This Halloween coloring book is a monster mash-up of over 30 different designs. Every design is inspired by that classic vintage poster art style, with each artwork resembling an invitation to a real Halloween party. These pages can be enjoyed by both adults and children alike and make for a simple but fun gift for anyone who appreciates the ghoulish and frightening. No 'Cutie-ween' pages or contrived scenarios, just monster after monster!
In "WOW 2: The Memoirito Continues," David is in high school, a top student and athlete. But as the tumultuous 70's set in, David is pulled by partying and getting high, until a brush with the law and pigeons in his South Bronx neighborhood forces him to re-think his priorities. David writes his first short story, learns about Marxism via the economics of his shirt, graduates, and ends up becoming a young father, a detour that leads him to join the U.S. Navy. Ten months later, David is back in New York, where he becomes a radical political activist, and is schooled in the "university" known as the mailroom. The book ends with David and his friends back in the South Bronx, sharing lives linked by culture, neighborhood, work, family, and a commitment to revolutionary change. Full of the author's trademark use of humor and sharp dialogue, WOW 2 is another addition to the multilayered Latino experience, a book that entertains, educates, and enlightens, with timely lessons about what "being smart" really means.
La vida y sus palabras más amables es la última iniciativa con la que este autor se echa a la mar, trazando surcos de esperanza, combatiendo las tempestades de un corazón indomable y huyendo de los malos humos de las grandes urbes. Se le atribuye a Albert Einstein haber dicho que "la vida es muy peligrosa. No por las personas que hacen el mal, sino por las que se sientan a ver lo que pasa". La indiferencia, el estrés y el ahogamiento al que hemos sometido nuestras acciones cotidianas amenaza con destruir nuestra sociedad y nuestro más apreciado tesoro, nuestra capacidad para amar y sentir. El ser humano corre el riesgo de deshumanizarse y ceder todo su ser a lo material y a la relativización de lo superficial. Poesia, reflexiones, amor y pensamientos aireados en halos de alma inquieta.
"The Life as I see it" is the latest initiative with which this author takes to the sea, tracing grooves of hope, fighting storms of indomitable heart and running away from the bad smoke of the big cities. Albert Einstein is attributed to have said that "The world is a dangerous place to live: not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it". Indifference, stress and pressure have transformed our daily actions in such a way that our collective behaviour threatens to destroy our society and our most precious treasure, our ability to love and feel. The human being is at risk of being dehumanized and cease its whole being to the material and the relativization of the inherent matters. Poetry, reflections, love and thoughts aerated in halos of a restless soul.

From the Poet Laureate of San Jose, these poems salvage memories from the wreckage of the Challenger disaster, drink shots with the poltergeist haunting the local dive bar, and resurrect the wisdom in the harsh words of departed lovers.In his debut poetry collection, Love in a Time of Robot Apocalypse, David Perez takes snapshots of a world under collapse to show us the parts worth saving. His images activate a new way of seeing. The mundane is no longer insignificant- the nightmare no longer insufferable. At times, Perez is terse and pragmatic. Love in a Time of Robot Apocalypse beckons us into dark corners in ways that let our eyes adjust, revealing a splendor we would have otherwise surely missed.
It's the South Bronx of the 1960s, a neighborhood teetering on change. The young Puerto Rican boy David Perez is living in the Millbrook housing projects, about to be transferred to St. Luke's Catholic School, where he's already attended catechism and asked if God "e;popped out of nowhere."e;So begins Prez's delightful and engaging "e;memoirito,"e; a novella-like tale that follows Prez playing neighborhood games like "e;Find the Belt"e; and navigating his way through a school populated by a chalk-throwing nun and a trio of desperadoes known as the Brothers of the Sacred Heart. Prez becomes an altar boy for a very novel reason, which eventually leads to his first date. He wants "e;to be a man"e;-even before he's a teenager. Being cool and tough are life's aspirations (or so he thinks), and being the smartest guy in school isn't something to brag about. WOW! adds a fresh chapter to the colorful chronicles of Latinos living in the United States-complex, layered, y lleno de sabor. WOW! was one of the winners in the Comedy Category of the 2012 Latino Books Into Movies Awards. The book was also a Finalist in Multicultural Non-Fiction for the 2012 Next Generation Indie Book Awards.
