Separation anxiety : a novel / by Zigman, Laura,author.;
Judy never intended to start wearing the dog. But when she stumbled across her son Teddy's old baby sling during a halfhearted basement cleaning, something in her snapped. So: the dog went into the sling, Judy felt connected to another living being, and she's repeated the process every day since. Life hasn't gone according to Judy's plan. Her career as a children's book author offered a glimpse of success before taking an embarrassing nose dive. Teddy, now a teenager, treats her with some combination of mortification and indifference. Her best friend is dying. And her husband, Gary, has become a pot-addled professional "snackologist" who she can't afford to divorce. On top of it all, she has a painfully ironic job writing articles for a self-help website-- a poor fit for someone seemingly incapable of helping herself.

Cedric WilliamsOriginally produced by Vooks in 2021.We all know cleaning up dino poo in the backyard is no fun—and dino diapers are way too stinky to be an option. So, how do you potty train a dinosaur? First, you need to find a toilet that’s their size. Then, you have to teach them to know when it’s time to go. You might even have to set them on the potty every so often until they learn.Wiping, flushing, and washing their claws are all a part of the process. Sometimes, a dinosaur won’t want to take a break from playing to use the toilet. Sometimes, there’ll be accidents. But with a little help and encouragement, they’ll get the hang of it eventually. Right?HOW TO POTTY TRAIN A DINOSAUR is a simple overview of—and playful take on—the basics of potty training. By putting the focus on a dinosaur instead of the reader, the story places children on the same side as the adults, making the discussion more approachable. Written and illustrated by Alycia Pace.

But from the moment Jodie steps aboard her new home, it's clear she'll struggle to keep herself to herself. If it isn't Marilyn, who cleans for Bill and is under strict instructions to look after Jodie, then it's Ned, the noisy sculptor on the next-door houseboat. Ned's wood carving is hard on the ears, but it's made up for by the fact that he's rather easy on the eyes. Bustled out of the boat by Marilyn and encouraged to explore with Ned, Jodie soon delights in her newfound freedom. But out of mind isn't out of sight, and when her old life comes knocking Jodie is forced to face reality. Will she answer the call or choose a life filled with summer days and sea breezes?
