He LOVES this book and reads it over and over. The rhymes are catchy and it's classic Seuss style. Highly recommend!!             Horton Hears A Who!67 reviews Dr. Seuss Random House Books for Young Readers, 1954 One of the all-time great children's books Horton Hears a Who is one of the best children's books ever written. It has everything - entertaining, fun writing, a memorable main character, good illustrations, and a good message. A few people have said that this story has an anti-abortion theme. I admit that this thought also came to my mind; however, I think this is irrelevant regardless of your views on this issue. Children surely will ...             Arm in Arm31 reviews Remy Charlip MacMillan Publishing Company, 1980 An Old Friend I've had this book in my bookcase all this time! I got it as a gift, back in 69'-70' from a family friend back when the book 1st came out, and I'm now almost 50 years old and still enjoying this book! It was a joy to read, back when I was 9 years old, and many of the stories and images stayed with me through the years. Every so often, when I want a blast from the past, I dig it out. It's a ...             Mots d'Heures: Gousses, Rames20 reviews Luis d'Antin van Rooten Penguin (Non-Classics), 1980 Wonderful puzzles If you can read French and if you grew up heaaring Mother Goose rhymes (in English) this book is a MUST HAVE. It presents an almost credible scholarly work about some fragments (in French) from an old civilization. If you will read those fragments aloud, you"ll be able to hear (in English) well known nursery rhymes. Truly fascinating, and soetimes challenging! (Especially if you had never ...             The Owl and the Pussycat24 reviews Edward Lear Putnam Juvenile, 1991 The Owl and the Pussycat ISBN 0399231935 - A quick glance through the pages of the board book edition from G. P. Putnam's Sons didn't give me high hopes for this book, but I have - once again - been surprised by what can work in a board book! The owl and the pussycat hop in a boat and head out to sea, where Owl proposes in song. They buy a ring from a pig and are married by a turkey... and that, you have to know, ...             The Sneetches and Other Stories70 reviews Dr. Seuss Random House, 1961 Very Satisfied This item was delivered in a very timely manner and was brand new as stated. Thanks so much.             A Where the Sidewalk Ends149 reviews Shel Silverstein Marion Boyars Publishers Ltd, 2003 I LOVE this book! I bought this to keep at my house for my grandchildren and I to enjoy. They all live out of town and it is nice to have something here they don't have at home. But there are so many cute poems, I find myself calling my 3 year granddaughter on the phone and reading a short poem to her. What a great memory I have - even though she may not remember it! :-)             Fox in Socks (Beginner Books(R))77 reviews Dr. Seuss Random House Books for Young Readers, 1965 Oh, my brothers! Oh, my sisters! This is Seuss at his best! All kids enjoy this book, mostly because of Dr. Seuss' infectious rhyming and made-up words, but partially because it's fun to hear your mom or dad stumble and trip over silly tongue-twisters. My boys cheer if I can make it all the way through the freezy cheese trees. I bring this book with me when I do story times, because it's a consistent crowd favorite. Nothing like ...             Boot Camp for Your Brain: A No-Nonsense Guide to the SAT I124 reviews M. Denmark Manning Xlibris Corporation, 2001 No-nonsense is right This book by far beats out any SAT prep book that I have seen. Other books will give you general suggestions on how to take the test, like the tried and true process of elimination or some elementary math concepts that will guarantee a handful of right answers on the math section. Boot Camp for Your Brain delineates (sat word!) each section of the test, breaking down exactly what you need to ...             "I Can't" Said the Ant30 reviews Polly Cameron Scholastic, 1961 My favorite book 37 years ago This was the first book I ever read all by myself, with the help of the rhymes and picture clues. I read it over and over, and still recite some of the rhymes to my children. I found a copy several years ago through a scholastic book order at school, thank goodness. I've written several lesson plans around this book and read it to my kindergarten class every year. All the children love it! I ...             Duchess Bakes a Cake17 reviews Virginia Kahl MacMillan Pub Co, 1955 Great Read Aloud Great read-aloud story for up to age 10. (My son is a mature 11 yr. old, but he still thinks it's entertaining.) Besides a funny story line, its a great way to introduce middle-ages and rhyming to children. We discovered it when we used to do Five-In-A-Row lessons for our homeschool. One of our favorite short-stories!             