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 ...             Paddle-to-the-Sea67 reviews Holling Clancy Holling American Printing House for the Blind, 1971 Paddle to the Sea I LOVE all of Holling Clancy Holling's books, but I have to admit that Paddle to the Sea is my favorite. The story of a little boy who carved a little man in a wooden canoe, and the adventures encounterd by the little man just captured my imagination. I never knew the Great Lakes until after feeling as though I had been there with Paddle to the Sea. H.C. Holling books are works of art packed with ...             Beezus and Ramona39 reviews Beverly Cleary American Printing House for the Blind, 1984 Clever, funny, and irresistible Ask any older sibling about younger siblings, and you'll get one common answer...they're A-N-N-O-Y-I-N-G.

I read this book for the first time when I was in middle school (about 13 years ago) and I was hooked. I read it a million times throughout the next couple of years and enjoyed it each time.

As soon as the UPS truck delivered the book, I started reading it. Unable to tear myself away from it, I then took it to my favorite reading room--the gym. There I spent two hours riding the exercise bike while I read the first two-thirds of the volume.

My six year old daughter who loves all things magical but nothing scary, just loved this book. Her little face had an ear-to-ear grin when Twig became small and especially when the fairy queen appeared. The story works on many levels and led to a rather philosophical discussion about whether or not it was really a dream that Twig had. I highly recommend this book. It's a sweet story with ...             The Saturdays29 reviews Elizabeth Enright American Printing House for the Blind, 1968 Every day should be Saturday When I was nine years old I picked up a copy of Elizabeth Enright's "The Melendy Family" on sale for 25 cents at my school Christmas fair, donated by some eighth-grader who evidently felt she had "outgrown" it.

Hopefully it isn't just a quartet =P Anyway, this series is simply fantastic! A friend recommended it to me, so it bought it, all three of them. Guess what? I finished all of them on the same day.

She has a style of writing that makes you feel as though you have ...             The Newspaper Designer's Handbook33 reviews Tim Harrower McGraw-Hill Companies, 1997 Practical and useful for the professional I am an editor these days.
