Take a look
This is such a cute book. Bright and colorful pictures to look at, with a story that isn't too repetitive. Readers will not mind reading time and again to children

Gulliver's Travels (Penguin Classics)93 reviews
Jonathan Swift

Penguin Audiobooks, 1997

Great book, great price
I am quickly becoming a fan of the Dover Thrift editions of classic literature. They are well-made, sturdy, and a great bargain. All of them that I have bought and assigned to my students have been $2.50. What can you buy for $2.50 anymore? Now you can have an entire library of unabridged classics at a more than reasonable rate. Jonathan Swift's "Gullivers Travels" is no exception to the rule. ...
  
  











  



  
At the Villa of Reduced Circumstances (Von Igelfeld 3)25 reviews
Alexander McCall Smith

Time Warner AudioBooks, 2004

A funny, character driven comic novel
If you love McCall-Smith's characters, you will love this newest adventure of the befuddled German professor he introduced in Portuguese Irregular Verbs. McCall obviously loves this ridiculous man, and so do I.

Emmuska Orczy, Baroness Orczy

Trafalgar Square Publishing, 1998

One Of The Best Love Stories Ever Written!
When I first began reading this book,I wasn't quite certain I was going to enjoy it, as the English prose wasn't quite my type. However, after the first few chapters, I became an ardent fan of this spellbinding novel! What an incredible love story it is...and it's not one of those books that you read once, and then put back on the shelf, never to be taken down again, either. It is one which you ...
  
  











  



  
Portuguese Irregular Verbs (Von Igelfeld 1)49 reviews
Alexander McCall Smith

Time Warner AudioBooks, 2004

The funniest thing I've ever read.
This is the funniest book I've ever read. I don't think you have to be thick into acadamia to get most of the humor...maybe you have to be a little bit socially inept yourself, though. It would be easy for things to fly over the head of someone, who say, was always popular, or throws fabulous dinner parties, or doesn't think twice about daily social interaction. Yes, I can see how if you'd ...

Charles Dickens

Penguin Audio, 1995

Dourly illustrated, it accurately represents the situation in London in the mid ninteenth century
"Great Expectations" is one of the few works by Charles Dickens that I had neither read nor had any contact with. Other than knowing title and author, I had no knowledge of the work before reading this book. After reading it, I can say that the effect was what one would hope the Classics Illustrated works would have on people. The contact generated a desire in me to read the original work. The ...
  
  











  



  
The Gun Seller104 reviews
Hugh Laurie

Washington Square Press, 1998

The Gun Seller
Snappy writing, plot twists that keep you wondering who's the good guy and who's the bad, and a character that I think every guy wants to be. And I'm not a guy. I don't read spy novels in general, but I picked this one up because I'm a fan of Hugh Laurie. Read the first page in B&N. Then the second. Until I read the first chapter. It made it on my Christmas list because I giggled. Out loud. ...

Three Men in a Boat3 reviews
Jerome K. Jerome

CSA WORD, 2003

You'll never believe this is HOUSE!
For those of you who only know Hugh Laurie as Greg House M.D. - you're in for a surprise. You'd never guess that gravely voiced doctor could be the same posh Brit you'll hear on this recording. His first-person narration of JKJ's Three Men in a Boat is without doubt one of the funniest things I've ever heard! The book itself is hysterical, but when Hugh Laurie gets his teeth into it, it ...

Inconceivable27 reviews
Ben Elton

HarperCollins Audio, 1999

HYSTEROSALPINGOGRAMS AND ALL THAT
Ben Elton's style has been got under a bit of control since the heady early days of Stark. He still takes the occasional potshot at incidental targets, but he no longer fires a scattergun in every direction as he did then. As often, he picks a topic that might seem to call for the utmost delicacy and tact and treats it with the utmost frankness and even ribaldry. The topic in question is human ...
