It is the year Universal Century 0079, in a space colony the Earth Federation is storing and testing a new piloted robot for use in the battle against the Principality of Zeon. The experimental RX-78 Gundam mobile suit is scheduled to be transported to Federation command in Jaburo, deep within the Brazilian jungles. Unfortunatley, before the transporter would arrive, the Federation would come under attack from Zeon. With few resources available against the Zeon's most mobile mechs, Federation forces strike back using their new weapon, the mobile suit Gundam. Caught in the crossfire is a young teen named Amuro Ray. Not willing to see innocent people die like this, Amuro crawls into the cockpit of the closest machine around him. Whether it be a tank, jeep or jet, he was going to use it to help stop this slaughter. And what he happened to slide into was another Gundam. Having never operated a machine like this, what are the chances he can do anything to repel an experienced squad of mech-piloting invaders?

It is true-there really is a Santa Claus. Every year from Thanksgiving to Christmas Eve, Santa travels from the North Pole to share his joy for the gift of giving with children. In The Clause Chronicles, Karl Krueger-with a little help from Kris Kringle-offers practical advice for families who want to make the yearly trek to see Santa a joyful one for their little ones. Karl has gained a unique perspective not only from being father to two, but also from years of perching on the red velvet throne as a photo Santa. With the hope of helping parents prevent seasonal meltdowns in their children, Kris and Karl partner together to share colorful artwork, real-life stories, and reassuring advice that teach others how to compile a good list for Santa, what to tell children about him, and how to ensure a peaceful, fearless trip to see the jolly old elf. The Clause Chronicles takes us back to a time when we believed in the magic of Santa's hearty laugh, his twinkling eyes, and the promise that he would make all our wishes come true.

Japanese Influence on American Children’s Television examines the gradual, yet dramatic, transformation of Saturday morning children’s programming from being rooted in American traditions and popular culture to reflecting Japanese popular culture. In this modern era of globalization and global media/cultural convergence, the book brings to light an often overlooked phenomenon of the gradual integration of narrative and character conventions borrowed from Japanese storytelling into American children’s media. The book begins with a brief history of Saturday morning in the United States from its earliest years, and the interaction between American and Japanese popular media during this time period. It then moves onto reviewing the dramatic shift that occurred within the Saturday morning block through both an overview of the transitional decades as well as an in-depth analysis of the transformative ascent of the shows Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Pokémon, and Yu-Gi-Oh!.
