MY Mommy's having a baby - Marie - Age 6 - Chicago
MY mommy's having a baby. Her friends had a party and they brought gifts for my new brother or sister. I was excited when there was a present for ME! It was the Mommy's Having a Baby Book. Mommy read the book to me and she wrote in the book. I drew pictures and mommy and me pasted pictures. We had so much fun and I learned a lot too. Mommy told me that the book is MY keepsake.

Very Inspiring!
I live in suburbia, in a newer development where all the homes pretty much look the same. I am always on the look-out for creative ideas on decorating because I don't want my interior to look like it stepped out of one of the well-known home decor stores and catalogs. This book was an inspiring find! Lots of pictures and informative text...I have looked at the pictures over and over again. ...

A Must Buy - Great gift item for all mothers and fathers
This book is charming! It is a guaranteed feel good experience and a must buy for all your friends and family. I have given it joyfully to new parents and to every mom at my kid's elementary school because it brings a smile to their face. And, don't forget the dads -- I slipped it in the newspaper of the father of my son's best friend, and he e-mailed me that he learned a lot and couldn't stop ...

Cool Cocktails: The Hottest New Drinks and the Best of the Classics

A lovely book, beautiful photographs...
A beautifully photographed and laid out book that has some wonderfully good recipes. This book is so "pretty" you'll want to display it. I had this one out on my coffee table for a while. It is a lovely thin hardback that fits on top of any other books that you may already have on your table. The main downside that I may mention though, is that this book is more modern, "trendy" cocktails. If ...

French Country Living

The Essence of the French Culture
Outside of Paris and the other bustling cities, France's image is of small farms, atmospheric medieval villages, and of an age well past but well preserved with an understated elegance. Even newly built houses are often designed with a view towards looking like the 19th century. In this book, hundreds of color photographs illustrate the essence of the French countryside. The book is in two ...

Ryland Peters & Small, 2005

Shamelessly take the credit for Fran Warde's easy, chic recipes!
I actually bought this book twice. Once, it was for around $75 in a Tokyo bookstore. (The second time was a few weeks ago from Amazon.) It was difficult to part with the $75, but after a month or so of wavering, I splurged. I never regretted it for a minute! Believe it or not, the first copy was stolen from me during a party (but at least the thief had good taste), and I looked for another ...

Wonderful!
I am a Crystal Therapist, so I love to find books that talk about crystals, give detailed descriptions, uses, and other information about them. (I love crystals and stones in general, so another reason why I love finding great books on them) I have several crystal books and I have to say I am most happy I found this book! I ordered it, along with the new edition of The Book Of Stones and have ...

Easy cooking, delicious meals!
This is a great book for someone wanting to try Italian cooking. I had never cooked risotto before, and now it's a regular part of meals at our house. The recipes are very easy to make, provided that you use ready-made vegetable stock. However, the recipe for home-made is also given. Photos are ilustrative and the food is delicious. Great book!

beautiful and magical
This is a wonderful little book and one of my favourites in my magical library. The lovely photographs are magazine quality and the layout of the text is modern and pleasing. That said this is also a great spellbook. Spells are simple enough for a novice but experienced hearthwitches should still find them effective, especially if they're like me who's really into creating a magical home, both ...

Problem Solving for Awkward Rooms
The book addresses issues such as: *creating privacy *adding character *warming up a room *dealing with narrow spaces *refreshing a room *expanding small areas The photos are fairly small, but that does allow for many examples. Most of the ideas are easily applied to your own situation, so give it a try.

I love this book
I checked out this book when I was trying to organize my living space. If you like clean, open, unadorned, light living areas; this is a great book. I checked it out from the library three times and then eventually decided to buy it. My boyfriend looked at it, and he said that he thought it was common sense but he liked the pictures. The main thing that I liked about the book is that it ...

Great ideas which are reasonably easy to make!
This is the best book on curtains that I have seen - and I've looked around quite a bit. I was looking for several things to help me make curtains for my new home. Although I have some sewing experience I would not call myself an expert sewer. Many of the books currently available are really geared towards people with my level of experience or less, including this book. I wanted good pictures ...
