Scott Kelby

Peachpit Press, 2006

Great Info...and Humor
Unlike a previous review, I liked the humor. Reading a dull, 'school book' is not my thing. You can learn a lot from this book and not fall asleep doing it. I have read several of Scott's books and like them all BECAUSE they are funny at the same time they are teaching you the facts that you need to take good shots...or work an Adobe program. I'm just a serious amateur, but I've shot some ...

A Great Sequel to a Spectacular Series

Bella, in a tragic turn of events, is left empty-handed without the love of her life, Edward Cullen. She feels emotionally drained and becomes a zombie for a few months. When she snaps back to reality, she understands the impact it's created on her fellow students and ...

Rich Dad, Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money--That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!2186 reviews
Robert T. Kiyosaki, Sharon L. Lechter

Business Plus, 2000

Rich in other ways too!
When I first purchased this book, it was for the simple purpose of trying to educate myself more on the concepts of how the millionaires create their success. While I was not disappointed in any way with the context, what surprised me was that many of the fundamentals written about how to attain prosperity are spiritually based. Robert has done a great job in explaining the "negative reality" ...

Peg Tyre

Crown, 2008

This Book Really Matters And Should Be Required Reading For Every Public School Teacher in America
I found this book to be very interesting. I don't have a son, but three of my closest friends each have boys the same age, three women who don't even know each other. One is white, the other is black, and the third is Hispanic, living in different parts of the country, with different levels of education and career success. I have bought copies of this book for each woman, although now their ...

The Daily Five: Fostering Literacy Independence in the Elementary Grades46 reviews
Gail Boushey, Joan Moser

Stenhouse Publishers, 2006

what a difference
My district has used a reading and writing workshop approach for at least ten years. This book has truly helped me to step back and take the time needed at the beginning of the year to establish strong routines. I don't believe the information is new, it is just laid out in a consise, reader friendly manner. My students are much more on-task and quiet during literacy work times. The "first 25 ...

The Official Guide for GMAT Quantitative Review24 reviews

Graduate Management Admission, 2005

Excellent Preparation Book for the GMAT
It has been seven years since I have been out of college. My math skills are very rusty. The Quanative Review is the best book to get because it is written by the GMAT Staff. Each question comes with an explanation of how the problem is solved. The book is broken down into sections with complete explanations. I am not good at math at all and there are over 300 problems to solve from basic ...
