If'n Books is proud to introduce The Cancerpants Journal complete with The Cancerpants Superfuntime Kit! A funny and irreverent, yet sophisticated take on the journal for the loved one with cancer.

The Cancerpants Journal features an illustration by Grammy-nominated artist Jesse LeDoux depicting a quirky little guy opening himself up to make a cancerous black cloud leave him forever. Screenprinted by hand in Providence, Rhode Island, the journal measures 6x8", and has 80 white pages. The included kit contains a pencil, tattoo, sticker, postcard and journal tips as an inspirational bonus. The clever, FDA-approved temporary tattoo image makes it appear as if the cancer is escaping directly from the wearer. The sticker features a stitched-up and triumphant Cancerpants squishing cancer. "Cancer better be wearing double-underwear 'cause I'm gonna kick its ass!" is the cheeky and energizing line imprinted on the 4" pencil with eraser. The postcard is a vibrant version of the journal cover, and the tips included in the inside pocket cover provide encouragement for putting the journal to practical use.

Recently, there has been much mention of methane being found on Saturn's moon Titan as well as on the planet Mars. What is important about this finding is that the methane could either have been created by biogenic (living) sources such as bacteria or by abiogenic (non-living) sources such as volcanoes. Either source has its very own significant scientific importance. If the methane is biogenic, it would prove that there is life somewhere else besides on earth. If the methane is abiogenic, it would prove that methane can come from something non-living instead of living. Thus, any outcome from Titan and/or Mars is important.

It's all here in one puzzling page-turner of a novel: conspiracy, codes, secret societies, ancient mysteries, the prophetic Mayan calendar end-date of 2012, alternative interpretations of events described in the Bible, mystifying metaphysics, and, yes, even murder. All of this, and more, is intricately woven into the multifaceted storyline of THE EZEKIEL CODE.
