| I liked this book alot. I can't really describe it that well without giving it away but it's very good. It's well written and I like the approach John Boyne used on the subject.
This book is also being turned into a movie coming out in the US in November 2008. So if you like reading books and then watching the movie that goes with it.... But very powerful and just very good. PS, its also sad |

| We have now read through this Bible 5 times with my now 6 year old son. We gave it to him when he was 4, and he has asked--more like begged--to read a story from it each and every night since then.
This is the most loving, gently written children's story book Bible that I have ever come across. They are all written in a way that a child can relate to and understand. And I love that at the end it really does bring it back around to Christ's love for us. Even as an adult, there have been many ... Read More: |

| As we enter into another heated political season, it is important to remember our history, to recall where we came from and to reflect on the sacrifices our forefathers made in order for us to sling mud at one another. Mrs. Cheney's new book, "We the People, The Story of our Constitution" gives us the opportunity to explain to our children and refresh our memories on how special our nation is and respect the determination of Washington, Madison and Franklin.
Beautifully written and illustrated ... Read More: |

This story chronicles Obama's life as he leads up to running for President. The historical nature of the story is intriguing. They used to call him Barry until he embraced his father and his name Barack. As his mother taught him proper English, Godly virtues, and love of family his sense of adventure took hold. Education was his foothold and studying was his pastime. Barack felt the urgent ... Read More: |

| In an effort to work my way through Newbury winner/honor books, I picked up the Wednesday Wars - and what a treat this turned out to be!
Holling Hoodhood reminded me of a combination of Holden Caulfield, Scout Finch, and Anne Shirley. There were times when I laughed out loud, and other times when I felt tears running down my face. What a wonderful, unique, yet totally believable character. Never again will I take for granted a cream puff. Supporting characters, particularly Mrs. Baker, are deep and rich, and the ...

| The Little House series is one of my all time favorites, my absolute favorite of the whole series is Little House in the Big Woods. The descriptions of everything from the foods they prepared, what people wore and how they entertained themselves. Watching Laura grow up through the series was a real treat and this would be a great series for any girl around the age of 10 who can grow with the series. |
