This book tells everything you want to know about singing.My voice sounded very insecure until I used these techniques and now it is full and confident.I would recommend it to anyone who has dreams of singing or just for your own personal enjoyment.

Enough information for beginners to start with and valuable information for early collector to keep in mind. EXCELLENT ILLUSTRATIONS!. It has a great variety of species for the size of the book.

As American editorial cartooning becomes more and more irrelevant, Alice Sheppard's fine book shows what a powerful tool this once popular medium can be. For ten brief years starting around 1910, dozens of women came out of nowhere and began cartooning for the womens' right to vote. Two or three like Rose O'Neil were well known as illustrators but most of the others picked up their pens simply to fight for what they thought was justice. Imagine! They won no prizes. No reprints in Newsweek. No 401K plans through their newspapers' corporate pension plans. Their only prize was the 19th Amendment. Sheppard does a great job of exhuming the stories of these funny, talented, now mostly forgotten cartoonists. Signe Wilkinson

This is a wonderful black and white photographic history for anyone with ties to the beautiful city of Richmond. I particularly enjoyed Tom Wolfe's magical preface. Our family received this book from friends who currently live in Richmond. It will be the perfect birthday or New Year's 2000 gift for my siblings and parents. This book truly celebrates so many of our family's traditions and the landmarks of our special birthplace.

Children from England and around the world share their past life memories in Children Who Have Lived Before, a title which follows cases which not only recount past lives led, but includes some thought-provoking insights on kids who've been born with lost limbs and are able to describe when and where they lost them in a past life. The case for reincarnation moves up a notch in this absorbing, unique title, packed with case histories and reflections on how children's statements were verified.

This is my favorite of Kubler-Ross' works because it is a recreation of a live presentation that she held, packed with witty yet intensely sensitive anecdotes from her work with the dying and their families. She is able to remove the black veil that has shrouded death in our culture for too long and gives dignity to the dead and dying by making the experience come through as exactly what it is -- natural and human.

This is a great book for babies. You can spin Elmo on the round-about, Help Big Bird pull a kite down from the tree, and smell lemon snow cones. This book features Elmo, Grover, and Big Bird playing at the park. One of the nicer touch and feel books for babies.

This is a handbook which I believe is needed in our community. With so many suffering from various forms of addiction, this book seems to be an important tool to complete healing for victims and their families. It really opened my eyes to the lies and truth behind this addiction. If you or someone close to you is struggling, this is a MUST READ book.

I received this book as a gift from my Sister-in-law, a Nisei herself. After about 10 years, she got a copy for herself and her mother, because she realized that she had never seen a better book on Japanese cooking. Her comment was that it had all the food that her family really fixed growing up, but that the recipes were in English measurements (i.e. cups, teaspoons, etc.), which made following the recipes much more convenient to actually use. Before, she and her mother used to laboriously convert the Japanese measurements to English ones, which was a pain. Besides trying all kinds of noodle recipes, I have used this book to make really good vinegared-rice sushi, which is always a huge hit at parties; everyone is just ga-ga; the presentation is just beautiful, truly artistic. The food is also very low fat and healthy, lots of fish. I think if I fed my family this cuisine for one month, we'd lose some serious weight. Japanese cooking is not really as difficult as you might think. There is a relatively simple cast of ingredients and untensils, most of which can be easily obtained at a Japanese grocery store in any good-sized US city. Also, it's quite possible to order Japanese specialty products on the Internet, for e.g at ethnicgrocer.com

This is well-written and deeply considered. I know of no other book which really attempts to cover the vernacular tradition cooking in England (though there are several historic recipe collections). Full of recipes begging to be tried (they work!), and full of enthusiasm too. I had the misfortune to order it from Penguin between it going out of print and actually disappearing from their list: I have been chasing and buying copies for my friends ever since.
