From Home to Home
Maren Greve Enthoven wrote this book to make you feel safe and able when the day comes for you to leave home. From Home to Home is a friendly compendium of the advice and information that helped her survive and enjoy life when she left home. The pages are filled with lots of little secrets that you can hopefully pass down to your generations.
Setting up on your own for the first time can be a wonderful and really exciting experience, but it can also be frightening when you only have yourself to depend on. It is essential reading for boys and girls alike and for their parents’ peace of mind!
Hence, this book is written to help make it easy for you to cope and enjoy this new chapter in your life.

Female Olympic Weightlifters
Not many books are available in the market of the weightlifting world to guide coaches on how to help female weightlifters, and lonely female weightlifters who don’t have a coach. Since I moved to the UK, I have had the chance to coach 1350 young and junior lifters in over 28 schools and my 6 clubs in 5 different London boroughs, of which half of them were female and I learnt how to deal with female lifters and educate myself to give my best knowledge to help them find their best. Since I became chief coach of the Odisha high performance center, I have worked hard to update my knowledge up to the world standard of a coach who deals with 40 lifters at the same time, 24 hours a day. I am still learning and would like to pass on what I learn to others from my 35 years of coaching and lifting experience. I have also written another book about how to coach at weightlifting competitions called How to win Olympic Weightlifting Competition.

Both Legs Down One Knicker
Bob Bond always wanted to draw cowboys and Indians – or, failing that, sci-fi. But his horses looked like aliens, and his aliens looked like they were from another planet.
So he turned to another of his passions: football. At that, he was a little more competent, as the inside pages may show. It’s a collection of match cartoons, caricatures and stories, covering the fifty years following the Second World War...

Birthplaces of Australian Motor Racing
This book records and now preserves the history of Australian motorsport. Huge proportions of it were just on the very edge of being lost.
By the time you have read this book, you will be unbeatable at Australian motor racing trivia around any race campground fire pit or BBQ. You will know what the deadliest day was trackside in this country, the speedway promoter who discovered and named one of Australia’s biggest international rock groups, the most extreme financial car racing venue disaster of all time, why many residential roads have names the people who live there don’t appreciate, and what venue built its own railway station which is still in use today.
You will discover places worth dragging the family off to so you can take photos of rusting artefacts and sprout knowledgeable but boring nostalgic conversations. You’ll also be amazed at some of the historic car racing locations you’ve unknowingly been driving past.
How do you locate old car venues when some were utterly demolished 90 years ago, an industrial complex built on the same spot, which was in turn torn down and replaced with a university, a lake or a multi-storey housing estate?
This roll call of mine started out with two simple questions that most petrol heads in this country ask themselves sooner or later. How many car racing facilities have closed in Australia – and why?£69.99
