Unbelievably cute and easy-to follow Kawaii drawing, broken down into step-by-step exercises which anyone can master. 'Kawaii' means cute in Japanese, and often refers to a delightful range of drawing styles that western audiences have come to love. Annelore Parot, an experienced illustrator and art teacher, has her own distinctive kawaii style based on cute objects, inviting places and expressive people.

Her fans have long demanded a guide to drawing Japan and Japanese things, so she put together the work-throughs in this book. She travelled around Japan to choose the best subjects, and invites the reader to join her in experimenting with buildings, movements, and above all aspects of Japanese culture. Myths, animals and food are all included.

Indexed, waterproof and tear-resistant road map of Mongolia at 1:1,600,000 with topographic and tourist information, published by Reise Know-How as part of their highly acclaimed World Mapping Project. The map is double-sided to provide the best balance between a good scale and a convenient size sheet; a very generous overlap means that Ulaan-Baatar is included on both sides. Names of many towns are given with alternative versions, whilst larger towns are also the Cyrillic alphabet. 

The country’s topography is presented by light altitude colouring with spot heights, mountain passes, and names of mountain ranges. The map also shows caves, oases and seasonal rivers and lakes. Internal administrative boundaries are shown with names of the provinces. Road network includes unsurfaced local roads and tracks, gives driving distances on main and secondary roads, and shows border crossings. The course of the Trans-Mongolian Railway is clearly marked and local airfields are indicated. Symbols highlight various places of interest, including national parks and protected areas, UNESCO world heritage sites, Buddhist monasteries, rock paintings, etc. The map has a latitude and longitude grid at intervals of 1°. The index of localities includes a separate list of national parks and reserves. Map legend includes English.

Written by a female Middle East expert, Bradt's Saudi Arabia is the first English-language travel guide from a mainstream publisher that focuses exclusively on the Kingdom, which has now opened for general tourism as part of rapid political, economic and social reforms. With detailed advice on what to see and do, listings for accommodation and restaurants, guidance on cultural etiquette and advice for women and other diverse travellers, this book provides the practical information adventurous tourists need to explore this new, exciting destination.

Saudi Arabia will appeal to adventure travellers, offering activities ranging from pristine, world-class scuba diving to mountain-trekking. With dramatic scenery including a desert that stretches for hundreds of kilometres (where you can camp like a Bedouin) and several accessible nature reserves, visitors looking for undisturbed landscapes are spoilt for choice.

Culture vultures will appreciate pre-Islamic rock art, Nabatean heritage, Mada'in Saleh (the sister city to Jordan's Petra in Jordan) and six UNESCO World Heritage Sites rarely visited by international tourists. Particularly after sundown, when Saudi Arabia truly comes alive, urbanites can explore the cities of Riyadh and Jeddah, where shopping opportunities range from traditional souqs to top-end malls where the wealthy go to see and be seen. Gastronomists can enjoy varied cuisine, from fine dining worthy of a Michelin star to traditional meals served on the floor, shared by all and eaten by hand.

This guide dispels misinformation by providing an unbiased, up-to-date and comprehensive resource that accurately reflects what Saudi Arabia now offers visitors from all backgrounds. Most outsiders know little about the Kingdom other than from typically negative media coverage, so may be pleasantly surprised at its rich history and youthful population eager to extend hospitality to guests respecting their culture and traditions.

A comprehensive guide combining detailed travel information about the entire Kingdom (from Shammar to Asir, and from Hejaz to Sharqiyah) with a chapter explaining some of the main practices of and reasons for the Haj and Umrah pilgrimages, plus contextual insights covering cultural etiquette, reforms and women travellers, Bradt's Saudi Arabia is the perfect companion for people who thrive on off-the-beaten-path travel.
