I wanted to just "read" the book to the kids. But gosh, I started singing it. And did they love it. I sang and flipped pages as fast as I could. Over and over. I teach preschool and this was America week. This was pretty much the only book about America their "level." It has beautiful "impressionistic" painitings of all sorts of beautiful and significant places in America that you can talk about. And if you are proud and interested, the kids will be too. We sit on a map rug so the kids are getting familiar with all our landmarks. But this book helps learn the song and gets them familiar with our nation. The last page has a picture of the Statue of Liberty in the harbor, "from sea to shining sea." I felt so good to read this to the kids. Please get this to make not only children feel good about where they come from, but also you as well!

The book has good illustrations and it has the song five times. The illustrations go very nicely with the words to the song.

I have looked through this book and I find it to be simply amazing! Dr. Lee goes through everythign in exact detail. He is one of my professors at the University of Miami in the Biology Department. Not only a fantastic author, but a scholar and one of the best teachers!

provides usefull dicotomic guides and a brief description of each specie.

This poem is a fascinating example of the poetic genius of Poe. While it is often thought of as a poem for younger readers, anyone who appreciates the subtle tragedy that is Poe will be deeply moved by this piece - in fact, only a muture reader can fully appreciate all of its' complexity. A must for any fan of Poe, good poetry, American literature, or just plain good writing. Furthermore, you don't have to be a scholar to appreciate this one. Its' appeal is universal, and its' understandability is high. It's just a darn good read.

this is one of poe's greatest poems. there is so much love in his words for his wife (who the poem was intended for but he changed her name to Annabel Lee). A must read!

The author has done a great job of developing the finite element method one step at a time, starting with a review of basic matrix algebra. I was able to self-study this book over the period of four months and I have definitely benefited from the experience. I am much more knowledgable about the tasks I perform in my job as a result of studying this book.

This book is more suitable for self study than most other books on finite elements. I say this after having tried to work with a considerable number of them.

Handbook includes disease states, and categorizes medications of primary choice, and provides secondary alternatives. There are excellent abbreviated text outlining etiology and pathophysiological parameters. As well as step wise flow charts as a decision tool and guideline. The tables for medication dosing and comparability between different classes of drugs are extremely helpful, visually and content wise! In hospital pharmacy practice, this handbook has been my peripheral brain.

very, very thorough book. it covers essentially every common diseaes state and the treatment for each. i highly recommend it.

Archaeogender is probably the most profound study on gender in archaeology available. Every subject discussed is completely researched, yet it is presented in a witty and engaging style. How we are defined by society is something I had not seriously understood until now. This book is profoundly important!

Dr. Gosline wrote the most provocative study of sex and culture that I have ever read. This is an incredible study that has something for everyone. It begins with a detailed evaluation of feminist and queer theory. Then I was led through a series of fascinating case studies. They not only reveal how gender roles are created in every society, but also provide a key to decoding the symbols that define those roles. This is an amazing theoretical work and practical guide to the Natufians of prehistoric Israel, ancient Egypt, India, Nigeria and even China. The research is as flawless as the conclusions are profound!

As an educator, I love having stories to share about those who thought they knew what they were talking about and didn't. Too often we take what others' say too seriously and here are wonderful examples of what people said that weren't so insigtful. The book is a delightful read full of lots of laughs as well as moments of deep contemplation as things hit a little too close to home. Thanks to Ms. Lee for another great book.

Bad Predictions definitely has something for everyone. Even a person who doesn't enjoy books won't be able to put this one down after the first glance. It's divided into sections so everyone can flip to their favorite field first. Such as Society, Fashion, Transportation, Technology etc.

I found it not only fun and entertaining, but an educating and even humbling experience. While some of the bad predictions, are humorous, some such as "you'll never need more than 640k" make you realize how much things can change even in a few years. What's considered impossible today can be second nature tomorrow.

I think I enjoyed predictions from the early 1900's the best. But, I predict everyone will have their own set of favorites. Like Laura's other book, "The Names Familiar", "Bad Predictions" is a perfect ice breaker and conversation maker. It's a great coffee table book, and it's easy to read. Congratulations to Laura Lee for another great winner!

A truly profound book opening up the most basic and essential truths found in the Bible. For all those Christians wondering what they are supposed to be doing while they are waiting to go to heaven, you need this book. It covers such crucial truths as God's plan, Christ's redemption, the Spirit's application, (thus the Triune God), the believers who receive all just mentioned, the church which is the aggregate of those believers, the kingdom (2 chapters on a subject little understood in Christianity) and the ultimate consummation - the New Jerusalem (4 chapters opened up in a deep and profound way worthy of the Bible; I can't actually ever even remember a pastor in the fundamental denomination I grew up in ever mentioning the New Jerusalem. I guess most equated it with heaven. A wrongly though commonly held view which in light of what the Bible is actually teaching more closely resembles mythology). Overall a marvelous book of 149 pages. Get it and read it and enjoy it.

I spend about 10 years in Church in Taipei busy serving the Lord and spiritually totally dried up. But always got revived by Lee's ministry, so I decided to come to USA to be closer to him, and by God's mercy, I got accepted at UTA as a graudate student which was close to Irvin TX, at that time (1983~) Lee usually having two visits per year. This book was out of one of the conferences. My eys was opened to see the overall purpose of God. Before that conference I tough God's purpose was just personal leading, for example, Lord, which school shall I go to? Who shall I marry, ...etc. God's has a determination to lead many sons into glory. This vision has kept my christian life so exciting till now. Does not matter what kind situation I had, have or will have to experinece, God's central thought always controls my daily life. He wants me to share His divine life and all of His riches in Christ to make me one of His many sons into eternal glory!!! Thanks God again for Lee's mininstry and I am looking forward to met him again in the coming kindom and enjoying Christ together with all of the saints in eternity! Praise the Lord who gives gifts to the body of Christ!

This is a great book about two very important figures in the War Between the States. It is a great introduction to this very important campaign. Dr. McWhiney is a wonderful writer and an important scholar.

This book is a wonderful look at the two icons of the Civil War in battle. Magnificent!
