Wishbone The Cute Little dog is going where no one has gone before!So are his friends---Joe Talbot,Samantha Kepler,and David Barnes.Its The chance of a life time for dogs and kids alike.This Adventure reminds wishbone of one of the greatest science fiction stories of all times,"The Legion of Space",by Jack Williamson.Where He Imagines himself as the space hero John Ulnar,Who has To battle aliens to save a beautiful woman who is the last hope for mankind

I have read this book and it teaches your children that friendship is important no matter what nationally they may be or what they look like. There's nothing like a true friend to grow up with.

After reading no.3 in the series,it was immediattly one of my favorites.It leaves you on the edge of your seat,uh er chair until the last page.Join Joe,Wishbone and the rest of the gang as they search for clues to the strange happenings at Wanda Gilmore's new house.Is someone playing a nasty trick on them,or could it be a real,live ghost at the Hathaway House !

BOTTOM LINE:The suspense is great with that little Jack Russel Terrior that you won't put the book down until your finished.

O my god! This book left me terrified! I seriously could not get to bed after reading a chapter! My favorite in the whole series! They should make it into 2- episode show for tv!

It a really good book, & the cover is beautifully decorated too. Good for young readers and can be addicted to it. All Wishbone fans out there must getit!!!!!

This book is a wonderful read for the younger children.It introduces them to the splender of mysteries whale letting them have a lot of fun. With the mystery of the world through Wishbones eyes you almost wish you could bring that out in every animal.

For Wishbone fans all over the world "Case of the Unsolved Case" is a good book.Especially if you like the other books or if you like the TV show!

Just two years ago, John Steele Gordon's book on the history of the U.S. federal debt would have seemed dated, even though it was published in 1997. After more than twenty consecutive years of operating in the red, the U.S. federal government had not only erased its annual deficits and began paying down the debt, but surpluses were projected over the next ten years.

This is no longer the case. A tax cut, the war on terrorism, and a slowdown in the economy have combined to push the U.S. government's outlays above its revenues. They have also made this book -- "Hamilton's Blessing" -- relevant again.

Gordon's book is two things: 1) a basic history describing the twists and turns of U.S. fiscal policy over the last two hundred-plus years and 2) a political tract condemning the latest turn U.S. fiscal policy has taken since the Great Society.

By combining the two, Gordon seeks to show that the most recent practice of U.S. fiscal policy -- that of habitually running deficits in peacetime -- is not only unprecedented in U.S. history, but also, more importantly, unsupported by any sound theory of economics.

"Hamilton's Blessing" is well-written and interesting. The book is only slightly marred by a lack of detail in some areas. How exactly does a large public debt hurt your average citizen and by how much? We never find out.

Gordon also should have kept his own political bent out of the book. Among other things, he spends three pages in a less than 200-page book detailing Jack Kemp's personal and political history, including his football career. All very interesting, but not really relevant to the history of the U.S. debt.

This book is detailed, but easy to read, giving a good background on how our national debt came to be what it is today. Teh book also covers several of the more popular schools of thought on economics, specifically the teachings of John Maynard Keynes, the namesake of Keynesian Economics. I recommend this book to anyone who has ever questioned our government's inability to pay down the national debt as that debt is known as "Hamilton's Blessing."

This book starts out very good with an insightful depiction of Hamilton's initial achievement, but gets progressively weaker as it advances into the present, as the author begins to lose interest in the historical importance of the debt and concentrates more on his polemic against the tax system. While he makes some very valid points about the Byzantine complexity of the revenue code, to me he did not draw a clear enough connection between this and the central topic. Although Gordon shows that the current debt is very different in origin from obligations of the past, his depiction of the events since World War II is altogether too skimpy. He also does not do enough to distinguish between the so-called "publicly held debt" and the debt held by other government accounts (such as Social Security), a relatively new cleavage with highly significant ramifications for fiscal policy. Finally, and this is certainly not the author's fault, the book has become just a bit dated with the projection of large surpluses and the current debate over their best use--perhaps a new edition is forthcoming. All in all, Hamilton's blessing will provide useful insights for those interested in fiscal policy, but the book could have been much better than it is.

I had to study and do a diorama for this book, for a school project, it was a good mystery and the clues and puzzles kept making you think different things as the story went on, but in the end it was a simple case of ....i'm not going to tell you , you will have to read it yourselves!

From the book jacket, "Inspired by _The Last of the Mohicans_ by James Fenimore Cooper," _Last of the Breed_ is part of the "Adventures of Wishbone" series. Wishbone, a perky Jack Russell Terrier, connects modern-day events with books he remembers "reading." In this particular adventure Mr. Leon King, a local real estate developer in Wishbone's home town of Oakdale, wants to build a Tastee Oasis fast-food outlet on the edge of the town park. He gets permission to do so, by nefarious means, from the Oakdale Town Council. The moral of the book, from which Wishbone draws parallels to Cooper's novel, is that the land is important and progress (in the form of fast food outlets) isn't measured by paving over every available inch of landscape. What is especially impressive about Steele's treatment of _Mohicans_ is that he is truthful to the original. He does not gloss over the violence (he includes a throat-slashing and the Massacre at Fort William Henry), nor does he try to change the ending of Cooper's novel. Wishbone even says, "I had forgotten how sad the ending of this story is. Let me just take a moment..." before moving back to the "triumph" over Mr. Leon King. _Last of the Breed_, while certainly not a substitute for Cooper's _Last of the Mohicans_, is certainly a good primer for reading Cooper's novel. Moreover, it treats readers, both children and adults, to a throughly enjoyable ecofriendly story. Well done, Wishbone!

This story starts out with a football game against the Sequoyah Middle School and the Glenview Middle School. Sequoyah is Sam, David, and Joe's Middle School. The Sequoyah Bulldogs are loosing to the Glenview Middle School. Toby, the Bulldog mascot, tries to make the Bulldogs feel better by cheering them on. Three Bobcat people from Jefferson Middle School, laugh at Toby. The head of the Bulldog costume looks beaten up badly. After the game, Sam says she'll repair the Bulldog head in time for the next game. Sam goes to help her dad at Pepper Pete's. She leaves the Bulldog head in Ellen's Ford Explorer. When Sam has finished helping her dad, she goes out to check on the Bulldog head. The head is not there. Who stole the head? Could it have been Toby, the Bulldog mascot? Could it have been a rival from a football team that didn't like the Bulldogs? If you want to find out who stole the head, then read this book. This was a great wishbone Mystery. I would also reccomend reading Forgotten Heroes, by Michael Anthony Steele, and this book, Tale of the Missing Mascot, by Alexander Steele.

Unless you know absolutely nothing about video production, don't waste your money on this book. It's far too basic. There are hardly any illustrations of camera and production techniques. Even though the author provides some praticle ideas about producing music videos and parodies of commercials, he glosses over way too many ideas. Whycouldn't the heprovide some actual samples of work he did students in the area of video production? Teachers need a book like this, but this one needs to be updated and revised.
