand-drawn illustrations by Heather Smith
Jones and an insightful foreword by mineralogist Thomas W.
Overton round out this lustrous volume. Rock hounds, new age
practitioners, and contemporary decorators and fashionistas
will all delight in this treasure of a book.

The Art and Making of Peanuts Animation
Celebrating Fifty Years of Television Specials • By Charles Solomon
For the first time, this deluxe visual history treats Peanuts fans to an in-depth look at the
art and making of the beloved animated Peanuts specials. From 1965’s original classic
A Charlie Brown Christmas through the 2011 release of Happiness is a Warm Blanket,
animation historian Charles Solomon goes behind the scenes of all 45 films, exploring the
process of bringing a much-loved comic strip to life. The book showcases the creative
development through the years with gorgeous, never-before-seen concept art, and
weaves a rich history based on dozens of interviews with former Peanuts directors, animators, voice talent, and layout artists, as well as current industry folk. Filling a void in animation publishing—there is no other history or art book of the Peanuts specials—this
volume celebrates five decades of the artistry and humor of Charles M. Schultz and the
artists who reimagined the comic for the screen.
Charles Solomon is an animation historian and the author of several books, including The Art of Toy Story 3 and
Enchanted Drawings: The History of Animation. He lives in Los Angeles, California.

“Modern Sauces is my favorite book this year. It is
destined to be a classic reference for the rest of my
cooking life, on one of the most valuable but least
understood facets of cooking: sauces.
Martha Holmberg brings great intelligence and lucid
writing and instructions to the important craft of
sauces. She is both respectful of and illuminating
about classic sauces, innovative in her thinking about
contemporary sauces, and practical in terms of
everyday cooking. This is a great book.”
-Michael Ruhlman
Modern Sauces
Sauce-Making for Everyone • By Martha Holmberg • Photographs by Ellen Silverman
This is the book for cooks who want to take their cooking to a whole new level. Martha
Holmberg was trained at La Varenne and is an award-winning food writer. Her look at this
sometimes-intimidating genre—expressed in clear, short bites of information and through
dozens of process photographs—delivers the skill of great sauce-making to every kind of
cook, from beginners to those more accomplished who wish to expand their repertoire. More
than 100 recipes for sauces range from standards such as béarnaise, hollandaise, and
marinara to modern riffs such as maple-rum sabayon, caramelized onion coulis, and coconut-curry spiked chocolate sauce. An additional 55 recipes use the sauces to their greatest
advantage, beautifying pasta, complementing meat or fish, or elevating a cake to brilliant.
Modern Sauces is both an inspiration and a timeless reference on kitchen technique.
Martha Holmberg is an award-winning food writer who helped launch
La Varenne Cooking School in France and has edited several food publications, including Fine Cooking magazine. She lives in Portland, Oregon.

Stick Man’s Really Bad Day
By Steve Mockus
Stick Man is that guy you see around town but don’t really know very well. Everywhere
you go, there he is, crossing the street, waiting for the bus, issuing warnings about
potential disasters at sea and on land, at the mall and at work. But when he’s not offering advice, what does a day in the life of Stick Man actually look like? This catastrophepacked book uses images derived from real signs to follow a continuous narrative as
Stick Man navigates the perils of a single, hilariously bad day. Everyone has had that
day that just keeps getting worse, but Stick Man’s adventures show readers both what
a bad day really looks like, and that in the end it’s never really quite as bad as it may
seem. It’s the perfect pick-me-up for when life, or a forklift, knocks you down.
Steve Mockus is the author of How to Speak Zombie and

Full Steam Ahead!
The Life and Art of Ward Kimball • By Amid Amidi • Foreword by Brad Bird
“Ward’s the one man who works for me I call a genius,” Walt Disney once noted. Ward
Kimball’s career as an animator and Academy Award–winning director at Disney between the
1930s and the 1970s is legendary, but the work he created outside of the animation studio
was equally fascinating, including building a functioning locomotive in his backyard and
founding an award-winning Dixie land band. With unprecedented access to his personal
archives, celebrated animation historian Amid Amidi unearthed hundreds of never-beforeseen drawings, paintings, comics, letters, and photos, including concept art and stories
from his occasionally turbulent career at Disney. Featuring interviews with dozens of
Ward’s colleagues, relatives, students, and friends, Amidi paints a complex portrait of one
of animation’s most irreverent and influential artists in this definitive must-have biography.
Amid Amidi is the award-winning author of numerous books
about animated filmmaking, including Cartoon Modern:
Style and Design in Fifties Animation. He lives in Brooklyn.

