Wild Places (Explainers) 1 review
Angela Wilkes
Educational Development Corporation, 1994
Beautiful illustrations, excellent book!
My children are very excited about this book. It is full of wonderful illustrations and information about different climates/regions (desert, jungle, mountains, etc...). In each region it also explores various related topics such as walking through the jungle, volcanoes, avalanches, conquering Everest, the death of rainforests (these are headings in the book). I would highly recommend this. ...

My First Word Book (Revised Edition) 51 reviews

DK Preschool, 1999
A Favorite in our Home Library
I have three children, and we have been through three copies of this fabulous book. Starting at about age one, my children would pull this book off the shelf day after day, pouring over the pictures. They loved the covers right off of each copy. We used it as a sort of rudimentary "I Spy" book -- "I spy an animal with horns," or "I spy something blue." It taught my children scores of early ...

Italian for Beginners (Passport's Language Guides)2 reviews

Passport Books, 1987
LOVE THIS LANGUAGE BOOK
This book is really great. I am very happy with it, especially as I know what to expect, considering the fact that I already have the exact same book in French, German and Spanish. It's fairly "easy" for me to pick up the language, as I just need to remember the format from the other books, which I am already used to. A useful and very fun way to learn another language. I highly recommend ...

The Big Book of Dinosaurs31 reviews

Dorling Kindersley Publishers Ltd, 1994
Great book for my dinosaur fanatic!
My 6 year old just got this book and he loves it. He sat on Dad's lap looking at each picture and finding out all the little facts. It is larger than most of his books but space will be made on the book shelf by lying it flat. It will also make a nice display book.

Latin for Beginners (Usborne Language Guides) 1 review
Angela Wilkes, J Shackell
Usborne Publishing Ltd, 1993
very useful companion text
Many Latin teachers are recognizing the benefits of approaching Latin as a means of communication in the classroom, thus tapping into students' natural language learning faculties, making the learning process more enjoyable and productive. Many Latin teachers are also frustrated with the lack of resources by means of which they could provide their students with vocabulary for expressing ...

Deserts (Explainers Series)1 review
Angela Wilkes
E.D.C. Publishing, 1980
"Can you find any more fun stuff like this?"
Last night, as I was digging through the books and resources my children and I studied during our Great Egypt Semester, my 12 year old looked at our copy of Angela Wilkes' Deserts and said, "Dad, can you find any more fun stuff like that for our history?" What a great little book, easily read by our then-first grader, enough full of fun facts to hold the attention-and seize the memory-of my older ...

This book gave my daughter confidence in the kitchen
My daughter found this book at the library of her school. She brought it home and tried several recipes that the whole family ate...and liked! She checked it out so many times that we decided to buy our own copy. It uses common ingredients and clear instructions with pictures that insure success. This is a great first cookbook for children.

Irish for Beginners Usborne Language Guide (Usborne Language for Beginners) (Irish Edition) 3 reviews
Angela Wilkes, John Shackell
Edc Publishing, 1989
Interesting and Easy to Follow
I got a copy in Ireland with a CD instead of the tapes. I've tried other Irish language books, but this one worked best for me. Very straightforward, and focused on getting you speaking Irish as quickly as possible. If you want to try your hand at Irish, this is a really good first choice. Slán leat!
