a book that makes your children wanna READ !!!
Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You? is going to be a lot of fun for your child to read--or to use as a tool for them as they learn to read. This is a great book for children learning to read independently; the illustrations are grand and the words are relatively simple. The book also teaches, in a fun way, some important words for child to increase their vocabulary at the same time. Great! The book ...

Simon & Schuster, 2008

I won't forget this book!
We all have days we wish we could forget. If we think back, I'm sure we also have memories that have escaped us from long ago which we wish we could remember. Jill Price is a unique person, the first, who can honestly say she can't forget a single day, and has little or no problem with those memories the rest of us cling to. Jill has a memory condition called "hyperthymestic syndrome" ...

Louise Hay

Hay House, 1999

The LOVING YOURSELF book
I must say, Louise Hay is a genius. She isn't saying you intentionally make yourself sick, it is how you feel and dealing with your life that makes you sick. I was going through a rough time in my life and reading this book and the affirmations- it really helped. There's nothing wrong with feel good about your life and yourself- the only side effect is that you don't worry- you feel good!

"I Can Make You Thin" Review
For almost 2 years now I have been handing this book and 'mind-reprogramming' CD to every patient who comes to me to lose weight, or who is caught up in the mentality of diets, scales, cravings, or overeating. At the risk of making this book seem overly simple, here are Paul McKenna's 4 golden rules... 1. When you are hungry, eat. 2. Eat what you want (not what you think you "should".) 3. ...

Ian Davis

Three Rivers Press, 1999

You rock Ian !! (my husband's words)
Ian Davis is fantastic! This is the most hilarious pregnancy guide for men (and believe me- my husband has a few of them)- I bought it for him because I thought 'we're on our third-don't want him to adopt the been there, done that attitude' especially as he's one of those very involved men and takes it all so seriously. What a fresh take!! He loves it- we've even purchased them for friends who ...

Cure for Every English Teachers' Achilles Heel -- Teaching Reading
We secondary (Grades 7-12) English teachers have a weakness and it's called reading. Oh, we're GREAT readers and love literature and know how to teach it (to avid and average readers). But throw a kid at us who struggles with reading (and we get them every year) and they're likely to fall through the cracks, because our solutions are rather simplistic. We say things like, "Read it again," or ...

Can't Remember What I Forgot: The Good News from the Front Lines of Memory Research

Sue Halpern

Harmony, 2008

Superb book--just not about Alzheimers
This is a really wonderful book--it's just that it's about normal memory loss, not catastrophic types like Alzheimers. I.e., about the thing that's affecting all of us as we age, and keeping us from remembering where the hell the car keys are. The author, who has a piece about PTSD in last week's New Yorker, has been in all the cutting-edge labs, and indeed has let them scan her brain with all ...

Highly Informative
Medical Myths that Can Kill You: And the 101 Truths that Will Save, Extend, and Improve Your Life, by Dr. Nancy Snyderman, is a highly informative and helpful book. And many of the myths she uncovers as false made me quite happy! The book is divided into seven chapters that are the myths: * Annual checkups are obsolete * Vaccinations are just for kids * Doctors don't play favorites * ...

James D. Hornfischer

Bantam, 2005

Truly common boys, truly uncommon heroes
What an amazing, moving and inspiring book. It reads almost as a work of fiction, it moves so fluidly and thoroughly from character to character, ship to ship, and side to side. But every bit of it is true. It is hard to imagine that the white haired, slow-moving gentlemen we see at the malls or at church are some of the same who lived through the flames, the shrapnel, the bullets, the fear, ...

What Can I Bring?Cookbook
This is a book I wish I'd had when my kids were young. So many times I could have used this. But now my husband belongs to clubs which from time to time we have a potluck and this is very, very, helpful. Since we live in an age of color and pictures, I wish they had included pictures of the finished product and that way you'd know if yours was too soupy or too dry or whatever. Very helpful ...

Ray Gibson

Usborne Books, 2007

this is GREAT for children!
I love to brag about my daughter's talents but have to admit drawing is not one of them! My five year old daughter would not complete some work in school that had to do with drawing. One time she even broke down crying in school when asked to draw a book so I knew I needed something to help her. This book is great! Very basic. Makes it so easy to learn! I showed my daughter the book and said ...

Gary R. Howard

Teachers College Press, 2006

Reflections on We Can't Teach What We Don't Know: White Teachers, Multiracial Schools
I found this book settling in the midst of my own efforts to sort out and address issues of White priviledge and dominance. Gray Howard shares his journey through the difficult world and work of multicultural understanding with humor and sensitivity. He identifies the unspoken truths about priviledge and dominance in western culture, in such a way that relieves the burden of guilt, allows for ...

Dr. Seuss

Random House Books for Young Readers, 1975

fine children's book with lots to be learned
Oh, the Thinks You Can Think! Is a charming book by the immortal Dr. Seuss who wrote many fine children's books in his time. Oh, the Thinks You Can Think! is no exception. This book encourages children to imagine and eventually explore the world without fear. The book has excellent illustrations that amuse children--and adults; and the rhyming text always impresses me. The book starts by ...

Munro Leaf Where Are You When We Need You?
Oh joy! I have searched for this book and here it is again, back in print. I broke the record for checking it out of the Mission Hills, San Diego library as a child. It worked. 50 years after reading it, I'm one of the politest people I know!

Ray Gibson, Fiona Watt

Usborne Books, 2000

easy instructions with great results
From the day my 5year old daughter got hold of this book and "I can draw animals" she is stuck with these. She completed 4 drawings at one sitting and always wants to do more. The best part is the simple visual instruction that shows the way without any adult supervision. Great book!

Not a man, but I LOVE this cookbook for our family
So I bought these cookbooks for my husband on his days to cook (yeah right) and I'm really impressed with them. There are some GREAT recipes in this book series that aren't too bad health wise. I've actually used some of the recipes and they came out really tasty. Hubby even was able to make one and follow the easy recipe no problem. Highly recommended!
