Craig Dorfman
Grosset & Dunlap, 2008
Perfect graduation gift!
Whether or not you or your honoree grew up listening to or reading The Little Engine that Could, you'll find this book to be the perfect way to say, "I'm proud of you, graduate. I always knew that you had the ability and would put forth the effort to be successful."
This is a great alternative to other frequently given books like The Places You Will Go.

It Could Always Be Worse: A Yiddish Folk Tale 7 reviews
Farrar, Straus and Giroux (BYR), 1990
"ONCE UPON A TIME IN A SMALL VILLAGE...
... a poor unfortunate man lived with his mother, his wife, and his six children in a little one-room hut." Everyone was crowded and the hut was full of quarreling or crying constantly. The poor unfortunate man was unhappy, and when he "couldn't stand it any more, he ran to the Rabbi for advice." The Rabbi gives some rather interesting advice to say in the least. The wisdom of the Rabbi isn't ...

I Could Tell You But Then You Would Have to be Destroyed by Me: Emblems from the Pentagon's Black World22 reviews
Trevor Paglen
Melville House, 2008
Amusing and entertaining little book
If you are at all interested in the military, insignias, secret projects, or just good conversational pieces, buy this book. Then take it for what it's intended. The author doesn't promise a comprehensive or even consistent summary of military patches or black ops; he's picked some of the more interesting emblems and thrown a few program tidbits in where he could. It's surface level insight ...

Great Book
I bought this book in the aftermath of my divorce. While reading the book, I realized I had been betrayed by most people close to me, all situations I had supressed to avoid conflict.

You can not control the way others act or how they treat you, but you can learn to better ...

Our Band Could Be Your Life: Scenes from the American Indie Underground 1981-199175 reviews
Michael Azerrad
Back Bay Books, 2002
One of the Best Books about music
I had a guy at Barnes and Noble clue me into this book. One of the best books about the underground/alternative/whatever music from the late `70 up til grunge hit the airwaves. Sure, there's a lot of bands that could've been in there and a few I could argue that shouldn't; but that ought not to matter. There's some great biographies of bands that I've always wanted a relative outsider to tackle, ...

The Little Engine That Could mini (Little Engine That Could)65 reviews
Watty Piper, George Hauman, ...
Grosset & Dunlap, 1990
a classic for me and for my kids
This is a book I thoroughly enjoyed as a child. I began to borrow it from the library for my own two boys and decided, finally, to order one from Amazon for my son's birthday. We returned the borrowed book to the library the day before his birthday and there were many tears. So, you can imagine my son's elation to open up his very own "Little Engine That Could" on his birthday. A fantastic ...

A "5" Could Make Me Lose Control! An activity-based method for evaluating and supporting highly anxious ...3 reviews
Kari Dunn Buron
Autism Asperger Publishing Company, 2007
This book is a life saver
As a school psychologist working with children with all types of social skills concerns, this book is a must. The children do not have to put things into words as they just put the item in the pocket they feel it belongs. The items are very short and can be read to the children, as well. It is so visual and concrete that a child can express what bothers him without the stress of trying to put it ...

Wish I Could Be There: Notes From a Phobic Life 22 reviews
Allen Shawn
Viking Adult, 2007
Autobiography of a phobic man
This was just what I was looking for. It's an autobiography from a phobic man and it's written medically as well as personally. He uses a lot of information yet keeps it interesting to read and learn about the life of an agoraphobic person with tons of other phobias as well.

Could It be B12?: An Epidemic of Misdiagnoses28 reviews
Sally M. Pacholok, Jeffrey J. Stuart
Quill Driver Books, 2005
This is a Must Read!
This book contains critical information that could change the lives of many people. Anyone with any sort of unexplained health problems, from Alzheimers to leg pain to autism, must read this. I also wish every doctor would read it and become more aware of the prevalence of B12 deficiency. After reading it at the library, I bought a copy for myself and one for my doctor.

It Could Happen To Anyone: Why Battered Women Stay1 review
Alyce D. LaViolette, Ola W. Barnett
Sage Publications, Inc, 2000
Terrific Book Answers the Question: Why Does She Stay?
This book clearly answers the question everyone always wants to know: why does she stay? It gives numerous examples of the many reasons women stay, and the factors in their lives that effect that choice. It is the best of any that I've read (20-30) which effectively illuminates their reasons, without demeaning or glorifying them. It is must reading for anyone involved in domestic violence, ...

Cartwheel, 2001
My Son Loves It
Even though we have a lot of classic toddler books, this is one of my son's favorites. He is almost 2, he has gone from just liking to see the dump truck on every page, to listening to the story.

Could It Be Autism?: A Parent's Guide to the First Signs and Next Steps13 reviews
Nancy Wiseman
Broadway, 2007
Our family thanks you!
As a mother of four children, I have learned to trust my gut feeling. Do not listen to what others tell you, but trust yourself. I always thought my children were different. They had certain characteristics that I did not see in other children their age. But even though I knew that something was not quite right, I did not research further until my pediatrician mentioned the word autism. He ...

The Cat Who Could Read Backwards (Cat Who...)72 reviews
Lilian Jackson Braun
Jove, 2007
The book that started it all!
I realized recently that as much as I love these books, I've read relatively few in the series given how many there actually are (30 to date, if you include the one collection of short stories). Usually laughed off by the masses as kitschy `old-lady' books, those who read them know they're quite the opposite and are actually some of the cleverest bits of reading around. Braun, a former ...
