Station

Great Book for Adults and Children

Dick Morris, Eileen Mcgann

Harper, 2008

May not like Morris but liked the book, excellent info
The information within this book should be a required reading of all in politics on how not to govern. Of course, it is an example of how to spend and get your way in our government. Even worse in respects to the Obama info is the lacking of experience, the media in ...

Merriam-Webster, 2002

For Spanish Language Dictionary
Great little pocket dictionary for those who don't want to carry around a heavier full-sized eng/span diction. It's not 'quite' as complete, but it's about 99% there. It's going to have all of the important words

Merriam-Webster, 2004

Great little dictionary
I wanted a dictionary that would be a great size to have by my side while I read books, in case I need to look up a word. This dictionary fits the bill perfectly. About the size of a mass market paperback, this dictionary is easy to hold and look through, compared to a ...

Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

Judith Viorst

Aladdin, 1987

It Was Fun, Bad Day Or Not
I've seen some of the other reviews and how this book is too negative. I liked it! Things don't always so as planned, but this book offers a refreshing and funny way to introduce that concept to your child. The pictures are great and the message is clear that ...

Merriam-Webster

Merriam-Webster, 2003

Amazing
This monstrosity of a dictionary weighs 3 lbs but for a good reason. It's the most comprehensive book I've ever seen, I haven't to date come across a word that hasn't been in it and the definitions are very articulate. The book even includes several pages explaining ...

Candlewick, 2006

Teachers, This is a must for your classroom this year.
Since Disney is planning to have this book come out as a movie in December, it is the perfect time to read this book in class. Then the class could go on a field trip to see the movie for a Christmas treat. I love how the book talks to the "reader" and teaches ...
