The Elusive
The Adventures of Sally Bang charts an unruly anti-heroine’s coming of age, and a ghost writer’s need to possess her. At sixteen there’s insight and beauty that never come again, and within every adult is a wish to get it back. What is gained and lost with growing up, and whose story is it anyway? Commitment ensnares a standoffish narrator in relationship dilemmas, in a psychologic navel-gaze in cliffhanger style on the elusive as romance, the tango of intimacy and distance, conformism and the irrational. In Search of Francesca Mars exposes an artist’s vision of a self-immolating media star who tilts at strange liberation, who toys with all who need to put her on a pedestal or drag her down. A close-skinned portrayal of ambition and use, the politics of giving, glamour and ugliness, the artifice of art, the problem of value. Innocence asks, who doesn’t want innocence, no matter how obtuse the path? Dancer Libby Castro submits to demanding and needy people: husband, employer, spiritual mentor, analyst. Yet beyond insouciant roles and lazy vacancies she’ll be no-one’s shadow: a straw, a girl unmarked, woman alone…
Magic Diamonds
Hello! My name is Frank Schroeder. I would like to introduce you to my new interactive coloring book called “ Magic Diamonds.” Now you are probably thinking this is just another coloring book. If you are you are in for a surprise! Most all coloring books on the market today have the same thing in common. Once you color the page the activity is over and there is nothing left to do. With my book the picture on the page is colored, then it is folded up and an action area is cut out and then the picture is animated by rubbing the paper. You animate the colored page! It becomes a paper video toy and You animate the colored page! It becomes a paper video toy and You are the animators! But the fun is just beginning! The next series of pages in the book after you color them can be inflated and blown up like a balloon. Then when you look inside your paper balloon your 2 dimensional picture has magically turned into a 3 dimensional scene! That’s what is intriguing about “Magic Diamonds.” They are a simple combination of origami, coloring and animation. It’s “origami with a twist.” Kids and adults can have the fun of coloring it and then animating it into a “colorigami toy.”

What do teachers really think about the children in their class? What would they actually love to say to the stroppy parent or the headteacher from hell? For Adrian Gray landing his first job at leafy Green Acre Primary School seems like the dream ticket, especially with Rachel, the gorgeous Reception Class teacher, just waiting to be swept off her feet. But then he finds out that he's to teach Year 6, who are ready to pounce on his every mistake. With traumas such as an OFSTED inspection awaiting him, and the hideous prospect of having to teach sex education to a bunch of pre-pubescents, Adrian soon realises that he's going to have to wise up, if he's to survive his first class....
