Newberry: The Life and Times of a Maine Clam

2 reviews
Vincent Gaston Dethier

Down East Books, 1981

From a homeschooling violinist in Maine
I would recommend this book for children and adults. Newberry the clam had a friend, the barnacle. He was pretty nice. On his clam birthday, he didn't have a cake or candles, so he had a big personal feast. It didn't work out so well because he got a big bubble of gas in his stomach and floated out to Blue Hill. I don't want to give away the whole story, but his advdentures were very fun to ...

Story of a Clam: A Fable of Discovery & Enlightenment

Templeton Foundation Press, 2001

Avoid this book like the plague!
I'm a big fan of what the Templeton Foundation does (bridging the gap between science and religion), so I was interested when a fictional work came out by Templeton himself. Alas, the great man has no knack for philosophical allegories. In this numbingly symbolic tale, a smug clam named Columbus (get it? He's on a voyage of self-discovery) meets a clam named Agape (get it? Love helps us make ...

Wherever You Are....You Too Can Enjoy New England!!!
One year before I moved to Maine, I was visiting a friend in Yarmouth and we went for seafood at Harraseeket Lunch and Lobster. I was hooked! The meal consisted of 2 lobsters, fries and fresh native corn. The place was also packed, itself a tribute to the popularity of the food served there. The fried clams are dipped in batter which the people 'from away' aka tourists, seem to prefer. You ...

Giant Clams: A Comprehensive Guide to the Identification and Care of Tridacnid Clams

Daniel Knop

Ricordea Publishing, 1996

Good info, bad translation.
Very well illustrated, with information on these critters that can be found nowhere else. The translation (from the German) is often inept and the proofreading leaves a lot to be desired. Nevertheless, indispensible if you want to keep giant clams.

This is a beginner book and between the delightful text and the same silly illustrations, makes learning actually fun for the child. This is one you will ...

Clarke uses an informal style that helps the reader to feel comfortable while learning about problems that he or she has in opposite sex relationships. Clarke uses rhetorical questions, metaphors, and allusions to make this self-help book fun ...

7,000 Clams: A Novel

Lee Irby

Doubleday, 2005

Enter the 20's
My grandmother, Toots, often bemoaned the fact that she'd been so busy raising her family that she missed out on being a flapper, yet she could do the Charleston 'til the cows came home. Irby captures the talk, the characters, the larger-than-life Babe Ruth, still giving them a human quality that rings true. This book is not my usual read, but I found it captivating.

The Angry Clam

Erik Quisling

Grand Central Publishing, 1998

A quirky memoir
When I read this book, I laughed; I smirked; and I had to share the experience with others. I shared the book with selected friends, relatives and co-workers who enjoyed this quirky discovery. This delightful book about an angst-ridden clam is not for everyone. The reader must be intelligent and possess a quirky sense of humor. Pseudo-intellectuals will scoff at it. Humor-challenged ...

Matt Lehman

Velcro Crayons Publishing, 2004

Good Book
I really enjoyed this book by Matt Lehman. Funny, wry, insightful and true. A great read. While this is not a character-driven story, I do wish the "Kevin" character would have received more "screen time". To be honest, I could easily see a spin-off of that character into books, multi-picture movie deals, maybe even an HBO series. It's that good. There are lots of other characters in the book ...

Stephen Jay Gould

Three Rivers Press, 1999

A basket of jewels
Readers of Gould's other collections of science essays will be delighted with most of the material he presents here. With his usual scope and fine prose, he presents us with carefully researched and captivating subjects. All his essays are stimulating exercises in challenging traditional ways of thinking on a wide spectrum of subjects. The opening essay on Leonardo da Vinci provides a ...

Curtis J. Badger

Stackpole Books, 2002

Take your money and shred it instead of buying this book.
This book is a total rip off. 32 pages of text about clams and few more pages of recipes. Plus, this book could have been written by one of Jerry's kids, it is so poorly done.
