In this book, Jean Krueger talks about eating in response to "loss". She has had some profound losses in her life including the deaths of both parents and 3 brothers......but she expands the concept of "loss" to other areas as well. A second point is Krueger's philosophy that weight loss is not only about the pounds. It is about adding things into your life. When you are overweight, you have ...             All I See Is Part of Me37 reviews Chara M. Curtis Illumination Arts Publishing Company, 1994 Seeing the connection in everything This is by far one of my most favorite children's books. "I am part of all I see, and all I see is part of me." Those first two pages sum it up. The illustrations are warm, gentle, and beautiful. If you look closely you can see little elves and fairies hiding in the forest. My girls love to try and find them while we are reading. I have given this book as a gift many times and it is ...             The Nature of Personal Reality: Specific, Practical Techniques for Solving Everyday Problems and Enriching ...71 reviews Jane Roberts Amber-Allen Publ., New World Library, 1994 The best of it's kind... I am reading this book again for the 3rd time. When you lst read it the concepts seem simple but they are complicated and require much thought. Seth whoever/whatever he is, I think was clever to make it seem simple as to not stop anyone from reading it but below these concepts are very important things about being human. I just wish that Jane had thought to perpare a wookbook to go with it. Or ...             Fingerprints #138 reviews HarperCollins e-books, 2001 Awesome! Rae starts out as a normal teenager and she is living a pretty good life. That is until she starts having thoughts that are not hers. She begins to think that she is going crazy, like her mother did before she died in an insane asylum. Then finally Anthony, a guy she met at one of her support groups, figured out that she had a wonderful and amazing gift. But somebody doesnt like this whole ...             Anne of the Island65 reviews L. M. Montgomery Thorndike Pr, 1994 i read this over and over again. this book never gets old. i've had it for so long and now i'm off to college and i still enjoy reading it cover to cover. anne is a great character, one who is easy to love and who explains herself well. the other characters are also quirky. something about this book is very universal, which i think explains why even in this century i still find myself being able to relate to Anne. the plot, ...             Becoming Me (Diary of a Teenage Girl: Caitlin, Book 1)52 reviews Melody Carlson Topeka Bindery, 2000 About Caitlin Caitlin O'Conner is a 15 year old girl who has a true best friend called Beanie Jacobs.

Caitlin realizes then ...             Zoom (Picture Puffin Books (Sagebrush))34 reviews Istvan Banyai Topeka Bindery, 1998 fun, fascinating A friend gave me this book when I was in a super slump. I was amused and amazed as the pictures zoomed away from each other how they put both objects and actions into perspective, not only in terms of size, but also in terms of time and space. The artist cleverly starts with a rooster, a symbol of cockiness, and shows just where he really stands in the giant scheme of things.             Understood Betsy35 reviews Dorothy Canfield Fisher Henry Holt and Co. (BYR), 1999 AWESOME! This book was a joy to read. My daughter read it to her 3 oldest daughter's, a chapter at a time. They could hardly wait for "reading time" and begged for more at the end of each chapter. The life lesson in this book is so valuable. I am pleased that I have my own personal copy.             The Dark Visions Collector's Edition: (The Strange Power/The Possessed/The Passion)33 reviews L.J. Smith Simon Pulse, 1998 I didn't know God himself wrote books! This book is by FAR my favorite book of all time. Kaitlyn Fairchild is my new favorite female character. Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings... Yeah, they don't hold a candle to L.J. Smith's Dark Visions Collector's Edition. Personally, I am AMAZED that this book doesn't get more recognition than it currently does. I would enjoy it more than life itself if this book became a movie. I'm actually ...             The China Garden120 reviews Liz Berry Farrar Straus & Giroux (J), 1996 deeply fabulous Oh, I love this book. I first came across it when a friend lent it to me. That was in 2004. I still have the book. While I am planning on giving it back to her (soon, I swear) I bring up this embarrassing story just to point out what holding power this book has. At this point, I've read it so many times that I don't remember what my initial reaction was. Every time I reread it, though, ...             