I can SOOO relate to this story, between running our a----- off, we passed around this book and it had everyone howling with laughter! It rang so true, we swore it had to have been written by a nurse!!             Librarian's Night Before Christmas (Night Before Christmas Series)7 reviews David Davis Pelican Publishing Company, 2007 Timely parody I read a review on another bookseller Web site that was critical because this book is not really geared to children. True, and if your intent is to acquire a children's book, keep on searching. I am a librarian who works for a labor union that represents many public librarians and in this year of budget cutting and layoffs, this book rings loud, true, and clear. And, yes, it IS political but ...             The Principal's Night Before Christmas (Night Before Christmas Series)6 reviews Steven L. Layne, James Rice Pelican Publishing Company, 2004 THE AUTHOR AND ARTIST CERTAINLY NAILED THIS ONE! What a wonderful book. What a wonderful gift this would make for your local principal, or any teacher, for that matter. The author has used the old Night Before Christmas poem and modified it to fit school principals. The book is actually hilarious as it is so, so true. The author has pulled no punches here, from some of the brat kids in this school, to the impossible to please parent, to the ...             Christmas in New Orleans2 reviews Peggy Scott Laborde, John Magill Pelican Publishing Company, 2009 A CRESCENT CITY CHRISTMAS IS UNLIKE ANY OTHER While many cities celebrate Christmas in ways that are unique to their area one would be hard pressed to find a city as unique and appealing during the holiday season as New Orleans.

All of this thanks to Peggy Scott ...             An Irish Night Before Christmas (Night Before Christmas Series)5 reviews Sarah Kirwan Blazek, James Rice Pelican Publishing Company, 1995 Nollaig Hona Guit--Merry Christmas to you in Irish I was attending a small Christmas party with fellow Irish speakers, when during the feastivities a seanahie (storyteller)read An Irish night before Christmas. He brought back my youth in Ireland with Father Christmas. He read the story as if we were youngsters again, showing us the pictures on each page.

She looked me in ...             Texas Night Before Christmas Coloring Book3 reviews James Rice Pelican Publishing Company, 1989 Beautiful illustrations, lots of fun This book has beautiful illustrations that really bring the story to life. The classic tale of the night before Christmas told with a Texas twang, it will delight adults, too. James Rice replaces Santa's reindeer with a team of Longhorns, and the winter snow with the Texas dust. It's even more fun if you can find a Texan to read it out loud!             Pennsylvania Dutch Night Before Christmas (Night Before Christmas Series)11 reviews Chet Williamson, James Rice Pelican Publishing Company, 2000 Helping keep a dying culture alive! I grew up in PA Dutch country, I still live there and this book really brought back a lot of memories! It reminded me of my grandparents and their friends who would speak PA Dutch around the dining room table on a Sunday afternoon. The story itself is hilarious to anyone who's grown up in central PA's small PA Dutch towns. Would greatly recommend to anyone who wants to teach their children a ...             Why Cowboys Sleep With Their Boots on6 reviews Laurie Lazzaro Knowlton Pelican Publishing Company, 1995 Fantastic bedtime story! My 4 year old son loves this book! He dreams of being a cowboy one day, and this book just makes him giggle! I woud recommend this to anyone who has kids that like cowboys or silly stories.

I had the oppertunity to meet Jenny in person a few years back and she gave my son and autographed copy of the Cajun Night After Christmas with a "gator" and my son was thrilled.

The illustrations and text go ...             Cajun Night Before Christmas [CAJUN NIGHT BEFORE XMAS]1 review Howard(Author) ; Trosclair(Author); Rice, James(Illustrator) Jacobs Pelican Publishing Company, 1992 Crazy Cajun! The text is written in the Cajun dialect. "An' all t'ru de house...' Its fun to read and will make the kids laugh when they hear you talk funny. St. Nick uses alligators instead of reindeer.             Best Editorial Cartoons of the Year: 2009 Edition2 reviews Pelican Publishing Company, 2008 Solid entry in the series. Another solid collection of political cartoons, as edited by Charles Brooks. Many of the cartoons deal with our historic election of Barack Obama as our president. Also covered are Hillary Clinton, the war in Iraq, "W," etc. My only complaint? I wish there would be more cartoons present in these books. I love editorial cartoons, and this book could be double the size and I'd still want more!             Hillbilly Night Afore Christmas (Night Before Christmas Series)1 review Noel Thomas Pelican Publishing Company, 1983 A different version of the Night Before Christmas. What would a night before christmas be if their were no reindeer, only bears? And Santa Claus's name wasn't Santa, but Sainty? If it took place in a cabin? It would be a Hillbilly Night before christmas!! A great book!             Night Before Christmas in Texas, That Is4 reviews Leon A. Harris Pelican Publishing Company, 1977 A great gift to welcome new commers to Texas! In 1968 when my parents moved to Texas they received this book as a gift. Inside the cover their friends wrote, "A few things are different in this great state. We just wanted to keep you posted. Hope ya'll are working on your accents!" Almost 50 years after its first printing this book is still delightful! It captures the image of Texas that, although not always true, has made it a famous ...             McGuire's Irish Pub Cookbook10 reviews Jessie Tirsch Pelican Publishing Company, 1998 Excellent Irish Content in Irish-American Pub Recipes. `McGuire's Irish Pub Cookbook' by cookbook author for hire, Jessie Tirsch is a book-length add for the bar and restaurant in Pensacola, Florida by the same name.

Two words of warning to people whom may be ...              search for books anniversary, before, boots, cartoons, christmas, cocina, coloring, cookbook, cookery, cowboys, criolla, edition, editorial, firefighter, hillbilly, irish, librarian, mcguire, miniature, orleans, others, pennsylvania, persuade, persuasion, principal, psychology, puerto, series, their, thinking books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
