Sugar Plum Ballerinas #1: Plum Fantastic (Sugar Plum Ballerinas)4 reviews
Whoopi Goldberg, Deborah Underwood

Hyperion Book CH, 2008

Great to read aloud...
We got this book as a gift and I have been reading it aloud to my 10 year old boy and 6 year old girl. They love it and can't wait for the next installment to come out next spring! A wonderful, innovative story that is very "real" with a main character that tinged with just the right amount of scarcasm. Tempo is good and the imagery is descriptive enough for those getting used to hearing chapter ...

Charles M. Schulz

Fantagraphics Books, 2006

High quality, gift for my son
These heirloom quality, hardbound books are well received by my middle school aged son. Peanuts has a timeless feel, and the complete run in these books are a great tribute to this comic. I am buying all of the books in sequence for my son, and I think they will be enjoyed forever.
  
  











  



  
Whoopi's Big Book of Manners18 reviews
Whoopi Goldberg, 2006

Super Book
Whoopi got it right. I think young children today are NOT getting taught manners and many adults are losing the manners they were taught. Great book then to read to your children for their education and for adults a refresher.
  
  











  



  
Having Our Say: The Delany Sisters' First 100 Years96 reviews
Sarah Delany, A. Elizabeth Delany, ...

Audio Renaissance, 1994

The delightful Delany sisters
This book was recommended to me by my 95-year-old mother, and I must say it was an excellent recommendation. Author Amy Hill Hearth must have had numerous conversations with Sadie (age 102) and her "little sister" Bessie (100). The book is written with the words and the spirit of these two special ladies shining through each page. The Delany sisters were born to a father who was a former ...

The Secret to Happiness
What is happiness? On April 25, 1960, Charles Schulz, through his character Lucy told us: Happiness is a warm puppy. This immortal sentence is just one of the things that appears in the fifth volume of The Complete Peanuts, which comprises the years 1959 and 1960. As in previous volumes, we see once again why Peanuts is considered by many to be the best comic strip ever. In some sense, ...
  
  











  



  
Nightmares and Dreamscapes, Vol. 192 reviews
Stephen King

Highbridge Audio, 1993

Fun Collection of King's Short Stories, Read Introductory Essay
I would recommend this book just for the introductory essay (see below). [Note: I made some Mormon angry because of my negative reviews of books out to prove the Book of Mormon, and that person has been slamming my reviews almost as fast as they are posted.] So your "helpful" vote is greatly appreciated. Thanks King is a master writer, and I enjoyed this collection. I loved "Umney's ...
