Mick Foley

Harper Audio, 2000

The best man you never knew
Let me say before meeting Mick I had read his books and really not sure which one is which anymore as I tend to read political books, books on economics, finance, investing, history, philosophy, theology, and the most important book of all the bible. Those who know Mick knows he is a genuine hero and am sure many stars have thier reasons well scratch that do not know the others and conceptions ...

HARPER COLL CHILDREN, 2006

A great buy
I read this a while ago and my little sister, whose 11, just read it. We both agree that it was a awsome book. It's a great start to an even better series. In fact, my little sister didn't even like reading until she read it; now she can't stop reading! I can't praise it enough. Definatly buy this book!

Great graduation gift for H.S. or College!
Book seller delivered on price, quality and shipping! If you need a gift for a graduate of H.S. or College, do not discount this whimsical writing from Dr. Seuss. While it may be appropriate for small children, this book is really meaningful for 17 to 24 year old young adults.

Ella Enchanted (Trophy Newbery)

Gail Carson Levine

HarperCollins, 1998

To me, it's a CLASSIC!
I have been an avid reader since the 5th grade, and at first, I didn't want to give ELLA ENCHANTED a chance because of the tacky cover illustration (of the girl in the green dress), but as they say, "Never judge a book by its cover." I finally gave in to reading this book - ordering it from one of those book orders that you get from school. I just want to say that I am now 23 years old and this ...

These Is My Words - The Diary Of Sarah Agnes Prine, 1881-1901, Arizona Territories - A Novel

Nancy E. Turner

Harper-perennial, 2009

Touching Poignant Beautiful
Well over 200 reviews and over 200 with rating of 5 stars. There's obvious truth in that. Here's my two cents. It was one of the best historical reads ever in my library and believe me I've read alot. Ms. Turner wrote as Sarah and kept me captivated from the beginning to end. I did not want to put this book down. I've now started her second in the series, "Sarah's Quilt" and it is the same as ...

The Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles
In the fantasy novel The Last of the Really Great Whangdoodless Julie Andrews Edwards crafts a tail so full of description and imagination, you feel like you're in the pages themselves. If you look in the Webster's Dictionary you'll find the word whangdoodle. It means, "Humorous, mythical creature of fanciful and undefined nature.". Now join Ben, Tom, and lindy as they embark on a journey to ...

The Complete Little House Nine-Book Set

Laura Ingalls Wilder

HarperCollins, 1994

Endearing!
The storyline and writing style is simple and geared for 3rd or 4th grade readers, but the content is always heartwarming and wholesome. I'm in my twenties and reading these books for the second or third time since childhood. They will be staples in my library for my own children to read, along with L. M. Montgomery and Louisa May Alcott.

Torey L. Hayden

Harper Perennial, 2007

Fantastic.
I'm a sophomore in high school at an assembly one day, this book was mentioned. It seemed interesting so I bought a copy from on here. I must say this book was a fantastic read. Hayden as an author is wonderful and the story really caught my attention and grabbed hold of my heart. This was one of those books that I would not put down. It left me tearing and very curious as to where Shelia is ...

Last Days of Summer

Steve Kluger

Harper Paperbacks, 1999

I'm heartbroken
My introduction to Steve Kluger was with "Almost Like Being In Love." The format threw me for a bit, but, once used to the manner in which the author was to tell his story, I went on to enjoy this delightful story. Next came this book..."Last Days of Summer." I found the author's website and wrote him an e-mail; I was about thirty pages short of the book's end at that moment. I sent another ...

Rick Riordan

Hyperion Book CH, 2008

Imaginative, thrilling, chilling, spine tingling adventures you won't want to miss
I must admit I was truly unsure about this book as a gift to a nine year old. However, after reading it I was okay with it. It is an excellent book and truly adventurous. The author has a gift of placing you right there at the scene. Go with young Percy on his adventures and you won't be disappointed.

Perfect for a child's first school days
The Kissing Hand is a story that I share with my preschoolers and their parents the first day of school. I encourage them to share a "kissing hand" with Mom or Dad, especially when they might be a little sad as they leave for school each day.

Harold and the Purple Crayon

Crockett Johnson

Harper & Row, Publishers, 1955

Doesn't get much better than this.
I think this is one of those books that every child should experience. It's picture based (as opposed to text based) so there's a delightful interactive element and the child can rather tell his own tell about Harold as together they follow the purple crayon from page to page...inviting you and your child into the book to explore. So simple, it's rather Zen. And lovely. Must, must, must for ...

Healing After Loss: Daily Meditations For Working Through Grief

Martha W. Hickman

Harper Paperbacks, 1999

Very Comforting and A Wonderful Way to show You Care
The individual meditations crystallized what went through my mind after a loved one was lost. It is hard to discuss with friends the feeling of being cheated by life, or the need to hold on to the lost persons dirty socks and dishes, used magazines etc just to keep all parts of them alive in your mind. This book does that and more. It shows that what you are feeling is not uncommon and gives ...

Lorax

Dr Seuss

HARPER COLL CHILDREN, 2004

A powerful story about competing interests, for children and adults...
In 1981's, a forestry-dependent community in north-coastal California (Laytonville) proposed removing The Lorax from the required reading list for second graders. One comment was, "To teach our children that harvesting redwood trees is bad is not the education we need." The numerous lawsuits and objections regarding sustainable forestry practices were a bleeding wound to these communities. ...
