I am a former patient of Dee's and can tell you first hand it is an excellent book for those of us with chronic back problems, as well as anyone who wants to learn some low-impact exercise techniques.

An incredible begining book for a first time reader. My daughter 4 yrs. old picked it up and began reading, really reading for the first time. The relationship of words and illustrations make the book easily understandable, fun to look at and easy to follow along with for first time readers. After I bought this set of books I went back and purchased them all. Highly recommend this for first time readers. A smile will show you why.

Another object book with content that matches the originality of the design. Herzog & De Meuron, the Basel-based architects, are best known for their art museums, but also for creating buildings that are works of art--even when the program is as mundane as a railroad signal box. This companion to the recent CCA exhibition is an anthology of interviews, stimulating essays by artists and clients, and pictures of objects that have inspired them, in addition to an illustrated catalogue of their 200 buildings and projects. (Michael Webb is the book reviewer for LA Architect magazine.)

My daughter is going into kindergarten and she is already reading (I think this has a lot to do with her using the Reader Rabbit Complete Learn to Read System.) Anyway we needed some books that had:

1. limited vocabulary, especially words that can be sounded out (this makes her proud) 2. repetition (to reinforce new words she just sounded out) 3. minimum pages (let it be over before she gets bored) 4. interesting story lines

Well, "Hey, Tabby Cat" was just what we were looking for. This is a collection of 4 short books. This collection is perfect for very new readers. It fits all of the criteria above for a very reasonable price.

High Tops and its companion book, Flip Flops, are the brilliant and inciteful workbooks created by therapists with the expertise to back up the exercises. The language and artwork are kid friendly, and the structure mimics the process of healing and catharsis in the therapeutic process. Don't miss this book!

This is the first guide I have ever found aimed at educating teachers about higher functioning autism and asperger's syndrome. Aimed primarily at Junior High, High School, and College teachers. As a parent I found it accurate and full of extremely helpful ideas for educators. I am making sure each of my daughters teachers read it as it sheds light on the education problems that follow my daughter. This book will give educators information they can easily use and incorporate into their classrooms to help these adolescents be successful. Even includes social interaction information. I loved it.

This was the first "adventure travel" type book that I had ever read, and it truly got me hooked on the genre. Before this book, I had thought that adventure travel was backpacking Europe without a copy of Dad's credit card. But these guys take travelling/trekking to a whole new level. The adventures that they get involved in are amazing, like walking a ledge over a 1000-foot high gorge, or running out of food in a world where food is scarce and money is completely worthless. But his ingenuity always impresses, as does his writing style. VERY enjoyable book. I go back to it occasionally and re-read some of the best parts

This is a book I remembered fondly from my childhood, so I purchased a used copy for my two little ones. It is a simple, straightforward tale about a horse, Joey, who works in the city, drawing a vegetable cart for a vegetables salesman. Yet he to longs to live in the country and "kick up his heels." After he is sold to a country farmer he realizes that the city is where he belongs, and lucky for him, he ends up back there. A classic tale about appreciating what you have. My kids love hearing about Joey.

This is more of a supernatural thriller than a si-fi type book...one of the few that I have read by Ms. Norton (&Miller). The story of Susan and Kuydall house is a nifty tale and well worth the read if you can find it. A novel addition to any Norton collection!

Phyllis Barber allows the reader to gain a intimate view of the clash between values of 1950's Las Vegas and her family's vallues of Mormonism. Barber struggles to use her talent of rhythm in a city celebrated for the excesses of entertainment versus her family's definition of proper use of talent within the confines of her Mormon culture. Barber uses the symbolism of marriage to both worlds to best explain the dilemna she is in. To Bobby Jack ( a current boyfriend) marriage meant a wheezing minister, ye
