I just finished reading it and I am in awe, and overwhelmed at the same time. IT kept me on my toes, it was intense and funny and a whole gamet of emotions went through my mind as I read this book. I loved it. Not sure I liked Willows demise, but it was fitting and very poignant.             Cooking Light Cook's Essential Recipe Collection: Slow Cooker: 57 essential recipes to eat smart, be fit, ...30 reviews Editors of Cooking Light Magazine Oxmoor House, 2006 Great satisfaction with product and service This book contains many recipes that will be helpful for busy homemakers, mothers, and those working outside the home.

Although the tecniques in this book are not some hidden mystery, the ideas work and they are good tools to have when baby is fussy. I can pretty much always quiet my baby by holding him in the crook of my arm, on his side, with a pacifier and shaking my elbow to give him what my husband and I have termed "the bobble head". The author is a little full of himself, but it is worth the read if only ...             What to Expect When You're Expecting: 4th Edition193 reviews Heidi Murkoff, Sharon Mazel Workman Publishing Company, 2008 Not "alarmist" or "fear-mongering." Luckily I purchased this book before reading the Amazon.com reviews. The reviewers that gave this book a poor rating, claiming it is "alarmist" and "fear-mongering," are using exactly the kind of hyperbolic language they accuse the authors of using. I am normally overly self-aware and concerned about every little pain or abnormal feeling I have; if anything, the book's month-to-month description ...             Mary Engelbreit's Take Good Care: 2010 Wall Calendar5 reviews LLC Andrews McMeel Publishing Andrews McMeel Publishing, 2009 ME Wall Calendar The pictures in this wall calendar are colorful and whimsical. There is enough room in the daily blocks to pencil in a few activities. The paper quality doesn't seem as thick as in previous ME wall calendars, but it is okay. Shipping was quick. The packing left a little corner smushed, but otherwise was okay.             What's Your Poo Telling You?57 reviews M.D., Anish Sheth, Josh Richman Chronicle Books, 2007 HESTERICALLY FUNNY AND INFORMATIVE Loved the book I purchased it at my MOMS request if you can believe that-my sister had it and she HAD to have it.

Little, Brown Books for Young Readers, 2009 Bring on the Puffs!! Nubs is a remarkable story of the courage of a war dog and his new friend and guardian Major Dennis!

Sure enough, a few months later when some drama unfolded with her friends at school, she picked up the book! She actually followed the advice the book gave her and everything worked out perfectly. Now she reads the book over & ...             The Care & Keeping of You: The Body Book for Girls (American Girl Library)333 reviews Valorie Schaefer American Girl Publishing Inc, 1998 Great book for an introduction to puberty! I bought this book for my daughter who is on the young side of the recommended age group (8) because I wanted her to have a book where she felt comfortable with the characters to really dig in learn more about her body and how to take care of herself. Well this book was on point with everything and made those "dreaded" discussions much easier to have. It is written very well and easy for her to ...             The Baby Book: Everything You Need to Know About Your Baby from Birth to Age Two (Revised and Updated Edition)890 reviews William Sears, Martha Sears, ... Little, Brown and Company, 2003 the best book for new parents I recieved this book as a gift when I was pregnant and I just got a copy for 2 friends who are pregnant. It is a great resource for developmental stages. It is also a great "how to" care for a new baby book. I really liked the attachement parenting style, but even if you don't care for that, the book is still an invaluable resource for all the other great info it provides.             What to Expect the First Year457 reviews Heidi Murkoff Workman Publishing Company, 2003 Very Helpful The book is very helpful regarding new things happening with your baby, and what to expect to come soon.

Highly recommended.             The Expectant Father: Facts, Tips and Advice for Dads-to-Be, Second Edition276 reviews Armin A. Brott Abbeville Press, 2001 Okay Good book, but not what I had expected.

I am so thankful for this book! It is simple and ...             The Healing of America: A Global Quest for Better, Cheaper, and Fairer Health Care127 reviews T. R. Reid The Penguin Press, 2009 Should be required reading This book should be required reading for all politicians who are perpetuating the last place standing of the United States. It is clear, objective, and well written. It will make most readers angry because it makes apparent that the current debate is not about health care, but is about protecting and increasing profits for the insurance and investment banking industries. I am convinced that ...             Eat This Not That! for Kids!: Be the Leanest, Fittest Family on the Block!103 reviews David Zinczenko, Matt Goulding Rodale Books, 2008 Health Education Teacher loves this book As a middle school Health Education Teacher, I find this book to be very helpful.
