Beautiful Anthology
There comes a time in every dog owner's life when you look down at the furball by your feet and come to the realization that this is no longer just your pet; this is your friend.

A dog's capacity to love is something profound; they want nothing more than to be accepted, to please you and to ... 		  
  







  
  
The Same Smile: The Triumph of a Mother's Love After Losing Two Daughters26 reviews
Susan Mello Souza, Joanne Medeiros Harrington

Susan Mello Souza, 2002

A Really Sweet Book
This book continues, along with An Adopted Woman, Twice Born and other titles the ever-thrilling story of a birth mother's reunion with the child she was forced to give up as an infant because she was unmarried and underage, usually from the 1940s, 1950s,or 1960s. Looking back on this practice it seems so cruel to both the mother and the child. I was wondering what becomes of these young ...

Barbara Park

Random House Books for Young Readers, 2007

A very loquacious first grader with a vocabulary far beyond her age
After more than 25 books, Barbara Park's series about a very loquacious first grader with a vocabulary far beyond her age (and the writing ability to go with it) is still going strong. So I suspended my disbelief and read JUNIE B., FIRST GRADER: DUMB BUNNY to my six-year-old. In this adventure, the rich girl in class, Lucille, invites everyone over to her mansion to participate in an ... 		  
  







  
  
Complete Guide to Real Estate Tax Liens and Foreclosure Deeds: Learn in 7 Days-Investing Without Losing ...24 reviews
Don Sausa

The Vision Press, 2007

Best tax lien book so far
I've bought a couple of tax lien books after seeing some commercials on TV. This is the easiest so far to understand because it breaks down the auction process and the research process into steps and checklists. The other books tend to give you an encyclopedia article of what tax liens are, but this one clearly tells you HOW to do it not just WHAT it is.

Elizabeth Harper Neeld

I B S Books Stocked, 1997

The Book I Wish I'd Written
My friends keep telling me I should write a book about my grief, but I think that what Elizabeth Harper Neeld has written is better than anything I could produce. This book is so readable and covers every aspect of grief. My husband died four months ago, and I have found this book exceedingly helpful. Elixabeth put the most important step first "To experience and express grief fully." There are ...

Beyond Tears: Living After Losing a Child29 reviews
Ellen Mitchell, Carol Barkin, ...

St. Martin's Griffin, 2005

A Book that Really Tells it Like it is.
I thought this book was excellent and so helpful - as anything can be at a time like this...it is comforting to know that others share in this horrible journey of grief and you are not alone in your feelings. The writer/writers have all been there and will be for the rest of their lives. I cried my eyes out but found the book cathartic. I have read a few others but none have touched me as ...

Jim Paul, Brendan Moynihan

Infrared Press, 1994

The Psychological Dynamics of Loss
The title of this review is a chapter in Jim's book. I bought this book after Jim passed away on September 11, 2001 in 1 World Trade Center. He told us about this book in 1997, and I was so glad it was still in print. It is an excellent book, and it is written by an extraordinary individual. When I met Jim I could tell he was amazing, and his personality comes through in this work, which is ...

I was recently in a similar situation, and although I found this book after getting back to work, I wish I had found it sooner.

Jared, the Subway Guy: Winning Through Losing: 13 Lessons for Turning Your Life Around9 reviews
Jared Fogle, Anthony Bruno

St. Martin's Press, 2006

Awesome!!
In this day and age of immediate fixes, it was refreshing to read about someone doing it the old fashion way. No Trim Spa, no funky diets, no bariatric surgeries, no prescription medicine. And it was also nice to read that he did it slowly, without the no pain, no gain mentality of most Americans. I was able to use his story in a class I was taking this semister because his story is simple and ... 		  
  







  
  
Brush with Darkness: Learning to Paint After Losing My Sight14 reviews
Lisa Fittipaldi

Andrews McMeel Publishing, 2004

Extraordinary and Inspirational!
As Lisa Fittipaldi's "art dealer extraordinaire," I was honored to be included in her touching account of how she overcame going blind and went on to produce such moving realism in her paintings. As I read the book, I found myself unable to put it down, despite the fact that I have known the artist for more than five years and thought I knew her whole story. This book shows Lisa's journey to ...

Carol Henderson

University Press of Mississippi, 2001

From one mom to another...
I am the mother of a child with congenital heart disease. I suffered much the same as this author, only my daughter lived. This is a wonderful book & I could relate so much, even given the fact that it was not death I was dealing with. Though I did deal with the "death" of the healthy child I thought I had given birth to. And in her place was my very sick & dying child. This author had to deal ...

Jeffrey Lang

amana, 2004

An invitation to think, to reflect, to re-evaluate our inherited traditions
Have you ever felt out of place in the Mosque? Ever feel you couldn't really express yourself freely in the Muslim community? Ever wonder about issues such as pre-destination versus free-will, or the purpose of life and suffering? Ever question whether the Prophet (s) REALLY said this or that hadith? Ever feel a conflict between the need to submit to God and the need to rationally explore ...

LOWER HIGH TRIGLYCERIDES WITHOUT MEDICINE
I started researching this topic about 2 years ago when my 35 year old husband became violently sick one night, he went the next morning for a blood test and his triglycerides were over 1800. They should be around 150 for a normal person. My husband has what Dr. Murkin calls Diabetic genes (all of his siblings and father suffer from high tri's & cholesterol). His HDL was 20 and his cholesterol ... 		  
  







  
  
Paradox of Success When Winning at Work Means Losing at Life (McGraw-Hill Business Paperbacks)12 reviews
John O'Neil

Mcgraw Hill Book Co Ltd, 2000

Must read for all leaders
I first read this book when it came out, at the time the O. J. Simpson story was just breaking. It was PERFECT timing - offering insights into how otherwise highly-successful people can have darker sides show up in their lives unless they periodically renew themselves and take stock - what might be called taking an "internal audit" of oneself. I've often thought the title for this book could have ...
