GRAPHIX, 2008

Claudia and her sister, Janine, may as well be from two different planets. Claudia, who pays more attention to her art than her grades, feels she can't compete with her perfect sister.

GRAPHIX, 2007

Very well done!
This third in the Baby Sitters Club (BSC) series of graphic novels is my favorite so far. Raina's drawings seem more detailed and lively in each successive book. I've been buying the BSC graphic novels for my niece who is finding real inspiration in the artwork while ...

Apple Pro Training Series: DVD Studio Pro 4 (2nd Edition) (Apple Pro Training Series)

Martin Sitter, Adrian Ramseier, ...

Peachpit Press, 2008

Good read ...BUT
Good illustrations but not that easy for a DVD STudio Pro 'Dummy'. I found that I had to go to the Apple DVD Studio Pro manual from the net to work out what to do. Then, after I had a basic understanding, and a few hours of fiddling on the computer,this book came to ...

Apple Pro Training Series: Soundtrack Pro 2 (Apple Pro Training Series)

Martin Sitter

Peachpit Press, 2007

Great as always
Another excellent training book by PeachPit. I would have liked a little more focus on Audio Editing for Voice Over and Podcast work but the foundations are there. Of course if you actually bought the software and I do not know that Mr. One star did you get some of the ...

Double Dog Dare (Kendra Ballantyne, Pet-Sitter Mystery, No. 6)

Linda O. Johnston

Berkley, 2008

Kept Twisting and Turning
There is no point in repeating the premise as most of the other reviews give a synopsis. I found the book a fun read with lots of twists and turns. Just when you thought you knew who did it, there was more to the story. I liked the way Linda brought readers up to ...

Martin Sitter

Peachpit Press, 2005

Excellent Book; But Apple's Logic Studio (Logic 8) Makes it somewhat outdated
After I purchased Logic Express 7, I was told that this book was excellent. I bought it. The book is really helpful when attempting to understand the complexities of Logic Express 7. Indeed, Logic Express 7 is a remarkable program but complex in ways which defy ...

Richie's Picks: THE WHAT TO EXPECT BABY-SITTER'S GUIDE

Ann M. Martin

GRAPHIX, 2006

Love from an old fan
So I recently stumbled upon this book once more after being out of the BSC loop for over a decade. I had forgotten just how incredibly wonderful this series is. And this is the sweet and spunky beginning that continues to charm with some impressive writing and ...
