The Sky Is Falling

Sidney Sheldon

HARPER COLLINS, 2000

Predictable Sheldonian Fun
Sheldon is improbable, silly and sometimes frustrating. One of the lines that made me laugh out loud was "she warmed herself in the summer of his arms." This does not mean that I don't enjoy reading the books, however. When I'm in an airport, or stuck in a hotel room, these are perfect. The Sky is Falling requires no deeper thought than "hm" as the pages effortlessly turn. The members of ...

Evan-Moor Educational Publishers, 1998

Daily Language Review books are a must for any teacher!
I have taught 3rd, 5th and 6th grades and will never teach without a DLR book again. They are simple and easy to use in the classroom, but also provide wonderful skills for students. They go beyond the traditional DOL skills and teach more skills that students need to know. These books are set up so that they can be completed in just a small amount of time but you will see a huge ...

Heart-breaking orphan 'homes'
I've just finished reading this enthralling book, _Molly, Child Number 583_ . I have to say once I began reading, I could not put it down. To read about the author's years in the care of the nuns in what is euphemistically termed "homes" was heart-breaking. I recalled passing places like that as a child and wondering what spooky mysterious things were in the great grey stone building behind the ...

Barbour Publishing, Incorporated, 2004

A book that I would read more than once-
I really enjoyed reading this book. It tells a story of a 25 year old "spinster" who is content with the life that she feels God has for her. Her life consists of being a true blessing to all that knows her. Then a new man comes to town. What starts out as friendship may lead to alot more. They both have to believe that God has a purpose in everything that happens, in secret and in public. ...

Longman Dictionary of Language Teaching and Applied Linguistics

Addison Wesley Publishing Company, 1992

Useful Reference Work
For the teacher looking to get a bit more into the theoretical side of language teaching and linguistics, this is an indispensible book. It covers a lot the jargon and terminology that go with the territory and gives a good, pithy overview of most things from syllabus design to grammar. I have found it useful primarily to get my terminology right for assignments, but it is also helps with ...

One of the Best

As events develop, Kinsey must face the fact that she may have been wrong in her judgment of him and in leaving him all of those years ago. Interestingly, their friends from back then are still his friends. His friends believed him and his wife did not. One of the things about the ...

The Call of The Awe
The Call of The Awe By Gene W. Marshall A response by Joe Slicker In these interconnected times, organized religions around the world are spewing out prescriptions of divisiveness, moralisms, hatred and violence that will destroy the world as we know it.

No matter what anyone says, breastfeeding is not always easy. There were times during the first couple weeks of breastfeeding that I thought that I would give up. This book saved me!! I only read the parts that I needed, and I felt encouraged. I would recommend this for any mother planning to nurse!!

Harlequin, 2003

Two great reads in one book....
WINTER'S EDGE (Anne Stuart) Molly Winters didn't even know her own name. All she knew was that she awoke in a hospital with no memory of her name, her face, or the husband the nurse said came to the hospital when she was unconcious. When she was taken home to Winter's Edge, a house she seemed to love, it was fraught with tension. Her husband seemed to hate her and was looking foward to having ...

Danielle Steel

Delacorte Press, 2000

Fast paced, touching...
Danielle Steele is a writer who wields the written word like an artist... using story lines that attract you by their sheer difference from what people experience in their own "tame" lives. Widowhood, single parenting, trauma, and grudging admiration make this story compelling...a tear jerker.... I would recommend it to anyone who appreciates the talent of a successful story teller.

DK Publishing

DK Preschool, 1995

I despise this book but both babies LOVED it...go figure!!
Oddly, this simple book with disjointed text that flows poorly, was our 1st daughter's favorite book for a long time. And, history appears to be repeating itself...our 13 month old now grabs this book off the shelf and bounces up and down until we read it. It is laminated, the cover is a little puffy, and easy to handle. The photos are colorful and there obviously is something captivating about ...
