Review:I love Stacy and Clinton's witty banter and usually sane fashion advice on their show, so when this book came out, I was thrilled. It was (and still is) unavailable at my public library, but after two or three read-throughs, I will probably be donating them my copy. The basic concept of the show is repeated here: Three workable looks for a variety of challenging body types are modelled on 26 actual people who are a stunning array of ages and sizes. It was truly amazing to see these 'plain' Ja... Read more
Review:Wonderful collection. My son's favorite is "The Naming of Cats". Early on, the poetry teaches an appreciation of language and rhythm and words. Think we started reading it to him 6 month to a year. Of course, he was more engaged because we had a great cat. Read more
Review:Terrific little book of stories about cats and if you have ever owned such feline creatures who own you - you don't own them, you will recognise the common traits of all cats in these little stories.
Highly recommended, especially for the elderly who adore cats and will bring back memories of the characters their cats were. Read more
Review:I love this book! I have practically all books by James Harriot and I enjoy reading them. It is so refreshing at these hard times. Its kindness, love of people and animals, humour help to lift spirit, feel relaxed and happy. Read more
Review:Nice looking book. Originally bought this as a gift for my 9-year-old granddaughter who loves dog stories. After skimming a few of the stores, I decided that the language and content would not be very appealing to her so I decided not to give it to her, at least not yet.

Review:The devotions are short enough for a three year old to listen and participate. Our granddaughter has learned so much from the devotions. I like that they are short and doable. Most parents get very uptight about devotions and this is devotional tool that makes them simple. Read more

Review:I really enjoyed reading this book, even though I had no experience in remodeling or what to do when deciding on contacting a contractor. Now I have good Idea of what to do and what steps I should take towards deciding on my future house without spending lot of money. Read more
Review:This book really resonates with me. As soon as the author noted the self-loathing and chaos she felt when her home was a wreck I was completely hooked. It's true that many of the ideas in this book should be common knowledge but for a slob or someone who simply never learned to keep house properly the feeling of commiseration is priceless. I don't have much time for reading if I did I'd use that time to tidy my house but I couldn't put this book down. Except when I did put it down around chapter... Read more
