We LOVE this series!!!
We own all of this series! Started reading them when my daughter was 4 (she just turned 5 now), and they are age appropriate. Not too scary and always a happy ending. One book only takes us about 4-5 nights worth of reading together. The longer ones are good too "Fairy Dust and the Quest for the Egg" and "Fairy Haven and the Quest for the Wand", but they are a little bit scarrier than the ...

A Great Book!
Opinion: I liked this book more than The Trouble with Tink, but not as much as I liked Fairy Dust and the Quest for the Egg and Vidia and the Fairy Crown though. Lily is much better than I imagined her to be and so is her story. Lily's friend Iris is funny and sensitive, making the story have a deeper meaning than just what you're expecting. This made the sory mean more to me. Summery: Lily ...

Wildlife in the Garden: How to Live in Harmony With Deer, Raccoons, Rabbits, Crows, and Other Pesky Creatures

Best if sipped like fine, Kentucky bourbon
Gene does a fine job wrestling with this immense topic. As a house owner on the remotest fringe of suburbia, I can attest to the accuracy of the observations in his book. Wildlife in the Garden has many characteristics in common with Gene's other writing. Some of the most enjoyable lines are his observations on human nature. Another characteristic of Gene's writing is the density. He ...

Great in the Car
We are a whole family of fairy lovers and this is great to entertain kids in the car. Good idea to offer this as audio; I wish more kids books would follow suit. We have the two paper books too that correspond with this. The art is typical Disney (maybe a little too perfect because it looks computer generated) But it is still very beautiful, of course, as everything Disney. As far as the ...

Hyperion, 2003

A Warm-Hearted Look At Enduring Friends
This a wonderfully written book that leaves you with a very warm and nostalgic feeling. Yeah, it's about four great players for the Boston Red Sox but it's so much more. I'm afraid to say much more because it may sound trite or have too many cliches. However, it really is a story, as advertised, about an enduring friendship among four guys. The more you know about some baseball history, like ...

The Lee Pesky Learning Center

Ballantine Books, 2004

A "Must Have" for all Parents
This is a really awesome, simple book for parents and parents-to-be. The suggestions are easy to follow and the book has a lot of great hands-on activities that you can do with your child. I have mine packed in the diaper bag and pull it out when we are in the car or find ourselves with a few extra minutes to kill. This book would make a great gift for expectant mothers.

Julius: The Perfectly Pesky Pet Parrot

Pacific Press Publishing Association, 1994

Allowing parrots to fly free outdoors is stupid and foolish.
This book had potential as a good book for children -- Until the child who owned the parrot, at the advice of his veterinarian, allowed the parrot to fly outside without restraint. This allowed the parrot many adventures, but at great risk to the parrot. I bought this book to give to my local library so children would have the opportunity to get to know about the joys of having parrots as ...

Few and Chosen: Defining Red Sox Greatness Across the Eras

Johnny Pesky, Phil Pepe

Triumph Books (IL), 2004

fun book
A fun book. A good idea to have a player rank other players. Too many errors, though. Misspells Boo Ferriss name, and some others. Some facts are wrong, too. The book says Pesky held the ball so one wonders did he really write it? And why is there a picture of Mickey Mantle swinging at a ball inside both the front and back covers? Is that a publisher's joke to anger Red Sox fans? It's still ...

Andrea Perry

Atheneum, 2003

Outstanding book!
Andrea Perry is an incredibly talented and creative poet. She has tapped into the interests, concerns and humor common to all children with this book. My son roared with laughter, begging me to re-read many of Ms. Perry's clever poems. He especially loved "Veggies Be Gone", a hilarious ode to the hatred of all things green and leafy. Alan Snow's wonderful illustrations captivate the reader. ...

The Word Detective: Solving the Mysteries Behind Those Pesky Words and Phrases

Evan Morris

Algonquin Books, 2000

A new meaning for "Infotainment"
It's not often we find a "reference" book that delivers on the promise of its title and entertains at the same time. "The Word Detective" provides information on word and phrase origins and debunks myths about them. "Posh," for instance, isn't an acronym for "port out, starboard home." "Sabotage" wasn't coined as a result of French workers tossing their wooden shoes (sabots) into machinery. And ...