Emily of Deep Valley22 reviews Maud Hart Lovelace Topeka Bindery, 2001 Favorite of a Betsy-Tacy addict Okay, my secret is out--I'm an addict. These books have entranced me my whole life with their warmth and their wonderful characters. This is how I've learned much of my early-20th century history, as a matter of fact. Much as I adore all of the Betsy books, Emily is my favorite, I think. Her painful shyness and lack of self confidence are overcome by sheer determination and a focus on others ...             Do I Look Fat in This?: Life Doesn't Begin Five Pounds from Now25 reviews Jessica Weiner Simon Spotlight Entertainment, 2005 YOU CAN'T FEEL FAT -- BECAUSE FAT IS NOT A FEELING... If you're tired of dieting, this may be the book for you. Jess's book is a breakthrough experience for anyone who has struggled with self-appearance and self-esteem....and isn't that most of us. She believes that by focusing on what others tell you are your shortcomings-- you miss opportunities to feel connected, sexy and powerful. Whether you're a size 2 , 12 or 22 or beyond-- you can benefit ...             The Salvation29 reviews Simon Pulse, 2004 Coming Together To The End Melinda Metz is a fantastic author. I loved her other Roswell books but this is, by far, the best one yet. I was jumping out of my seet from the first page. I love how Melinda ended the book, it was very twisty and tourney and almost made me cry. When I was done with the book I felt good to know what happens but I also felt sad to know that this was the end of Roswell. It's so depressing ...             Zink30 reviews Cherie Bennett Delacorte Books for Young Readers, 1999 Inspiring Book that tell you of real life courage and bravery. I've read Zink countless times since I got in the 4th grade. Every night, I sit down and go to my favorite parts of the book, and then shead a tear or two as I lay down to sleep. Ever since I first read Zink, I started looked at my own life closer. I noticed how lucky I was to have my hair, not be sick all the time, and not always have Lukemia on my mind. This book is so inspiring for ...             Aura Reading Through All Your Senses: Celestial Perception Made Practical24 reviews Rose Rosetree Women's Intuition Worldwide, 1996 Develop your Reading, Develop Spiritually This book is one of a kind. Most book on aura reading are very limited in the way they teach to develop your abilities. This book cannot fail to help you unravel your gifts because it pinpoints your strengths. It doesn't promise instantaneous and magical aura viewing in "30 seconds!" or in "30 minutes!" Psychic reading is a skill to develop and this book helps you develop it. One of the most ...             The Wainscott Weasel24 reviews Tor Seidler HarperCollins, 1993 Couldn't put it down This was a wonderful story which takes place at a location Mr. Seidler used to visit and that means a lot to him. The weasel society enjoys life and dancing, and even has its own celebrity, Bagley Brown. Bagley has a secret crush that would raise eyebrows if it were discovered, and he questions a pretty weasel's crush on him because he's never done anything great enough to earn the honor of ...             Deadline22 reviews Chris Crutcher HarperTeen, 2007 Great Read for Older Kids I am a middle school teacher and read this book over the holiday break. I really enjoyed it but would recommend it for high school-aged readers. There is some cursing and references to sex, which I'm not saying is bad. As a teacher, I just know I'd have some unhappy parents to deal with if I assigned this to my 6th graders (although they would have really enjoyed the story). Great themes of ...             Asperger's: What Does It Mean to Me?28 reviews Catherine Faherty Future Horizons, 2000 What does it mean to me? This book is good for children who are very verbal and can understand the content. I bought this book for me to do with my 9 year old daughter and she is doing very well with it. I do a little bit at a time and go over previously completed parts to refresh her memory before moving on. I would definitely recommend this to any parent who is trying to teach their child about their disorder.             I'm as Quick as a Cricket32 reviews Audrey Wood Child's Play International, 1998 Beautifully illustrated, wonderfully written This rhyming children's book is terrific toddler reading. The drawings are beautiful and our kids have both loved it. Our two year old loves the animal illustrations and verses. A great pick!             Do Princesses Wear Hiking Boots?23 reviews Carmela LaVigna Coyle, Mike Gordon, ... Rising Moon, 2003 Great for more than the 4-8 set it says! My 2 year old loves this book! And it's so wonderful to see a book that says, yeah, be a princess, but that doesn't mean you can be fun and make messes too! You can still be a real person.
