Western Pub. Co, 1985

FABULOUS!
This book is so fabulous! When my first brother was little I used to read it to him all the time. And, it was the first book that he learned to read. He took it everywhere with him, and now there is only one page, and the cover left. I found one copy used for him for Christmas, and now want five more, one for each of my other 3 brothers, one for my mom, and one for me. The poetry describing all ...

What do you need to ignore today? (description from M.J. Ryan ...

Mark Matteson

Executive Books, 2005

Inspiring Lessons for Leading a Great Life
Mark has really compiled a great collection of some of life's greatest lessons. These are "street" learned lessons, not those taught in high schools and colleges. Once you have been out in the world for many years you will understand how truly important these lessons are to learn, retain and apply to everyday life. I am going to re-read the book, use it as a motivator and as a reference book. ...

Martin Harrison

Vendome Press, 1996

Simply stunning
Lisa Fonssagrives-Penn was a beautiful woman and the world's first top model. This book is a collection of her most beautiful photos taken by some of the world's best photographers, including Lisa's husband, Irving Penn. There is some nice biographical information in the book, but it focuses primarily on the photographs, which are breathtaking. It's hard to find a nice copy of this book these ...

Goldencraft, 1985

Favorite bedtime story
When Logan, my 22 month old grandson, stays the night, he says "book" and points to the bookshelf that holds this treasure. I love the rythm of the story, and the soft detail of the pictures. When my son was little I read this story to him. The pictures remind me of what he looked like as a little boy.The book is a favorite of mine and I am looking for a copy to give to my son for Fathers Day. I ...

International Children's Bible Dictionary

Lynn Waller

Worthy Pub, 1987

Much Better than the NEW One, of course!
This was a great Bible Dictionary for Children, with lots of illustrations, and more importantly, great written information written in an easy to assimilate style. The kids in my class really love this dictionary, and it is a great tool to teach kids how to use reference material, both for Bible Study, and for all areas of their life where this skill comes in handy. It is a great way to ...

The Animals' Song

David L. Harrison

Boyds Mills Press, 2003

Great interactive fun for reading
This rollicking, rhyming picture book features familiar animals joining a jolly parade one by one. The exuberant watercolors by Demarest lend a sense of forward motion, and makes the reader feel like a part of the parade. This noisy preschool book is great interactive fun for reading; to a group or one-on-one. Kids don't have to be asked twice to help out with the rambunctious animal noises. ...

Bedford/St. Martin's, 2003

TERRIFIC!
I also own the older Norton anthologies and thought I would update my library. The Bedford Anthology of World Literature is just terrific! I am so very glad I decided to purchase them! Not just a book of stories and poems but all kinds of background material, maps and time lines too. Well worth your time and money.

Smalltalk-80: The Language and its Implementation

Adele Goldberg, David Robson

Longman Higher Education, 1983

If there was ever a book that needed to be brought back into print...
If someone out there from Addison-Wesley is listening, hopefully they'll hear this plea to bring "Smalltalk-80: The Language and its Implementation" back into print. There is simply no better resource to completely cover this beautiful, unique system. Smalltalk is an extremely important language for both OOP and otherwise; there are volumes of concepts here that are remarkably relevant to this ...

Sandy Asher, David Harrison

Dutton Juvenile, 2006

A new book for boys
Dude! Stories and Stuff for Boys is a great anthology for young readers. The stories are varied and modern, and they provide a wonderful experience for boys to engage in reading---something that is not encouraged enough in our society. I love the stories, and I love how the authors have related to the target audience through their biographies at the end of the book. A thoroughly ...

David Lee, Harrison

Random Library, 1978

away and back again
I must have read this to my children 990 times. The story never ceases to be new and interesting. The art work is superb, with detail to be relished. Little turtle finds a road crew changing his turf. He then needs to go to plan B. Plan B doesn't serve him too well. But provedence brings him to a satisfying place. This book brings deep themes of sameness and change. It also is a neat ...

Pneumatikos Publishing, 2007

Pastor
I would recommend this to those that are hard core intercessors needing more guidance and more revelation to interpret your experiences in prayer. I have found this book extremely helpful. My better sense tells me that this is not a book for everyone, but rather for the experienced intercessor that needs a guide to the next level. I also suggest his other books, Ministering with Angels, and ...

David L. Harrison

Western Publishing Company, 1973

One of our favorites
"Big tricks, little trucks, loud ones, quiet ones. All kinds of trucks for all kinds of jobs." This fun little book is just right for beginning readers. It has large, brightly-colored pictures that fill the pages, and short, jaunty text that is sure to keep the little one fascinated. Yeah, it's nice to have a 4-year-old again. Out came the old books again, and now we sit in bed at night with ...

Oceans: The Vast Mysterious Deep (Earthworks)

David L. Harrison

Boyds Mills Press, 2003

Not just the facts
Kids in upper grades would do well to use this as a model for their reports. Spare facts are linked together by wonderful rtwork that convinces the reader that THIS IS IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO KNOW. While there is no real schema to the text, it ends with a feeling of love for the ocean, gratitude for its gifts. Read this to your older students before you turn them loose to write science reports and ...
