PARENTING ADVICE TO IGNORE
IN ART AND LIFE
By Nicole Tersigni • Foreword by Glenn Boozan
From the author of the hit Men to Avoid in Art and Life and
Friends to Keep in Art and Life comes a collection of all-too-
familiar unsolicited advice parents receive on the daily. From
in-laws and other parents to complete strangers and even your
own kids—when it comes to parenting, everyone’s a critic.
Against the classic backdrop of fine art, bestselling author
Nicole Tersigni’s Parenting Advice to Ignore in Art and Life pokes
fun at the many “experts” who think they know more than you
about your own children. Utterly (and unfortunately) relatable
and hilarious as ever, Tersigni’s spot-on captions provide a
much-needed laugh for anyone who has had the pleasure of
parenting and the pain of having a stranger tell you to put a hat
on your baby.
NICOLE TERSIGNI is a comedic writer experienced in improv comedy

and women’s advocacy. She lives in Detroit.

Love Poems by Cats • By Francesco Marciuliano
From the author of the beloved I Could Pee on This series comes
a new book of hilarious love poems from cats to their people.
Cats have so many ways to say “I love you.” Sometimes it’s a

offered in tribute. And sometimes, it’s expressed in that deepest
of cat love languages: poetry. The author of the internationally
bestselling series of tongue-in-cheek poetry helps cats put paw
to keyboard to express the depth of their feline feelings in odes
to breakfasts (on time, please!), ripped-up rugs (it’s a sign of
affection!), the importance of keeping watch in the bathroom,
and the perfect cardboard box that the expensive and totally
ignored new cat bed arrived in. Illustrated by adorable and goofy FRANCESCO MARCIULIANO is the author of the bestselling I Could

A Victorian Woman’s Illustrated Field Notes
By M. F. Lewis • Foreword by Patricia Ononiwu
Kaishian, PhD
This one-of-a-kind, keepsake volume celebrates the timeless

fascination of fungi. Very little is known about pioneering female
mycologist M. F. Lewis—not even her first name. Mysterious,

she left us a treasure trove of mycological illustrations. For over
40 years, from 1860 to 1902, Lewis rambled across England and
Wales, recording an astonishing biodiversity of fungi. Her
delicately drawn, boldly colored images evoke the strange
and powerful beauty of this kingdom. This handsome volume
collects hundreds of Lewis’s watercolors, contextualized by M. F. LEWIS was a mycologist who recorded fungi across England

INTRODUCTION
o much has already been written about colour – the science, the theory
and how to use it in our homes. The dos and don’ts come from interior
experts far and wide (sometimes myself included) in the often-asked
questions in magazine features on ‘how to use colour!’ or ‘how to add a bright
accent!’ Yet, much as we do with art, food, music and fashion, we all have our
own unique perspective and preferences regarding colour.
Far from trying to add to the somewhat overwhelming labyrinth of
colour options and advice already out there, this book is more about the art
of colour and how I see it and use it in my own life. I believe the best-looking
rooms and those that feel good to be in are those with carefully considered,
striking and beautiful colour. For me, colour is without doubt the single most
exciting and powerful component in any home’s interior. It’s the simplest and
best way to make your surroundings immediately joyful and uplifting. I hope
this book will inspire your eye and further your confi
fid
dence when using colour
in your own home.
My love aff
ffa
air with colour began early in my formative years, when I lived
in Manchester, and it largely came from observing my mother and how she
used colour to dress herself and her home. She had a natural fl
fla
air and affi
ffin
nity
for colour and used it unashamedly in what was otherwise a rather grey
environment. She knew that using clever and considered colour, whether a
printed tablecloth or a patent leather handbag, was an instant mood-booster,
and would go some way to enhancing her well-being.
I’ll never forget many of the outfi
fitt choices she made while I was a young
teenager, such as a printed silk blouse she would often wear for parties and
gatherings with colours so bold and clashing they appeared straight out of an
Andy Warhol screen print. She knew how to stand out from the crowd. In the
late 1970s, she once wore a swirling-patterned jersey gown at a garden party
she hosted at home, much to the delight of the grey-clad guests. That printed
dress was so bold and full of energetic life that I often wonder if its kinetic,
Pucci-like qualities and my fascination with the reaction it received was the
kernel of what led me to design for the iconic fashion house later in my adult
life. Her use of colour was infectious. Little did I know back then that these
daily observations would ultimately form the basis of so much of my life and
career in the years ahead.
After learning much more about colour in my studies at school and on
a fashion and textile degree at London’s prestigious Central Saint Martins, I
embarked on what would be a twenty-year career in fashion, during which
colour became central to almost everything I did. It was in my early fashion
industry days that I was able to develop the idea in which I still believe so
strongly, that colour can really have a positive impact on your life. My
namesake company, built with my partner, Joseph, thrived largely thanks to
its handling of colour. The colour I used throughout my fashion career – rich
shades of turquoise, teal and everything in between – was consistently picked

