We luv #2
It was a good book. Our whole family enjoyed reading the book. Garfield and Garfield's Pet Force are two favorite series of mine.

These books are great...
These books are defintly the best! I have read the first to and am waiting for the 3rd and 4th to come in. The first isn't the best-don't get me wrong-but it is basically just a set up for the rest of the series. Yes, i still like this one, but i think the second one is better. The series is funny even if you aren't a big fan of Garfield. Even if you've only read Garfield once and met the characters, you will get a big laugh out of this comedy/sci fi/fantasy book...it is great...

a great book
This is one of the best Garfield books ever. It has a lot of action and it is very funny as well. I'm waiting for the next book in the series to come out. I really liked all of the characters in this book. I think it's the start of a very good series of books.

Pie Rats Revenge
I liked this book by how good the pictures were drawn and the way the characters were made. There are Garfield and his friends that become pet force in a parallel universe. This book has a lot of action and adventure. There is someone evil for Pet Force to battle. This book is also very funny. If you think the Garfield comic strips are funny you will really like this book.

Excellent Sequel
This book was terrific because it started when the 1st book left off. Also, it has Pie-Rat take control over Garzooka. Since that happened the other members had to really work hard to beat Pie-Rat's spell. I would recommend this book to people over 6 because it's easy to understand and its funny.

it was a great book
this book was very exiting and it was funny to and hey person from Tennesse what's up with that review you must be in a really stupid club to write something like that.

Very informative
If it's details about each individual Orange Island you want, this book is great. It has a map of the Orange Islands, trivia about most Pokemon and the characters, a chapter on life lessons kids can get from Pokemon, and lots more. The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the way this book constantly insults my favorite characters, Team Rocket. It's always saying their plans are dumb, they're stupid, lame, etc. I resent that. But at least they give alot of info about them. They even have a great deal about Cassidy and Butch, who are-unfortunately-often ignored. So even if you're a huge Team Rocket fan, I still recommend this book. It focuses on the show and not the cards or games, but if you're into the show, it's got a lot you'd like to know.

What?! $10 and nothing on AAML?!
I bought this book and read through it, and noticed a couple of errors. For one thing, Misty is NOT after Ash because of her (busted) bike. EVERYBODY knows why she's following Ash - she's in love with him! I'll bet even Cranky Kong knows!

And gimmie a break. Brock DID leave the show, but not forever. He came back to the show in "A Tent Situation".

How come, on the back cover, it says it has information on "Team Rocket & the Bad Guys"? Team Rocket IS the bad guys, so how can they be listing "Team Rocket & the Bad Guys" when the only other bad guy we know is Gary the Big Loser?

I'd hardly call this "For Serious Fans Only" if it doesn't mention the fact that Misty loves Ash and vice-versa. There's no reference of Rocketshippy or Neoshippy either! C'mon, Ash and Misty ARE in love, because otherwise, there'd be no point for their romance in the hentai doujinshi. Oops, I've said too much already.

Note to AAML fans: For those of you who want to get an official picture of Ash and Misty sharing a romantic kiss, go to http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1134703750

How to draw Fantasy Creatures by Michael Teitelbaum
This is a very good book for the 12-14 year old age group. The things they like to draw are in this book, drawn in a manner that gives young people confidence. My students love to try each page.

A great book for Turok fans
Ok, I read one and two. One I would say is alittle better than two. But, two is still good. The book goes in depth, and we get to get a closer look at Turok. The book is EXTREMLY easy to follow. Not, that I am saying it is simplist, I am sixteen and enjoyed it. It is a fun and easy to follow book series. It had just about all of the villians from the game in it. But, the raptor ( my fav ) was only in one and two, only twice, and it did not even describe them very much. But, all in all, an ok book, you will enjoy the book much more after you have betten the game. What was weird was when I got bored I actually sat down and read the book, instead of sitting down and blowing my brains out!(and blowing some brains out, if you know what I mean) So, if you love Turok, and come on, 3 bucks! That is the cheapest I have ever seen a book. The book is best described as a big, 3 dollar comic book.

TUROK IS AWSEOME
Turok is a great book for people who like adventure and actionbook once you start readin you cant stop. but some parts are bloodythough. I recomend this book for 8-10 year olds i also like that there is a bunch of books in the serries.

Arrival, full of Errors
Arrival is wonderful novel for newcomers to Smallville, but if you are a large fan like I am, it is easy to see the faults.

1. Whitney Ellsworth? All the other books refer to Whitney as a Fordman like they should.
2. Lionel takes Lex back to the helicopter? No way. Lionel doesn't want to touch Lex. He is terrified by the fact that he has lost all his hair. If you've seen lineage, Episode 7 Season 2, you'll see that Lionel runs for help, and Johnathan rescues Lex.
3.Jonathan goes into town to make a fake birth certificate? Well, partly true, but Johnathan actually goes to lionel, and he arranges the ID, Birth Certificate and Adoption papers, as a thankyou for helping Lex.

