Help for those trapped in perfectionism.
I've always had an overactive conscience, and I like to be in control. So perfectionism comes naturally to me. Any failure, real or perceived, brings on anxiety and recrimination. However, I've grown tired of trying to live up to my own impossible ideals and the inflated expectations of others. This year, a number of trials showed me the futility of perfectionism. I'll never be able to truly ...

Blackstone Audiobooks, 2006

Nothing new about Easy Company
I have read "Band of Brothers" by Ambrose, "Biggest Brother" by Alexander, and "Beyond Band of Brothers". Beyond Band of Brothers is just a repeat of the exact pages, word for word, as the other two books. The book looks as if it was mainly copy/pasted from the other two for the most part. It is a good book, but if you are looking for more answers to your questions you may have, they are not ...

This is the third time we are checking this delightful book out of the library, so it's definitely time to buy it. My just turning three year old loves this book and has us read it to him every night. The pictures are great, and he has this story down to memory also, as someone else mentioned in their review. I would recommend this book to anyone with a 2-5 year old in mind..
