fantastic, original book
My daugther, 5, loves listening to this story, and we love reading it to her. It's the story of a Cuban tree frog happily living in the Everglades, who suddenly finds himself exploring the sites of New York City yet missing his home terribly. The story is beautifully told, the text lively and well written, the kind of prose that works for kids AND adults. The illustrations are great, too.

Leadership at its finest
Regardless of whether you are a great leader or are working to achieve successful leadership, this book provides great devotions. If you are searching for something on motivation then you look under the subject heading of motivation and see what stories are available. Each story is motivating, inspiring, and has modern day settings.

The stories are from some of the great leaders of today as well as some from the not so distant past. The devotions will assist any leader in determining a solution for an issue. Leadership Devotions are accompanied by scriptural references so you do not just read what someone else has said or done, but what God says about the same topic.

A great addition for any leader's library, "Leadership Devotions", should be on the shelf of all leaders. It doesn't matter whether you are a leader of many, few, or one, this book will stimulate you to become a great leader.

The Curriculum Studies Reader
Published in Paperback by Routledge (1997)
Authors: David J. Flinders, David J. Thornton, and Stephen J. Thornton
Amazon base price: $28.95
Used price: $12.00
Average review score:

Essential for an educator's library
Thornton & Flinders have assembled a sterling collection of original writing by the icons of American Education. Their commentary is scholarly; their selection only slightly influenced by their fondness for Eisner. Otherwise it is absolutely the best and most frugal single volume an educator could have for foundational writings.

Reading the original is so much more satisfying than the pre-digested summaries in textbooks, and these writers for the most part express their own theories quite well without interpretation. I've seen it used in graduate studies more often than undergrad, but it would be very appropriate for a high quality teacher preparation program in a liberal arts school that emphasizes literature and perennial concepts.


Democracy Betrayed: The Wilmington Race Riot of 1898 and Its Legacy
Published in Hardcover by Univ of North Carolina Pr (1998)
Authors: David S. Cecelski, Timothy B. Tyson, Stephen David Kantrowitz, and Michael K. Honey
Amazon base price: $49.95
Average review score:

Excellent Book
First let me say that I rarely read non-fiction and even when I do, I rarely manage to finish an entire book of it. Democracy Betrayed is an exception. The writing was clear, precise, right-on, and interesting. And, perhaps most importantly, educational. I was born and raised in North Carolina and knew nothing--absolutely nothing--about the Wilmington Race Riots or the subject of Cecelski's essay Abraham Galloway. I am female and was a victim of gender based racial violence myself so I was aware of the issues raised in Gilmore's essay and White's essay, but I have never seen the issues written about so well. What I most like about this book is that it destroys stereotypes about class and race. After all isn't it the most well-to-do who most benefit from race violence so why should we be surprised to learn that it was not the so-called "white trash" who began the racial massacre in 1898, but the rich, the ones who were most likely to benefit from forcing the elected fusionist party officials out of office and placing themselves in their offices. I never knew--it certainly wasn't taught in my public school--that in 1896 every office in North Carolina was held by a progressive fusionist party member, elected by the fusion of lower class whites and blacks. Imagine how different this state would be, how advanced in talent and intelligence, if the massacre hadn't occurred, if black doctors, lawyers, real estate agents, newspaper editors and writers, etc, hadn't been forced from the state and if the elected officials had been allowed to remain in office. Perhaps what is most important is the book succeeds in "drawing public attention to the tragedy", a tragedy that is apparantly very much in the consciousness of Black Wilmington citizens and very much needs to be in the consciousness of all humans.
