The authors present the topic of complementary and alternative medicine in a manner that is logical and orderly.

Well Written and Informative
I am no expert on this subject, but I was able to learn a lot in a short time. The authors compare the interrelationship of the Courts and politics in the United States, England, France, Germany and Japan. The book is well structured and easy to read. "Apples" are compared with "apples" in each section of the book, providing the reader with a cogent comparison of these systems. If you are interested in comparative law or just want to learn about the legal systems of one or more of these countries, this book is worth reading.

Inspired
I read this book from cover to cover in one sitting. I could not put it down. I was encouraged to keep on my journey through the delicate way crisis and hope was woven into the pages. I hope anyone who may need spiritual direction in their life would read this book. Also if you are trying to make sense of the rollercoaster ride that you are living; this book will help you to find peace amongst its pages. The writer was very clever in her literary style. It made me think and want to read more to see how she would tell the next part of the story. I hope she will write more books of inspiration in the future.


Fables of Aesop
Published in School & Library Binding by Atheneum (1969)
Author: Joseph Jacobs
Amazon base price: $4.95
Average review score:

A beautiful rendition of classic tales.
When it comes to childrens' books, sometimes the illustration is as important as the text. The illustrations in this book are derived from hand-stitched textile pieces - colorful and imaginitive. Sketches for the textile works are printed on the endpapers. Each page has one of Aesop's fables told briefly enough for a small child to digest, and in simple language that is easy to read out loud. There are many versions of Aesop, of course. I was looking for one that would make these old moral tales palatable for kindergarten and first graders, and this is the one.

My Favorite Fairy Tales
To start off, let me first say that in general, I like the whole series of Dover Children's Thrift Classics Fairy Tales. Filled with murder and betrayal, this book is questionably appropriate for young children, though it does leave behind some important morals.

Garrett, a 5th grader at Boise-Eliot says:
This is a great book with Native American stories from all over America. It has many stories and about four sections with about five stories in each section. I have some Native American blood and this book has stories from my ancestors. You should really read this book.

Best Children's Folk Tale Ever
A great story of kidnapping and recovery and hero Little Dog Turpie. The Hobyahs' sing song chant invites children to participate. This story was made to be read aloud. Kids love the pictures. I am thrilled to find this book back in print. It was a favorite of my children as they were growing up. We have moved long since. No local library carried it.
