The third title in an innovative series, perfect for budding artists who enjoy hands-on learning Filled with creative, playful activities, This Book Thinks You’re an Artist asks budding artists to imagine their eccentric- artist alter ego before working through seven key topics: observation, drawing, color pattern, design, sculpture, and, crucially, how to steal ideas (Be inspired! Offend the viewer!). Each spread offers a different project—everything you need to make your own work of art inspired by a famous artist or movement in a lighthearted and playful tone. Activities include making a Bruegel circus, playing a Surrealist game, selling a scribble for a million dollars, and painting your face like a Russian Futurist. A section of paper-based crafts at the end of the book even includes a kit to build a viewfinder and make a mini-manifesto book.
This book thinks you're a math genius. So throw away your calculator and dig in! Inside you'll do all sorts of mathematical stuff, but not like anything you've done in your math classes in school. You'll break codes, draw cool patterns, hunt for objects, and get wet feet. There are even portable math lab pages for you to cut out, fold, and play games with. By the end, you'll be an official math genius- and you won't even have added 2 plus 2. MEGA WARNING: You're guaranteed to really like math after reading this book.
Kate, Eddie a Angus sú ohromení obrázkami smrteľných sekier a lesklých mečov vikingov vo svojich knižkách. Keď sú prenesení späť do Škandinávie v roku 991 n.l., musia zistiť, či majú to, čo je potrebné, aby sa sami stali vikingami. Veľký, mohutný viking menom Bjorn zasvätí deti do spôsobov ovládania bojovej sekery, lúpenia a plienenia, a čoskoro sa naučia aj rôzne ďalšie triky, vrátane toho, ako sa pripraviť na plavbu a navigovať po siedmich moriach len s kameňom, ako recitovať neslušné básne a ako zastrašiť nepriateľov ešte pred začiatkom bitky. Hervor, posadnutá štítna panna, je tiež prítomná, aby zdieľala svoje tipy, ako si odniesť pekný výkupné a ako sa dostať do Valhally v posmrtnom živote.
