Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone Japanese Edition

J.K. Rowling, 2000

Anniversary Ed
I am a huge fan of Harry Potter, but I must say I did delay ordering this book. I just didnt think a new cover and a few extras was worth the price. Now, having seen the pictures put up by others, I am so glad I did order it! I think the new cover looks gorgeous and cant wait for Amazon to ship my order! (I am in NZ and so have selected for all my books to arrive in 1 shipment to save on postage. ...

Great Book and Very Well Received
I purchased My Utmost For His Highest as an appreciation gift for the Church School Staff Members at my church. The Book was very well received and appreciated. Some of the older members were especially pleased with the Large Print. I definitely recommend this product.

Count of Monte Cristo

Alexandre Dumas

W. Clement Stone, 1984

Great copy of unabridged Count of Monte Cristo
We only recently found out that all our copies of The Count of Monte Cristo were abridged. We checked this out of our local library and liked it so much we bought a copy for our home library. The type setting is very readable and best of all, it's not abridged. The story is a classic and a great read. I recommend it for everyone.

The monster at the end of this book (A little golden book)

Jon Stone

Western Pub. in conjuction with Children's Television Workshop, 1971

Spoilers!
So it turns out that the "monster" is actually the protagonist which, while having shades of postmodern antihero angst that wil reverberate strongly with fans of, say, Kafka or Burroughs, really threw me for a loop as a kid. My two year old, on the other hand, has no problem with this conceit, and wants me to read it to him regularly. He'll understand how cruel this all is when he get a ...

Susan Cooper

Simon Pulse, 1993

One of the best series ever written...
I can't even begin to describe this series and I won't try to. I'm afraid I'd only do it a disservice! Susan Cooper says SO much in so few eloquent words that her books are rather like listening to fine music. I rank this easily with the Narnia series as well as Lord of the Rings. And while I adore the Harry Potter books and think JK is a fabulous writer, I truly feel that even they cannot ...

Love it, Love it, Love it.....
I had a paperback copy of this book, and it really helped me to grow closer to God. So, I bought the journal..one for myself and a couple as birthday gifts for my friends. If you are searching for a closer walk...this book will help you find it...

Nosson Scherman

Mesorah Publications, Limited, 1993

Best Chumash on market
The are many "Bibles" on market but ArtScroll has the best! They have the best covers and commentaries. None compare. A close second is Gutnick but ArtScroll has been around much longer.

Five Smooth Stones

Ann Fairbairn

Bantam Books, 1977

An excellent period piece.
Having read this book while in Vietnam in the 60's I found it to be a realistic assessment of what African Americans had to live through in America during and before that period. While racial intolerance may have been especially noticeable in the deep South, it wasn't much different in the Northern States. The elite northern academic institutions smiled politely on the surface while just below ...

Magic Tree House #37: Dragon of the Red Dawn (A Stepping Stone Book(TM))

Mary Pope Osborne

Random House Books for Young Readers, 2007

A fabulous addition to a wonderful series
This wonderful adventure with a Japanese poet was added to our collection just in time. An article ran about him in National Geographic, and my eldest son would not have had a clue who he was if he had not read this book. I think it is delightful how Mary Pope Osborne uses these texts to expose children to places, ideas and situations that might not otherwise be accessible to them. Definitely ...

Napoleon Hill, W. Clement Stone

Prentice Hall, 1991

Among my first batch of books...with greatest influence on attaining personal achievement in life!
The first batch of significant books that had the greatest influence on me in terms of attaining personal achievement includes mostly Napoleon Hill's books: - The Law of Success; - Think & Grow Rich; - The Keys to Success; - Success through a Positive Mental Attitude; - Succeed & Grow Rich through Persuasion; The others were from Clement Stone, Dale Carnegie, & Earl Nightingale. That ...

Nankering With the Rolling Stones

James Phelge

Chicago Review Press, 2000

Ah, joy! Now I know what Nanker-Phelge finally is (and why)!
This book is precious and priceless! Older Stones fans (like me), especially those familiar with Sixties London and the districts where The Stones lived in 1963, will delight in the easily readable and so evidently true stories of The Stones' very early days when Mick, Keith and Brian were more than teenagers but not quite mature adults. Phelge has covered many of the bases and truly gives you ...

Lin Wellford

North Light Books, 1994

A VERY USEFUL BOOK. NOT MUCH TO NOT LIKE ABOUT THIS ONE!
I enjoyed this work from the moment I opened it. This book is not only "pretty," it is actually useful. The illustrations are perfect and uncomplicated. The text is easy to follow. Even someone with minimum artistic tallent, such as myself, can actually creat something quite pretty and eye catching. The author offers step by step instructions which even includes how to choose your rock. She ...

Hard Shell Word Factory, 2003

From Print Publishing to Electronic Publishing
This is an excellent resource properly subtitled as "The Definitive Guide." As a print publisher of sixteen years, I wanted to learn about electronic publishing and spent hours on the Internet wading through the various, and often conflicting, information. I purchased a copy of "Weave Your Web" by Karen Wiesner and after reading it decided that I had to have her book on Electronic Publishing. ...

Warner Books, 1993

The Heaven Tree Trilogy is heavenly to read
The first book in the trilogy, The Heaven Tree, tells the story of master stonemason Harry Talvace as he is hired by Ralf Isambard to build him a great cathedral at Parfois along the Welsh Marches. Isambard also brings courtesan Benedetta along with him as mistress, although he is unaware that Benedetta bears a lifelong unrequited love for Harry.

Harrison

Calif.) Rolling Stone (San Francisco, Olivia Harrison

Scribner, 2004

Lovely Tribute to a Lovely Man
Having been a "LLOG" (Lifetime Lover of George)I have read plenty about him. In general, his music is the best way to get to know George: it is unique, multi-textured, honest, witty, loving and spiritual. However, for reasons I certainly can't fathom, generally his post-Beatles work (with about two exceptions) got no respect! Of course I loved the photos, but in my opinion the written ...

Lust for life

Irving Stone

The Heritage reprints, 1937

A Man Amongst Men
This is a beautiful novel about a beautiful human being. If you love Van Gogh's paintings (he is my personal favorite of all painters) then by all means, you need to read this wonderful book. In his prose, Stone is able to paint a vivid, vibrant, illuminating portrait of an amazing artist. I was truly blown away and completely consumed from the first chapter on. I actually read this fine ...

He Still Moves Stones

Max Lucado

W Publishing Group, 1993

Best Book by Lucado
I've read most of Max Lucado's books and this is not only my favorite by him but my favorite book of all time. (Well, except for the Bible.) This book is helpful in some way for anyone who reads it. I have given this book as a gift for so many people going through a tough time and it has helped each one. No one tells a story in quite the way Lucado does. It is hard to put his books ...

Childhood Treasure
I wish I could give it 10 stars!!! I fell in love with this book the first time I read it. It tells the story of a little girl who has a real Witch for a mother. All she wants is to be normal and finally gets a chance at it. Her adventures and struggles are heartfelt and engaging and I found myself wanting to be her friend. The fact she only had one dress didnt stop her determination to get to ...
