"Reduced Shakespeare Company" Does History
I came across Terry Deary completely by accident ~ in a gift shop in Scotland, shoved amongst other more "scholarly" hardcovers. As my graduate area of study is the Middle Ages, I was intrigued and bought the book on a whim ~ and haven't stopped buying Terry Deary's books since! Are the books chock-full of historical facts guaranteed to allow someone to walk away thinking they know everything ...

Enjoyable! Refreshing!!
This book is an enjoyable, easy read. Very refreshing!! A lot of common sense suggestions in raising good kids! I plan to share it with friends who have small children (and big ones too). As a parent that is, unfortunately, always intimidated by the parent-teacher conference - I definitely plan to use some of the advice and suggestions that Ms. Boccanfuso offers in Part II - The Great ...
Growing Up in Khaki: Life As a Service Brat

G. E. Allingham
Research Triangle Publishing

Reader Review
Reading "Growing Up In Khaki" was a delightful, but fraught experience. Delightful because Allingham's comedic reportage hits the spot from the first pages. His tales have the same rare ability as Bill Bryson's to invoke paroxysms of laughter from this stern Brit. countenance. The military life merely provides the author with a powerful opportunity to express his wit, and Allingham seizes the ...

The Information in The Book Changed My Life.
I recommend this book whole-heartedly for anyone who would like to change behaviors that they are unhappy with, be able to participate more fully, naturally, and wisely in life, or have any family or childhood-related issues they would like to resolve. Excellent book for those willing to look and willing to change.

'50's Nostalgia, Vietnam Confusion
A nostalgic pause in middle aged baby boomer's lives, "Just a Little Rain" is a collection of reflections of men, and a remarkable woman, who played on the sandlots of the 1950's and early 1960's, travelled the world in the face of the Cold War, many of them as military brats, and got down to the grim task of the Vietnam War before they realized that their childhoods had ended.

The Brat Chronicles
The Brat Chronicles Outstanding! From an Army Brat's view point who spent all 4 years of High School in Germany. Mr. Ritter's description of places and things were right on the mark. Brought back a lot of fond memories. I enjoyed Mr. Ritter's escapades as a teen in Germany.

This gem is well written and includes practical and action-oriented plans for restoring balance to family life. While other books try to explain theory and behavior, this book focuses on parenting actions and reminds us that our job as parents is to raise our children to become healthy functioning adults. The book makes it easy to see how certain unmanaged behaviors, when allowed to continue, ...

totally hysterical
I read this book when it was first published.....and my copy was unfortunately lost in the borrowing/return process. I am an ARMY brat, was married to a NAVAL aviator then went on to another ARMY aviator. The book brought back so many memories though we lived overseas only in Germany and Hawaii. But, the stories I heard from other BRATS all come together in this wonderful read. I recommend it ...

Great recipes
I am an advid cookbook collecter and strive to find the best recipe for dishes so we rarely eat the same thing twice unless it fits the criteria. There are two recipes out of this book that I've tried that fit that criteria. One is the recipe for Old World Lasagna which differs from other recipes by adding Feta cheese, roasted red peppers and spinach beside the normal recipe ingredients found in ...

Josephine Tey
Heinemann Educational
, 1968
Subtle English mystery at its best.
Josephine Tey is a master of mid-century British mysteries. Almost all of her books are terrific and Brat Farrar is the best of the bunch. Less precious than Sayers, Tey writes every bit as well and has an eye for description. She writes about mysteries in every day life among the privileged, although not aristocratic, class. This book is very clever, involving a lost heir and an appealing ...

calling all sportos, metalheads, geeks, sluts, dweebies...
This book is an essential read for all wanna be Brat Packers out there. It is a comprehensive guide to the quintessential films and actors of the 80's phenomena. We are transported back in time and allowed the pleasure of reliving the birth of the ultra - knowing Generation X. The teen movie of the 1980's was in its decade undervalued yet through informative and nostalgic retrospect this book ...

*SHORT AND SWEET*
I really enjoyed this book. I am always looking for short stories when traveling or hanging at the beach. That way I can finish a story and not be aching until I get a chance to pick it up again...kids, they really get in the way! Three great stories! I found in all three there was a tenderness to the story with great steam and HEAT! Highly recommend this book. Hope this helps!
