Simple, Direct and Easy to Read
I have read several "discipline" books with many more on my nightstand. This is by far one of the best books for all ages, from toddlers to teens. The book is easy to read (1-2 hours at the most), gives great examples and has already inspired me to take charge of my parenting with my almost 4 yr old twin boys. I can certainly see it's effectiveness into the teen years. The Canter's give you an ...

Amazing Story Of Survival And Kindness
Seren Tuvel survived Ravensbruck, one of the most brutal of all concentration camps, and witnessed some of the most gratuitously violent treatment I've ever heard described, yet she managed to keep her optimism, decency, dignity, humor and integrity throughout it all. This was a very difficult, painful story to read, though beautifully written.

Quite an interesting history told from a unique position
On August 18, 1941, Soldier's Radio Belgrade, the Armed Forces Radio of the German Army, began airing a little ditty called "Song of a Young Sentry." It was a vaguely martial, vaguely sad song about a young soldier and his sweetheart, Lili Marlene. The station was swamped by letter from soldiers asking that they again play, "Lili Marlene." The song was a runaway hit, and not just among the German ...

Great for everyone.
I read this book only a few months after I came out. At that time in my life I still didn't accept myself as gay. This book helped me see that you don't have a be a queen to be gay. This book also helped me look back on my own childhood. That helped me see that I've been gay all along and that I was discovering it instead of creating it. This book is an absolute joy to read. My parents read ...

Reliable & Delicious
There are few cookbook authors whose recipes I use without testing them ahead of time, usually several times. Marlene Sorosky is actually the ONLY one. This book is no exception. Everything I have tried is marvelous, the first time and every time thereafter. Try it, you'll like it!

A Separate Peace
The original "St. George and the Dragon" story is a frightening tale. Depending on which version you read, the townspeople give the scaly, stinking, vicious, dragon tribute of two sheep per day, and, when they invariably run out of sheep, they begin feeding it their own children. The King is obviously horrified, but what can he do? However, when the lottery selects his own daughter, who should ...

Miracle Grow for Writers
This book has so touched my heart and helped me work through God's plan for my writing. Marlene has an incredible ability to put into words the perfect perspective and insight to draw out a writer's thoughts. I'm taking my time with this Bible study so that I can glean from it every ounce of spiritual nutrients I know I need. God obviously knew I would need it also because he laid it on my heart ...

"Gives One Hope"
I, too, like Ms. Ryan, am a believer in "true love." I found it only once in my life for a brief time; consequently, once it became only a memory, I felt I might never find that special someone or share those wonderful feelings again. I am still in search, but after having read Ms. Ryan's tender thoughts, I now feel this is still there for me and possibly anyone who will just keep their ...

If you were a fan of Dietrich and were allowed to own only ONE book about this woman, then this should be the book to own. To reiterate another reviewer's thought -- it is EXQUISITE.

A very comprehensive book
This is one of the two books we ordered when we found out that our baby would be born with sb. We have read lots of books since then and still think this is the best. It is very comprehensive, presents the information well, and I have referred to it often over the past 8 months. We ended up purchasing several copies to give to our family members so they would understand what is going on with ...

Exquisite!
This book is awesome! There are no other words to describe it. It is a book that will stay with you. Eric and Leslie tell their story as very humble people, giving God the credit for every good thing that has happened in their lives. This book is by no means a horror/thriller, but I read it all in one evening; I just couldn't put it down. It isn't a bunch of guidelines, rules, regulations, ...

by far the best dessert cookbook
After trying almost all of the receipes in the Dessert Lovers Cookbook and making many of them countless times (all to rave reviews) my copy which started out a mere 1/2" thick is now approximately 1-1/2" thick due to numerous spills, sticky notes, markers, comments, thank you notes stating that my desserts are to DIE for, etc. I've used other dessert books but always come back to Marlene's. ...

It had created quite a stir when the Grahams sold their house, packed up their van, and set off to explore the U.S. Much of America and the major media all wanted to know what the family discovered along the way and fans have followed the Graham's progress via the Internet. Classifying this book is hard. It could be a journal, a homeschooling guide, a history lesson, or even a travel guide. ...
