It is a two-in-one mystery book and is about a train mystery. There is also a new character in the story from California. All in all, it is a very good book!

Divorce Dirty Tricks by this team of attys. is the ultimate in
information on how to get the proper legal representation including gutsy questions to ask an atty before you retain them.
It is written in an easy to read and vastly interesting format.
For every legal situation they provide various situations with
various outcomes... and a concise wrap up called "Moral of the story". It is both an offensive and a defensive book in covering
everything imaginable involved with divorce. My only criticism is
that there has never been a reprint of this must have for anyone
who is or about to be married,no matter how well it is going.

The authors shared the real life emotions that young children feel when they have to deal with the divorce of their parents. This book is a workbook for a young child, to be read and talked about with a caring adult. The story of Kristen, the cat, was skillfully written to help children feel understood, how to handle new members of the family that might come, and how to not be the "messenger" for each parent. It inspired me. It gave me hope that I can help them feel "whole" again. It is the book that I will choose as a gift for adults who want to help young children understand and talk about what they are experiencing.

This book turned out to be just what I was looking for. I have read many books for divorced fathers, but this book goes well beyond explaining the reasons why fathers get divorced. It deals with issues relating to how to cope, how to plan your future, etc. I found this book here online after searching quite a long time, because I've been told from our local bookseller (who could not get me a copy quickly enough) that the limited runs sell out fast. I believe that it is well worth the wait

Thirteen-year-old Robert Stevens, known as Qwerty for the mistake he made in his third grade keyboarding class, unearths in his backyard a large mysterious wooden box that has the name Thomas Edison inscribed with gold lettering.

Qwerty and his best friend Joey who lives in West Orange, New Jersey in a community called Llewellyn Park bordering the mansion that Edison once lived in,locked themselves in his room to discover what was in the aged box. To their surprise, it was Thomas Edison's time Machine.

Unsure whether to give the machine to the authorities, sell it for millions, or take it to school to show off to their friends, the boys decided to find out how the time machine works before bringing it out of obscurity.

Qwerty hooked up the wires from the machine to his computer and with a touch of a button he was transported into Thomas Edison's workshop where he helped him develop the electric light bulb. Qwerty Stevens had no problem getting there. However, he needs his older sister, whom he hardly says more than one word to, to help him return home safely.

The author cleverly depicts Edison's story while adding circumstances that bring his character into the 21st century. In addition to the text, Gutman includes a "Truth and Lies" section in the back of the book with one recommendation "Read the story first!" Also included are black and white photographs of Edison's mansion and laboratory. In the far back of the book is the chronology of Thomas Edison. Younger children will also enjoy this book as a great read aloud. Living in the next town over from West Orange, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book because the author captured the authenticity of the town. Children everywhere will enjoy this book but I know it will be a big hit in New Jersey.

This book is a summary of research into how 100 home educating families in Britain and Australia did it. How they went about the day-to-day business of educating children outside of school. Useful home education research is rather thin on the ground. What there is tends to concentrate on the fact that home educated families are N grades ahead of their school-going peers in just about every subject in which their parents can hot-house them. For the 'ordinary' home-educator with 'normal' children this can be the wrong sort of message. Dr Thomas came to his research in a roundabout way: he is a professional educationalist and he was interested in the process of interaction between a single teacher and pupil. No school that he could find did this, so he started to talk to home educators. His book is full of anecdotes and interviews and observations about the process of (home) education. Many of them are immensely heartening and validating. He finds, for example, that a disproportionately high number of home educated children are late to read - some leaving it until they are 10, 11, 12 years old. When they do decide that there is value in them thar words, they rapidly become competent, indeed omnivorous, readers. The book is certainly not a dry, academic thesis (although as an academic myself I value the rigour and organisation of Dr Thomas's research skills) but is readable, engaging and inspiring. It will give struggling and sailing home-educators lots of good ideas and will help to strengthen them in their resolve to do what they think is best for their children. It is also interesting for those in the school-based educational system for its insights into individualised instruction. Just the thing to give to your hostile Auntie Mabel ("if those children of yours don't go to school, they'll be social lepers") for Christmas.

Indy and his father and mother go to Egypt in 1908 and meet T.E. Lawrence or Lawrence of Arabia. They all go on an expadition and find the tomb of Kah and when the man responsable for guarding the tomb dies, Indy fears the curse of the mummy's tomb has come true. You, dear reader, will be taken on adventure to the Pyramids and you will meat some facinating people along the way.

My son loves to read this book over and over. It's and early reader book about a wise guy baby elephant who gets his just rewards in the end.

I mainly bought the book for my first science experiment on the purification of water. There was only one experiment that I could use. It was easy to follow, the materials were easily availble. Color or else more pen drawings are needed so that you set up your science experiment right. It is a 6th - 7th grad level.
