North Woods Journal: A Minnesota Nature Calendar2 reviews

Stone Ridge Press, 2004

great book for nature loverse
This is a beautiful and informative book. The photos are gorgeous, and the phenology info is good, but my favorite part is the section at the book with sunrise, sunset and full moon dates.
  
  











  



  
Hello Ocean10 reviews
Pam Munoz Ryan

Charlesbridge Publishing, 2001

HOW THE SEA SHOULD BE SEEN!
This is a delightful book in so many ways. The sea, or ocean, as seen through the eyes, ears, nose, taste and feel of a little girl, a child, and which is probably the best pay to view anything in nature, i.e. through a child's preception. Children see so much more than most adults. This is part of the wonder of this book, as it takes you back to the time when you were this little girls age. ...
  
  











  



  
The Greenwood Tarot: Pre-Celtic Shamanism of the Mythic Forest8 reviews
Mark Ryan, Chesca Potter

Thorsons Publishers, 1996

Like early European cave art, sublime and deep.
I have a copy of this little treasure that I found used at an estate sale for $10. I thought something may be wrong with it. It miraculously was intact! What a jewel in my Tarot collection. I am very familiar with the deck as it is only referred to in legend. It seems the edition stayed in print for a very limited time. I had little interest at the time. Now, after much critical praise and ...
  
  











  



  
Avengers: Galactic Storm, Vol. 11 review
Bob Harras, Tom DeFalco, ...

Marvel Comics, 2006

One last hurrah for the House of Ideas
Once upon a time there was a comic universe, large and diverse, filled with just about any type of character from any type of pulp genre, and they shared and interacted in the same universe. You had a Martial Arts character named Shang Chi living in the same world as the cosmic space fantasy Silver Surfer who fought against the supernatural thriller Dracula who appeared in the socially conscious ...
  
  











  



  
D.P. 7 Classic Volume 1 TPB2 reviews
Mark Gruenwald, Paul Ryan

Marvel Comics, 2007

The New Universe wasn't so bad
The original mid-`80s release of Marvel's New Universe didn't impress me much, but as I was in my teens at the time, that's not surprising. After reading the recent reprint volumes of Star Brand and D.P. 7, it's obvious that I missed out on something that was truly ahead of its time. This was editor-in-chief Jim Shooter's first stab at a more realistic comic universe, something he would fully ...

Everyday Math for Everyday Life: A Handbook for When It Just Doesn't Add Up4 reviews
Mark Ryan

Warner Books, 2002

Rusty Math Book
Everyday Math for Everyday Life could serve as a perfect stand-in for a math tutor! Mark Ryan's mathematic expertise coupled with a desire to help others is evident as he offers refreshing instruction to those of us with rusty math skill. Subtle humor splashed the pages while I learned to tackle seemingly complex situations involving math in my daily life. Never again will I fear helping children ...
  
  











  



  
Darfur Darfur2 reviews

DK Melcher Media, 2008

The Beauty of Darfur Revealed.
Beautiful. These photographs are absolutely breathtaking. Not only do these 8 photojournalists capture the tragic atrocities that are occuring in the region of Darfur, Sudan -- they capture the soul of the people that are being ravaged. I appauld the courage of these people and others who travel to this region of the world and other places of genocide and mass atrocities and begin to open the ...
  
  











  



  
Horror Classics: Graphic Classics, Volume Ten (Graphic Classics (Eureka))3 reviews
Edgar Allan Poe, H. P. Lovecraft, ...

Eureka Productions, 2004

Mummies, Murder and Monkey's Paws
Horror has done well for the modern incarnation of the Graphic Classics, whose series has seen such luminaries as Bram Stoker, Edgar Allan Poe and HP Lovecraft brought to life by some extremely talented cartoonists. Whether it is the short-story nature, or the ready-made visually splendid imagery, there is something in the classic horror tales thats makes them well suited to the Graphic ...

Houghton Mifflin College Div, 1998

A very comprehensive overview of the teaching profession.

Calculus for Dummies by mark ryan. having fun learning calculus
I am sure that you will be able to tell from reading this that I do not write book reviews for a living. Nevertheless, I am going to give this one a try. My reason for buying Calculus for Dummies is that I went through high school and college without ever taking a calculus course. In graduate school, I decided that I needed to understand this thing called Calculus. I found myself in a ...

Dark Horse, 2007

A nice homage and a great addition to the Goon collection
While this tome is mostly filled with several short stories created by fan's of the Goon, with some notable celebrities such as Patton Oswalt, Brian Posehn, and Thomas Lennon, giving us some pretty diverse fare, Eric Powell also lends a hand with a three part Little Unholy B@$t@rds tale. We get the pleasure of being introduced to Dwight T. Albatross, the TRUE creator of the Goon who lets Eric ...
  
  











  



  
Greenwood Tarot Deck & Book Set1 review

U.S. Games Systems, 1999

Fantastic
This is the only deck I have ever been able to "read" without having to read the book first. Chesca Potter's illustrations are inspiring and are full of hidden depths. The deck uses what might be termed pre-Celtic {?} British religious symbols, such as images of animals, landmarks and gods and goddesses, including the Green Man . The four suits are Wands, Arrows, Cups and Stones, each ...

Go MAD: Make a Difference1 review
C. Kevin Wanzer, Eric Chester, ...

Chess Press, 2003

Go MAD: Make a Difference
My daughter LOVED this book. Sometimes I would hear her laughing from the other room as she read it. She would even bring up some of the issues she read about during dinner. She said that even though it was written by adults, it was presented in "her language" (funny, I thought she spoke English like the rest of us). She really liked the chapters by Mark Bernstein and Keith Hawkins in ...

Writing Effective Lesson Plans: The 5-Star Approach1 review
Peter Serdyukov, Mark Ryan

Allyn & Bacon, 2007

a very useful and practical book
I used this book in my Methodology for Second Language Learning class at National University. It is a great book for planning effective lessons not only for the beginning, but for the seasoned teachers as well. I found a lot of useful practical advice and samples there, but I could also get some theoretical background for my planning decisions which I was curious about. This book helps to teach ...