Madeleine Vionnet
By Gérald Guerlais and Daisuke Tsutsumi
By Betty Kirke • Foreword by Issey Miyake
Sketchtravel is an artistic journey unlike any other. No editorial project has ever before brought together as many visual
artists around a common object. Passed between 72 artists
over 5 years and across over 35,000 miles, the Sketchtravel
sketchbook showcases the creativity of artists in numerous
disciplines from around the world. Illustrators, animators,
painters, and more each illustrated a page with their unique
style before passing the book to the next artist. Reflecting a
who’s who of popular contemporary artists, this imaginative
diverse collection of artwork will inspire art lovers with its
scope, diversity, and beauty, much as it did each artist who
contributed a link in its chain.
This “spectacular tribute to a designer of breathtaking
grace and originality” (Threads) is the definitive volume
on the legendary Madeleine Vionnet’s life and work. Now
back in print with a fresh new cover, this reissue marks

“[This is] a book that not only shows you
where the most creative parts of Paris
are, but encourages you to be creative
yourself.”
—from the introduction
Paris
A Guide to the City’s Creative Heart • By Janelle McCulloch
Take a stroll through the real Paris with this beautifully photographed and gorgeously
packaged book. Organized by arrondissement, Paris takes readers through the city’s
most charming streets, revealing best-kept secrets and little gems at every turn: ateliers

fresh flowers, shaded parks, and creative hotspots. Packed with vibrant color photographs that capture the spirit of Paris and packaged as a hefty flexi-bound paperback
with a ribbon page marker, the book is a beautiful object in its own right. The accessible
writing invites readers to dip in and out and provides history and context for each spot
on the journey. Visually rich and totally inspiring, Paris is a treasure for lovers of art,
style, design, food, and, of course, Paris!

Stencil Style 101
An Illustrated Encyclopedia of Fashion
By Chloe Quigley and Daniel Pollock • Illustrations by Kat Macleod
20 Reusable Fashion Stencils with Step-by-Step
Project Instructions • By Ed Roth
Every fashionista worth her Louboutins cares as much about
a book’s outfit as she does about its content. This pursesized encyclopedia dons a cloth cover stamped with shimmering silver foil and a satin-ribbon page marker. Alongside
vibrant illustrations, a team of fashion forecasters defines more
than 285 terms from acid wash to zebra (“fatigues are really
just exhausted clothes”) and answers sartorial quandaries
(“What do I do when I’ve bought a genuine ‘Channel’ handbag in Hong Kong?”). Equally snarky and stylish, this insider’s
guide is sure to be on all of this season’s best-dressed lists.
Stencil Style 101 presents a whole new take on DIY fashion!
Stencil maverick Ed Roth offers 20 stencils perfect for
customizing clothing and accessories. Patterns like argyle,
houndstooth, chevron, leopard print, and polka dots pair
with iconic images such as feathers, buttons, records, and
stars in endless combinations for personalized clothing that
will make heads turn. The book includes 25 step-by-step
projects for stenciling on leather handbags, sneakers, wool
coats, bike helmets, bangles, and so much more! Best of
all, the stencils can be reused—just wipe clean and store
in the handy folder at the back.
Chloe Quigley and Daniel Pollock are the creators of fashion forecaster Michi Girl and are the authors of Like I Give a Frock. They
both live in Australia.
Kat Macleod’s illustrations and collages have appeared in Vogue,
Harper’s Bazaar, and Like I Give a Frock. She lives in Australia.
Ed Roth is a graphic designer and the founder of Stencil1. His iconic
stencils have been praised by many, including Martha Stewart and
the New York Times. He is also the author of Stencil 101, Stencil
101 Decor, and Stencil 201. He lives in Brooklyn, New York.

