Fun story, many more hours of fun just exploring the art!
This is a new twist on the types of stories that kids love to read and hear over and over. It begins with a lady making a simple request...she just wants her apple. The chain of events that results though, teaches cause and effect in a fun way. What really makes the book a lasting treasure is the art work. We found ourselves going through the book both from front to back and back to front ...

Elizabeth in her own words
Queen Elizabeth I of England has had hundreds of books written *about* her, but very few of them allow us to hear what she has to say in her own words. I found this an accessible, well-edited collection, not of *all* her words, but of a very good sample. It includes all of the speeches, prayers and poems she wrote that are available from reliable contemporary sources (as with all famous ...

The Clever Boy and the Terrible, Dangerous Animal
The children in our preschool love books with big bold images, lots of strong colors, and a big surprise in the middle. This one is a perfect example. The children especially seem to delight in the idea of a little boy taking what the big people see as brave action in the face of their silly fear that only the little boy can see through. I highly recommend this one.

Fascinating Read!
What a fascinating book! I would highly recommend this read. O'Reilley's way with words is mesmerizing. Her book makes you stop and think about your own history, your own family with all its quirks. Her sense of humor and deep reflection on her life make this book a true pleasure to read.

From the voices of caregivers................
Over the four years during which my brother and sister and I arranged for, and provided, care for our mother, I experienced the soul numbing range of horrors that Alzheimer's disease visits on both its victims and their caregivers. * The disbelief that my mother could possibly forget that she had asked me the same question three times in 10 minutes, followed by the self-hatred at my anger and ...

Good for lost souls
This is a good book for people experiencing milestones in their lives. The stories about the children may help one realize that there are others living in inner cities suffering worse than you. This is an excellent book to give to someone looking for God.

Manifest Your Dreams...Here's how
I love this book! I started reading it and I couldn't put it down. Now I can't stop talking about Career Quest and I've already told four friends to order this book right now. This book really hits a chord that is relevant for our time. I wonder how much untapped creativity is lost because too many workers are dying inch by inch at dead end jobs that they hate. It takes courage and a plan to ...

Touching My Soul
In 1997 I was diagnosed with breast cancer and I was frightenedto death! I didn't know where to turn. Sharing with my childrenbrought tears for them and an inability to talk about it. We were all dealing with the possibility of death and I felt like I had no where to go with my fear. The doctor told me I was lucky because I had ductul carcinoma in situ, which means the cancer was ...

A wonderful reflection on life; Secrets to contemplate!
This is an absolute gem! A very quick read yet will not leave you when you put it down. O'Reilley's views on contemplative teaching have not come easy. She has questioned her practices as we all do, but somehow she has excepted herself and others shortcomings and has proceeded in giving us not necessarily a guidebook, but a "give it a try" book that should help us all through this journey ...

As librarian for a Patients' Library in a hospital, I watch for books that may help patients and their family and/or friends cope with debilitating illnesses. I was impressed by the thoughtful variety of activities proposed in this book--especially by the emphasis on maintaining dignity and independence for the patient. The projects described are creative and practical, the approach is ...

Entre los espacios, a world of dreams a world of realities
This magnifecent collection of short stories is an entry to the passages of an oneiric world bound to the hardships of reality. The author through a poetic language creates an aura of fantasy which enables the reader to foresee the souls of its characters. Social commentary is expressed not through a direct invasive dialogue, but rather by evocative introspections of prose directly linked to ...