WHAT DO BROTHAS DO ALL DAY?
By Ajuan Mance
Inspired by Richard Scarry’s What Do People Do All Day?, these

joyous portraits of Black men engaged in everyday life celebrate
the deep roots and rich cultures of African American commu-
nities. Author-illustrator Ajuan Mance created What Do Brothas
Do All Day? in response to children’s innate curiosity about the
activities and experiences of others, but also to meet the longing
many kids have for characters and communities that look and
feel like the people and places they know. This is a gift for Black
kids who rarely see themselves reflected in the pages of a book
and an affirmation of their world and the people who populate it.
From grocery shopping and waiting for a trim at the barbershop
to singing, dancing, and laughing with friends, Mance captures AJUAN MANCE is a visual artist, author, editor, and professor of

GRIEF IS AN ELEPHANT
By Tamara Ellis Smith
Illustrated by Nancy Whitesides
An imaginative and heartfelt book that reminds us that there is

no loss without love. When Grief first arrives, it is like an ele-
phant—so big that there is hardly room for anything else. But
over time, Grief can become smaller and smaller—first a deer,
then a fox, a mouse, and finally a flickering firefly in the dark-
ness leading us down a path of loving remembrance. This lyrical
work is an empathetic and comforting balm for anyone who is
experiencing grief, be it grieving the loss of a loved one or losses
in the world around us.
TAMARA ELLIS SMITH earned her MFA in Writing for Children

and Young Adults from the Vermont College of Fine Arts. She lives in
Richmond, Vermont.
NANCY WHITESIDES is an author and self-taught illustrator born
and raised in the Philippines. She now lives in California.

NOTHING EVER HAPPENS
ON A GRAY DAY
By Grant Snider
With fantastic bursts of color and lyricism, Grant Snider

explores the extraordinary within the ordinary in this ode to
seemingly boring days and the wonders that emerge for anyone
open to seeing them. The sky is gloomy, but perhaps all that’s
required for adventure is a bit of curiosity and patience. After all,
an everyday stroll can become an adventure in the blink of an
eye. On a day when even the rain is too bored to fall, ride along-
side a girl on her rickety bicycle through the familiar scenes
of her neighborhood as she rediscovers the colors—a splash of
yellow, a flash of red, a flutter of blue—that can be found even
when all seems monochrome. In this artful picture book that
celebrates do-nothing days and solitary adventures, readers learn GRANT SNIDER is an orthodontist by day, finding hidden hours to
how embracing quiet stillness with openness and curiosity can write, draw, and create cartoons and picture books, including What
make space for unexpected encounters, meaningful detours, Color Is Night?, What Sound Is Morning?, and One Boy Watching.

With a welcoming sense of humor, this journal is the simplest way to make gratitude a habit and
to integrate a little lighthearted reflection into the routine.
