Ryan C: ECHOES OF IRELAND

ECHOES OF IRELAND

With these 60+ creepy-cute coloring templates, escape to a world of magical forests where ghosts, skeletons, gnomes, jack-o-lanterns, and more await your colorful interpretations. Creepy-cute is a type of illustration born from a Japanese art trend called “kimo-kawaii” that loosely translates to art that is both charming and disturbing; and nobody knows delightful and spooky better than artist Kitty Willow (@wobblywillows), whose adorably haunting, family-friendly illustrations fill Sweet &amp; Creepy Coloring. Perfect for connecting with your supernatural side at Halloween and throughout the year, each coloring design is steeped in mystery, with fairy-like dwellings and eerie yet inviting creatures going about their enchanted lives; all they need is your inspired color choices and artistic intuition. Whether you are an adult or a child, or somewhere in between, press pause on reality and instead: <ul><li>Attend a ghost’s magical birthday party</li><li>Gaze at a star-filled sky with a chatty snail</li><li>Finally meet that Frog Prince</li><li>Chase butterflies with a winged fox</li></ul> As you add color to the sweet, otherworldly images, enjoy the well-known benefits of coloring: reduced stress, improved focus and mindfulness, and boosted creativity. Remove your finished pieces for framing or turn them over to find intricate patterns on the reverse sides for even more coloring time. So grab your pencils, markers, and crayons and start your fantasy journey through all things sweet and creepy.

Over 60 Enchanting Images of Ghosts, Witches, and Cozy Haunted Places

"Excellent."--Steven Poole, The Wall Street Journal - "Terrific."--Liz Else, New Scientist (Best Popular Science Books of 2025 So Far) - "A brilliant overview of the state of modern cosmology."--Alex O'Connor, alexoconnor.com - "This will expand readers' minds."--Publishers Weekly - One of Smithsonian's Ten Best Science Books of 2025 "An intellectual feast."--Carlo Rovelli - "A must-read."--Sabine Hossenfelder - "Wonderfully broad and open-minded."--Roger Penrose - "Remarkable."--Brian Keating A thrilling exploration of competing cosmological origin stories, comparing new scientific ideas that upend our very notions of space, time, and reality. By most popular accounts, the universe started with a bang some 13.8 billion years ago. But what happened before the Big Bang? And how do we know it happened at all? Here prominent cosmologist Niayesh Afshordi and science communicator Phil Halper offer a tour of the peculiar possibilities: bouncing and cyclic universes, time loops, creations from nothing, multiverses, black hole births, string theories, and holograms. Along the way, they offer both a call for new physics and a riveting story of scientific debate. Incorporating insights from Afshordi's cutting-edge research and Halper's original interviews with scientists like Stephen Hawking, Roger Penrose, and Alan Guth, Battle of the Big Bang compares these models for the origin of our origins, showing each theory's strengths and weaknesses and explaining new attempts to test these notions. Battle of the Big Bang is a tale of rivalries and intrigue, of clashes of ideas that have raged from Greek antiquity to the present day over whether the universe is eternal or had a beginning, whether it is unique or one of many. But most of all, Afshordi and Halper show that this search is filled with wonder, discovery, and community--all essential for remembering a forgotten cosmic past.

'Wonderful. A fresh and lively take on a well-known tale' The Times 'Richly drawn . . . There's pomp and splendour in Solomons' sensuous tale, which is lush with exquisite places, heady scents, gold and glory, but . . .also the harsh reality of death and bloody betrayal' Daily Mail 'Vibrant and enthralling. A glorious retelling of one of the most misrepresented female figures in history' Platinum magazine 'The fabled Egyptian queen bursts into fierce and complex life' Caroline Lea 'Vivid and compelling' Anya Bergman 'Shows us the true Cleopatra in all of her pride and glory' Luna McNamara 'As glorious and enthralling as its heroine' Naomi Kelsey 'A dazzling tale writhing with tension like a desert snake' Rachel Louise Driscol 'Thrilling. . . brings the ancient world vividly to life' Cathryn Kemp 'Solomons breathes life into the myth. Gripping' Elizabeth Lee From the international bestselling author comes an unmissable new retelling of the life of one of the most captivating and misrepresented female figures in history. Cleopatra, Egyptian Princess, grows up the favoured daughter of the Pharoah, hiding amongst the scrolls in the great library of Alexandria with her beloved slave Charmian, longing for the chance one day to write her own story. Then when her father dies, willing that Cleopatra rule with her selfish brother Ptolemy, danger stirs. As the young Egyptian Queen sails the Nile to greet her people, he plots to destroy her and take the throne for himself. But while Ptolemy has the power of Egypt behind him, Cleopatra has her wits. And when the great Caesar arrives from Rome, she realises he could be the key to her salvation - though courting this powerful man could cost her everything. Can Cleopatra save her life, her throne, her beloved Egypt and finally command her own history? A powerful, unmissable new retelling, this is a captivating story of female power and vulnerability, of love and loss, fierce friendship and terrible betrayal. It's time to meet the real Cleopatra. READER REVIEWS ***** "I was absolutely bewitched" ***** "This book was both intimate and refreshing, vivid. I felt both the sticky heat of Egypt, and the cool breeze of the Queen's apartments at night." ***** "10/10 a much needed exploration into one of the most infamous women in ancient history" ***** "It shows her not so much as the beautiful seductress we see in other stories but clever and young ruler, and later mother. I liked seeing her grow as a person and ruler, but what I enjoyed most was her relationship with her slave and companion, it added a vulnerable side to her character that we rarely see." ***** "Solomon's gift is to immerse you in an immediately believable world and to connect you with character from the start. I found myself constantly wanting to check details reading Cleopatra, fascinated by the woman coming alive before me." ***** "I raced through the final section, heart wrung for the women whose story is forgotten in the plays. Just brilliant!" , heart wrung for the women whose story is forgotten in the plays. Just brilliant!"

