How The Grinch Stole Christmas is a classic tale about greed, materialism, and the kindness of man for his fellow man all wrapped up in one great big package! The illustrations are wonderful and the rhyming text impresses me. This is a story by Dr. Seuss that is so popular it was made into a Christmastime TV special; and it deserves every bit of recognition that it gets. (Note: this story is ...             Advanced Water Distribution Modeling and Management96 reviews Haestad Methods, Thomas M. Walski, ... Haestead Press, 2003 Great to have everything under one roof I wish I knew of this book's existence years ago. For too many years, I have been using several other reference books to "answer" my never ending questions and doubts on modeling and related subjects. It even has reference on non-concontinuous flow condition. A great book with lots of "weight." The price was right, too, I received this gem free as a bonus for signing up to attend a wwebcast ...             Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul: 101 Stories of Life, Love and Learning (Chicken Soup for the Soul)474 reviews Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, ...

His writing is stunningly succinct and his snappy writing style infuses this book with an impressive energy. His astute observations are deliciously poetic and he seems to have a photographic memory. His descriptions either infuse your mind with vivid pictures of complete chaos or shock you with laughter. He claims slavery still exists in America ...             Dancing Barefoot120 reviews Wil Wheaton O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2004 Dancing Barefoot or Why Wil Wheaton ROCKS This book is great.

The format threw me for a bit, but, once used to the manner in which the author was to tell his story, I went on to enjoy this delightful story. Next came this book..."Last Days of Summer." I found the author's website and wrote him an e-mail; I was about thirty pages short of the book's end at that moment. I sent another ...             Information Technology Control and Audit90 reviews Auerbach Publications, 1999 Useful reference material This book has some material relevant to the CISA examination based on the 2003 content areas, although it is not organized or focused as a CISA examination guide. If you are looking for CISA review material for the test, I would strongly suggest to stick with ISACA's combination of review manual and questions CD. I also searched everywhere for study aids for this grueling test and ended up using ...             14 Qualities of Successful Musicians, Songwriters, and Music Business Professionals117 reviews David Hooper, David R. Hooper Kathode Ray Music, 2005 Awesome! I just got my copy of this CD and I listened to it immediatly. David Hooper, gives lots of great ideas for being successful in music and any business, or life. Some of the things he talked about re-affirmed what I had been doing, but he gave enough 'new' ideas to really kick my music career to the next level!             Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Book 3)2598 reviews J.K. Rowling, Mary GrandPré Scholastic, 1999 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 ...             Water Distribution Modeling270 reviews Haestad Methods, Donald V. Chase, ... Haestad, 2001 Water Distribution Modeling Water Distribution Modeling has been a very useful resource for us with our water distribution systems GIS integration.             The Boomer Bible34 reviews R. F. Laird Workman Publishing Company, 1991 Boomers: Hate, Despise, Surpass? The Boomer Bible begins with bad history: the kind of history that Boomers learned, but didn't pay attention to. It goes further into the invention of the Boomer culture: do what you want to, blame everyone else for what goes wrong. Finally, it ends with an invitation to surpass this most pathetic generation, knowing that while most of what they do is a mistake and misguided, they'll only blame ...             Angel Sanctuary, Volume 13 (Angel Sanctuary)41 reviews Kaori Yuki VIZ Media LLC, 2006 Angel Sanctuary This book is mainly focused around Setsuna Mudo and his forbidden love with his little sister Sara.

I would have never thought a book titled GETTING THE MOST FROM YOUR YELLOW PAGE ADVERTISING would make for compelling reading, but I was wrong.

I would consider this book essential for small business owners or anyone who is interesting in producing yellow page copy. Though ...             Passionate Presence: Experiencing the Seven Qualities of Awakened Awareness36 reviews Catherine Ingram Gotham Books, 2004 Food for the soul This lovely book shares the wisdom of a teacher of silent meditation and Dharma Dialogues on awakened awareness.

WOW!!             Terror at Beslan: A Russian Tragedy with Lessons for America's Schools39 reviews John Giduck Archangel Group, 2005 Excellent read, but before you buy more books by this author, read this. I found this was an excellent book. While the military is at war, America is at the mall, and this book aims to try and get our country of ostriches to pull their heads out of the sand and DO something about the possibility of a terrorist threat in American schools. This book was well-written, packed full of information and suggestions.

Rather, what you're supposed to do is forbid the reading of the books or put them on the highest shelf and then say to your children that the books are very private and you ...             The Well-Fed Writer: Back For Seconds A Second Helping Of "How-To" For Any Writer Dreaming of Great Bucks and ...40 reviews Peter Bowerman Fanove Publishing, 2004 So good I had to stop reading... Ok, before I explain the title of this review, let me make an embarrassing admission. I originally picked this book up at a library instead of purchasing it. I did this because I have wasted the rough equivallent of 2 wheelbarrels full of cash on copywriting courses that turned out to be complete and utter wastes of my time, money, and remaining hair waiting to be pulled out... If you have ...             Tacky the Penguin39 reviews Helen Lester Houghton Mifflin/Walter Lorraine Books, 1988 Funny and touching Helen Lester's books all combine sweet stories with terrific humor that both children and adults can enjoy.
