Although it was written many decades ago, the challenges and issues faced by Anne Morrow Lindbergh are the same ones faced by women in today's crazy, bustling world.

The last line in this great book is "...and it was still hot", and it is! I first read this book in a Children's Literature class in college (which was taught by our county's wonderful head Children's Librarian); I used it for my picture book presentation. I later over the next few years told it at different events as an "oral tradition" style presentation, which goes to show you how well it is ...             A rumor of war: With a twentieth anniversary postscript by the author105 reviews Philip Caputo Henry Holt and Co, 1996 Excellent look into front line Vietnam I thought this book was the best book on Vietnam that I have ever read. Its a facinating look into life as a line officer in a front line Marine Infantry batallion during the early part of the war. Caputo holds nothing back when it comes to describing life on the front line and what goes through the minds of these young, too young Marines who fought on the front line. An excellent read and I ...             All Creatures Great and Small (20th Anniversary Edition)106 reviews James Herriot St. Martin's Press, 1992 Just as relavent now...

"I stumbled upon this book in my school library looking for a good book for a book report. I had no idea it was going to be so good!

A great book, full of beautiful illustrations, easy to read, while fun and sad at the same time. I personally read it as if Exupery is sharing with us the conversations he has with his own inner child, in the image of the Little Prince. That is why the ...             Taking Charge of Your Fertility, 10th Anniversary Edition: The Definitive Guide to Natural Birth Control, ...1041 reviews Toni Weschler Collins, 2006 Wow Wow!
