Incredible and Inspiring!
This book is truly a masterpiece! I read this book because I am a Clay Aiken fan, and I thought, 'Hey, a book by Clay Aiken, this should be cool.' I would recommend this book for anyone! Even if you aren't a fan of Clay, this is still an inspiring book. Let's just say: I laughed, I cried, it moved me!" I'm ordering the book and the audio cds. This is one of those books that you read front to ...

Great Classic Book
My 3 year old son loves this book. When we go for a walk around the neighborhood, he wants to pretend that we are going on a "bear hunt" and we recite the book. Great book for imagination.

Just Plain Wow!
Hoping to make the most of my new garden, I picked up this book and hoped some of the techniques would work. WOW doesn't even begin to describe how great this was. The techniques outlined in this book will take a relatively small garden and produce veggies like you've never imagined! I can hardly wait for next year when I'll have more time to build beds and plant even more! I really believe ...

'If God Was Like Man' is an AMAZING Book!
I read this book from cover to cover two times in a row and am still amazed at the clarity given by God in the messages for 'all of humanity.' The only part I felt myself entirely change my view was regarding the death penalty, which I used to advocate. Since reading this book I no longer do, and the reasons are so simply put, I can't imagine anyone not changing their views. The areas ...

Wonderful Bible Study Help
This is one of the most helpful books I have ever had. Not only is it a daily devotional thought, but it explains how the words used in the Bible relate to our every-day lives. After I saw how wonderful it was, I went back to Amazon and purchased two more copies for gifts, and they are in daily use and much appreciated. Highly recommended.

Great book if you don't mind having to read it all the time!
My 17month daughter loves this book! I was into Richard Scarry books growing up and really wanted my baby to like it. Initially I was afraid the illustrations would be too busy for her, but that is clearly not the case. This book is one of three books (the others are big book of animals and book of words) she brings to me just about every thirty minutes, which is driving me a little crazy but ...

Simply Fantastic.
Man, so glad I got this book. I pondered buying it for a few weeks as it sat in my cart and then I couldn't ignore the reviews any longer. I bought and am so glad I did. It's a page turner. Thought I wouldn't like the format being diary entries and all but found it just as engaging if not more than any book I've ever enjoyed. This book made me laugh and cry and want to know more every step of the ...

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. ...

Crazy about Poemcrazy
I am completely crazy about this book and I don't normally read poetry books or books about writing poetry. But as a HS librarian I was trying to find something to help my English teachers who struggle every year to come up with lesson ideas for their poetry units. I struck gold with this book. I actually took six of Wooldridge's ideas and created lesson plans from them which I share with the ...

This book evokes the immigrant experience
The Arrival In this wordless graphic novel, through magnificent illustrations, Tan captures the disorientation immigrants may feel toward their new surroundings. It depicts the journey of one man who seems both accepted and rejected by his new country. The only writing is in an invented alphabet, which motivates the viewer to feel confused just like the immigrants must feel when they encounter a ...

Echelon - An Informative Cliff-hanger
Unfortunately, the suspense and rapid movement of events in the book kept me up, reading late at night to find out how the drama would unfold I also found the book very informative in the area of modern communication monitoring. It's a good read.

Insightful and Hilarious
Susan Shapiro's memoir sparkles with humor and insight that any writer could put to good use. Every chapter chronicles her courtship of and relationship with a different literary mentor, each of whom she psychoanalyzes into a substitute familial role - the emotionally available father, the kind older brother, the intellectually-minded maternal figure. What makes this work is Shapiro's endearing ...
