Good Insight
I am not a teen anymore, but a decade ago, I was. I never went to a public school, or delt with teenage dating, drugs, suicide, sneaking around, or all of that drama. I purchased this for a special teen in my life who has had to go to public school and face all of that. I read it before I gave it to her, and I think I learned some things that enter into the "average teen's" life. I hope she ...

Great Book, good sense
Cimorene is a spunky and smart princess who uses her head and doesn't let others do her thinking for her simply because "she's a princess". She goes through all sorts of trials, but she gets through them. Sometimes on the (good) advice of others, sometimes by luck, but most often it is through either preparation or sound reasoning. Cimorene builds a good circle of friends around her and does her ...

Loved it
The way I judge a book is simple. It's not always about whether or not the characters as a whole are completely believable or realistic (I.E. Fire who's character isn't totally realistic but he fit this novel perfectly), although in some books that matters more than others. Also,it doesn't always have to be something I personally can relate to. I judge a book on whether or not I can get into the ...

My daughter's favorite book
My daughter is 2 and she loves this book, it is her favorite. She already knows the name of all the animals in the book. I think is a very educational book and will be buying the others too.

I was worried about buying a book for 5 cents. Yet the only thing was the cover had a diagonal crease. Who cares?! I am definitely buying more books from thriftbooks

The Book Bolts Out Of The Gate & Never Slows Down
My interest in horse racing was right up there with watching paint dry. The movie Seabiscuit was very well done and I purchased the paperback in conjunction with the theatrical release of the movie as well as the gushy reviews Ms. Hillengrand's book had received. And then there it sat... gathering dust on my bookshelf for nearly six years. Don't be an idiot like me and rush out to get this ...

Ella Enchanted: A true fairy tale
The fact that 12 years after reading this book at the age of 9, I have recently named my new dog Ella should be an indication as to how much I adored this book as a child. When I was a fourth grader, I read this book three times I loved it so much, and it holds a special place in my heart the same way reading Jane Eyre did when I was 18. It was *the* childhood novel that inspired me to become ...
Mattimeo (Redwall, Book 3)

EXCELLENT! 10/10!
This is either the best or the second best Redwall book. It's the direct sequel to the Original Redwall, so there will be a lot of familier characters. Complete with 3 huge battles, a cruel monster that lurks in the dark, and an evil slaver named Slager, this book is ultimate, and I highly reccomend it!

K teacher
I'm a kindergarten teacher and my kids absolutely love that book. I read it to them and we watched the video on united streaming. They look for the letter we're working on and tell me what happened to that letter when it fell out of the tree. It's not meant to be used as a tool to learn the alphabet. But it's a great way for kids to become aware of all of the letters and what they look like.

amazing
This is in my opinion the best book of a simply amazing series. It follows the story of Martin the Warrior, a legendary character in the Redwall series. Although it wasn't the first book written in the series chronologically, it's probably the best to read first - and if you were to only read a single Redwall book it should be this. Courage, honor, romance, adventure, revenge...this book ...

Loved It!!
I loved this book and I would recommend it to girls from the ages 10 and up. This was a good story to connect to your life or the lives of the people around you. The things that happen to Vicky in A Ring of Endless Light might happen or may have happened to the reader. Therefore the plot of the story is believable. I would like to read another story by this author because I loved how thorough ...

Yup.
Here's how pervasive the Michael J. Fox phenom has been: I saw only one episode of Family Ties, was dragged by my peer group to Back to the Future, and have never seen Spin City. Yet I still knew, before getting this book, That MJF was from Canada, the names of his wife and each of his four children, and that he had Parkinson's. I told myself I was reading this book for the serious, noncurable ...
For Laci: A Mother's Story of Love, Loss, and Justice

A frighteningly ordinary story, in so many ways
Laci Rocha Peterson wanted to be a mother. For that, she died. We already know the outcome of this story before we pick up the book that tells it, from the viewpoint of Laci's mother. So why bother to read it? Because it's riveting. Because it has so much to say, some of it deliberately and some inadvertently, about human behavior at its best as well as at its worst. The book's first chapters ...
