Published in Paperback by Orchard Books (March, 2000)
Authors: Robert D. San Souci, Gennady Spirin, Gennadii Spirin, and Aulnoy Chatte Blanche
Average review score:

Wonderful story,beautifully illustrated
The young prince must search for what his father requests. He immediately finds a magical castle instead, and by trusting the White Cat he finds all he needs. In between there are some great adventures, fanciful and courageous. My daughter enjoys this book and we've read it many times.

One of my favorite all-time children's books
The illustrations in this beautiful book are worth getting it for alone. But when you add to this an exciting and interesting story - one that I never tire of reading and my children never tire of hearing - this book is an all-around winner. I highly recommend this book as a mother and a teacher.


White Crow

Average review score:

White Crow
I found White Crow to have a wonderful message for adults and children...learn to see and hear with your heart. The illustrations are beautiful and the writing is sweet but not condescending. I would recommend it to parents and teachers who want an magical story that demonstrates listening to, and trusting one's intuition and feelings.

An imaginative and entertaining picture book story
White Crow is an imaginative and entertaining picture book story of a young Native American boy named Little Buffalo and his white dog, Nopad, who embark on a journey in search of the mysterious white crow and its secrets. An enthralling story with abstract yet memorable color artwork, White Crow is a recommended addition to school and community library picture book collections.


White Dove
Published in Mass Market Paperback by Leisure Books (July, 2001)
Author: Susan Edwards
Average review score:

Awesome author!
Set in 1859, Nebraska Territory. The story followed Jeremy Jones and White Dove. Jeremy had been with the Lakota, Sioux for three years now. That was how long his sister, Jessie, had been married to the chief, White Wolf (White Dove's brother). That was also how long Jeremy had been trying to impress White Dove, in hope she would marry him. She was a s skilled as any male warrior and expected her mate to treat her with respect. She had no wish of her future husband stopping her from hunting and such. Jeremy slowly earned the respect of the tribe. His love of children showed. He even raised two bear cubs. (You'll have to read the book to find out how and why.)

Greed, jealousy, and betrayal showed up in the form of Waho, a Sioux from the Miniconjou branch. He cared nothing for White Dove, but vowed to marry her for the power of her family. He planned to be chief someday. The more Jeremy proved himself to White Dove and the tribe, Waho's jealousy and greed grew.

***** I found this to be an awesome read and highly recommend it to everyone! This series ROCKS! *****

Great Book!!!
I have read all of Susan Edwards books, and if you loved them all, White Dove isn't going to disappoint. Even though this is the final book in the series of the children of Golden Eagle and White Wind, this book ties all the ends together nicely. I stayed up all night reading the book, laughing, crying and smiling. One thing is for sure, have a box of kleenex nearby while reading!!!


White Dreams
Published in Mass Market Paperback by Leisure Books (November, 2000)
Author: Susan Edwards
Average review score:

Book 5 in the series. Awesome author!
Begins in the Nebraska Territory of 1856. Star Dreamer has the Sight, like her grandmother before her. She fears her own daughter, Morning Moon, has it as well. Star Dreamer considers the Sight a curse, especially when she foresees her husband die and could not save him. In hopes of hiding her daughter from the Spirits in a crowded place, she goes with Colonel Grady O'Brien (Emma's father in the last book) to St. Louis to look after Renny. Star Dreamer faces many prejudices and makes a friend in a free slave named Hattie.

Grady and Renny slowly must build trust between themselves. Grady is grateful for Star's company. Renny had spent much time with the Sioux and considered Morning Moon her sister. An attraction between Grady and Star begins but both fear of the consequences of falling in love. In addition, there is a ring of men kidnaping and selling free slaves. The leader is known only as The Dragon. The Dragon wants Hattie and Star to be next on his growing list.

*** Book five in the "WHITE" series! Author, Susan Edwards, still has the talent of hooking her readers in the first paragraph and selfishly holding onto them until the last page has been turned! Each book in the "WHITE" series is a story in itself; however, seeing familiar characters makes the stories seem much more realistic! Highly recommended reading! ***

White Dynamite and Curly Kidd
This book is AWESOME. Written with an authentic voice of the rodeo cowboy, yet delightful lyrics, rhythm and a surprise ending will enchant all readers.

Exciting and surprising!!!
White Dynamite and Curly Kid is a book that is as much fun to read as it is to listen to! The story is terrific, full of action and suspense as Curly Kid watches cowboys ride a fearsome bull known as White Dynamite! The ending is a surprise to all, as the reader learns that things aren't always as they seem.Zinthia Halaychik, Astatula, Florida

White Fire
Published in Hardcover by Images from the Past (July, 2000)
Author: Stuart Murray
Average review score:

Everything I look for in a novel
White Fire has everything I look for in a novel--engrossing plot, characters that come alive, and a vividly drawn setting that allows me to escape for a few hours while learning something new. I'm looking forward to reading more books by Stuart Murray.

