AMBER DUSICK wrote her fi rst blog post at CrappyPictures.com and, wishing she had photos to illustrate her stories, she drew them—late at night, in the dark, while nursing a baby. The pictures were admittedly crappy, but Dusick’s hilarious take on the crappier side of parenting made the blog an overnight success. Dusick lives in Los Angeles with her not-at-all-crappy husband, two sons and two cats.

From the author of PARENTING: ILLUSTRATED WITH CRAPPY PICTURES, hilarious and bawdy anecdotes and illustrations about the sometimes puzzling but always entertaining world of holy matrimony.
MARRIAGE: a topic that will never
cease to prove that human behavior
is utterly perplexing. Minor pet
peeves (leftover toothpaste globs in
the sink: why?), different ideas about
money (or the same bad ideas),
deciphering why dirty clothes are
left on the fl oor (RIGHT NEXT TO
THE LAUNDRY BASKET) and using
sorcery to fi nd time for romance
once kids are in the picture are
all part of creating a harmonious
union.
MARRIAGE: ILLUSTRATED WITH
CRAPPY PICTURES provides a
much-needed laugh at what it’s
like to live with another person’s
hygiene habits, cleaning rituals
(including their ritual of not
cleaning), fi nancial decisions,
cooking quirks and everything else that makes one’s spouse weird and
annoying special and perfect in every way.
• Dusick’s award-winning blog receives high traffi c and has a huge social
media following.
• PARENTING sold extremely well, and MARRIAGE is sure to reach an even wider
audience for couples with and without kids.
• Makes the perfect gift book for any couple, newlyweds and longtime beaus alike.

You know those self-improvement books, the ones that advise you to “drink
more water!” for a perfect complexion or perform a few strategically altered
sit-ups to get “the perfect spring-break bod!”? The ones that don’t even scratch
at the surface of real issues? This isn’t one of them. Young and new adults are
craving voices they can relate to, and that goes for advice on life, too.
Ashley Rickards hasn’t always been the successful and confi dent actress
she is today. Suffering through a very awkward growing-up phase (think
anorexia, lunch tray missiles and anxiety so acute she would throw up in
class), Ashley has learned more than a few helpful tips and tricks. In GET
YOUR SH!T TOGETHER, she shares with readers exactly how she conquered
her insecurities and nagging doubts to accept and love herself. Rickards tells
personal, never-before-revealed stories, and covers:
• Skincare
• Makeup
• Personal fi nance
• Self-esteem
• Relationships
• and much more
Also included are contributions from prominent experts like Deepak Chopra,
dermatologist Dr. Murad, fi nance guru Zac Bissonette and trainer to the stars
Lalo Fuentes, who offer their professional advice and anecdotes throughout.
Combining achingly funny tell-it-like-it-is essays with practical advice, this
book has something for every young woman trying to navigate her way
through all of the messy and confusing parts of life with grace.
From the star of the hit MTV series Awkward, a refreshingly relatable life manual.

Dean McDermott
“Healthy twists on classic comfort foods.”
—Rachael Ray
As a father of fi ve Dean McDermott knows the last
thing any parent needs is to make fi ve meals at dinner
time because every kid wants something different.
Thankfully, Dean has used his skills as a professionally
trained chef to master the art of cooking one dinner for
the whole family.
This gorgeous cookbook features more than 100 easy-
to-make and delicious recipes: a gourmet meal for the
grown-ups and—with a few omissions, adjustments, tips
and tricks—one for the kids, too, so parents don’t have
to cook different dinners for everyone.
• Creative yet accessible and affordable meal ideas will appease every family member and save
parents having to make multiple dishes; THE GOURMET DAD contains tips on how to get kids to
eat healthily and to expand their palates.
• Dean has more than 48,000 Facebook fans and 129,000 Twitter followers, and with his wife, Tori
Spelling, supporting the book on her properties (310,000 Facebook fans and 987,000 Twitter
followers), the reach is even wider.
• Dean and Tori have major celebrity connections, and we have some big-name blurbs from Rachael
Ray, Dylan McDermott and Maria Menounous.

