Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Book 3)

The series truly begins.
I love Prisoner of Azkaban. I think that this was the novel that really hooked me into the series. I have a hard time writing a literary review of any of the Rowling novels mainly because I do not feel like I'm reading a novel when I read these books, I feel like I'm on vacation. I'm transported into another world and forget to look at the subtext or deeply analyze anything that the writer is ...
The 39 Clues: Card Pack

Great Accompaniment to the Book
The collector cards are great to accompany the book. The cards give hints to help kids follow the 39 Clues. They can also earn game points that could lead to prizes. Each card pack contains 16 randomly assorted cards and no two card packs are the same --- which makes for lots of excitement. - Susanna K. Hutcheson

Harry Potter Land
Have used Amazon.com in the past with great satisfaction. This experience was highly disappointing. When initially ordering the 6 book boxed set of Harry Potter books, I ATTEMPTED ordering with a NO CHARGE for shipping. I understood delivery would be slightly longer and did not object. The problem started when I tried to check out. Amazon.com had my credit card info from prior purchases yet when ...

My daughter loves to do homework!
My daughter entered Kindergarten this year and was not thrilled about having to practice letters and read at home, however, these books got her excited about reading! She knows that at the beginning of each book are the sounds she will be reading throughout the entire book. The simplicity of 'Mat Sat' and other simple sentences seems to really help her feel a sense of accomplishment. I love ...

Very original!
This was a very unique book and I really enjoyed it! It did take me a few chapters to get completely absorbed, but after that I was thoroughly interested in the plot and how everything would be resolved. The book is unique in multiple ways, but two stand out for me. The first of which, is that it's probably one of the least predictable books I've read lately. You can guess how the overall ...

Everyone's Favorite . . .
I honestly have no idea how many times I have read this book. I read it first as an assignment in the eighth grade; most recently, at the age of 41, I read it aloud to three of my children. As with the more recent readings that I recall, I choked up a bit at the end as Scout is experiencing the tragedy and love that surrounds her in the form of her conservatively eccentric father, her ...
