Descriere: Set and filmed in and around Holmfirth, West Yorkshire, "Last of the Summer Wine" follows the adventures of three quirky pensioners and their equally unusual neighbors. A true British classic that appeals to all generations, it is Great Britain's longest running comedy program. The line-up of the comedy trio has changed numerous times over the years, but the caliber of the family-friendly humor Roy Clarke creates has remained the same, and it's as funny and eccentric now as it was in the first episodes he wrote over 25 years ago. The book includes: The History: an overview of how "Last of the Summer Wine" was born and developed; Gags and Catchphrases: a collection of classic quotes; Did You Know?: snippets of info about the show, cast, etc.; Favorite scenes: the most memorable scenes in full; and much, much more!

From surviving ever-more apocalyptic hangovers, relationship niggles and endless laundry, to trying to stay healthy when...well... cake .

Matt Groening
Bart Simpson, America's favourite underachiever, lays claim to his own comic collection. In an homage to the comics he enjoyed as a kid (such as Little Lulu and Peanuts), Matt Groening presents stories about Bart and the kids of Springfield with adults taking a backseat as comic foils. Big Book of Bart Simpson features several short stories that can be enjoyed by a younger reading audience, but there are plenty of laughs for kids of all ages. It's good old-fashioned fun with the same satiric edge that has made 'The Simpsons' the most successful animated program in television history.
