We are sure that you love Moleskines as much as we do here at C&M HQ, but when we got our hands on these little wonders, we had a new favorite accessory.

Each one has roughly 80 pages, is 3.5" (9 cm) wide and 5" (13 cm) tall, so we don't want to hear anything about it being too big for you to carry around, this is a perfect size for any bag or any suit for that matter.

OK, so you've heard of the guy, know he's Austrian and have tried his delicious little chocolate truffles called Mozartkugeln... Well, think again today, because these aren't edible, yet create just the same enchanted feeling. But let's start at the beginning: Mozart – yes the Austrian composer wunderkind – has been slapped on to the yummy truffles that are available in abundance in Salzburg, or pretty much every store in Austria, but unfortunately, he has nothing to do with the rich confectionary. He was a composer after all, not a chocolatier, he just happened to be born in the same city they were invented. Now today's product though is not half as fattening, actually it's not fattening at all and any attempt trying to divulge this little sucker will have you spend time in the nearest ER... Let's cut to the chase: This hand crafted wooden sphere houses an 18 key chime that is forever enclosed inside, but a simple turn of the elegantly shaped key has it unleash its power and suddenly...

This perennial children's favorite tells the story of Max, sent to bed without dinner for acting like a monster. Alone in his room, his imagination takes over and he becomes a sort of happy monster, cavorting with a crew of monster friends, and thus showing how anger can be used to fuel imagination. The highly detailed, beautiful and funny illustrations show how in Max's mind his room is transformed into a jungle, an ocean and an island where he becomes the king of the wild things -- but, at the end, returns home -- because there's no place like it.
