Swing, batta batta, swing
The girl-playing-sports picture book exists, no question. Scanning the shelves of your local library you'll find one or two of that specific genre. But how many picture books are historical looks at girls playing sports? Few. And how many cite specific historical characters, like the legendary African-American baseball player Josh Gibson? Fewer. Definitely fewer. Finally, how many are ...

Essential read for designing J2EE applications
A must read for seasoned professionals and those new to the subject. Invaluable insights and guidelines are detailed at every tier of architecting a J2EE enterprise application. I found myself frequently relating to the examples and wishing I had read this book to help with earlier projects. This would have saved hours of re-factoring because the authors have already detailed solutions to ...

Townsend Press, 1996

A great motivator
The real life stories in this book all deal with the adversities of everyday life, growing up, going to school, being a parent etc. It also shows how everyday people have jumped the high burdles in life that cripple many of us. For that reason these people are heroes. They are not celebrities or anyone you will read about in magazines or newspapers. They are just "normal people." But they've ...

Yukon Wild: The Adventures of Four Women Who Paddled 2,000 Miles Through America's Last Frontier

Beth Johnson

Berkshire House Pub, 1984

Realistic and Laid Back
What does it take to paddle 2,000 miles in unfamiliar territory? I found out by reading this book. It takes a lot of planning and dedication, but one of the most obvious requirements is a good sense of humor. This is obviously vital when you must share a tent with someone for over 70 days. Too many wildnerness books seem to stretch the truth - overestimating the size of the waves and the nature ...

The authors use frequent case studies and examples that are carried on throughout each chapter, which help to illustrate the important points and to hold the reader's attention.

I homeschool my children and we're going to be teaching High School English this coming year. I did extensive research on English Curriculums that covered the basics of Grammar.
