Review:Written in first person, Anthony shares his life story through colorful antidotes that will have you rolling from laughter and also pain. Drug addition is an ugly journey, and I have a greater appreciation for someone going through it. Anthony is a great writer, easy to read, I'm sad the book is over! Read more

Review:Absolutely outstanding! I lived trough WW II in Germany (on the wrong side of the war) and I pray to God there will never ever be wars again. Nor People like Hitler or 'the Blade". This book should teach country-leaders that wars are the worst crimes against humanity. Read more

Review:Amazing book! Highly recommended for anyone that LOVES Winnie The Pooh. Bought for my 3 year old son but I enjoy reading it as well. It's the true story behind Winnie The Pooh & it's such a cool telling. Read more

Review:As the mother of a daughter on the spectrum, this book was immensely helpful. My daughter immediately identified with Temple, and I love the way her autism is presented not as a deficit but as a difference: a difference that changed the world. It's an excellent tool for teaching children about autism, both those who are neurodivergent and neurotypical. Read more

Review:Well done! A nice book of short stories of encouragement, by realizing that you're not the only one who sometimes misses the goodness in life. This book reminds me to slow down and enjoy life for what it is...GOOD! Read more

Review:This was
Surprisingly good but predictable and not a lot we didn't know. Glad he did it and it was interesting enough to keep me reading it. Wish it went beyond Anti-Christ Superstar though. Was never a huge fan but a fan just the same Read more

Review:Although this is in the children/teen section of the book store I believe it is a book written for all ages. Especially in today's America, this book is a reminder to stop the self obsession and be kind. One person being kind can have such an impact. We can change our culture one person at a time...one kindness at a time. Read more

Review:Speechless...which is hard for me to be. Woodson does an amazing job using words to bring pictures and smells right to your senses. This isn't just a page turner, but one in which you feel apart of the story every step of the way. Read more

Review:This was a great book and a great introduction to the history of WWII.
My 7 and 4 year old enjoyed it. We read this in perpetration to visit Ann Frank's house in Amsterdam.
But now my kids are asking for more.... So obviously it's been great...
I only gave it 4 star because it will probably be too simple after 3 rd grade. Read more

Review:Had to get this book for an ethnic studies class.... figured I'd learn something new, but didn't. While Beals' journal entries are the highlight of the book, she does little to shed new light on the civil rights experiences of her lifetime. While not a bad book by any means, it is also not a great book as it was really hard to finish this book. Had I bought it as a casual read, I might not have made it the whole way, but since it was required, it wasn't half bad, I have had to read a lot wors... Read more
