A perfect book for beginning readers!
This is a heart-warming story of a kitten with many fears. He overcomes his fears in the story because of his compassion for a smaller, more needy animal than himself. Through repetition in the text beginning and emerging young readers will find this a delightful, easy-to-read story. My daughter has read it so many times the cover and pages are worn with love! It was the first story she mastered reading cover to cover.

Tirant lo Blanc
This book is a must read for the historical enthusiast! It was written by a knight about knighthood. The viewpoints and situations are very far removed from our preconceived ideas of the middle ages. It is written very well and reads almost in a 'modern' way. This book was difficult to read in some places, but for the most part was so interesting that I couldn't put it down.

harrowing, yet essential
The English release of the 1985 findings by the Brazilian Catholic Church is among the most gut wrenching books I have read on any such subject in the last few years. While it is commonplace amongst scholars of Latin American or so called "Third World" nations to learn or read about such obvious atrocities, it never gets any less easy to digest or to fully comprehend such acts without asking the age old questions- How? and Why?

The study was an immense undertaking for the Church, and the findings are painstaking in their details- discussing rigged trials in order to quickly kill off "ememies," to the day to day horrors and brutality that everday people endured in the name of state "security," to the AI5, a political police action designed to crush the political and intellectual MPB (Musica Popularia Brasilia) of the late 1960's, which included the so-called "Tropicalia" movement (which included musicians such as Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil- both of whom were arrested and deported in 1969-70- Gal Costa, Tom Ze, and Os Mutantes). No one was safe from the state.

The goal of the study was to expose the brutality of the regime, and this was indeed successful, as every lst detail was placed within the covers of this book. It will likely take several generations to know if the study was a success in terms of curbing the violence and its hideous effects on the everyday person. Hopefully, it will help everyone learn from its collective past lest we be condemned to repeat it. A powerfully riveting study.

Excellent hands-on book for professionals or graduate studen
This book is a book full of information for the practicing clinician as well as the neophyte. It provides the reader with theoretical as well as practical application. Each psychological disorder is approached by first presenting a description of how the client looks, what the client is feeling. Next there is a presentation of theoretical explanations for the disorders, along with the therapeutic treatment techniques that are most effective. Interspersed thoughout the text are current research findings. This is a must-have book

GREAT !
Nice texts, good grammar points, even games and crosswords, a few song lyrics (National Anthem and Malaika). I really enjoyed learning swahili with this book, and would also highly recommend it to anyone whose swahili needs brushing up. A tape also exists, and can be useful for pronounciation.

Unbeatable Beaks is Unbelieveable!
This is a great book for children. They learn about the different types of beaks birds have. The rhythmic style of the words makes it a great read aloud. The pictures are bold and colorful.

Total information for the non-informed and others.
This book is an excellent source on the Shar-Pei. There is so much specific to the Shar-Pei that you must experience it firsthand to understand it which she does wonderfully. I wish I had this book when I first started with the breed. Solutions and remedies that she offers in the book have gotten results with my dogs that have even shocked my vets! A must have for ANY Shar-Pei owner, whether it's your pet or your a breeder.