From “Gourmet Dad” Dean McDermott, more than 100 delicious, creative, and easy-to-make recipes for grown-ups—each with tips and twists to make them kid-friendly, too.
“What I love about Dean’s family fare is that it is not dumbed down for kids. These meals and sides and vegetables are fun, interactive, fl avorful and creative.… Dean is clever with dippers for veggies and healthy twists on classic comfort foods that make the dishes more nutritious while introducing kids to a wide range of adult fl avors. The only problem with Dean’s recipes will be choosing which one your family wants to eat fi rst.”
—Rachael Ray

“Dean McDermott…really makes me want to cook and I can barely open a can of soup for my kids.… With Dean’s incredible recipes and salivating dishes I’m tempted to stay in and cast myself as ‘The Gourmet Dad.’”
—Dylan McDermott

“You defi nitely don’t need kids to love the recipes in this book! Dean has mastered the art of cooking and presentation, which makes this a must have for entertaining!”

UNDERDOGS is a collection of inspiring stories about rescued pit bulls from pit
bull advocate and star of Animal Planet’s hit show Pit Bulls & Parolees, Tia Torres.
Torres has devoted her life to proving to the world that pit bulls have nothing
but love to give, and that the stereotypes about their inherent bad behavior
are false. As the owner of the Villalobos Rescue Center in New Orleans, the
largest pit bull facility in the world that sees on average 150 pit bulls a day, Tia
knows more than anyone that it’s because of their easygoing, adaptable and
vulnerable nature that the dogs are so easily taken advantage of, which makes
them so in need of our help, but has also given them a bad rep. UNDERDOGS
proves that, at heart, pit bulls are mushy, sociable, giving companions who are
loyal to their owners and, in fact, make a perfect family pet.
With heartwarming, funny and unexpected stories about Tia’s work and
devotion to rescuing pit bulls—and how pit bulls have helped save human
lives—UNDERDOGS features a mix of untold rescue stories and the best and
most popular stories from Pit Bulls & Parolees, as well as some general facts
about pit bulls, and some prescriptive tips on how to take care of them.
Heartwarming, funny and unexpected stories that prove pit bulls are the most lovable and misunderstood dogs on the block.
Tia Torres
UNDERDOGS Pit Bull Rescue Stories: A Second Chance at Hope
• Torres is the star and creator of Animal Planet’s hit show Pit Bulls & Parolees, which
has just been signed for a sixth season. She has a large and devoted following—
the rescue center, TV show and Torres have over two million Facebook fans.
• Pit bull owners, rescuers and advocates are a strong and vocal group who will
support the publication of a book that will champion their work.
• Books about dogs continue to sell well, and with a huge author platform and
adorable cover, this will appeal to dog lovers far and wide.

• Margo Howard is the daughter of Eppie Lederer, known to the world as Ann Landers,
and was a long-time advice maven herself as the author of two syndicated
columns: “Dear Prudence” and “Dear Margo.”
• “[A] touching memoir…Howard knows how to craft humor from hardship and offers
plenty of her signature advice along the way.” —Publishers Weekly
• With Eat, Drink & Remarry Margo Howard doubles down on the style and wit of Nora
Ephron. Read this book, laugh out loud and you’ll agree.” —Kitty Kelley
Margo Howard was an unlikely candidate to rack up a quartet of husbands.
The beloved only child of Eppie Lederer (known to the world as Ann Landers),
she had no shortage of available relationship advice. And yet, somehow, she
wandered in and out of three marriages in as many decades before fi nally
fi nding love and commitment with Mr. Right #4.
EAT, DRINK & REMARRY explores—with great wit, warmth and plenty
of name-dropping—not only the four marriages and three divorces of
Margo Howard, but also the universal themes of love, commitment,
sacrifi ce and acceptance that we all grapple with every day of our own lives.
Readers will take away from this book Margo’s observations and lessons on
relationships and will surely feel better about their own missteps.
From long-time journalist and advice columnist Margo Howard, a candid, often funny memoir about her marriages, divorces and starting over…and over…until it’s just right.
