I just wanted to know are you married or single please give me a write a letter I sent you a letter to you I hope that you can respond to me?

Filled with anguish and sorrow, love and triumph, Erik Estrada's portrayal of a boy in Spanish Harlem's rise to fame as Officer Frank Poncharello puts even the most practiced reviewers to shame...you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll rue the day that CHiPs ever went off the air...

Ok. I already feel odd writing a review of this book. The anticipated audience is incredibly narrow and if you found this review, you probably know what you are looking for. However, I think this is one of the greatest books. As a law student who is planning on specializing in ERISA, this book has been an invaluable resource to me. It is the first place I turn when I have an ERISA question to research. It won't provide all the answers but puts a very complex statute into perspective. It would also benefit the non-lawyer who might be involved in benefits.

"Libraries have signs like these:/QUIET/DON'T TALK/SILENCE PLEASE/By day they're read by me and you./Mostly we do what the signs tell us to./Now imagine the library late at night./The windows are shut and the door's locked tight./But the words in the books are wide awake,/and the noisy words start to itch and ache!/They've been sitting in silence on printed pages,/not making a sound for ages and ages./Suddenly they can't bear the quiet./They burst out of the books in a rackety riot..." Poet Bobbi Katz has written a collection of 28 high spirited, rhyming, "noisy" poems full of rhythm, energy, humor, and motion that just beg to be performed and read aloud. Each verse is filled with wordplay, alliteration, and especially onomatopoeia in colorful, inventive typefaces of all shapes and sizes, that help bring the creative words and descriptive sounds to life. Susan Estelle Kwas' bold and bright cartoon-like illustrations are wonderfully expressive and add to the fun. Together Katz and Kwas have authored both a feast for the ears and the eyes that will send little imaginations soaring. Perfect for youngsters 5 and older, Rumpus Of Rhymes is a delightful, silly and innovative collection the whole family can share and enjoy, and a book that shouldn't be missed.

This book is a wake up call for many Americans in this society. I find it very appalling to know that many of us are drastically killing ourselves over money and materialistic things. It's sad that we place this "stuff" above the human life of others as well as ourselves. Plus given the fact that ignorance breeds ignorance, it's a vicious cycle from generation to generation. Hopefully, many will capture the reality from books such as this one that our American society will rise from its slumber.

For all teachers who believe that learning is seamless, this is a book to revel in. Through scripted teacher/student dialogues, it suggests how to facilitate these kinds of sessions, starting with developing the skills enabling students of all ages to write original non-rhyming poetry, to letting words take you to movement, finally to bringing in all the elements of music......form/dynamics/texture/melody etc. It is the only book I've seen which paints on this broad and lovely canvas where words become poetry and poetry becomes extended into...allmost "theater pieces" to be shared by the writer and the whole class. Good stuff. Highly recommended.

I found Susan Katz' first novel to be very moving in its portrayal of fully-realized characters and a plot that keeps the reader involved. It reminded me of the well-known novel and movie Ordinary People in its careful handling of the death of a child and how that death affects a family. I would recommend this book to anyone.

A fiction story of a family who lost a young boy to an accident. It is told from the perspective of an older sister. Deals with the whole family's struggle with their grief and how they grow past it. No illustrations in this book, and I would recommend it to the 8th grade level for reading, along with the teachers and parents.

Keating ignores solid documentation on POW/MIAs and combines old Defense Department lines with unsubstantiated rumors. Her comments about the key area of satellite imagery and pilot distress symbols ignore basic published facts. All in all a total misrepresentation of the POW/MIA issue.

Ms. Keating has produced a first class expose of the deep and tragic situation that surrounds the subject of P.O.W.-M.I.A's of the Vietnam War. She shows with astute research and a concise writing style the way that so many money hungry glory seekers have perpetuated the myth of men left behind in Vietnam. It is a shame that many patriotic Americans have been taken in by this sham, kept alive by those more interested in money than in the lives of servicemen. It is time to face reality and lay aside this fiction. The evidence presented in this book should leave no one in doubt. We owe it to the men and women who served to honor the memory of their sacrifice and move on to a new day.

Susan Katz-Keating has written one of the three best books on the Vietnam War MIA issue. Sadly, the issue has been -- and continues to be -- exploited by charlatans, frauds, wannabes, and some honest people who have been misled by the others. Ms. Keating puts the claims of the MIA enthusiasts to the test of logic and reality and their case loses at every turn. Tragically, the real losers in this whole affair are the families of the missing men, many of whom are still having old wounds ripped open by shameless self-promoters. The other two books that I recommend are: "M.I.A.: Mythmaking in America," by H. Bruce Franklin, and, "M. I. A.: Accounting for the Missing in Indochina," by Paul Mather. The Franklin and Mather books are also available from Amazon.com.
