Cathy Pavia's inspired illustrations keep us coming back and finding more of Andy's bad deeds! When is she coming out with her next book? Is she in line for a Caldecott?

Have all the "Carl" books and HAD to buy "Bad Dog Andy" to round out the collection.

As a newcomer to the Northwest, I was delighted and relieved to find the Maritime Northwest Garden Guide. It is a planting calendar for year-round organic gardening and so much more. Growing in this climate is so vastly different from my experiences in the Midwest that sometimes I felt like a complete novice. Month-by-month, the Garden Guide provides a nearly exhaustive list on which seeds are appropriate to sow indoors, sow outdoors, and sow under cloches. Following their suggestions yields year-round produce. It's full of great reminders that January is the time to start planning your crop rotation, February is the time to have your soil tested, March is the month to begin the soil amendments and April is the time to begin hardening off. What? you don't know what "hardening off" means? You really need to buy this book!

As a student, I found this book to be inadequate and rather frustrating. Lack of example problems causes extreme weakness in material coverage. Problems at the end of each chapter are confusing at best and require extensive guidance from a qualified professor. Also the book is far overpriced. I would definitely prefer to use another book for my class.

This is a very good book for indepth information into the working of jet and rocket propulsion. However, as a student in aerospace engineering, I find it lacking examples of any kind throughout the entire book. Without examples it is very difficult to take in and understand fully what the author is discussing. Unless you already know a good deal about engines, this might not be the book for you.

I must say i was highly impressed with this text. Not only did it cover the material required, it also managed to clear up the confusion the resulted after every lecture with the prof. In fact, i learned airbreathing engines and rocket systems almost soley from this book.
