A Halloween Favorite!
I rotate what books we read to our 4yr old son depending on the seasons and holidays; we decided this was a good time to introduce him to this book. It's a story about a brave lady walking late in the evening collecting nuts and herbs. While she is on her way home, she comes across some "haunted" items (clothing and a pumpkin head), and the items follow her home. At the end of the book, she uses ...

Fear diminishes the quality of life.........Don't let it!!
We Are Not Afraid is a very inspiring book about strength and courage in perilous times. I think everyone who reads this will come away a stronger individual for it. If you have children, sons, daughters, nieces or nephews I think it is even more important to read this!!! The book was just such a "thinker". It is only 213 pages, it reads quickly but it lasts long after you close the cover. ...

An all-time favorite!
This is one of the most fun books you'll find to read to (or with) your children. My 3-year-old daughter loves it! Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Book is totally engrossing. It is probably the closest thing to "full-contact-reading", because the reader must open "hidden" pages to find a royal party, must help the main character escape through a hole in the page, and must flip the book upside down ...

Naked and not ashamed
I believe that Bishop TD Jakes is one of the most influence minister in this day and time. I offen say if I was in Texas that Bishop Jakes would be my pastor. He has help me out in some many ways. The title of the book alone gave me to courage to stand, by itself "Naked and not ashamed" how many time spiritually and physically I was ashamed about things I did not want to be reveal. But I have ...

A must-read after a breast cancer diagnosis
I purchased, After Breast Cancer: Answers to the Questions You're Afraid to Ask, for a friend of mine who was diagnosed with primary breast cancer two years ago. Before giving my friend the book, I read it, so I would not be suggesting a book that might "scare" her. Having metastatic breast cancer myself, I found myself wishing I would have had such a resource after my initial diagnosis. The ...

a book to keep with you a lifetime
I received this book when I was quite young and it became an instant favorite with me. I think, at the time, my father gave it to me because I was actually afraid of the dark. Not only was it a reassuring friend in that respect, but the prevailing message of hope and ease in the book helped me immensely in my attempts to cope with the dark confusion that was childhood. Today, as an adult, I still ...
Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Cartooning but Were Afraid to Draw

Maybe not Everything, but Plenty Nevertheless!
Before I finished my third book I decided it needed cartoons to visually explain some ideas (a picture is worth 1000 words) and provide humor to a tough subject. I started checking with hiring a professional artist (or student artist) to do the work. It quickly became clear the task would be time consuming, expensive and I may not get what I wanted in the end. First, it would be difficult to ...

A Strong Step Forward for Animal Rights
This is the most comprehensive book I have read about the treatment of animals. The information that Karen Dawn gives is excellently supported and comes from a huge variety of sources, both those in favor of animal rights and those against. It covers everything from animals used in food, clothing, entertainment, and product testing, to the most effective ways of making a stand for animals. Dawn ...

The sequel to a unique and powerful method of learning C++
The genius of Steve Heller has created a masterful sequel to his original work "Who's Afraid of C++." His treatment of complex topics like encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism demonstrates an understanding of the difficult process of learning advanced C++ concepts. Steve's goal is to help the reader understand how to create his or her own class as opposed to simply referencing ...

If You Are Afraid of the Dark, Remember the Night Rainbow.
I was first led to this book when I was seeking a "linus" comfort book, years ago, to read during a very trying time in my life. When my "guardian angels" led me to this little book, I opened it and began to read it, right there in that little shop where first I was "told to go". As I read, I wept and felt such validation as a person in need who was being comforted and cared about, that I ...

Should be required reading for all aspiring lawyers
A seasoned attorney gave me this book when I was in my third year of law school. Eight years later I remain very grateful that I received this gift, because it is the most poignant, blunt, and accurate synopsis of the legal profession I have ever come across. The point of this book is not to deter people from being lawyers or scare the daylights out of them. Rather, it aims to prepare aspiring ...

The Barkers are the Best!
I'm a recent transplant from New York and have been spoiled rotten by its hundreds of cutting-edge restaurants and innovative chefs. But I have to tell you, the Barkers and Magnolia Grill are right up there. As a rule, I find chef cookbooks beyond the capabilities of the average-- or even the advanced-- home cook. NOT AFRAID OF FLAVOR is the exception. Not only are its recipes inviting, ...

WARNING! May cause riotous laughter and shortness of breath!
I would be VERY careful about reading this book in a public place. I was paging through the marginal trivia and quotes when I first got this book while I was waiting for my friend at Starbucks. I soon realized that most of the people were looking at me like I was a lunatic because I was gasping and laughing so hard and did not realize it. At one point, an elderly lady asked me if I was OK, or if ...

This book warmly reminds you of God's protective hand.
My boys and I have read the book about six times since last night. One of them went to bed with it. The illustrations depict the content of the text with such warmth. The message of God's caring hand comes across so well with the words being taken directly from a paraphrased Bible. What could be more comforting than this? Wonderful! I will be buying more of these books.

Review of Not Afraid of Dogs
I have a seven year old grandson who is very active and outgowing but is afraid of some dogs. I hoped this book would help him overcome his fear. He enjoys reading the story and I hope it will eventually help him work through his fear.

Suzie Bitner's Drainophobia
Barbara Vance's first book of poetry is delightful; full of imagination, whimsy, a bit of wisdom and a few life lessons as well. The poems are varied in length and meter and cover a wide range of themes. Ms. Vance's ability to channel the wonder, curiosity and perplexity of childhood reads as honest and authentic. She clearly remembers these feelings and perspectives; rendering them in ...

A remarkable historic account written by a true hero
I have known the author for over thirty years. He is man of integrity and courage. This book took several years for him to complete due to its personal nature. His dedication to the Corps, his men and his mission are obvious in every chapter. I am proud to have him as a friend. Read this book!!!
Who's Afraid of the Holy Spirit
7 reviews, ..., 2005
An Excellent Treatise on the Holy Spirit . . .
This book is highly recommended for the seminarian, scholar or lay-person who seeks to understand the role of the Holy Spirit in the everyday life of a believer. While the book is written from a cessationist standpoint, the contributors argue that the third person of the Trinity is indispensible for the proper study of the Bible, for a right understanding of our emotions, for authentic worship in ...
