Magic Tree House #38
These CDs are amazing!! I use the Magic Tree House audio books during rest time, with my Preschoolers and Kindergarteners. They love them and I love the educational information that is interwoven into each story. They especially liked #38. My students have learned so much just from listening to these books!

Adolph Moser
Landmark Editions, 1988
GREAT BOOK FOR KIDS (AND THEIR PARENTS, TOO) !
Dr. Moser gives kids an easy-to-understand look at stress and offers great coping skills in this delightfully illustrated book. I got this book for my children after our family moved to a new city and we were all showing signs of "Popping Our Corks". This book was GREAT! The kids (and mom and dad, too) are still using Dr. Moser's relaxation techniques/coping skills to deal with our ever ...

Monday Mourning: A Tempe Brennan Novel (Temperance Brennan Novels) 72 reviews
Kathy Reichs
Pocket Star, 2005
Another excellant read by Kathy Reichs
I have read all of Kathy Reichs books. An author who has lived what they write is extremely important! Yes there are good, even some excellent writers out there, however, who knows their subject matter than one who has lived it. I am also happy for Ms. Reichs success of "Bones" the tv show. Go for it all!

No More Mondays: Fire Yourself -- and Other Revolutionary Ways to Discover Your True Calling at Work27 reviews
Dan Miller
Doubleday Business, 2008
Excellent for those needing a push
I want to specifically address those reviews that say this book is "all milk, no meat." I couldn't disagree more. I think there may be a misunderstanding about the point of this book. The point really is to give you encouragement to look for truly fulfilling work. However if you're extremely unaware of who you are and what brings you joy in life, then I suggest you figure that out first. How can ...

Today Is Monday 8 reviews
Eric Carle
Putnam Juvenile, 1997
What's Not to Like?
I like this book and my son loves it. It's a little hard to read (makes you out of breath), but we always sing it when we read it. This would make a great addition to any toddler's collection.

Real Life Relationships
I purchased Monday Morning Mentoring at the recommendation of a colleague. After reading it, I went back and ordered copies for my administrative staff.

Mister Monday (Keys to the Kingdom, Book 1)108 reviews
Garth Nix
Scholastic Paperbacks, 2003
a fresh new look at children's fantasy
I have always had a particular interest in children/teen fantasy. I normally am an adult fantasy reader, but sometimes it is nice to read a book that isn't trying to play off like the real world. This book is such a clever, compelling read that I was sorely disappointed to have to wait for more. I have never (so far) read a Garth Nix book that doesn't re-inspire me to read more books.

The title says it all!
I would give this book more stars if I could! First of all...it is spiral bound! All teacher books should be make this way. It is so easy to make nice photocopies without having to break the binding of the book.
The activities are wonderful and captivating for the students. I teach middle school learning support students who dreaded English classes. They actually look forward to sharing ...

Cherryl Kachenmeister

Kids love this book!
This is a wonderful book about feelings and the encounters a child has and remembers through the course of the week. The language is perfect - it is written as a child actually speaks, with appropriate lilt and phrasing. The black and white photographs capture the emotions with beauty. Every child will love this book, and every parent will enjoy reading it - again, and again, and again.

Cornerstone Leadership Institute, 2004
Fast, fun and practical make this book a smart buy!
I like this book for several reasons.
First, it's a neat format. By using a novel format Reed and Cottrell help deliver useful advice in a fun and readable way.
Second, it's realistic. Their advice is solid and practical, the kind of stuff you can use right away.
Third, they offer lists. I'm a big fan of lists because they help make sense of a cluttered world.
This book is a fun, fast ...

One Monday Morning3 reviews
Uri Shulevitz
Farrar, Straus and Giroux (BYR), 2003
The artwork has been underrated
I think the artwork in this book has been underrated, perhaps because only a few colors were used in printing. It's clever: the run-down New York City neighborhood is drawn in meticulous detail. I use it to show Inuit students what a city looks like! By contrast, the royal entourage is cartoon-style, not realistic. Not only does the royal family's entourage grow larger with each repetition of ...
