How to Be a Bride and a Flower Girl, Too
Published in Misc. Supplies by Little Simon (May, 1999)
Authors: Marielle Alison and Liza Woodruff
Average review score:

Fun tool for teaching your flower girls about weddings
Bought a copy for each of my two flower girls, ages 3 and 4. They love them! One mom has to limit the amount of time her daughter plays with them because it's now her favorite toy. The story is adorable and cleverly written. The two girls love "practicing" to be in the wedding and using the items included in the book.

Every bride should buy this book!
This is a wonderful book! The illustrations are endearing and the text, just adorable. The cut-outs and things-to-play-with make this an interactive, engaging book that evey girl who will ever be a bride should get!


I Never Sang for My Father
Published in Hardcover by Random House (July, 1968)
Author: Robert Woodruff, Anderson
Average review score:

A Classic and poignant father/son story
I don't often read plays, preferring to see them, but this one is special. It's beautifully written and many men will recognize the anguish of this father-son relationship. It should be better known than it is.

Powerful
It shows that we don't need all modern devices to make an impression on the world

Average review score:

Bravo, Impressive
This is a masterpiece work that can only be told in Hullinger's unique style. The book is well researched and the stories come alive. The art is somewhat lacking, but does not detract from this wonderful book.

Well written story for children about the life of Woodruff
This is a must read for those interested in the life of Wilford Woodruff. The author has a knack for making his life real. Mrs. Hullinger conducted a great deal of research to produce this wonderful tome.


Phaedrus
Published in Paperback by Hackett Pub Co (March, 1995)
Authors: Plato, Alexander Nehamas, and Paul Woodruff
Average review score:

Division and Gathering: The Cycle Within the Life
'Phaedrus' is the first work ever to provide an explanation to how we organise our ideas, speeches and use our knowledge in a general sense. It explains the basics of an arguing and convincing, within the context of Greek politics and society.

As I said, it's division and gathering that is evident in all of our arguments. We make our claims based upon the similarities and differences in things, and this is the core of argumentation.

In his dialogue style, Plato talks about many other things, that range from what makes a good writing a good one, to the heritance of knowledge. How should knowledge be attained from others? How should we present our knowledge for new generations to understand us? These are some of the questions that come up in Phaedrus.

Plato, one of the clearest writers in philosophy, wrote yet another beautiful work. I've started reading Plato when I was thirteen, and I really enjoy reading his works, which just flow.

I recommend not only this book, but almost any book of Plato's, for all philosophy lovers out there, and all those that would like to make their first attempt in understanding some philosophical issues, which build the base of our living.

Phaedrus
In Phaedrus, Plato records the conversation of love and rhetoric between Socrates and Phaedrus. Socrates uses love as a metaphor for rhetoric by categorizing the differences between love and lust, as well as the differences between a philosopher who pursues divine truth, and a poet who forgoes truth for ostentations. Then Socrates and Phaedrus eventually conclude the requirements for being a dialectician. In the course of defending proper love and truth, Socrates pointes out that beauty and truth are divine. Whoever pursues reality would worship beauty and truth with reverence, and his admirations of divinities yield pleasures. Then in order to receive the blessing from gods, the proper lover and the philosopher must overcome desires with reasoning. Conversely, those commoners who are tempted by earthy imitations of the reality would be trapped by carnal or linguistic pleasures, as the improper lover and the poet, who lack reasoning would drown in the momentary enjoyments of their own wantonness.

Amanda Bean's Amazing Dream: A Mathematical Story (Marilyn Burns Brainy Day Books)
Published in School & Library Binding by Scholastic (August, 1998)
Authors: Cindy Neuschwander, Liza Woodruff, Marilyn Burns, and Liza Woodruff
Average review score:

Amanda Bean's Amazing Dream: A Mathematical Story
This is one of a genre of books wherein the beauty and elegance of a mathematical concept is revealed to the main character in a dream (others notables inlude MATH CURSE by Jon Scieszka and THE NUMBER DEVIL by Hans Magnus Enzensberger). This book is a marvelous way to integrate literature with mathematics and I have found it useful to aid in the introduction of multiplication to students in my 3rd grade.
