Peter and the Wolf
We recently were able to see the play version at a local children's theater and my daughter became hooked on the music and story line. After weeks of downloading the music on line, we finally bought her this book, and I'm so glad we did! The music is beautiful, and she is able to identify all the characters by the music playing and identify the instruments. We like the gentler story line, as ...

Sucked us and took us on an adventure!
I shared the series with our kids, (5,7 &9). There were bits that caused all three to sit on my lap but they wouldn't let me stop reading. The whole series is well written and thought through. It engaged the kids from page 1 to very last paragraph. "Keep reading!" That's all I heard for all three books. Bravo, Mr. Barry & Mr. Pearson! It's having books like these published that keeps kids ...

Novice here...
I'm a complete novice to finances. Or at least I was before I read Crash Proof. It made all of those fancy stock market terms easy to understand. I was already anticipating some kind of crash because Ron Paul was saying it was coming, and he's been right every time! But this book made the coming crisis more scientific. Also, the part about Gold is genius. Get gold! GET GOLD!

When the government takes the capital out of Capitalism, the only signal left is static.
Mr. Schiff's new book is a follow up to Crash Proof. I bought six copies of that book, because it was my introduction to real economics and I wanted to share it. Both his books are important because they accurately describe economic function in the context of what is happening now in our markets. He understands what is transpiring and warns people in advance. Protecting yourself from the ...

Stop hoarding and Start Living!
The really pleasant thing is that Peter Walsh makes you laugh at yourself for the ridiculous clutter you have clung to. And he has some great little nuggets to remember: "If the family heirloom is gathering dust in the basement, don't tell me it is something important or has personal value." And concerning that over run basement: "It's not like you come downstairs one day and make a decision ...

Timeless, practical advice, immediately implementable
In this short book are some of the most trenchant, clearly-written statements on how to be an effective executive ever written. It contains some philosophical statements, more real-world examples, and most importantly, it details actions the executive can take to become immediately effective. I wish I had read this 20 years ago! Other books like Good To Great and Built To Last are excellent, ...

Matthiessen does it again!
Shadow Country (Modern Library) I wondered why I should read another 900 pages of the Mr Watson saga. After all, I'd already ready the previous Watson books. But since i am a huge Peter Matthiessen fan I bought the book anyway. Time and money well spent, this is another masterpiece. He takes the reader so deep into the Florida backcountry of yesterday that you, like me, will probably catch ...

This is a story, not for the squeamish, that will leave your head spinning from an out-of-control life style that few of us ever ...