Work at Home Now: The No-nonsense Guide to Finding Your Perfect Home-based Job, Avoiding Scams, and Making a ...12 reviews Christine Durst, Michael Haaren Career Press, 2009 Do You Know What You Can Do With This Book? If your like most who searched the web, and perhaps tried one or more work-at-home opportunities, you know it's hard to find legitimate opportunities. The internet is full of scams, hype, and companies that go out of business without paying you a dime. To avoid the trial and error process in your pursuit of a legitimate opportunity to earn a paycheck working from home, I suggest you buy this ...             My Dog May Be a Genius12 reviews Jack Prelutsky Greenwillow Books, 2008 Great comtemporary funny-funky poetry This is a great book to have on hand for browsing from beginning readers to middle grades. Oh, OK. Adults are allowed to read and smile, too. Not all poems are manageable for the early grades to digest independently, but all are fun if the listener can find a friendly reader to help out. Think how much you loved Shel Silverstein, and buy this to add to you collection of poetry for children. ...             On Beyond Zebra (Turtleback School & Library Binding Edition)18 reviews Dr. Seuss Turtleback, 1980 Left quite an impression... Loved this book as a child. Fast-forward thirty-some years, I am a computational linguist with a fascination for exotic writing systems. Coincidence? In think not.             There Was a Coyote Who Swallowed a Flea19 reviews Jennifer Ward Rising Moon, 2007 mom I first found this book at the local library and my 3 yr old liked it so much I bought it for her. The words are so easy to read and the rhythm is so good she sings the books all day long. I would highly recommend this book for preschoolers who like to roll words off their tongues as well as younger children learning to read             The 85% Solution: How Personal Accountability Guarantees Success -- No Nonsense, No Excuses11 reviews Jossey-Bass, 2009 Take action towards accountabiilty When it comes to accountability, Linda Galindo knows what she's talking about. I've followed her work for 15 years and she knows how to make a difference in an organization. As a CEO of a digital marketing agency, I work with a strong management team that influences a diversity of creative and technical employees. These diverse personalities show accountability in different ways. Linda's book ...             Nonsense! He Yelled19 reviews Roger Eschbacher Dial, 2002 My kids loved this book! OK, I am confused. Do the "professional" reviewers not have kids? My daughter loved this book. We read it often (no offense to the author, I can't read any book every night and stay sane). She loves the rhymes and then we of course start a silly game where we have to make up a rhyme with her or her friends names. This is truely my only complaint. Have you ever tried to rhyme Jessica or ...             Diary of a Medical Intuitive: One Woman's Eye-Opening Journey from No-Nonsense E.R. Nurse to Open-Hearted ...17 reviews Christel Nani RN PhD Queen's Court Press, 2004 WOW Introduction to the Mind-Body Connection This book is a WOW! I picked it up because I love reading about medicine, but I quickly found out this book goes way beyond that! It is a fascinating read about medicine, but in a different way! It's a really great introduction to the intriguing world of energy medicine and the mind-body connection. It is Christel's own story about growing into her amazing gift as a medical intuitive and has ...             Good, Better, Best Wines: A No-Nonsense Guide to Popular Wines18 reviews Carolyn Evans Hammond Alpha, 2010 Great gift!! I love this book!! My son gave this to me for Mother's Day and it fits perfectly in my bag. I've pulled it out at the grocery store and the wine stores as well. Now I don't just stand there in front of the wines reading the back of the labels hoping I selected a good one. You cannot go wrong with this book! I plan to give this as a hostess gift to my best friend who is having "girls weekend" at ...             Scranimals14 reviews Jack Prelutsky Greenwillow Books, 2006 Crazy Animal Fun During the story a boy and a girl went on a trip the Scranimal Island. They saw a lot of animals such as the RHINOCEROSE, a group SPINACHICKENS, a caravan of CAMELBERTA PEACHES, a lonely POTATOAD, one CARDINALBACORE, couple of HIPPOPOTAMUSHROOMS, talkative PARROTTERS, a sweet PORCUPINEAPPLE, fierce BROCCOLIONS, a nimble ANTELOPETUNIA, an unsuccessful STORMY PETRELEPHANT, content TOUCANEMONES, ...              search for books accountability, avoiding, beginner, binding, classic, duchess, edition, excuses, eye-opening, finding, guarantees, hearted, home-based, intuitive, library, medical, no-nonsense, nonsense, open-hearted, perfect, personal, popular, pussycat, scranimals, sidewalk, sneetches, solution, swallowed, turtleback, visionary books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
