I had a Halloween themed one of these when I was a kid! It was amazing. Let me see if I can find it.

EDIT: I got it mixed up with another book, the Halloween book was "One Halloween Night". The book I think I was thinking of was "Whoo's There? A Bedtime Shadow Book" by Heather Zschock. She has a whole bunch of these books on all sorts of different subjects. They're super neat!

​

EDIT 2: Karen Kaufman Orloff also has a few of these books

If i may suggest something.

Elderly people need to make peace with their ageing process (both physical and mental) and a study of philosophy is the only way. This gives you the big picture in the "grand scheme" of things and you realize that everything is just natural and as they should be. Thus one learns to adapt themselves to the situation instead of being miserable over it. Obviously, this is easier said then done and hence the need for life lessons from a teacher via philosophical study. I have found the following books helpful in this regard;

• On Life and Death by Cicero - Contains the essay "On Old Age".
  
  
• Dialogues and Essays by Seneca - Contains the essays "On the Shortness of Life", "On the Happy Life" and "On the Tranquility of the Mind".
  
  
• Meditations by Marcus Aurelius translated by Gregory Hays

Here you go boss hog: Sketchy Stories: The Sketchbook Art of Kerby Rosanes https://www.amazon.com/dp/1631061755/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_xeANDb8R7KGJ3

Not the same sketchbook, but another one by the same artist


::EDIT:: I have that one and a couple of his coloring books. They are all amazing and an incredible value.

If you haven't already, definitely check out Cary Elwes' book "As you wish...", it's all about The Princess Bride. There are some great stories in there about Andre, including one about some on set flatulence. I recommend the audio version as Mr. Elwes himself reads it.

The unexpected math behind Van Gogh's "Starry Night"

>This fascinating short animation from TED-Ed and Natalya St. Clair, author of The Art of Mental Calculation, explores how “The Starry Night” sheds light on the concept of turbulent flow in fluid dynamics, one of the most complex ideas to explain mathematically and among the hardest for the human mind to grasp.

I do this (not to a professional standard but pretty cool) using a set of plastic rings. Much easier!

There is some truth to it. Read the bookBreakthrough for a more accurate account of exactly what happened. It was pretty dramatic even in reality.

here you go

I had one of these as a kid and absolutely loved it.

It's probably something like Crystal Blue pond colorant. The color helps to keep algae from forming

What of all of this that you are reading is only the last hallucinations of your brain before it ceases to function?

Bonus point: Read Ubik.

Looks like Chameleon Markers:

Lenticular printing.

Got quite a bit of attention when Gallop!, a bestselling kid's book came out in 2007. Fifth image in the slideshow on top is a video explaining more of the process.

Oh honey tell me you know Where's Waldo.

I bought his coloring book :D

It is used as a book cover

OHCM is used extensively by all med school in UK. You can even see FY1 carry them in their coat.

There is a new American version available but I guess it is not used as much as in here.

Not sure of the exact book but these are the same.

Seems to be one the nightlight detective books.

Edit: for the people complaining about the price, check out this redditors series here.

Again, to anyone reading this questioning whether they should continue their education - I point you to these comments.

These are the thoughts of someone who is intellectually bankrupt. I can't imagine the anguish and utter hell you must live in, to be either fully incapable or fully uninterested in learning a bare bones outline of the history of the last century. But then again, they say ignorance is bliss.
