who read the following review by Connie Wasem which appeared in The El Paso Times:

The media pummel us with stories of violent youth. It's tempting to believe the future grows dimmer with each new generation. A recently published book, "Lessons from Our Children) offers an antidote to those portents of gloom. This collection will reconfirm your hope in today's children and remind you that young people do exhibit kindness, strength, and even wisdom. A handful of celebrities contribute excerpts from their already published books on parenting. The book's strongest appeal lies in the rest of the essays by writers and regular folk from across America.

A small booklet with simply ways to let go of everyday stress in all situations. Easy to read, peaceful solutions. Loving yourself is put simply so stress is no longer an option.

This is the perfect thesaurus for junior Spanish students. It is a small thesaurus with a range of vocabulary appropriate for beginners. The layout is quite simple. It is arranged alphabetically with quite a large font and the key word is in bold with the synonyms and antonyms beside the lead word in non-bolded letters. The thesaurus is illustrated therefore the student can associate some of vocabulary with the illustration. This book will help beginners to expand their vocabulary in Spanish and most of all understand the meaning of words at and beyond their level. This thesaurus would be helpful to beginners at any age not only to juniors.