The Art and Making of ParaNorman
By Jed Alger • Preface by Travis Knight • Forewords by Chris Butler and Sam Fell
From LAIKA, the studio behind the hit film Coraline, comes another marvel of stop-motion
animation and creative storytelling. For ParaNorman, LAIKA’s team of artists and animators
built and brought to life a miniature town, a horde of zombies, and a quirky cast of characters to tell a tale of a boy with spooky talents who must save his hometown from a centuriesold curse. Featuring the amazing and detailed artwork that went into the film’s creation—from
character sketches and concept art to puppets, textiles, set dressing, and 3-D printed facial
models—The Art and Making of ParaNorman goes behind the scenes to explore the exacting, exciting steps that are achieved frame by frame in this newest LAIKA masterpiece.
Jed Alger grew up in New England, in a town not unlike the
one in ParaNorman, minus the zombies. Now he lives and
works in Portland, Oregon.
Travis Knight is LAIKA’s President and CEO as well as lead
animator on LAIKA’s first feature, Coraline, and producer
and lead animator on ParaNorman.
Sam Fell is the director of ParaNorman. Before joining
LAIKA, he wrote and directed Dreamwork’s Flushed Away
and was the director of Universal’s The Tale of Despereaux.
Chris Butler was head of story on LAIKA’s Coraline and is
the writer and director of ParaNorman.

The Where, the Why, and the How
75 Artists Illustrate Wondrous Mysteries of Science • By Jenny Volvovsky, Julia Rothman, and Matt Lamothe
Foreword by David Macaulay
A science book like no other, The Where, the Why, and the How turns loose 75 of today’s
hottest artists onto life’s vast questions, from how we got here to where we are going.
Inside these pages some of the biggest (and smallest) mysteries of the natural world are
explained in essays by real working scientists, which are then illustrated by artists given
free rein to be as literal or as imaginative as they like. The result is a celebration of the
wonder that inspires every new discovery. Featuring work by such contemporary luminaries as Lisa Congdon, Jen Corace, Neil Farber, Susie Ghahremani, Jeremyville, and
many more, this is a work of scientific and artistic exploration to pique the interest of
both the intellectually and imaginatively curious.
Jenny Volvovski, Julia Rothman, and Matt Lamothe are
partners in ALSO, a design firm based in Chicago and
New York that has won numerous awards. Julia is author
of the popular blog Book By Its Cover.

I Could Pee on This
And Other Poems by Cats • By Francesco Marciuliano
Cat lovers will laugh out loud at the quirkiness of their feline friends with these insightful
and curious poems from the singular minds of housecats. In this hilarious book of
tongue-in-cheek poetry, the author of the internationally syndicated comic strip Sally
Forth helps cats unlock their creative potential and explain their odd behavior to ignorant
humans. With titles like “Who Is That on Your Lap?,” “This Is My Chair,” “Kneel Before
Me,” “Nudge,” and “Some of My Best Friends Are Dogs,” the poems collected in
I Could Pee on This perfectly capture the inner workings of the cat psyche. With photos
of the cat authors throughout, this whimsical volume reveals kitties at their wackiest,
and most exasperating (but always lovable).
Francesco Marciuliano is the author of Sally Forth, an internationally syndicated family comic strip that appears
in nearly 800 newspapers around the world (created by Greg Howard). He was also the head writer for the highly
praised PBS children’s series SeeMore’s Playhouse. He lives in New York City.

The Architect Says
The Lost Christmas Gift
Quotes, Quips, and Words of Wisdom • By Laura S. Dushkes
By Andrew Beckham
If there’s anything architects like doing more than designing buildings, it’s talking about architecture. Whether musing about their inspirations, expanding on each other’s
thoughts, or dishing out a clever quip, architects make
good copy. The Architect Says is a colorful compendium of
quotations from more than 100 of history’s most opinionated design minds. Paired on page spreads like guests at a
dinner party—an architect of today might sit next to a contemporary or someone from the eighteenth-century—these
sets of quotes convey a remarkable depth and diversity of
thinking. Alternately wise and amusing, this elegant gem of
a book makes the perfect gift for architects, students, and
anyone curious about the ideas and personalities that have
helped shaped our built world.
Sixty years after his father left to be a mapmaker in the war
in Europe, Emerson Johansson received a package that
had been lost in the mail for decades. An exquisite book,
lovingly handmade by his father, details an extraordinary
adventure they shared together before his departure. In the
mountains on Christmas Eve they found themselves lost in
a blizzard where they are helped by a mysterious silvery
man who does not speak but leaves them a series of gifts
that help them find their way home. The enigmatic man’s
image is not captured in the photographs the boy took with
his camera, pictures he believed, until now, were long lost.
Little did he know that his father had taken the photographs with him to the battlefield and meticulously reconstructed, mapped, and narrated their adventure, revealing
that the curious man in the woods was no stranger, but
somebody well-known to us all.
