A definate for vehicle lovers!
I always wanted to see more and to be able to look inside of the vehicles more closely, and this book provides that information (and more more) in great detail. I really like the mini illustrations of where in the vehicles that events from the movies took place, it helps to "put a name to a face".
Beezus and Ramona

Beverly Cleary
Camelot, 1993
Great Memories
Beezus and Ramona is a book that I read as a child. Ramona is a very mischivous little girl that keeps the family, including her big sister Beezus, hopping. She has an imagination larger then life shown by the craziness she gets into. For example, Ramona decided she wanted a party and invited all of her nursery school friends over and did not tell her mother. At the last minute Beezus and ...

Tove Jansson's guide to the family
I first discovered this book at the age of about 12 or 13, already older than the average moomin reader, but having read most of the others. It was obvious that this was no ordinary moomin book, and neither was it strictly a children's book. In fact it is a masterly observation of family dynamics, mid life crises and the human condition, but mixed with a mysterious and fantastic magic that ...
Ramona and Her Mother (Ramona Quimby)

Beverly Cleary

Another winner from Beverly Cleary
"Ramona And Her Mother" is a later entry in the Ramona & Beezus series, and yet it is also one of the finest books of its kind, another in a long line of great books by the masterful Beverly Cleary. First pubished in 1979, the book finds the gauzy comfort of the Eisenhower era (when the first Henry Huggins and Beezus books were written) replaced by the strain and worry of the recessionary ...
Wait Till Helen Comes: A Ghost Story (Avon Camelot Books)

A Real Thriller!
The book Wait Till Helen Comes has excellent and real characters. Although it has a bittersweet ending you close the book feeling good. At some parts I was completely mesmorized and completely absorbed in this book. I am afraid to say I hate reading but this book was amazing and I could barely put it down. And even at some parts it gave me goose bumps! By the end of the book you have come to know ...

The Best Christmas Tale Ever!
Barbara Robinson has crafted a fantastic tale of the meaning of Christmas. In this 80 page book we come to fear and love the Herdmann clan, a gaggle of 6 kids that see the world their own way, and take it on in their own terms. They are just as likely to klonk a kid in the head as ignore them. They are the "closest thing to criminals that we knew." What does this have to do with Christmas? ...

Fabulous book, much better than the movie!
This is one of those books I found as a child AFTER seeing the Disney movie and reading that it was based on a book. As usual, the book is so much better! If you've never read this book, but you're fond of the movie, or of dogs, you will love it. The story is truly heart-warming, and I love that certain scenes are oh-so familiar if you've seen the movie, but so much of the story is completely ...

This is one of the best
This is one of my all time favorite cookbooks. I bought it after moving out on my own and realizing I needed to learn how to cook something more than pre-made sauces and hamburger helper. It is still one of the most used cookbooks on my shelf, and I own over thirty cookbooks. I needed to buy a new copy because the one I have is slowly falling apart from constant use. So my thanks go out to the ...

A wonderful autobiography!
This was an interesting and thoroughly enjoyable memoir about Beverly Cleary, nee Bunn, as a young woman during the Depression and World War II. The previous reviewers were on target concerning Beverly's easy writing style and vivid recollections of her family and college years: traveling alone by bus from Oregon to California to attend Chaffey Junior College for two years, matriculating to U ...

For Girls Only Review!
I just finished reading this awesome book a few days ago, and immmediately sent the author a thank you email for what a great job she did! Not only did she do a great job of incorportating quotes from men and women, old and young, past and present, and all religions, but I came away feeling inspired and ready to take on the world!

Great start to a great series
I thought "In Search of Scum" was a great start to the Cyber.kdz series. It has great action, suspence, and yet still developes charactors very well.

Following In My Own Footsteps
This book was awesome. It was set in the time of World War two and the details of this book grabs you into the story, and you dont want to put it down. It gives the mind to think of the other people in the world who do get abused like the family in this book. It also gives a bit of history about the president Roosevelt and how the war began/ended. This book is a must read book to anyone who come ...

I would give 5.5 if I could
Well, this piece of Moomin anthology is a more serious one. I read it first when I was 10 in my home Poland, and did not like it much. It is not so full of joy, energy and adventures as the "Summer" or "Valley". Since that time though, I have read it at least 10 more times, love it, and highly recommend to all maturer Moomin-lovers. It is a bit melancholic, played not in a G-major notation, ...

Read it, then share it with your kids!
I'm 41-years-old and normally would not read a book targeted for the 9 to 12-year-old age group. But after reading Ms. Liitle's first book, BREAKAWAY, there was no way I'd pass up her second book. And I wasn't disappointed. ENCHANTED RUNNER was awesome! The research that went into the story is probably more than found in most adult novels. I was blown away by what I learned about the Acoma ...

Awesome work
Except for Charlotte's Web, this is perhaps the best young person's book in existence. The narrative makes you visualize so thoroughly you will be left with the feeling that you have seen a movie. Don't miss this book!

I Loved It!
This is a really great book. It kept me interested not only because of its great descriptions and exciting plot, but also because I live in Colorado. Mary Hahn is a fantastic author and a lot of thought was put into her book. It's a story everyone should know.

An intoxicating novel that grips you from beginning to end
While most sixth graders are planning what they'll be doing over summer vacation, eleven-year-old Maria Angelina Tirone is spending her last few days of freedom stressing over her upcoming surgery. Maria was born with a hole in her heart, and while doctors didn't notice it earlier, it has now become a problem in Maria's everyday life - so she has to have open-heart surgery. The problem, is that ...
