What the Animals Tell Me

If you could talk to the animals, what would they say? Here, in the pages of this remarkable book, renowned pet psychic Sonya Fitzpatrick reveals the secrets of the animal world-and teaches you how to learn the telepathic language that animals understand. Dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, and wild animals of every stripe-and spot-all have a story to tell. Pets have unique ways of communicating, often ignored or misunderstood by their human companions-leading to behavioral problems. By relating her own discovery of her telepathic and healing gifts and by sharing the true stories of her "clients," Sonya helps owners get into their pets' minds and uncover the root issues of the most common problems: scratching, chewing, soiling, barking, and more. She also offers messages of hope and healing as she talks to pets from beyond the grave. You'll read the stories of Sparky, a dog whose deliberate accidents pointed to an intense dislike of his owner's new boyfriend...Zuki and Spika, two iguanas Sonya helped to live together in peace...Brass, the horse whose abusive past threatened to destroy his relationship with his new owner...and Magic the cat, whose heart problems were healed by Sonya's techniques-plus incredible true tales of pets lost and found using Sonya's telepathy. Along with practical information on care and feeding, emergency preparedness, illness, moving, and introducing new pets to the household, Sonya shares her seven simple steps to communicating with your pet. You'll gain a deeper understanding, improve your relationship, and even stop behavioral problems before they start. So tune into your own telepathic channel and learn how to talk to the animals-with the Animal Planet's Sonya Fitzpatrick.

Mark Brewer

An Illustrated Dictionary for Beer Lovers

As Mark Brewer explains in his introduction, "Beer is one of the oldest beverages known to man . . . and woman! In fact women were the first brewers since one of their primary responsibilities involved cooking. Years ago beer was considered a food as well as a drink. Beer provided many of the calories needed for one's daily diet. Dating back all the way to the fifth millennium BC, beer was recorded by the ancient Egyptian scribes, who also created an extra hieroglyph specifically for “brewer.” Historians tell us that beer was used as a method to compensate laborers who were building the pyramids. Perhaps more importantly, if an Egyptian man offered a woman a sip of his brew, they were betrothed." Starting with an introduction to the history of beer, this A–Z dictionary takes a humorous looks at the various types of beer and common verbiage associated with it while educating the reader in the process. Covering everything from Abbey to Aging, Hops to Head Retention, and Skunky to Stout, Mark Brewer's Brewology is perfect for beer lovers everywhere. Skyhorse Publishing, along with our Good Books and Arcade imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of cookbooks, including books on juicing, grilling, baking, frying, home brewing and winemaking, slow cookers, and cast iron cooking.

The Anti-Hustle Guide to Grow Your Business and Nourish Your Life

Hustle culture isn't working for women.

If you've ever . . .

 * had too many things to do and not enough time to do them
 * lost focus of your priorities and questioned your lack of motivation or drive
 * believed that if you slowed down, your business would fail and the life you have worked so hard to create would crumble . . .

you're not alone. Entrepreneur, bestselling author, and business coach Jadah Sellner knows what it's like to be burned out, in debt, and just barely holding on to a new business. In the process of launching and building multiple companies, she realized today's aggressive 24/7 hustle culture wasn't working for her--or for her clients.

In She Builds, Sellner shares a new entrepreneurial model for women, centered on sustainable leadership--a practical framework they can use to create a business on their own terms, prioritize their well-being, and break free from the toxic culture that leads to burnout.

She Builds rests on four essential principles of L.O.V.E.:

LEAD: Define "enough" and surround yourself with the support you need to build a business that lasts.

OPTIMIZE: Learn tangible strategies for focusing on what matters to help you and your business thrive.

VISUALIZE: Create a clear yet flexible twelve-month road map that turns your dreams into reality.

EXPAND: Develop a solid foundation for growth and longevity without losing yourself in the process.

Stepping back isn't a failure; it's a strategy. Sellner reminds us that we need to lead with love in life and business, starting with ourselves and moving outward to our families, our teams, our communities, and the customers we serve. Filled with inspiring personal stories, case studies, interactive exercises, and real-world advice, She Builds will help you grow your business and have time to enjoy your life, too.

Sheila Nevins

Like new no wear or tear no damage to the spine, pages or cover 

“Thank you to Sheila Nevins for putting all this down for posterity. Women need this kind of honest excavation of the process of living.” —Meryl Streep An astonishingly frank, funny, poignant book for any woman who wishes they had someone who would say to them, “This happened to me, learn from my mistakes and my successes. Because you don’t get smarter as you get older, you get braver.” Sheila Nevins is the best friend you never knew you had. She is your discreet confidante you can tell any secret to, your sage mentor at work who helps you navigate the often uneven playing field, your wise sister who has “been there, done that,” your hysterical girlfriend whose stories about men will make laugh until you cry. Sheila Nevins is the one person who always tells it like it is. In You Don’t Look Your Age, the famed documentary producer (as President of HBO Documentary Films for over 30 years, Nevins has rightfully been credited with creating the documentary rebirth) finally steps out from behind the camera and takes her place front and center. In these pages you will read about the real life challenges of being a woman in a man's world, what it means to be a working mother, what it’s like to be an older woman in a youth-obsessed culture, the sometimes changing, often sweet truth about marriages, what being a feminist really means, and that you are in good company if your adult children don’t return your phone calls. So come, sit down, make yourself comfortable, (and for some of you, don’t forget the damn reading glasses). You’re in for a treat.

The Education of an Urban Farmer

Urban and rural collide in this wry, inspiring memoir of a woman who turned a vacant lot in downtown Oakland into a thriving farm

Novella Carpenter loves cities-the culture, the crowds, the energy. At the same time, she can't shake the fact that she is the daughter of two back-to-the-land hippies who taught her to love nature and eat vegetables. Ambivalent about repeating her parents' disastrous mistakes, yet drawn to the idea of backyard self-sufficiency, Carpenter decided that it might be possible to have it both ways: a homegrown vegetable plot as well as museums, bars, concerts, and a twenty-four-hour convenience mart mere minutes away. Especially when she moved to a ramshackle house in inner city Oakland and discovered a weed-choked, garbage-strewn abandoned lot next door. She closed her eyes and pictured heirloom tomatoes, a beehive, and a chicken coop.

What started out as a few egg-laying chickens led to turkeys, geese, and ducks. Soon, some rabbits joined the fun, then two three-hundred-pound pigs. And no, these charming and eccentric animals weren't pets; she was a farmer, not a zookeeper. Novella was raising these animals for dinner. Novella Carpenter's corner of downtown Oakland is populated by unforgettable characters. Lana (anal spelled backward, she reminds us) runs a speakeasy across the street and refuses to hurt even a fly, let alone condone raising turkeys for Thanksgiving. Bobby, the homeless man who collects cars and car parts just outside the farm, is an invaluable neighborhood concierge. The turkeys, Harold and Maude, tend to escape on a daily basis to cavort with the prostitutes hanging around just off the highway nearby. Every day on this strange and beautiful farm, urban meets rural in the most surprising ways.

For anyone who has ever grown herbs on their windowsill, tomatoes on their fire escape, or obsessed over the offerings at the local farmers' market, Carpenter's story will capture your heart. And if you've ever considered leaving it all behind to become a farmer outside the city limits, or looked at the abandoned lot next door with a gleam in your eye, consider this both a cautionary tale and a full-throated call to action. Farm City is an unforgettably charming memoir, full of hilarious moments, fascinating farmers' tips, and a great deal of heart. It is also a moving meditation on urban life versus the natural world and what we have given up to live the way we do.
