José Aranda now reexamines American literary history from the perspective of Chicano/a studies to show that Mexican Americans have had a key role in the literary output of the United States for one hundred fifty years.

Great Fun,Ecellent Teaching Tool!
Children love this story which is a fun way to introduce the concepts of math (counting by fives), the arctic habitat, geography and natural phenomenon (the northern lights). As a teacher, I've used this book with three to six year olds. It is one of those rare books that lends itself beautifully to building several lessons around. It is easy to expand upon the books' concepts for the older ...

One of Gardner's Classics
If any of you that are into Gardner's tradition, then this book should be on your shelf. Eventhough, you can see that the book is fiction, this is where it all started by promoting "wicca" into the modern age and telling others that it is here to stay. I found it very interesting when he talked about his recarnation and how his dreams where messages sent to him by the touch of the Goddess. ...

PKD's best short story
Philip K. Dick was one of science fiction's short story "master craftsmen", though he was better known for his novels. His short stories are reminicent of Frederic Brown's, but usually Dick's were better paced and fuller. Published almost exclusively in SF magazines, most of his best stories were printed in Del Ray's "The Best of Philip K. Dick" collection. A good handful of these are some of ...

Pretty well translated.
One Piece is my favorite series, due to its creative design, comic insanity, and superb character development. That said, over time, the Viz Media translation of the manga has disappointed me more than once, as Viz sometimes softens dialog with poor choices of insults, threats, and exclamations. However, this particular volume of One Piece is one of the best written released so far. Having read ...
