By showing us his deepest fears and greatest challenges, he ultimately takes us on a journey of touching triumph.

Forensic Art and Illustration102 reviews
Karen T. Taylor

CRC, 2000

Fascinating and invaluable!
Even if you have no sculpting talent whatsoever, this book is an engrossing read and a valuable reference for any crime or mystery writer. Karen Taylor has consulted for such hit TV shows as CSI and BONES and she definitely knows what she's talking about. The text is lucid and engaging and not at all intimidating, while the photos and diagrams alone are worth the price of admission!

I Love YOU Stinky Face!
I just love reading this book to my grand child. It is a great introduction to unconditional love. This book should be on every bookshelf! All of us have times when we wonder if we are loved. It would do us well to remind children, starting at a very young age, just how special they are to us. I Love You Stinky Face

Baby Faces38 reviews
DK Publishing

DK Preschool, 1998

Highly recommended as the first book for a baby
This is the first book that my daughter (now 12 months) clearly responded to, and has remained her favorite. From 4 or 5 months she would smile and coo at the babies' pictures, and showed clear preferences -- unlike another reviewer's child, mine doesn't kiss the babies, but she does bang her head into the page if she likes the baby! This book is slightly smaller than the standard board book, ...

Zimm

Harpercollins Childrens Books, 1996

Bring back these books!
My three children (6, 4, and 1) have grown up with Ba Ba Ha Ha and Oooh Oooh Moo. My older children read these books now to my baby, and he loves the books as much as my older kids. These are the perfect books for infants, and they're part of a handful of books that my older kids still remember and love. I was searching for these books for my friend's baby, and am terribly dissapointed that ... 		  
  







  
  
I Am Your Disease: The Many Faces of Addiction29 reviews
Sheryl Letzgus McGinnis, Heiko Ganzer

Outskirts Press, 2006

It is about hope - the most desperate kind
Most people live under the axiom 'where there is life there is hope", this book starts the process of finding hope when life is gone as we know it. It isn't only about dying, but about grief and the very act of living - no matter what. It profoundly demonstates that those affected by someone else's disease are not crazy and not alone. Noone is more or less important and noone has more or less of ... 		  
  







  
  
Scrappy Project Management: The 12 Predictable and Avoidable Pitfalls Every Project Faces18 reviews
Kimberly Wiefling

Happy About, 2007

A fast, fun read that provides realistic, effective advice for PMs
It's rare to find a project management book that's actually laugh-out-loud funny, but Kimberly pulls it off with panache. Her energetic, take no prisoners style emulates the environment of most modern projects, and provides outstanding and practical advice into the bargain. Full disclosure: I'm one of Kimberly's editors. (Sharp-eyed readers would have spotted that, so I'll cop to it now.) I ...

Getting to know Poser 6
I found Practical Poser 6 a valuable training tutorial into the world of 3D graphics. Not only did it explain the functions and usages of Poser 6 in understandable terms, it illustrated examples in easy to follow, step-by-step instructions. This book is a recommended must-have for individuals who are thinking about entering the realm of 3D graphics or serious artists who want to refine their ...

Elizabeth Lee Vliet

Chelsea Green Publishing Company, 2006

Ugly cover, great information
If you're not put off by the awful cover choice, this book is full of great information, charts, health tests, etc. I read this book in a 2 hour sitting, and took it with me to my nutritionist who specializes in PCOS and it really helped to guide my questions and what modifications I'd be making in my life. Definitely worth reading- especially if your newly diagnosed or struggling for ... 		  
  







  
  
The Spirit of Early Christian Thought: Seeking the Face of God28 reviews
Robert Louis Wilken

Yale University Press, 2005

a feast of the church fathers
In a previous volume called The Christians as the Romans Saw Them (1984), Robert Louis Wilkin, professor of the History of Christianity at the University of Virginia, explored the broad and deep antipathy that developed in the first five centuries toward the Christian movement, at least as that was expressed by the cultured elites. He presented the views of the pagan critics with both sympathy ...

"Wretched" might be the biggest difference between the Algonquin Indian Cinderella and European Cinderellas. Over 1500 versions have been collected throughout the world. They have in common the themes that justice will prevail and evil will be punished. These are the common denominators, no matter where the story may be set. "The Rough-Face Girl" takes place along the shores of Lake Ontario. ... 		  
  







  
  
Creative Cloth Doll Faces: Using Paints, Pastels, Fibers, Beading, Collage, and Sculpting Techniques22 reviews
Patti Medaris Culea

Quarry Books, 2004

Fun and easy!
That's what this book is good at. Easy to follow directions, great patterns, that can be changed to fit - your doll. But most of all, a easy way to get that face looking, like a face. Not a blob of colors, where the eyes are not in the right place, or are too big on one side, and smaller on the other. This book also has great tips for those who are more experianced. The face intimadates most ...
