Winner of the 2020 Theodor Seuss Geisel Award for most distinguished American book for beginning readers. In this very young picture book mystery, a little boy out for a walk with his family stops to show a building doorman his new "bot": "I have a bot!" Only he doesn't have it for long, because it floats up out of his hands like an escaped balloon. "Stop! Bot!" Springing to action, the kind doorman runs up to each floor of the building to try and catch it -- along with the help of each floor's resident. But while everything looks normal at first, every floor (and resident) is a little more wacky and unusual than the last! Musicians, baseball players, zoo animals, and finally a very large monkey all play a part -- but will they rescue the Bot before it's too late?! Children will love all the funny details and easy-to-read words in this very playful picture book!

With stunning artwork and heart-singing text, the 2020 winner of the Theodor Seuss Geisel Award brings to life the imagination of Isamu Noguchi. If you are Isamu, stones are the most special of all. How can they be so heavy? Would they float if they had no weight? Winner of the Theordor Seuss Geisel Award in 2020 for Stop! Bot!, James Yang imagines a day in the boyhood of Japanese American artist, Isamu Noguchi. Wandering through an outdoor market, through the forest, and then by the ocean, Isamu sees things through the eyes of a young artist . . .but also in a way that many children will relate. Stones look like birds. And birds look like stones. Through colorful artwork and exquisite text, Yang translates the essence of Noguchi so that we can all begin to see as an artist sees.

The dawn of the 21st century brought with it one of the most profound and wide-reaching patient activist movements in history: Stop the Thyroid Madness (STTM). Created by the dynamic Janie A. Bowthorpe M.Ed, the patient-to-patient STTM revolution birthed life-changing hypothyroid treatment knowledge and protocols to counter decades of treatment mismanagement due to the use of inferior medications, the wrong lab work, and a poor understanding of symptoms. Now, as Editor, Ms. Bowthorpe brings the reader this acclaimed and brilliant second book, Stop the Thyroid Madness II, authored by over a dozen insightful medical professionals. Each practitioner brings years of excellence and insight into their chapters, not only complimenting what informed thyroid patients have learned, but offering deeper wisdom and knowledge. You'll read about the functional and holistic approach to thyroid disease, how stress affects the thyroid patient, the superior treatment of natural desiccated thyroid, why the TSH lab test is inadequate, what "normal" really doesn't mean when it comes to lab work, the importance of nutrition in regaining health and well-being, all about the autoimmune Hashimoto's version of hypothyroidism, why doctors are the way they are and how to relate to them, gluten and nutritional issues, thyroid toxicity and how to counter those toxins, the Reverse T3 problem, how MTHFR and methylation blockages can affect thyroid patients, and an understanding of why so many thyroid patients end up with low cortisol, aka hypocortisolism.

ATTENTION: Inventors and startups!Is the patent system confusing to you?
“Knowledge itself is power” - Sir Francis Bacon (1597). 
Knowledge gives you additional confidence because with the right information:
1) the correct next steps will be clearer, 
2) you will be more informed about the choices you make, and 
3) you will have peace of mind about the decisions you make. 
Navigating the Patent System will give you more clarity regarding your potential next steps and increase your confidence as you make your patenting decisions. This is not a substitute for legal advice. Retain a patent attorney to help you through the patent process.
The patent system is systematically explained so that you can get a better sense what the right next steps for you might be. The 7 Core Concepts is a systematic way of learning about the patent system. The 7 Core Concepts helps you to have a clear sense of what your options are. 
*** Section 1: 7 Core Concepts
The 7 Core Patent Concepts form the informational foundation that every inventor and startup should know to be prepared to make smarter decisions. The information is not exhaustive and is presented in a clear, easy-to-understand manner. Rather than a lengthy, dry discussion of laws and rule, it gives you what you need to know when you go through the patent process to mitigate mistakes and to eliminate the possibility of wasting time and money. When necessary, the essential information is covered in more depth since you sometimes do need to roll up your sleeves if you want clarity and confidence regarding the decisions you are making. 
*** Section 2: Patent Applications
The mechanics and strategies of preparing a patent application are also included. The information is not meant to teach you how to prepare your own patent application. Instead, it is presented here so that you can participate in a more thoughtful review of the patent application with your patent attorney. The goal is for you to be more informed; therefore, you can be a more active participant in your collaboration with your patent attorney.
The information will explain how difficult it is to correctly prepare a well written patent application. The complex nature of the patent document will allow you to understand the necessity and role of a patent attorney in the preparation of a well written, successful patent application. Please do not assume that this book is preparing you to do it yourself. Navigating the Patent System is intended as a tool to prepare you to ask more meaningful, precise questions of your patent attorney.
*** Section 3: FAQs
Answers to frequently asked questions are also included. I’ve fielded questions from inventors, startups and clients since 2004. Oftentimes, attorneys give clients just enough information to understand why they need to follow the steps that the attorney thinks are the appropriate next steps. The FAQs section provides a broader discussion of topics so that the inventor and startup can have a clearer picture of the overall landscape. Thus, they can have more clarity regarding the pros and cons of each choice and make a more informed decision. 
This book is a discussion of many of the most critical issues one needs to be aware of when utilizing the patent system. 
The information revolution has made knowledge easy and inexpensive to access. In Navigating the Patent System, I share with you the wealth of information that I have collected from my collaboration with clients and inventors for over 13 years. With the knowledge that I lay out in this book, you can have more control over your decisions by asking more precise questions and actively participating in a collaborative partnership with your patent attorney.

Joey has a dog. And a ball. And a great throwing arm. Jet has Joey. And a job to do. And do. And do. And do. They make a fine pair. If you were Joey's ball -- the one with the blue stripe -- you would keep moving among the birds through the trees on the water down the hill up the hill across the street between the tables over the roofs into a hole and out of a hole along with Jet, Joey's dog.
