This book encompasses a a variety of short attention-grabbing and motivating short coming of age stories. The book is slpit up into 4 categories each of which contain about 4-5 stories. Those include "Fitting In" , "Family Matters", "Affairs of The Heart", and "Crisis." My personal favorite has to be A Bag of Oranges. It is worth it just to buy the book for that story! The book not only includes this but 20 more coming of age short stories. This book really stands out from the rest! Armed with this knowledge, I would say making the decision to buy this book is a no-brainer. Buy the book and an extra copy to give to a friend! That friend will thank you!

Compiled and analyzed by Mormon scholar Gary James Bergera (Director, Smith-Pettit Foundation, Salt Lake City, Utah), Conflict In The Quorum: Orson Pratt, Brigham Young, Joseph Smith is a meticulously researched, carefully written documentation of the manifold disagreements between various strong-willed and devout leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, (popularly known as the "Mormons") during its first turbulent years of existence. Looking at how conflicts between diverse leaders had significant and enduring effects upon LDS doctrine, policy, and organizational structure, Conflict In The Quorum is an impressive body of scholarship which presents an astutely written and insightful account that can be read with considerable interest by both academic scholars and non-specialist general readers alike.

The recent publication date of this book allows for greater understanding for today's youth. Being part of a summer school class, I was among the first people in my high school to evaluate the book for the regular school year. Key concepts in this book are efficiently shown, and all the basic principles of economics (supply & demand, business types) are outlined very nicely. Although our school did not partake in it, the book also comes with a set of interactive CD's, allowing the instructor to visually show the effects of economics on daily life. There are an amazing number of brightly-colored graphs and pictures to demonstrate the book's main points. This text was extremely successful in helping me gain an appreciation for the backbone of our nation's economic standing.

This short story - Foghorn - made Bradbury my favourite author. The plot may seem really simple but Bradbury manages to express the feeling of loneliness so deeply that it makes me cry every time i read it.

Me sorprende que otros lectores no encuentren a este libro al mismo nivel que el numero 2 o al 4. En mi opinion el mayor exito de Dever es la densidad del entorno y como te envuelve en el. Cosa que para mi consigue en este y en los otros dos mencionados.

This book is exciting and heartwarming that describes the story of a young girls experience in a horrible time of our history. The sacrifies and she had to endure without knowing if she was going to live or die and to sustain harsh treatment on a daily basis, suffering from medical complications and lack of food. This book is a true testiment of what war is and the many lives that our destroyed because of hatered and discrimination. A great book for the young and old.

Dr. Zustiak does an excellent job in examining the sociological traits of the Gen X crowd. The book is written from the perspective of reaching the needs of Gen X with the Christian message and world view. However,one need not be a Christian to appreciate the information shared on the social and personal needs of Gen X. A fine study.

I was aloft one day in the park while a naked indian rubbed my inner thighs as i began to recite a poem by Wilfred Owens. The naked indian or Mr. Anthony as i called him when i was younger, began to cry un controllably as i read verse after verse. I removed my shoes and started to clobber Mr. Anthony to death with them. He died a noble death fightin for his country and making butterscotch with only his short and curlies and left nipple. The End. I love you.
