This book gives you a great insight in what it is important in life and inspires you to take charge of your own life and happiness. It helped me during one of the most difficult periods of my life. I recommend it highly.

This book helped me through one of the toughest times of my life. It made me look at myself in a totally new way, and I came away with such an improved image of myself and my life that I am now truelly happy! Something I thought impossible a year ago. I am not a deeply religious person and that is not a necessity even though the author is a Catholic priest. I have passed it on to my children and hope it will give them a positive start on their young lives.

My ex and I have split up 9 times in 15 years. I started reading Mr. Powell's books about three weeks ago. I have learned so much from John Powell's series already that I believe my ex and I will be able to try one more time to make it work due to these books and the improvement we see in each other and communication already. I was truly inspired by his books to learn about myself, my loved ones, and God. Thanks so much Mr. Powell!!!!

Ashcroft paints a Proverbs-like portrait of his dad's wisdom. You get the feeling that he wasn't around very much, but had a profound insight in instilling the most important life lessons in his children. It's a wonderful book for fathers who know the importance of the position God has entrusted them with, and I highly recommend it.

As a local sub-commandante for the Albuquerque Operation TIPS unit, I went door to door in my neighborhood trying to give this book away to its various denizens. As I live near a liberal university, I was quickly able to determine who the possible subversives were through each person's response. Thanks to this great book I was able to report over 30 suspected terrorist to the local PPPC (Patriotic Pentacostal Processing Center). And good news, I am told that many of the liberal subversives have now read this book and admitted to their secret tribunals that it is absolutely 100% correct in all its teachings!

In light of his role in the government at this time, it was enlightening and refreshing to read that John Ashcroft had such a great Christian upbringing. The lessons he learned from his father have served him well in public life. This book seems to strive not so much to give an autobiography of John D. Ashcroft, but to show how much his father influenced his life. It is an example to all Christian fathers. Even if the reader might not be a fundamentalist Christian, he or she will learn what an influence one person can be in the life of another. Excellent book!

I was hoping for some really different ideas. Some were but others were common knowledge ideas. All in all, I don't really regret the purchase.

Kid Concoctions is our children's favorite book series. The second book is even fresher and more original than the first. We hope Book #3 isn't too far ahead in the future. Keep those concoctions coming!

Its very rare to find a book series where the second in the series is better than the first. But thats not the case with the new Kid Concoctions book. "The Ultimate Book of Kid Concoctions #2" was a hit the first time my children and I opened the book. Almost all of the projects are made from 3-4 common household ingredients. The projects seem to be even more original and innovative than the projects in the first book! Hats off to the authors for making a book that lives up to its name and out shines the original. A must have book for any parent or grandparent.
