Review:Great read, take with a grain of salt....."any guru who says they know the truth, actually does not. The answer to the great mystery cannot be given, only received" stay open to the Divine and your question will be answered in a way only you can understand. Read more
Review:I agree with other reviewers who have suggested this not be the first Robbins book you read--start with Skinny Legs and All (my personal favorite), Jitterbug Perfume, or Still Life with Woodpecker. This is a short and light book which I found to be entertaining airplane reading; it occupied me for about half of a Boston-to-Phoenix flight. I agree with others who found Stubblefield's character and the ending to be somewhat of a let-down. I enjoyed the tanuki parts the most--and have enjoyed my... Read more
Review:it seems impossible to review this book other than to say you should read it. It faithfully explores the human condition, the importance of asking/struggling with the best questions (philosophy), religion, sexuality, art, politics, family and biblical history, employing humor, sarcasm, eroticism, history and other novel devices. The storyline is small, like most of our lives, but huge in impact. He is an incredibly unique author who is a joy to read. I thank my dear friend John for giving me the... Read more
Review:This book will not disappoint any Junie B. fan. Barbara Park understands the mind of a young 5/6 year old girl perfectly. It is fun to view this young mind and understand her reasoning. This book was fun to read during the holidays. Read more
Review:I just finished reading Christmas Bells by Jennifer Chiaverini. The books takes place in modern day Boston as well as in 1860. Sophia is music teacher at Peleg Wadsworth Elementary School and due to budget cuts, she will be out of a job at the end of the school year (why do they always cut the arts programs). Sophia is also the director of the children’s choir at St. Margaret’s Catholic Church. She is on her way to the rehearsal for their Christmas program. They are going to perform Christm... Read more
Review:The product is as advertised and no surprise.
But really disappointed with the packaging especially because the books were new.
All the books in the package was bent and crushed in all four corners. Read more
Review:Read 20 times or more in the first weekend. Could a 3 year old vote more strongly for a book?
I hope she can pass it on to her own children. I still have the copy given to my daughters about 30 years ago. Now I must debate between Katy and the big snow or Mike Mulligan for the next gift. I like this problem. Read more
Review:Her daughter has a rare disease that changes the lives of the entire family. The author devotes time, energy and whatever resources she has to help Paula conquer this malady. As the months pass, the author writes her thoughts about life, Paula and other members of her family to share with her daughter. In addition, she jots down much about herself, what she did and why. The book reveals much about herself and what is important to her. This book is as much about the author as about her grave... Read more
Review:Pasas por la historia de todas las generaciones de la familia basados en las notas de los cuadernos de escribir la vida de Clara, una de las protagonistas, y los relatos y recuerdos de su esposo. No te puedes despegar del libro. Read more
