The No-Cry Discipline Solution : Gentle Ways to Encourage Good Behavior Without Whining, Tantrums, and Tears

Should be required reading for new parents
I'm only slightly more than half-way through this book. However, in the last three days I have used techiniques from this book (on my three year old) and all three times successively. In my opinion, books of this nature are really psychology books (how to deal with another person, in this case a toddler/child, and how to put things into perspective for ourselves). Most everything here we ...

Thom Singer Does It Again
Thom Singer is one of my favorite networking authors. Why? He practices what he preaches. He not only tells me how to network, and how to get more out of business and professional relationships, he does it himself. Other network authors are too busy networking with "important people" to network in my space (with the average, hard-working professional that we all work with) to really be ...

Grief Watch

Absolutely beautiful!
I found this book while trying to find a book to explain the loss of my father to my 3 children. After stumbling across it in the bookstore, I believe I found a gem. It really told a beautiful, very touching story about Grandy who is suffering a loss. It really shows the different stages of grief one goes through and it really hits home. I had my kids and sister read it, and then I gave it to ...

While there are other inspiring books for people with painful chronic disorders, this one can really reach out and touch the person with IC. It is also great that Cathy ...

A Book that Really Tells it Like it is.
I thought this book was excellent and so helpful - as anything can be at a time like this...it is comforting to know that others share in this horrible journey of grief and you are not alone in your feelings. The writer/writers have all been there and will be for the rest of their lives. I cried my eyes out but found the book cathartic. I have read a few others but none have touched me as ...

During my research on domestic violence to feature in Sisters in the Lord Magazine for October, which happens to be Domestic Violence Awareness Month, I ran across Lynn Tolson's, Beyond the Tears: A True Survivor's Story. By the second paragraph of Beyond the Tears, I was transported into the mind of a young woman bent on suicide and traveled with her through her suicide attempt, discovery, ...

Very Well-Written
I read this book two summers ago (yes, I unfortunately turned it into the cliched "summer read," but it doesn't have to be that way), and loved it. I decided, not long ago, to re-read it, and once I did, I picked up so many small facts and witty one-liners that I hadn't picked up on before. This book is so jam-packed with clear details that it's almost impossible to read them and let them ...

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and corrosponding with the author, as I went
A lot was learned about the subject matter of Shed No Tears. It seems not all the facts of the era had been fully exposed, until the writing of this book. I also enjoyed learning the cast of characters. Some I dispised, some I fell in love with. To this day, I still think of them. I highly recommend it.

"Tomorrow is useless to a dead man"
As is true of almost any tale of cyborgs the question of the difference between mechanical consciousness and mechanized humanity is one of the driving forces behind the Battle Angel Alita series. At what point does a combination or brain, spinal column and hardware gain or lose its human nature. In this second stanza in the series, Alita, who was brought back to life in the first volume, ...

Loss Made Concrete
It is easy to forget the personal voice of violence, private and collective. It is even easier to distance oneself in dates, place names, and events. - this number of human cargo shipped to that port, the price that could be gotten for a "prime" young man, the political and societal arguments swirling around the economics and morality of the slave trade. Day of Tears strips away all defenses ...

Read on!
I Loved it! Its fast paced dialog and well developed characters got me from the start. I read the excerpt twice and I could find no reference to a husband who was afraid of vampires, in fact there was no husband at all so I'm not sure where some other reviewers got that part. I loved Lara's snarky attitude and thought it was refreshing to see a female character who's not stumbling over herself ...

I was surprised to find tears of laughter from a book on Vietnam. This is one that I will read over and over and send to friends for the Holidays. A new twist and a story not previously told about the war. What a trip what an adventure.
