Thought Provoking and Relevant
+ fascinating and memorable read
+ Very interesting read

The Greatest American of All?
+ Danielle's "Pick..."
+ The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
It being the Fourth of July, or Small Explosives Day as I call it (training kids early to think bombs are fun can pay off with trillions of tax dollars, no questions asked), I am reminded of my favorite American, Mr. Sam Clemens.
I remember it was a hot July day, I was five or six and happily ...

A Favorite
+ I LIKE IT
This is one of my favorite books. I am an avid reader, and there are some books which I have read more than once, but when I think about them years - or even months - later, I cannot for the life of me remember some of the main charactors' names. It is not so with this book. I could not forget it, ...

The true world of Fast Food opens before your eyes!
+ By the Author of Outstanding You
+ highest approval
This book is truly interesting in that it explains a process that many consumers thought that they were already familiar with.
This book will explain why:
1) it always seems the person at the register is being "trained".
