| 151.The Phantom Tollbooth by: Norton Juster October 12, 1988 |

Average Rating:  >>More Details |

|
| This is one of the most enjoyable books I have ever read. I never heard of it growing up, and my parents were diligent in providing us with the classics. Even today most of the customers in my bookstore don't know it exists. This is a crime, because it belongs right up there with Alice in Wonderland and The Wind in the Willows. It's a fantasy about a bored little boy who gets into a magic car and goes through the phantom tollbooth into a land of adventure. He must rescue the princesses Rhyme and ... Read More: |

| 152.Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Book 5) by: J. K. Rowling, Mary GrandPré August 10, 2004 |

| Overall:
-------- 4.5 stars for Harry Potter and the order of the Phoenix. It is dense, quick paced book with a lot of character development and life lessons for the characters in the story. The concept of Death and the implications of Death are driven home for Harry. The book is like "The Empire Strikes Back" for the Star Wars Episode 4 - 6 for the Harry Potter series. Characters: ----------- Harry is clearly a petulent teenager which is a scary thought given his magical abilities. I find Harry to not be very smart ... Read More: |

| This book is a must read for people of all ages. The relationships and insight of an African-American family during the 1960's is exceptional. I highly recommend it for grades 3rd-8th. |

| My daughter received this book for her 3rd birthday, and has loved it from the very start. Infact, since receiving this book she can not wait to go to kindy, which is still another year away. LOL A fun book that not only helps your child with the alphabet, but also gives him/her something to look forward to when the kindergarten days approach. |

| My 3-year-old daughter and I love this book. The illustrations are so fun to discuss and I really like that the story gives an example of making lemonade out of lemons when something less-than-optimal happens. This is a great introductory book when diving in to the Fancy Nancy collection. |

| Once again, Amazon was able to recommend a book that my son loved. I used to say that I had a son that didn't enjoy reading, but I feel like I can't say that anymore. He loved this story and kept reading parts out loud to the rest of the family. We all ended up reading and enjoying it. The main character is very easy to relate to and the author did an amazing job getting the reader to understand the character's problems and emotions. This book is a must read for all kids!! |

| In my work I'm at Walt Disney World every week, and the more I research it the more impressed I am. It is a place of boundless imagination. After Walt Disney's original vision, the bulk of the creative work has been in the capable hands of the Disney Imagineers. This book profiles 30 of these Disney artists and engineers.
Although you could argue about the list (I'd love to see Mary Blair, but I guess her role wasn't really as an Imagineer) you can't argue with the depth of the research. Within each profile, Kurtti has gathered not only anecdotes, reminiscences ... Read More: |

| I wasn't sure what exactly to expect from this book. When I got it and started looking at the page after page of amazing documented discriptions of anything and everything you would see in these movies I was so pleased with my purchase. The only thing I noticed was the emphisis on Episodes 1-3 and remaining episodes were all lumped together in a quick glance almost. The book is amazing non the less and I am more then pleased with it, and can't wait to give it to my significant other for his birthday. |

| I came across this book when my wife found it on the shelf in a local bookshop.
She read it and encouraged our son to stop dancing around the bookstands and concentrate and read it. Although he prefers video games he loved it. When I met up with them, he was so enthusiastic that he persuaded me to read it. My daughter then loved it when she had stopped looking at 'her favourite books' in the store. We all appreciated the simple humour of the book and the appreciation of the pigeon's point of view - which was a learning ... Read More: |
