Books for your favorite Bibliophile

So, it's Valentine's Day weekend. You have plenty of time for last minute shopping since this romantic holiday falls on a Tuesday this year.


Jewelry might not appeal to your special someone and roses don't last very long. Chocolate is good for any occasion, but accompany that with a special book (with a hand-written note inside) and you've got yourself a real present!


Pick up a copy of one of these titles at your favorite bookstore, or better yet, add them to your cart through our online store and save yourself the headache of having to hit the mall this weekend.

The Kiss: A Celebration


by B.J. Gallegher

You can also pre-order this fun, new book for your significant other, if you're fairly confident their sense of humor can handle it. 

In the green suburbs, tucked away in bed, are two parents.
Goodnight husband, goodnight wife.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Make Art Not War

John Lennon is an artist that continues to influence musicians and artists. In his book of illustrated art he created with and for his son, Sean, we see another side of John as his playful and creative genius shines through in the fun and quirky drawings that are captured in this collection.

Real love means different things to different people but for this father and son, their shared love for art and nature are expressed on every page of this colorful book for kids, and the parents who love them.

Advice from the World's Wisest Women

Whether searching for inspiration or a chance to commiserate with someone who understands, women continue to give one another advice just as often as they support their girlfriends through the rough times and celebrate the good.

Pick up a glass of champagne and toast the girlfriends in your life - you know who they are - the ones who offer advice when you need it most, even if you never asked for their opinion!

In The World's Best Advice from the World's Wisest Women, BJ Gallagher compiles quotes from powerful, successful and humorous ladies that continue to inspire females at every stage of their lives.

With Valentine's Day coming up, we thought we'd share some quotes from the chapter on Love & Marriage to remind you what this February holiday is all about.
"The ultimate test of a relationship is to disagree but to hold hands." - Alexandria Penney, author

"Love is a fire, but whether it is going to warm your hearth or burn down your house, you can never tell." - Joan Crawford, actress

Iconic Kisses from History, Cinema and Pop Culture

The demonstrative kiss, the beguiling kiss, the scandalous kiss, the ancient kiss, the royal kiss... They're all included in our forthcoming book, available in early January - giving you plenty of time to pick up a copy for Valentine's Day!

Iconic images from history, cinema and popular culture are compiled in this small little book in a celebration of The Kiss, including the famous balcony kiss between William & Kate on their wedding day.

With fun quotes and photographs of lip-locked couples and images dating back to 480 B.C. this book is truly a history book that will put a smile on your lips and will probably get you in the mood to share an intimate moment with your special someone.

Scenes from many of the AFI's list of 100 Greatest Love Stories of all Time can be found inside this little book, including Gone With the Wind, Casablanca, Ghost, From Here to Eternity, Shakespeare in Love, and many more from TV and other great works of art.

 "Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves." - Albert Einstein
