Compelling and Thought-provoking
The Ebony Tree is a CLASSIC. I loved every drop of it. The author is TRULY and I mean TRULY a master at her craft. This book was wonderfully written, compelling and thought-provoking. I thoroughly enjoyed following on the journey of Jewel's life, the main character. Again, this book is WONDERFUL. Ms. Thompson put so much passion into writing this wonderful book. I cannot wait to read her ...

Full of meaning
No Pockets In A Shroud is a moving tale of war heroes, a mother's love for an unborn child, and a woman wanting love all gone unnoticed. It takes the reader back to times when hiding what some thought were shameful secrets was popular and supposedly practical. Many young adults struggle today because of past secrets. No Pockets In A Shroud brings into vision the negativity of keeping some long ...

Color Me Butterfly
Color Me Butterfly is truly a soul stirring book. There were times when reading this book that I flinched. I believe the author told her story in a remarkable way and that it is a testament to both the strengths and weaknesses of women who find themselves in the midst of domestic abuse. The generations went through such violence and immeasurable pain--- yet still "they rise"!! Although painful, ...

Cuanto me alegra que haya una autora que cuenta parte de la historia dominicana. Me encanta como Julia escribe. Este libro esta muy bien hecho pero ojo: Julia Alvarez escribe en ingles no en español. Aun asi, me parece que la traduccion de esta historia esta estupenda.

The Whole Story
With an ever increasing interest in butterflies I recently purchased an excellent book that had outstanding photos of butterflies.....but not of the caterpillars that produced the butterflies. This was a huge disappointment because very often you find the caterpillar but have no idea what it will grow up to be. Caterpillars of Eastern North America completes "the story". In addition to ...

Butterfly wings
Only three of the poets and authors whose work is represented in this volume survived the Nazi Holocaust. These works, however, are no more dead than the wings of butterflies mounted in a natural history museum. They fly: They give the children voices for all time---not just the authors and poets' voices, but the voices of all 14,900 children who perished in Terezin from the arrival of ...

Hopeful and Inspiring
I'm not good with words, but I'm going to try LOL. This book is so simple, but powerful, a story that will never leave you and one we can all identify with. I find it so hopeful and inspiring, a great read when one "is down". Its not a religious book, but definitely has spiritual themes to it IMO. I read this book in High School and am middle aged now and still adore it, one of my favorites. ...

Who says you can't judge a book by its cover?
As sensuous and erotic as its classy cover, this beautiful and tantalizing novel will knock your socks off and make your toes curl... literally! So grab a glass of wine and some "honey and lime" and get ready to experience what happens WHEN BUTTERFLIES KISS.

Great and informative
We bought this book to accompany the Butterfly Pavilion from amazon.com. This book was a little above her level of understanding, she is only 2 after all. She did get the gist of it. Great illustrations and concise.

How the whole thing started
How the whole thing started is important. That's what I think is so interesting. Sure, the fairies go on an exciting mission, but the whole thing started with a book of poetry being destroyed. That's the larger message of this book. Human beings recognizing that even our smallest actions can have gigantic consequences, like the butterfly effect. I liked the way this story was put together. ...

But Where do Caterpillars Come From?
This is a beautiful and very clever book. Pages are cocooned within larger pages, with individual illustrations blending seamlessly into the background illustrations. Like the natural world itself, this book rewards the patient observer, with rich details on the surface and others folded in more subtly. Your kids will be focused in on a little book within the big book, as the caterpillar goes ...

Excellent
I really do not love reading books. Most especially if it is a novel. Until my professor obliged us to read at least 1 novel and make a Critical Paper after analysis. I am lucky that I had chosen this novel. I had realized several things after reading "The Scream of the Butterfly"-- it's all about reality, about the youth...about life.

Life Cycles of Butterflies
This is a great overview of many butterflies. It can be used to ID caterpillars/butterflies, like my grandson did for a science project, or just to enjoy butterflies in a garden full of plants for butterflies.

Now this is a writer!
The only writer who has made me laugh and cry in the same book. It can be slow at times,but trust me, stick with it! I have recommended it to many others who have told me how they laughed out loud and even cried in cafes, getting a whole lot of other people interested in the book. Now I see why so many people are enjoying and talking about what is but a simple tale of a caterpillar searching for ...

Easy Breezy Fun Yoga Book
Out of three Children Yoga books I bought off of Amazon, this was far the best! it gave me a lot of ideas to work with and was able to build up a lot of lessons to teach the children. Children love the chanting meditaions and acting like the animals in the jungle story.

The Butterfly
I found "The Butterfly" a very interesting book because it not only shows how Jews, but how non-Jews lived in fear in World War II. It tells how the little girl, Monique, is afraid of the "tall black boots" in her small French village. The "tall black boots" refer to the Nazi officers. It is not until Monique's friend, Monsieur Marc, is beaten and taken away by the officers when Monique finds out ...

A student-eye view of solid martial arts instruction.
As a ShoDan-level assistant karate instructor, I'm always looking for good books to help me become a better teacher and practitioner. I've found martial arts-based memoirs to be particularly helpful and encouraging. I recently stumbled across "The Making of A Butterfly," and it was no exception. Phillip Starr began his martial arts journey in the 1950s. His family moved a lot due to ...

Another good Yugioh book....... undubbed is better.........
I really like this book. Well, I'm a big fan of Yugioh, so duh! This is the book in which we first see the Duel Monsters cards and meet the young CEO (though at the time we don't know he is one) Seto Kaiba and the mysterious Shadi. Beware though, Seto, who usually looks all hot and sexy, doesn't look too spectacular. I'm not sure why, but some of the images of him look rather awkward, ...
