7. Kevin the Unicorn Book - This fun kids book is written and illustrated by our rad friend ! Everyone knows that unicorns are perfect. They are glamorous and glittery, and their smiles make rainbows appear! But Kevin is having a less-than-perfect day. First, he wakes up on the wrong side of the bed ...on the floor. Then he discovers that his mane is so wild that even his Super-Perfect-Hair-Day-Spray can't tame it. And the day just gets worse from there. Kevin does his best to keep his outlook sunny, but it's hard to keep smiling when everything goes horribly wrong!
We also want to mention that one of the unicorns wears a GN4LW hat and rides a skateboard in this adventure - which we LOVE! $17.63 hardcover or $10.99 for Kindle version

9. Silver. Skate. Seventies. Book by Hugh Holland - From 1974-1978 Holland captured it all, from his bird's eye view - sometimes in a van traveling with skaters, othertimes perched nearby as they carved up a backyard pool, ditch or skatepark. It's interesting to point out, that these black and white images were taken in the very beginning, prior to his color work, when Holland was experimenting with photography techniques and capturing skateboarders as they too were trying out new terrain and creating a free flowing style that captivated the world. The stunning images show girls today how it was when skateboarding was in its infancy. $37.67