Otherwise, little bits and pieces are added into the original, pilot episode Story.

I liked the book, but these little mistakes kinda made me laugh and hope that the other books know their Smallville before they bother writing a novel for the whole world to see

In there Minds
This is basicly a book that is about the Pilot episoed for the SMALLVILLE series*Sesaon One*.If you wish to know what the characters where thinking about at certient moments and littel aded information.Then get the book.Other wise if that kind of thing bores you.Don't bother.

beautifully written story
this book gives us a better than average story on superman's early life. it starts with the meter shower that brought him to earth and the devastating affects it had on the town and citizens of smallville. then it jumps to his 15th year where he
is a teenager with extraordinary abilities that he cannot figure
out because his adopted family has left him in the dark. ...teenagers do kiss, use profanity and a lot worse. the use of profanity is very slight
and definitely not worth mentioning. ...i think that most people would enjoy it ... if you did not see the
first episode this will more than bring you up to date.

Why can't you find any Pet Force books after the 4th?
I am a huge Garfield fan and the Pet Force series is by far one of my favorite, but I think that they stopped making them because try as I may I can't find them anywhere on the net. I do however remember them talking about making a 5th one back around the time they first came out but never heard anything other than talk until I read the comments of a fellow reviewer implying that he or she had a copy of the 5th Pet Force book "Attack of the Lethal Lizards." I just would like any help that I can get on how to get a copy of the 5th Pet Force book also. If anyone out there has any information on that, wants to sell their copy of "Attack of the Lethal Lizards", or has any info whatsoever about the Pet Force series, please let me know. My e-mail is jackmancini@e-garfield.com Thank you for your help.

P.S. Yes, Garfield's Pet Force is a terrific series in my opinion, whether you're young or old...as long as you enjoy liesurely reading. I highly recommend the series. That's why I'm willing to go through this much trouble just to find one mesely installment in the series and any other info I can get.

This book ROCKS!!!!
Hey you guys. I highly suggest you read this and all the other Pet Force books. It's a really killer series, I'm not kidding you. It may look kinda stupid, but believe me, it's not. Pet Force is the best book series I have EVER read, I like it more than Harry Potter and the Unicorns of Balinor combined! I've read a LOT of books in my life and yet I still keep coming back to this wonderful book series. It may seem kind of weird having this from a 14 year old, but I don't care! I love it anyway! So check this and all the other Pet Force books, I promise, it'll be worth the money, maybe more!

Not for Children
We don't need to see the Little Mermaid's nipples.
(I can never understand why the people who cry out that the nudity is "JUST art!" don't notice that it is never underdressed males, but little girls that we have to look at.)

Amazon.com rates this book for ages 4 - 8, but the text is difficult and violent, and the admittedly lovely art is appropriate for graphic novels in the _Sandman_ vein, not for kids.

Yes, it is a lovely story, yes, it was dark to begin with, and no it is not a children's book.

Good translation, pretty (aside from the gratuitousness) illustrations earn 2 stars.

Most reviews here are NOT about this book!
Sulamith Wulfing's art is gorgeous! Unfortunately, most of the reviews I see here are NOT for her book! They are reviews of the version Rachel Isadora illustrated (see the "nipples" and violence comments); or even for Disney's Little Golden Book adapted from the cartoon. I don't understand why reviews for other versions are displayed here; it's very misleading! If you like Sulamith Wulfing's art, you'll probably like this book.

The best rendering of this story I have ever seen
The Little Mermaid. Illustrated by Sulamith Wulfing; text by Hans Christian Andersen. Translated from the German by Petra Michel.

Sulamith Wulfing is a fantastic artist whose work has been sold as books of plates, calendars, and even decks of cards. This book is special because it is one of the few times that her works illustrate a story. Each page has black and white line drawings and there are ten full page color plates. The color plates are the type of work for which the artist is most known and the ten in this book have been reprinted in her calendars and other collected works. The color is vibrant and the themes of each are sublime. The cover illustration is also the last illustration in the text and shows the mermaid transformed into The Immortal Soul.

An epilog called "The Sacrifice" written by the artist's son, Otto Schulze, states that a new translation of Andersen's story was used and that "parts of the story have been summarized." While staying true to Andersen's original plot, incidents and characters have been left out and parts of the story have been changed. These changes raise the story above being a children's fairy tale and highlight its allegorical theme about the role of love in the quest for immortality. The modified text and the mystical art go together excellently to make this the best rendering of this story I have ever seen. Originally published in German in 1953, this work is as vibrant today as when it was first conceived 50 years ago.

At the end of the book is a brief one page biography of the author with an early photograph of her and a self portrait painted in 1953.
