Bartholomew and the Oobleck: (Caldecott Honor Book) (Classic Seuss) 21 reviews
Dr. Seuss
Random House Books for Young Readers, 1949
One of the best kids' books, ever.
I bought this book with "The King's Stilts" (see my review). I think this is one of the best kids' books ever, and my kids loved it when they were small. It was a sad day when our record of it got buckled by being left in the sun. Unavailable as a book when my kids were little, this is a delightful story with a typical Dr Seuss moral ending - change is not always for the best and novelty is ...

Construction Contracting: Business and Legal Principles (2nd Edition) 2 reviews
Stuart H. Bartholomew
Prentice Hall, 2001
Construction Contracting: Business and Legal Principles
At first I was disappointed when I realized the book was written primarily as a teaching text for senior students in baccalaureate university programs in construction engineering or construction management. However, the book is so well written and full of case law references that I was immediately provided with excellent material for two in-process construction claims packages.

Brother Bartholomew and the Apple Grove2 reviews
Jan Cheripko
Boyds Mills Press, 2004
Kids ages 6 and older will relish this story
Kids ages 6 and older will relish this story of a monastery which makes applesauce to make ends meet, helped by the careful attendance of Brother Bartholomew to the apple grove. His aging is causing him to be forgetful and to not mend the fence which helps guard the apples, so when the younger Brother Stephen enters the monastery and covets the task, convinced he can do better, the elderly ...

Bartholomew Fair (Revels Student Editions)2 reviews
Ben Jonson
Manchester University Press, 2001
Good Footnotes Can Save the Day, or the Play
Ben Jonson requires effort. His allusions to topical events tend to be obscure today, his penchant for having some characters quote Latin phrases can be a barrier (some characters misquote Latin, and we, the alert audience, are supposed to chuckle), and his use of unfamiliar colloquialisms and bawdy comments is yet another challenge.
Despite these difficulties, Jonson's humor has weathered ...

Encountering the Mystery: Understanding Orthodox Christianity Today 6 reviews
Patriarch Bartholomew
Doubleday, 2008
Pleasantly Surprised
My first two fears was that this was either some narrow esoteric treatise in theology-speak; or it was going to be some sort of simplistic catechism which are legion. It was neither. Patriarch Bartholomew gets down to the spiritual essence of what the Church is about. The title contains the clue: mystery. Very often people want to understand God in concrete terms they can categorize and ...

Ric Martini, Ed Bartholomew
Benjamin-Cummings Publishing Company, 2006
Best educational physiology book!
I am a medicalstudent from Sweden. When I was about to begin
studying anathomy and physiology the trouble was to find a
book that gave the most knowledge in an easy, understandable way. After searching through all the books I found this one,
Essentials of anathomy and physiology, the best buy all over.

American Destiny: God's Role in America5 reviews
Stephen Mansfield, Sam Bartholomew
American Destiny Press, 2001
One of the Best Gift Books I've ever Received or Given.
Not only would I highly recommend this as a great coffee table gift book, but it's also a fantastic resource for `history lessons' and how they relate to contemporary America. It's a great conversation starter as well. Especially interesting to me was some of the quotes and documentation related to the founding of our nation's top Ivy League universities. The publisher's web site is another ...

Drama of Scripture, The: Finding Our Place in the Biblical Story6 reviews
Craig G. Bartholomew, Michael W. Goheen
Baker Academic, 2004
An Exciting Survey of the Big Story
The Drama of Scripture provides a big-picture look at God's relationship to humanity as the creation and dream of God. The authors analogize the Biblical story to a 6 act play consisting of the following acts: Creation, Fall, God Chooses Israel, Coming of the King, Spreading the News (Church), The Return of the King.
The theme running through the book is God's desire and commitment to his ...

The Misadventures of Benjamin Bartholomew Piff: You Wish5 reviews
Jason Lethcoe
Grosset & Dunlap, 2007
He is transported to the Wishworks world and is soon engaged in a battle against Curseworks
Everything is bright and normal in Benjamin Bartholomew Piff's life until that terrible day when his parents are killed in a plane crash. There are no other relatives for him to live with, so he is put into Pinch's Home for Wayward Boys, "a dilapidated orphanage converted from a windowless industrial building that once produced dental tools."
There are several things wrong with this setup for ...

The Death of an Irish Tradition (Peter McGarr Mysteries)2 reviews
Bartholomew Gill
Avon, 2003
Murder at the Horse Show
I read this book under its original title and it was good then and it will be good now. I knew the author and still know his brother, George. All of his books should be the basis for a television series shot on location. Mark was a master of words having been graduated from Brown University and then going to Trinity College Dublin. He knew of whence he wrote.

Bartholomew, Mary Margaret Morre
Hay House, 1998
Reflections of an Elder Brother
In fifteen years or more of reading various books that reflect our true nature I've never read any that give more helpful sugestions that clearly work in one's day to day living. All of the Bartholomew books are simply outstanding.

The Death of an Irish Lass (Peter McGarr Mysteries)2 reviews
Bartholomew Gill
Avon, 2003
An Irish Detective
This was my first Peter McGarr mystery and it won't be my last. Bartholomew Gill created this most Irish detective and imbued both he and his setting with the charm of an Irish Bed and Breakfast.
McGarr is the Chief Inspector of Detectives, a position created to lure him away from Interpol. Before that McGarr had been with Criminal Justice in Paris and is somewhat revered in his home of ...

Ten Red Apples (Bartholomew & George)1 review
Virginia Miller
Walker Books Ltd, 2004
Toddler goes nuts for this book
It's hard to explain just how much my 1.5 year old daughter loves this book. She insists on us reading it 5-6 times a day, jumping up and down with delight at the apples, and the numbers, and the little black kitten.
The illustrations are elegant and simple, easy for a child to understand. The characters are really well developed. I have read some earlier versions of the Bartholomew bear ...

McGarr and the P.M. of Belgrave Square1 review
Bartholomew Gill
Penguin (Non-Classics), 1984
Early McGarr mystery focuses on Nazi art thefts.
In the fifth of his sixteen Peter McGarr mysteries, author Bartholomew Gill is still finding his niche. Though he is using the same police characters from the Garda Siochana in Dublin with which he began the series (in Death of an Irish Politician), he has not yet begun to concentrate on their quirky personalities, their humor, or their often hilarious interactions. In terms of his plots, he ...
