Book excerpt: Gross is back and viler than ever! From the author of Oh, Yuck! the perennial bestseller about science with over 610,000 copies in print, comes OH, YIKES!, an illustrated encyclopedia of history’s messiest, dumbest, grossest, wackiest, and weirdest moments. If kids think pus and gas are fun, wait until they hear the lowdown on the real Dracula, samurai, gladiators, guillotines and vomitoriums, pirates, Vikings, witch trials, and the world’s poxiest plagues. Impeccably researched, deliciously wry, and subversively educational (check out the toilet-paper timeline), OH, YIKES! covers people, events, institutions, and really bad ideas, alphabetically from April Fool’s Day to zany Zoos. Here are the Aztecs, sacrificing 250,000 people a year for the gods—and for food. Fearsome Attila the Hun, scourge of the steppes whose spinning eyes terrified his friends and whose mastery of horses terrorized his enemies (how does someone so evil die? Nosebleed!). Saur, the 11th-century dog-king of Norway (and not too bad as kings go). Henry VIII and his marital problems, the story of the Abominable Snowman and the Loch Ness Monster, why sailors in the old days preferred eating in the dark (hint: you can’t see what’s crawling in your food), and the answer to the question, “How did knights in armor go to the bathroom?” Topped off with hundreds of illustrations and photographs along with hands-on activities that bring the past to life, OH, YIKES! puts the juice in history in a way that makes it irresistible.

Book excerpt: Supernatural influencer meets dirty, damaged ice queen. Welcome to Highcragh castle, where monsters enjoy themselves and meet their match, men get rescued by fierce independent women (or men), magic is fuel for love and nothing evil or damaged is ever truly irredeemable. Unapologetically eccentric and charming, Alistair Hexworth knows how to make monsters feel right at home in his gigantic gothic castle nestled in the Stormlandish mountains. The master of Highcragh is a powerful man with lots of responsibilities and friends everywhere, since he’s made it possible for so many supernatural beings to finally meet their true soulmates. But when he sets off one day for a hike in the mountains and gets swallowed up in a snow storm, he’s the one who finds himself in dire need of help. Now, Alistair doesn’t mind being rescued *at all*. Even less so when his saviour is a mysterious mountain creature with a gorgeous voice, a sensuality that rivals his own in creativity, a sharp sense of humour, rare magic, and a heart as impregnable as a fortress. Fiercely independent, Yetty has been burned by love before and hunted by humans. Now, they will do anything to protect their privacy and their secrets. Even if hiding means rejecting destiny’s perfect gift—delicious Alistair Hexworth. It'll take all of Alistair's patience and faith in love to slowly soothe their heart.

It contains agency and compromise, many pairs of silk pyjamas in happy colours, adventures in the snowy mountains, fluid, star-crossed love, enough heat to melt a glacier, a secret baby, mostly British English spelling, and of course, some good old-fashioned gothic castle fun.
