Popular imagery of cute animals, adorable children, barbecue iconography for dad, funky florals, and Santas of every stripe grace these pages. A thoughfully wrapped present is a gift in itself, and All Wrapped Up! is the perfect package to celebrate the popular designs of the most visually exuberant decade of all.

THE THREAD OF HAPPINESS
Author: Bill Wilson
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1326876341
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
Bill Wilson is a native of County Durham, now living in Lincolnshire. He has studied in a number of fields including civil engineering, theology, philosophy, psychology, organisation theory, behavioural science and education. He has practiced professionally as a civil engineer; an ordained clergyman; a lecturer in adult higher education specialising in industrial relations; and finally as a Principal of a Further and Higher Education College. Bill's stories about his life are not a simple chronology of events, but rather a recollection of events in, and through which happiness chanced upon him. Bill believes that happiness cannot be engineered but rather emerges unexpectedly - sometimes out of the unlikeliest of happenings. Once recognised however, such moments can be embraced and nurtured, thus opening the way for the recognition of happiness in almost any of life's events. Bill's life-stories are funny and witty, joyous and sad - but always poignant and encouraging.

A Life of Snakes and Ladders
Author: P. Lanquai
Publisher: Authors On Line Ltd
ISBN: 9780755201587
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
The writer's thoughts, feelings, comments, letters, dreams and stories have been recorded over a period of more than twenty years. Through these revelations, one can follow a coarse thread, which has, at times, been broken and tied together again. Written in diary format he touches on sex, religion, astronomy, astrology, birth and death, as well as a whole range of emotions; from anger and hate...to love. Never intending this collection to be read by others, it comes across very intimately, and with a fair amount of humour. This certainly shows how the dice have fallen in his life of Snakes and Ladders.
