Ella enchanted - me!
She really did. This is one of my absolute favorite books. I first read it as a kid when it came out, and fell in love, completely and totally. Re-reading it today brought back so many memories. I felt an even deeper appreciation for the depth of the character development and plot twists. This is definitely one of my top ten recommended books. However, there is one nagging plot gap that's ...

5 Stars from a very unfancy guy
I absolutely love this book. I am not fancy. My four girls are not fancy. But we adore this book. It is about a girl who has passion and wants to share it with the world. Go for it Nancy! Even when things don't go as planned, the family rallies around her and life goes on. This book is about much more than fanciness. I love the illustrations. The image of the family making an "entrance" ...

Happy Mom
I had this box set when I was a young girl and the pages became very worn. Unfortunately, it became lost in one of many moves. I am so happy to share this gift with my daughter. It is a beautiful colorful box set. She loves to read and I know she will enjoy this special series. It shares special meaning as we live in the hometown of Almonzo Wilder.

The Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles

Julie Andrews Edwards

HarperCollins, 1996

Perfect book for a family car trip
We read this book on a long car trip to our 4 year old. The DNA/genetics parts were over his head (although we likened cells to Legos and DNA to blueprints), but the rest of it was thoroughly understood and enjoyed. It kept us all completely engrossed and wondering what was going to happen next, which is a great way to pass time on a long road trip. The Professor's exercises for Lindy and her ...

HarperCollins, 2005

Thank goodness I read it !
I so enjoyed the first 5 of the series that, after reading some negative reviews, I didn't want to "spoil it" by reading #6. But I did - thank goodness! What I've learned is...not only have I a different view of cats....not only do I so admire the Author....I've learned to ignore negative reviews and make up my own mind (but don't we know that already)? Of course we do! The Book was a ...

Gotta Read This One! C.O. from Annapolis
Are you looking for a book about curious girls and a mentally disturbed mother? Well probably not, but I know of a book that is about all of those things but is also very interesting. It is called So B. It by Sarah Weeks. The main characters are Heidi, Bernadette (or Dette), and Mama. My favorite character is Heidi because she is really curious and adventurous. I have a Text-to-Self ...

My favorite baby / toddler book of all time!
This book is fabulous! I bought it when my son was born 12 years ago and I can still recite ALL the lines from memory. This was both of my boys favorite book and the only board book that I have retained through the years. I now buy this as a gift for all parents-to-be. You won't be sorry when purchasing this book.

Tananarive Due

Harpercollins, 1997

One of the most exciting books I've ever read...
I loved this book. I have read it 3 times over the past 7 or 8 years, believe it or not. I love what I call "black woman fiction" books, but this books takes on a whole different spin than your usual urban setting, boy meets girl, man troubles fiction. It has historical and religious undertones, chronicles of secret orders, immortality and a strong love story as well. The author, Tananarive ...
