books about: learning     books:       Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban2598 reviews J. K. Rowling Perfection Learning Prebound, 1999 The series truly begins. I love Prisoner of Azkaban. I think that this was the novel that really hooked me into the series. I have a hard time writing a literary review of any of the Rowling novels mainly because I do not feel like I'm reading a novel when I read these books, I feel like I'm on vacation. I'm transported into another world and forget to look at the subtext or deeply analyze anything that the writer is ...             The Lost Boy: A Foster Child's Search for the Love of a Family449 reviews Dave Pelzer HCI, 1997 The Lost Boy This is a story about a young boy who gets abused and treated unfairly.

Your 5 yr old will stay on your lap for the whole book and ask again tomorrow.             October Sky534 reviews Homer H., Jr Hickam Perfection Learning Prebound, 2000 Amazing True Story Homer Hickam grew up in a rural isolated mountain town but went on to win the National Science Fair. This book is his story and how he was successful. I bought 24 copies of this book to inspire my advanced 6th grade Reading class. They loved the book.

She still loves to go back and read selections of love, hope, courage. Give your teenager something worth reading! :)             Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone5425 reviews J. K. Rowling Perfection Learning Prebound, 1999 A Strange Introduction to Harry Potter I watched the SECOND movie first, the Chamber of Secrets. That was my first introduction. Over the years i then watched movie #3, #4 and #5. Recently, i went back and watched #5 again, The Order of the Phoenix. And then i just felt an urge to actually read the books before the next movie came out (and the Half Blood Prince previews were currently out) so i borrowed Half Blood Prince and ...             Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?315 reviews Bill Martin Mantra Lingua, 2003 a must have! I started reading this book to my son when he was 12 months old and since then he has always loved reading it. The words are flowy and interesting enough to capture his attention. A definate must have in a toddlers bookshelf!             Lonesome Dove384 reviews Larry McMurtry Perfection Learning Prebound, 1987 I don't remember the last book I enjoyed this much I need the book-equivalent of methadone to wean myself off the the genius that is Lonesome Dove.             Ella Enchanted1076 reviews Gail Carson Levine Perfection Learning Prebound, 1998 Cinderella Who? by Sara Martinez Many young girls dream of having a fairy tale life just like the ones that appear in Disney movies such as Cinderella, but what happens when these girls grow into young ladies and expect a little more than your usual fairy tale? In her novel Ella Enchanted, Gail Carson Levine adds a whole new twist to the familiar story of Cinderella. With the use of point of view, characterizations and themes, ...             Mattimeo (Redwall Chronicles, 3)214 reviews Brian Jacques Perfection Learning Prebound, 1992 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!             Martin the Warrior (Redwall Chronicles, 6)261 reviews Brian Jacques Perfection Learning Prebound, 1995 If you like talking animals in your books, don't miss the Redwall series. I am reading all of the Redwall books in the chronological order, not the order he wrote them in. Martin the Warrior is therefore 2nd. I'd already read Redwall and Mossflower and they remain among my favorites of this series, but Martin the Warrior is just as good. His characters are well-developed, just keep in mind that the intended audience is children. I love the way he creates different ...             Learning to Sing173 reviews Allison Glock Random House Audio, 2004 Incredible and Inspiring! This book is truly a masterpiece! I read this book because I am a Clay Aiken fan, and I thought, 'Hey, a book by Clay Aiken, this should be cool.' I would recommend this book for anyone! Even if you aren't a fan of Clay, this is still an inspiring book. Let's just say: I laughed, I cried, it moved me!" I'm ordering the book and the audio cds. This is one of those books that you read front to ...             Good Night, Gorilla167 reviews Putnam Juvenile, 2000 Wonderful! My 14-month old son runs to the bookshelf, grabs this book, and thrusts it in our direction to read to him over and over again - he just can't get enough of it! My husband and I have each read it to him dozens of times and happily we aren't bored of it either; the illustrations are excellent, and the story is creative and funny. I highly recommend this book.             A Ring of Endless Light205 reviews Madeleine L'Engle Perfection Learning Prebound, 1982 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 ...             The Little Prince191 reviews Antoine De Saint-Exupery Perfection Learning Prebound, 1977 Little Prince speaks to the child in me I was an adult when i read this book, and i really appreciated the lessons in life that Saint-Exupery shares through the Little Prince. A great book, full of beautiful illustrations, easy to read, while fun and sad at the same time. I personally read it as if Exupery is sharing with us the conversations he has with his own inner child, in the image of the Little Prince. That is why the ...             Star Wars: A Pop-Up Guide to the Galaxy177 reviews Matthew Reinhart Orchard Books, 2007 this book is really cool! I was pleasantly surprised with this purchace. My neice just loved it. It was much nicer quality than I was expecting.             Dog Heaven162 reviews Cynthia Rylant Blue Sky Press, 1995 Dog Heaven Beautifully illustrated with bright, bold colors, this touching text will make you smile at the same time it brings tears to your eyes. It is perfect for anyone, adult or child, who has had to say good-by to a much loved and faithful companion.             Tomorrow, When the War Began (The Tomorrow Series #1)156 reviews John Marsden Perfection Learning Prebound, 1997 Fabulous Ellie is so articulate, bright, and caring that she makes what would have been an average story into an amazing and believable account of eight young adults out to save their families and ultimately their homeland. Once I got used to the Australian vernacular, I read this book at an amazing pace because I simply couldn't put it down. I can't wait to hunt down the rest of this series.             They Cage the Animals at Night185 reviews Jennings Michael Burch Perfection Learning Prebound, 1986 I've read it over ten times Since I first read this book over 15 years ago I've read the book over 10 times. I read it three times the first year. I felt it was an amazing story, very touching, and able to tug at me each time I read it. The strength and courage that the author had was amazing.              search for books animals, azkaban, cassette, chicken, chronicles, enchanted, endless, family, foster, galaxy, goblet, gorilla, learning, little, lonesome, martin, mattimeo, october, pop-up, prince, prisoner, redwall, search, series, sorcerer, stories, teenage, things, tomorrow, warrior books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
