Review:I read some of the sample pages before I bought this book for my kindle. I got the impression that this was going to be an explanation of Aikido from the Western viewpoint--a scientific viewpoint, with some explanations into the history and philosophy. Unfortunately, I was sorely disappointed. 25% of the book deals with what the author calls "the inner sphere of aikido". All of this content is complete waffle. It tries to blend Western science with Eastern religious thought. A terrible combinati... Read more

Review:A hit with young readers. Pete is the right blend of fun with a gentle dose of life lesson (sharing, sportsmanship, trying new things, etc.)
Some Pete books are better than others and this is one of the handful I buy multiple copies of to give to children in our Reading to Dogs program. Read more

I was skeptical that I would be able to like her enough to want to be with Nick, who I've had a fascination with.

Review:Flat Stanley books are great books because they are funny and interesting. None of the books are similar to the other books in the series, and each book has a surprise. I also liked that the books have interesting illustrations, a lot of words on each page and the font is easy to read. (review by 8-year old son) Read more

Review:Finding this book was very timely. Since being the recipient of an verbal assault with a provocation toward physical violence by an individual outside of a moving theater 2 years ago, I've wondered what the "right thing" to do was? Try to have a conversation with the fellow? Have a smart, verbal response? Fight? Flee? or Freeze? That incident opened a series of conversations with friends and peers related to the illusion, perhaps even myth, of peaceful life in this culture, or any historical cul... Read more
