Marvin's Adventures provides room for interaction either in an academic setting as in the classroom or at home with family. The stories are funny and fun for children because of the games and songs that are within certain stories in the book. The purpose of each story in Marvin's Adventures is to educate children about nature and to build the self-esteem in our youth. As an educator, I would highly recommend this work for all elementary school age children. It is certainly a work that will promote literacy in our youth. Finally, I will state that the book is simply great!!

Breathtaking, is but only one word to describe this book. An informative journal of one of the most controversial topics of today. The content ranges from where to who, and why. It expresses some beauty on the topic and gives a new sense to an old topic. This is a book worthwhile of reading, it is informative and you should rush to buy this if you are male or female. This regards everyone as a whole. If you are a gentleman wanting to go into the movie business read this. I would also recommened this to a female planning on this. In fact I think this book would make any home a better place. Trust me.

I was privileged to personally interview this fascinating author on two separate occasions. Gary Lee Myers is living his dream of "roaming" free in the Southeastern Alaskan wilderness. One of his treks takes him on a dangerous ocean canoe trip, and that, basically, is what this story is about. The title, Pancakes & Coffee, doesn't give a hint of the thrilling adventures experienced by the author and quite skillfully documented on every page of the book. Survival skills are also taught therein. I'd recommend this book to anyone who would enjoy reading a fast-paced, captivating true story of a well-connected, well-educated Alaskan hermit, and to those who may have the same dream of living a simple, uncomplicated life, free from worldly trappings.

How many people do you know that explore unknown territory and risk their lives for adventure and freedom? How many people do you know that do not have daily conveniences like television, cell phones, grocery stores, medical doctors, medicine, electricity, etc.? How many people do you know have had encounters with bears, whales, unpredictable and unbearable weather while living in a tent, and have no one available to help for hundreds of miles? Gary Myers is a person who lives this way. There are not too many people alive today that would choose to live without modern conveniences. This book is a true adventure story about a modern day explorer. Escape the daily grind and find out what it is like to sacrifice daily conveniences for a life full of freedom and adventure.

If you are looking for a TRUE adventure story about someone who actually fights for his life on a daily basis and records his experiences,then you will enjoy this book.How many people do you know in this modern era of technology who battle mother nature and explore areas of the world where there are no other people? If you are looking for perfect linguistics and punctuation, then this book is not for you. The auther does not seem to be the type of person who sits in a college and studies the perfect usage of the English language. He is putting his life on the line and wondering how he will survive. I doubt that there are many people today who would rough it in this way. Most people are too lazy and have too many modern conveniences. It is good to know that there is still this type of rare courageous individual in the world today.
