Child's Guide to First Holy Communiion
I was raised Catholic and wanted to get Mary a book that would have her understand the importance of Holy Communion! I felt the book was creative, simple and got the point across about God's Love. I even enjoyed it. It brought memories of my own Holy Communion!! Does she write any other books? My Son Michael is being confirmed next year and would love a book that would explain Confirmation ...

The Practical Therapist Series
While Dr. Ellis has already published many popular books on Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), this book from "The Practical Therapist Series" is targeted to doctors qualified to practice psychotherapy, who have no time to read lengthy popular books. While the audience of this hardcover is health care professionals, I, not being a medic myself, found this work pleasant to read and easy to ...

Fabulous Historical Novel!
I have read many Plaidy novels, but this delves deeper than the others and represents, in my opinion, absolutely the best of Plaidy, and probably the best on the period. What I don't like about modern historicals is the way they play with history. Plaidy sticks to the facts as they are known and provides insights and details that make the story come alive. The characters are real people, and the ...

Helped me greatly last year.
Around this time last year I was going through a very difficult time in many areas of my life. I won't go into extreme detail, but some of these included the consistent physical and emotional abuse from my dad, a really nasty break-up from a relationship that had lasted years, and the worst relapse into anorexia that I have ever had. Needless to say, I had pretty much no self-esteem and ...

Life in the times of Henry VIII
This book can be considered a sequel to Gregory's book The Other Boleyn Girl. This book though tells a slightly different story. This book centers on three women who have to deal with the aftermath of Anne Boleyn and Jane Seymour. Jane Boleyn was the wife of George Boleyn and the sister in law of Anne Boleyn. Her testimony helped convict both of them leading to their deaths. When Henry VIII ...
Hope Leslie: or, Early Times in the Massachusetts (Penguin Classics)

Penguin Classics

A Gem Decoded
Hope Leslie starts out with conflict, with love, with deception, and willing exile to a new land. The story is neatly woven, with plenty of action, romance, and adventure. It is written in a bit difficult of a style, but this book is much worth the decoding. Sedgwick delicately places passeges of savory descriptions of the beauty of the wildlands of New England, and glorifies aspects of both ...

Jean Plaidy's greatest trilogy
This book is actually three books published as one volume for what may be the first time. This is the story of the Spanish princess Katherine of Aragon and it's beautiful, tragic and stirring. Katherine was the daughter of Queen Isabella of Spain. Isabella was a bold, powerful and capable ruler and there was no reason in Katherine's experience why she or a daughter of hers couldn't be the same ...

On Ancient Gossip
When you need a break from memorizing the dates of the Punic Wars, are bored speculating over what kind of salt the Romans used to sow Carthaginian fields, have given up on finding Philippi on any modern map, and can't quite recall the names of the dramatis personae during the year of the three emperors, this book will re-stimulate your interest in history by gratifying the natural human desire ...

A beautiful book with a gripping narrative!
I love reading books in diary form and the "Dear America" series of books for younger readers are not only beautifully bound, but each individual story is truly engaging, transporting readers into a bygone era with its entailing adventures. The heroines are typically young girls who find themselves in extraordinary circumstances - and having to display immense courage in trying times. ...

My daughter, who is currently attending second grade in catholic school, was studying to make her confession. The Child's Guide to Reconciliation reinforced what she had learned in school and helped her to have a greater understanding of the importance of the ...

Don't believe everything you think
Five Good Minutes: 100 Morning Practices To Help You Stay Calm & Focused All Day Long The fun (and humorous and playful and practical) exercises in this book make me think of the bumper sticker that reads, "Don't believe everything you think!" This book was especially helpful in reminding me that there's no need to get caught up in my thoughts or to think that they define who I am. "I'm fat, ...
