Mop top (Cadmus books) 6 reviews
Don Freeman

Mop Top
I like the story because the little boy in the story had a mop for a head.Thay called him that because his hair looks bad. That sounded like me. I like the story a lot because the boy loved his mother very much to do this for her.

My 5 Year Old's Favorite Book
My 5 year old daughter takes this book out of the school library every week. Every once in a while we have to insist she gets something else because we're tired of reading it over and over. But it is a wonderful story with a very good lesson. I've decided to buy it so the other kids at school can have a chance to read the library copy.

Excellent technical detail
This is a great reference for Oracle replication and does an excellent job of explaining the issues, especially multimaster replication. I have Freemans's Oracle new features book also, and I enjoy the style and cadence of the writing style. The text is not preachy and shows with clear examples all of the ways to set up and use Oracle replication. I highly recommend this book, and the price is ...

Elegant Soft Pastels Highlight Warm, Artistic Mouse Humor!
This book is a visual and literary play on the ever-inspiring animal name of dormouse. These are a kind of rodent that in some ways resemble a squirrel. Every humor writer who has ever seen that name has wanted to have fun with it. The wonderful Don Freeman (of Corduroy fame) takes that artistic license one step further by building a Horatio Alger story around his door mouse and doing his own ...

Live Oak Media, 2004
More adventures with Lisa's very own bear. . .
In this installment of Corduroy's adventures with Lisa, we see that some time has passed since she first brought him home from the department store. She's taller, wearing her hair a little straighter, and her mom looks like she had a makeover, too. Corduroy, however, is wearing the same green overalls he did in the first book and has managed to keep both buttons on this time. Early on in the ...

Although, the story is about events that are happening in a particular Armenian family, in reality it is the life all immigrants in America. The stories some how effects all Americans. I am positive that some where in our lifetime ...

A Glorious Romp Under Tinfoil Stars!
What a lovely book for children. It is about a boy named Jory who one night while watching TV is asked by his favorite puppets to join him inside the television for a party. The beautiful pictures capture the imagination of children who wonder what it might look like! It's a fun and gentle book sure to please.

Lovely classic book of colors
I wish this book would get reprinted so that fans of Corduroy could explore this lesser known work by the author. I loved this book as a child and was able to find an inexpensive library copy for my own children to enjoy. Each color works together to draw a picture of a boy on a desert island who gets rescued by a ship. This is a nice story that teaches colors with an adjunct lesson in ...

The Hotel Book Great Escapes North America
Beautifully photographed to take you away to places that you may not have heard of. I like it because the hotels are not your typical hotels, this book highlights those that have original architectural value, and interior design.
