| Hi,
I just read this book and thought it should get 4 stars. There were a lot of mysterious events. The mysterious events were like when Hannah got transported into the past. It is an incredible book. This Jewish tale tells the horrifying tale of the Nazis. |

| This fifth book in the Little House series relates Laura's memories as a young teenage girl, as her family is on the move yet again: from Plum Creek to Silver Lake and town yet to be built. Eager to find "the real west" Laura struggles with the chores of a prairie woman while inside she longs to rush headlong into the new landscape with childlike enthusiasm. Pa's cheerful fiddle music and Ma's quiet maternal authority provide a warm, stable foundation for family life--whether in the big woods, in a bustling town or on the ... Read More: |

| 95.Fallen Angels by: Walter Dean Myers May 01, 2008 |

|
| I was assigned to read this in college as an example of how "young adult" fiction is difficult to define. Fallen Angels definitely defies labeling, and adroitly demonstrates that young adult fiction can be every bit as weighty as adult fiction.
The book reminded me of Richard Price's "Clockers," in that it was a very unglamorous look at the harshly real life of a young black American trying to make his way through a dangerous world. The characters in this book are much more fully fleshed out than they would be in an after school ... Read More: |

| 96.On the Banks of Plum Creek (Little House) by: Laura Ingalls Wilder January 02, 2007 |

| I purchased this for my 8 year old daughter as a birthday gift per her repeated requests. She already had Farmer Boy, and chose this as her next Little House CD. She and her 12 year old sister both love these. We've read Little House books as a family, but now they can listen over and over.
This is a good CD. Cherry Jones' performance is excellent, and the fiddle music adds a wonderful touch for those who wish they could have heard Pa's fiddle. As for the story, who doesn't like Laura Ingalls Wilder's classic stories of pioneer life in America? ... Read More: |

| 98.Ancient Egypt (Eyewitness Books) by: George Hart August 04, 1990 |

| Average Rating: >>More Details |
 |
|
| This is another in the series of books published under the "Eyewitness Books" imprimatur. These are designed for younger readers, to introduce them to important subjects. The focus here? Ancient Egypt.
To understand human history, a sense of Egypt's role is critical, just as the study of Greece and Rome. This book does a nice job for its audience; those who want in depth discussion ought to look elsewhere. The volume begins with a brief history of Egypt and notes the role of the Pharaohs (including an enumeration of some of the more important/renowned (e.g., Akhenaton, ... Read More: |

| I am a mother of four children under 14, and always looking for well written historical fiction for my boys. My 10 year old needs the action in a book to start pretty quickly, or he will lose interest. I just finished reading this today, and I can't wait for him to read it. Smith is able to take a fairly complex subject, and make it interesting, and understandable, while teaching the reader a piece of the history of Burma during WWII. By the middle of this book, I could not put it down, I was so anxious to discover the outcome of Nick Freestone's fate. Fantastic! |