Stop running toward someone else’s definition of success, and start intentionally shaping your own. This prequel to Aesop’s famous tortoise and hare fable shows exhausted professionals how to shift from chasing external validation to creating internal meaning and alignment. Stop chasing visibility. Start creating meaning. In today’s high-pressure workplace, professionals are depleted from constantly proving themselves to others—yet struggling to find genuine satisfaction in their work. What if the breakthrough isn’t working harder within the system but instead reimagining what success means to you? Stop Chasing, Start Creating reveals the untold story of Tano the tortoise before his famous race with the hare. In this prequel to the beloved Aesop’s fable, we discover that Tano wasn’t always the steady, purposeful creature we know. He once chased visibility, approval, and validation just like the rest of us—until a moment of awakening changed everything. Through Tano’s journey from external pressure to internal clarity, readers discover the crucial difference between chasing meaning and creating it. Grounded in motivation science, this framework shifts professionals from extrinsic motivation (external rewards, recognition, and belonging) to intrinsic motivation (purpose, contribution, and alignment). Perfect for burned-out professionals in healthcare, education, nonprofit management, and other purpose-driven fields, this story-first approach offers the metaphor-rich reflection modern workers crave without feeling like another productivity manual.

A Timeless Fable on Mindset, Resilience, and Meaningful Work

Stop Chasing, Start Creating

Libri Historici

Indulge in this collection of the best astronomy books from the past 800 years. The Astronomers' Library is a rich history of astronomy (and astrology) publishing across Europe. This is a carefully selected arrangement of publications from all over the continent – Germany, France, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, and the UK. And of course, as the original world leader in astrology, the middle east is featured, with multiple books from Persia. Humankind has looked to the heavens since the dawn of time, wondering what is out there, as well as how everything works and (originally) who was responsible for it. Every tribe, race and civilization has wondered about our place in the universe and what lies beyond and what lies within it, below our feet. Lately, attention has turned to the origins of the universe. From the turn of the millennium, knowledge and ideas were recorded, first on tablets or rock, then in the form of simple manuscripts, and eventually in a much more elaborate fashion as illustrative and engraving skills evolved. The advent of printed books saw the production of highly illustrated tomes that showed off the skills of the printers as well as the newfound knowledge of the scholars and artists that wrote them. Many of these works pushed the boundaries of illustrated publishing (and continue to do so to this day). They commanded expert illustrators and skilled engravers and hence didn’t come cheaply. They were treasured in the libraries of the wealthy and their intrinsic worth has meant that there is an incredible wealth of beautifully preserved historic examples from the 14th century onwards. The significant difference we acknowledge today between astronomy and astrology has a relatively recent past, and the stars have long been associated with creatures, gods, characters and all sorts of divine beings. The study of such has a long, fascinating history that is shown in beautiful detail in the pages of these many beautiful books, and the transition from seeing the stars as characters to understanding them as spinning, celestial beings and part of our huge universe is akin to witnessing the history of the world. As far back as the tenth century, Persian scholars such as Abd al-Rahman al-Sufi was recording his findings, observations and speculations on the wider universe, in his Book of Fixed Stars. The focus turned to Europe in the Middle Ages, with Germany, Holland and England the centres of study and publication. Following the “Copernican Revolution”, observation and study underwent a radical change, paving the way for astronomers such as Kepler, Galilei and Newton to shed further light on the nature of the planets and stars of our known systems, and the ground beneath our feet. Each of those famous names contribute to the illustrated books that are featured within.

Ancient Wisdom for Modern Readers

A new translation of the Buddha's teachings on mindfulness-and how it can help us to be less controlled by our emotionsTo feel is to suffer. But do we have to suffer as much as we do? Twenty-five-hundred years ago, the Buddha discovered that practices of mindfully observing our feelings and emotions can help us gain some distance from them. In How to Feel, Maria Heim provides new translations of essential early Buddhist teachings on mindfulness meditation and connects them to recent findings in psychology and neuroscience. A superb meditation manual and insightful exploration of psychology, the book also provides a brief introduction to Buddhism and features the original Pali-language texts on facing pages. Drawing from the Samyutta Nikaya, an early canonical collection, How to Feel introduces Buddhist practices of mindfulness. Using them, we can watch feelings come and go like winds passing through the sky. We can observe what causes our negative emotions and learn to shift our attention to other things. We can see where emotions lead us and learn to redirect them. We will still feel, but, with practice, emotions will have less control over us. Just as they did in ancient India, the teachings in How to Feel offer today's readers radically new and more enlightened ways to experience emotions.