Stirring, highly recommended historical action-adventure.
Author, journalist, and editor Stuart Murray has written a superbly crafted historical novel capturing the yesteryear feel of 1828 in southern Africa. Dirk Arendt is guiding an archaeological expedition toward a lost city near Zululand. One of the part is an agent for a ruthless secret brotherhood in search of an ancient amulet, thought to be in the hands of Shaka, founder and lord of the newly unified Zulu nation. Dirk's expedition arrives just as rebels are about to overthrow Shaka, and the rebels also desire to posses the Amulet of White Fire. Meanwhile to the southwest, the first Cape Colony Dutch pioneers have launched a journey northward into the wilderness in search of the Promised Land. These independent minded Boers include Dirk's own parents and Rachel Drente. These "voortrekkers" are marching straight into the turmoil and civil war between Zulu regiments and the conspirators who are seeking to overthrow Shaka and seize the amulet. White Fire is a stirring, very highly recommended, action-adventure oriented historical novel which is enhanced for the readers pleasure with a meticulous attention to accurate detail throughout.


White Fire: A Portrait of Women Spiritual Leaders in America
Published in Hardcover by Skylight Paths Pub (October, 2002)
Authors: Malka Drucker and Gay Block
Average review score:

surprising and inspiring
Many of my friends have read and suggested this books because of its great expressions of faith and how women are changing the face of religious leadership. They represent a new way of seeing God and a new community of leadership. Never before have so many women served the holy with earthly authority; it's a new paradigm and they might change the destructive and violent energy so prevalent in our time.

Authentic, exciting, substantial, celebratory
Freud asked what women really want. Rabbi Malka Drucker asks what both women and men want and need, spiritually, today. The answer is individual expression within a community, a fellowship, that supports each of us to bring goodness (divinity, God) into the world. The book functions as biography, history, and inspiration all at once, as it introduces the remarkable women--some widely known (Marianne Williamson, Dr. Elaine Pagels), some locally known (Dr. Nahid Angha, Rebbetzin Esther Jungreis)- whose stories it tells. I disagree with "Publishers Weekly" reviewer that Rabbi Drucker's personal comments are intrusive. To the contrary, they enliven and bring immediacy to the spiritual biographies she presents and encourage the reader to bring his or her own experience to meeting these leaders. Though the book could be used for study or the classroom, its personal approach is anything but "textbookish." It's substantial, accessible, authentic, exciting and celebratory. A must-read if you are investigating or committed to matters of the spirit.


The White Guns
Published in Hardcover by Heinemann (September, 1989)
Author: Douglas Reeman
Average review score:

Transition from hot to cold war.
The White Guns is a story of officers and men of the Royal Navy at the end of World War II in Europe and how they deal with people who the day before were deepest enemies and now are a mass of destitute survivors. It is a story of men in transition and how they deal with the changes they face. Some adjust quite well, others are still fighting the war. It is a view of Germany, at the end of World War II that many Americans never saw; bombed out streets, mothers and wives huddled at the train station waiting for trains coming in from the East that might have a few survivors from the Eastern Front aboard. Faded photos on a notice board in the station and pleas for information. It is a strange world for the men of the Royal Navy assigned to Northern Germany. There is humor, tragedy and drama; but there is also hope for the survivors on both sides of the lines of World War II. A book well worth reading. This review is based on the book of the same name.

A fitting story to close out the sea battles of WWII
I am an avid fan of Reeman's WWII novels dealing with the heroics of British seamen in sea battles. However, the sea action, althought exciting and easy to read, usually dominates his books with too little development of his characters. In this book, which begins with the end of WWII, the guns have stopped firing. As Fraulein Geghin, a German civilian, says to her lover, British naval officer Lt. Marriott, the protagonist in this book, when a British vessel passes them: "Look at her guns. All white...the snow. They do not look so dangerous any more. He replied. "I know." This book is about the uneasy calm after the war as the conquering naval heroes now must confront the problems of a vanquished foe. Reeman intertwines several interesting personal stories-including a tender love story about Geghin and Marriott, blackmarket activities, a confrontation between the British and the Russians about dealing with the Germans, several close calls at sea-all against the backdrop of clearing up the wrecked vessels in an around the German port of Kiel. The cessation of hostilities allows Reeman room to dwell upon and develop his characters and make them and their individual stories interesting. Unlike the usual battle dominated books by Reeman, this one presents a literary slice of what it must have really been like in the first days after the war ended when the victors met their defeated enemy on the latter's soil.


White Hole in Time: Our Future Evolution and the Meaning of Now
Published in Hardcover by HarperCollins (May, 1992)
Author: Peter Russell
Average review score:

Great book, now revised and renamed to "Waking up in time"
This is a great work that aims to break modern man out of his hypnotic trances. Peter gives us a view that transcends our everyday triviality and exposes society for what it really is. This is a fairly comprehensive work especially considering it's only 230 pages. I would put this on my top 10 list and recommend it highly.

probabilities vs prophecies
mr. russell comes up with an academic yet understandable examination of earth's evolution, the rate of evolution on earth(on different levels) and a probable course of evolution.

Here is a satisfying, intellectual exploration of what is to come to pass for human kind's future.

optimistic.

and surprisingly, also quite spiritually satisfying to me.
