It's great comprehensive self-help guide for individuals beginning with the personality self-assessment and ending in enormous amounts of insightful information about each type, what to ...

Loved it years ago.
I read this years ago and loved it. I saw it this afternoon as I was cleaning my office and I just might read it again. It's a wonderful book and I just decided I am going to read it again. It's tough out there for a lot of people and being in real estate sales is certainly a bit challenging.

Diary of Anne Frank
This was a fascinating book. You relive her days in every detail in the secret Annex. It is a heart wrenching story. Hers and other victims' descriptions of the horrors of World War II should make everyone even more determined to make sure no one person or country ever repeats those atrocities ever again. It is not a happy book.Anne Frank: Beyond the Diary - A Photographic Remembrance

I continually use this book and the ideas within it. I can make a lesson fit my preschool class or my art class of fifteen year olds. The ideas are fresh, fun and engaging.

This book was an extreme bargain. I was very pleased. Looked new,except it look like it was on a bottom of a box that got dropped. The binding was a little krinkled, like the review said, but it doesn't effect the quaility or usefullness of the book. Excellent bargain

Great Cross Curricular Book
This would be a great book for cross curricular work in math and literature in upper elementary classrooms. A fun read with lots of great material to work with.

Oh, the Places You'll Go!
I have given copies of this book to several high school graduates over the years. This time I gave it to my niece who will be attending Texas Tech in the fall. She absolutely loves it and says it will stay on her desk to remind he of the future. I love the book myself and so do my own children who got their copies upon graduation years ago from one of my friends. A real winner!!!

deserves to be read
A book containing two narratives; one fiction, one factual explaining how the fiction part came about. This is about life in France, when the Germans and Hitler were invading Paris around the 40's. It goes in depth about what the French civilians go through, from children to adults. This book is chilling at its very best, its descriptions so realistic that even I had trouble trying to imagine ...
Napoleon's Pyramids

HarperCollins e-books, 2007
Great Historical Read!!
I really enjoyed this book. Having visited the Pyramids recently, I would have loved to have read this prior to going there. The sense of intrigue and mystery that the author sets around the Giza pyramids would have made the trip that much more exciting. Also, having lived in Waterloo, Belgium for a few years, I enjoyed the focus around Napoleon and the insights into his character. And finally, ...

Excellent Guide
I really like the insights into the Federal hiring process provided by this book. Since the author is a full-time Federal hiring manager, I find her information refreshing, helpful and enlightening. She provides a "real world" perspective about what to do and what to expect. Although she gives a high level view of how to write a Federal resume, her example resumes are a very good guide to follow. ...

Great for toddlers!
We took this book out from the library and my toddler and I both loved it so much that I am now purchasing it. The pictures are great and really grab my daughter's interest. She loves finding the lady bug that is "hidden" on each page.

Good story
Follett really knows how to tell a story and he always has so many interesting characters in his books. His hero's always have flaws which make them more easy to relate to. This time the hero's are a group of women trained to go into France before D Day to sabotage a phone exchange that will help to disrupt German communications during the invasion. It is well done with lots of twists and ...

My Grandson Loves It!
I bought this book for my 3-year-old grandson because he is very into trucks, backhoes, diggers, steam rollers, fire engines, and anything else on wheels. He loves this book and wants it read to him over and over. The story as well as the pictures are just charming. I will probably buy more books along these lines by Kevin Lewis.

Love, love, love this story!! My husband is a stockbroker and mowed lawns to put himself through college so this story is near and dear to him. It is also a fun way to introduce kids to the stock marker and business in a very entertaining way. Love it!

Love Richard Scarry!
I grew up with these books, and I thought it was time for my 6 year old daughter to be introduced to them... and I was not disappointed. She loves them! The pictures are so colorful and funny, and I love that there are the picture names next to the objects to help her learn to read. I (still) love reading them!

A Great Book
I'm a nine year old boy from NY. This book is funny and serious, too. This boy Greg wants to make lots of money while copycats try to steal his ideas. He makes money by selling little chunky comics. I recommend this book to everyone. WB
