Harry S Franklin

iUniverse, Inc., 2008

So entertaining!!!!!
What a fun read! I read this book in less than 6 days! It is a an action packed thriller that, at the same time, evokes deep and poignant questions about humanity, society and the existence of life beyond our own solar system. If you liked the mystery and adventure of the Da Vinci Code and the sci-fi and action of War of the Worlds, this book combines the best of both and keeps you turning the ...

Jan Brett Night Before Christmas
I LOVE Jan Brett's books! I buy them anytime I see them whether on sale, old ones on Amazon as remainders, or new.. They make great gifts. I have a backup of many to give to children, particularly my granddaughters. The illustrations in this one are so beautiful it is really a keepsake to save as well as enjoy. Give it as a gift and you will make some child very happy and a parent happy,too.

Bert Stern

Te Neues Publishing Company, 2000

An absolute must-have for any fan...
This enormous volume is a must for any fan of Marilyn's. There are over 400 pages of beautiful, high-quality photographs and photographer notes. Known as 'The Complete Last Sitting' (although it wasn't her last), the photographs are among the most stunning and haunting of the screen legend. Taken by photographer Bert Stern for Vogue, the session was a milestone for Marilyn. After winning her ...

It's a Wonderful Life

James W. Rodgers, Frank Capra, ...

Dramatic Pub Co, 1994

Masterpiece
At its center, the film works because we all have wondered what would the world be like if we were never born. Have we had an impact? After all, whether it's leaving behind descendants, works of art, discoveries, or just our name, we all want some recognition, that we mattered, or at least were here. It helps define our sojourn, and allow us to extrapolate meaning from a cosmos which is random, ...

This is a fun book to read aloud to kids and adults. The characters add a bit of whimsy to Christmas!

Lara Croft: Tomb Raider

Pocket, 2001

Excellent! The movie followed the book very well too.
Long ago a meteor fell onto Earth with a magical, metallic form within it. Witnessing its power, it was forged into the (thought of) holy form of a triangle and a temple was formed to protect it. A city grew around the temple, The People of the Light were there. During an invasion, the nine planets aligned and the power of the Triangle was shown. Realizing no mortal should possess such power, the ...

Cliff House Books; distributed by Price/Stern/Sloan Publishers, 1974

A precious Seventies classic
I discovered this book at the library of the Catholic elementary school I went to around 1973. Yep, apparently the nun in charge of buying books was browsing the bestseller list and assumed from the title that it was a childrens' book. Ha haaaaw!! Rick D. and I checked it out in turns and loved it. Of course its content was soon discovered and it was removed from the library (no doubt ...

wonderful
We are using this CD with our Awana class at church. The other teachers and I were looking for a song that would teach the old and new testament books. Wee Sing has a song for each and the children love them.

AEI Titan, 2000

I loved it...
Once in awhile I find a book that comes to life on the pages before me. This is one of them. My heart raced as I traipsed through the jungle and hunted for treasure right along with the characters. The setting is simultaneously beautiful and dangerous. The love story captured my heart while the action packed drama fed my desire for justice. I read it in one sitting and didn't want it to end. ...

Barney Beagle, The boy and his puppy
Growing up I wasn't a big reader. One book however stuck with me; Barney Beagle. Now today at age 34, it is still my favorite book. This book showed me what a puppy feels like waiting to be taken home and loved. It shows you the chemistry between a puppy and a child, how a bond is built. I highly recommmend this book to all children. This is a story that will touch your heart and hopefully your ...

Old MacDonald Had a Wedding

Old MacDonald Had a Wedding
Old MacDonald Had a Wdding is a delightful book for Children 2 to 100. The illustrations are bright, cheerful, humorous and full of surprises. The rhyme is cute and easy for a 6 year old to read. The older children enjoy guessing the tie-ins with the standard nursery rhymes. I find children (and adults) reading this book over and over to their friends.

Mother Goose

11 reviews

Price Stern Sloan Pub, 1977

Delightful Nursery Rhymes & Illustrations from 1915
This is more than a kids's book to me: it is a treasured family heirloom. The Volland Edition of Mother Goose Nursery rhymes is a well-worn book that sits on our lowest shelf for our kids to access freely. This has resulted in a bit of fraying on the edges of the pages and a binding that has started falling apart. But I have no regrets that my kids have returned to this book often and with ...

Sliding Surprise Books: Who's Peeking? (Sliding Surprise Books)

12 reviews

Price Stern Sloan, 2002

Stands the Test of Time
I bought this book for my first son when he was a toddler, and now he is 12! Yes...12-YEARS-old, which means I have had this book for at least a decade. It has stood the test of time. I had another baby who just turned a year, and I was so happy that I found this book in some boxes in the garage. My newest baby has loved this book from the first time I ever read it. He always smiles when I ...

Patrick Demarchelier

Te Neues Publishing Company, 2000

Superb Portraits!
This is one of the best books of portraits that it has been my pleasure to view. Before going further, let me observe that the book contains much female nudity that would earn an "R" rating if this were a motion picture. Glenn O'Brien in the book's introduction captures the essence of the book well, "The beauty standard is being raised once again." Whether the subjects are beautiful (and many ...

Ella Elephant Scats Like That: Baby Loves Jazz
Innovative and fun! When my two year old granddaughter comes to visit she goes straight to the book, takes the CD (included) out of its envelope and hands it to me to play for her. As soon as "Ella" begins to sing, my granddaughter begins to dance. She "reads" the book and, while she may not fully understand it yet, she loves it! M Davies

Lassie, Come Home (Grosset Grow Up)

14 reviews
Eric Knight

Price Stern Sloan, 1954

Deserves its status as a classic
Still an interesting, emotion-provoking and relevant read for the 21st century's jaded youth. It's about the most basic kind of friendship and loyalty, where an animal exhibits more of both than do the humans. Some of the Depression-era references and rigid class distinctions probably aren't as relevant today, but the core of the book, the love of and for an animal, remains. Highly recommended.

Price Stern Sloan, 1997

Three thumbs up!
My wife found this in a clearance rack at our local Safeway store and thought I might like it. I actually forgot about it until 2 months later. I was drawn into it last week, and could not put it down. I think it is a wonderful role-playing adventure. I only have this one, and am searching for more books. There was a web-site that had the entire series, but it was taken off the web. If ...

Cities of Gold and Glory (New Gamebook Series)

Price Stern Sloan, 1997

AMAZING!!
The best solo RPG game ever! These books create the most amazing fantasy world. They allow you to roam about how you want to. It was planned that enough of these books would be released to cover the map that is contained in each of this series. However, I heard, that they charged too little for each book (in England I think they were just £5 or £6!!) so they couldn't finish the series for ...
