Clueless McGee
Diary of a Wimpy Kid meets Timmy Failure! Clueless McGee is just your average fifth-grader: snarky, awkward, and a magnet for trouble. The only difference: he's also an amateur detective. Determined to make his absent father proud, he uses the skills he's learned playing video games to solve mysteries. Only he's no Sherlock Holmes. Or Encyclopedia Brown. Or even Scooby-Doo. When the school bully is framed for filling the orchestra teacher's tuba with macaroni and cheese, Clueless is on the case. But can he catch the culprit before he strikes again? His only obstacle, as Jeff Mack shows us in his hilarious new illustrated series, is his own ineptitude . . . questionable talent . . . and limited intelligence. No problem!

Basic Managerial Skills for All Fourth Edition
The Fourth Edition of this well-established text, while retaining the basic contents and style of the earlier editions, brings in a more logical and more systematic approach to the subject. The assumption of the book is that the human person is by nature a manager and has leadership and managerial skills that can and should be continually developed. These basic skills are: reading, writing, learning, speaking, interviewing, being authentic, training, deciding, problem-solving, managing conflict, and motivation. And in this book, Fr. McGrath, with his masterly skills and wealth of experience, tells how these skills can be fully developed and mastered. Constant use of pointers, tips, exercises and questionnaires, supplemented by hand drawings, make this book exceptionally reader friendly.
