Bobby Sherman : Still Remembering You

18 reviews
Bobby Sherman, Dena Hill

Contemporary Books, 1996

good stuff
Nice, pleasant. Could have been longer but Bobby strikes me as a nice guy who may not be over-reflective or of the mind that there are limits to what anyone needs to know about his private life.

Love in the Time of War : A Remembering

Harriette S. Sherman

Athena Pr Pub Co, 2000

Love in the Time of War
Love in the Time of War,by Harriette S. Sherman, is a beautiful and inspiring book. I found myself laughing and crying as I identified with her through the trials of the war-time separation from her newly-wed husband. The letters and narratives evoke the rhythm of the war both at home and overseas in remarkably vivid language. I want to thank the author for the gift of her courage and generous ...

Dr. Mary's Monkey Edward T. Haslam
An incredible journey.Absolutely Brilliant writing! A book that should be in everyone's home. The millions of children innoculated with the polio vaccine,that were contaminated with monkey virus'. This led to a possible development of soft tissus in later life,(and possibly AIDS). Even worse after the discovery,was the cover-up by the Government.You can NOT put this book down.The documentation ...

Ballantine Books, 1988

If you like Harry Potter, you'll love this series!
At the ages of 7-9, I was a very sick little girl. After coming home from getting stuck by needles at the doctor's office, my mom bought me this book. I think I finished the book in just under 2 days. I just couldn't put it down! It has everything; adventure, romance, drama, magic, and of course... unicorns! What an escape for anyone with an active imagination! This was a dose of girl-power and ...

bang BANG: A Novel

Lynn Hoffman

Kunati Inc., 2007

bang Bang
Edgy, sparse, witty, this novel grabbed me from the very first page. I read it overnight. Thoroughly recommend it if you're after something out of the ordinary. Five stars.

Demontech: Gulf Run

16 reviews

Ballantine Books, 2003

Buy This Book Now ( and buy the rest of the series too)
This is a great quick read series of books. The characters are well developed and you root for them throughout. Unfortunately the series has been cancelled by the Del Rey publishing firm. Every fan of the Starfist series should give this series a try and hopefully if enough buy all three, as I did, the series will resume. Fans of SciFi/Fantasy military epics will thoroughly enjoy Sherman's ...

Rape of the A. P. E.

19 reviews
Allan Sherman

Jove Pubns, 1978

I have a theory...
Is it possible that there is really only a single copy of this incredible book? We all seem to have read it, been profoundly affected by it, shared it, and never seen it again. Hmmmmmm. For 15 years I have been searching for a copy to no avail. Hopefully someone will lend it to me and it will be my "turn" again!

The Secret of the Unicorn Queen, Vol. 1: Swept Away and Sun Blind

Josepha Sherman, Gwen Hansen

Del Rey, 2004

Waiting for the next one
I too, read this series when I was younger and although 15+ years have passed, they remain my favorite series of books. I have been eagerly awaiting the re-release of these books and will purchase them again, as an adult, for a quick, fun read. I definitely recommend them for someone who's introducing their teenager to reading. I hope they get sucked into the story as much as I did.

Autism: Asserting Your Child's Rights to a Special Education

9 reviews
David A. Sherman

Oxford Churchill, 2007

Timely and excellent book
This book is a must have, especially for those who have a newly diagnosed child with autism. If memory serves me correctly, US Rep. Dan Burton had a grandson with autism and he went to a school meeting because his daughter was having such a hard time getting an appropriate education... my point in sharing this is that you need to be prepared from the very beginning (being nice and/or influential ...

The Design Patterns Smalltalk Companion (Software Patterns Series)

11 reviews
Sherman Alpert, Kyle Brown, ...

Addison-Wesley Professional, 1998

Easier to understand than the original GoF
This book gives you a better understanding of the patterns than in its original version (the GoF one). I am not a SmallTalk programmer but a 9 years C++ one. At work I had to use the GoF book and never liked reading it. In contrast to this, the SmallTalk companion is easy to read and you can understand the patterns within the first few lines of their description. Take the Bridge pattern and ...

Silver Chief, dog of the north

John Sherman O'Brien

Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1961

Silver Chief, Dog of the North
I read the Silver Chief stories as a grade school kid back in the 50's and even today just hearing the name conjurs up memories and pictures in my head of "the Great White North," the Canadian Mounties and the moving story of the bond between a man and a wild dog. I had a heck of a time finding a copy to read to my three boys -- the [Local] Public Library had relegated it to storage in a ...

The Dangerous Book for Dogs: A Parody by Rex and Sparky

13 reviews
Joe Garden, Janet Ginsburg, ...

Villard, 2007

Dangerous to Read This to Dogs
This book is an endless source of levity and promotes enough loud laughter to scare your dog out of the room! It's so great I've already gotten 3 other folks hooked on it. My husband and I were reading one of these stories aloud the other day - the one about "How to Make Your Owner Look Like an Idiot" while Scottie slept at our feet. Or so we thought he was sleeping. The next day on his ...

Colleen Mariah Rae

Sherman Asher Publishing, 2000

If you're on the fence about buying this book, jump down!
Before I finished the first chapter of this book, I saw a dramatic difference in my writing. If you want to learn how to connect with the mysterious well where all of our stories come from, if you want to understand what really grabs your reader and connects him/her with your story, read this book! It's not just for short story writers. It's for writers. Period. Look through Colleen Mariah ...

First You Fall: A Kevin Connor Mystery

Scott Sherman

Alyson Books, 2008

A dalliance with murder...
Skimming a few reviews posted here on Amazon for this book, I noted that several handled the summary portion quite nicely. I'll skip the summary, then, and speak directly to the merits of the book. I've read several historical mysteries (medieval mysteries by Sharon Kay Penman, The Alienest by Carr, Deanna Raybourn's excellent Lady Julia Grey mysteries, and others), but rarely a modern mystery ...

Jim Toomey

Andrews McMeel Publishing, 1997

Fun for every hairless beach ape!
This is the first Sherman's Lagoon collection and is it a hoot! There are several good storylines in here, including the introduction of the sun-loving polar bear Thornton, Fillmore's trip to Ascension Island for mating season, the ongoing tumultuous relationship between Sherman and Megan, the crabiness of everyone's favorite crab Hawthorne and a visit from Sherman's brother Herman. One of ...

M4 Sherman at War (At War)

10 reviews
Michael Green, James D. Brown

Zenith Press, 2007

Balanced & Interesting Examination of a Legendary Tank!
The M4 Sherman is THE American tank of the Second World War, seeing service in all theaters of war and being operated by a number of Allied units. That being said, the Sherman was a badly designed tank that was never the equal of its German contemporaries. That Sherman crews accomplished so much says more about their courage and steadfastness rather than the quality of the tank they manned. ...
