Dedicated to his late fiance, Billy gives us a glimpse of the friendship he had with her, as well as the friendship he received from others as he grew to cope with losing her. From his loss come words and illustrations which go straight to the reader's heart of what it means to be a friend. In the 60 seconds it takes to read it, you'll have in your mind your friends who have been there for you...who have been drastic, gymnastic, but most of all, elastic!

Allowing for an easy read and a quick little smile, this brief book holds common ground for all ages. By a friend being mathematical, "he should calculate the need, deep in your heart." Although simplistic, this little line embodies the truth of what a friendship should really be like. As a whole, I find the straight forward pleasantness to be worth trying.

This book was exactly that..fun! I am buying another copy to give as a graduation gift to my friend who wants nothing more than to travel. It is very informative and not boring like many too-many-details-at-once travel books. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for some different, fun ideas.

A fun and creative approach to travel writing. Lots of imaginative suggestions. Great organization. Highly useful for advance planning and when on the go.

My mother, in my humble opinion, does an incredible job of writing horticultural books. If you are planning to plant a garden, big or small, this book will help you do it. Also, be sure to check out my mother's first book, Small Gardens: Inspired Plantings For Diminutive Spaces ... Oh, yeah, and I love you, Mom! xoxo Later all.

This book has a terrific story that will transform the reader into this great fanatsy land. The illustrations are top notch, bringing the whales to life. This is a must have book for all little tots. Jennifer O'Connell could be rated among the best of Children's books illustrators. This book has both an excellant story and great pictures.

I bought this book several years ago and placed it on a shelf. What a mistake! Out of all my garden reference books, this is the one I now go to first. It is laid out very well. Each plant has a description of foliage, stem, flowers, fruit. Then hardiness, soil req., pruning, sun/shade, Problems, propagation. There are varities of interest and "stick drawings" of the eventual shape along with sizing at 5, 10 & 20 years. There are LOTS of great photos. There is even a great reference section in the back on selecting plants. The only negative is the book doesn't have conifers. I hope the author writes more books!

I am a beginner gardener and this has been my bible! The best part- Color photos of every tree and shrub. Complete descriptions, uses, soil requirements, pruning, everything you need to know. I lost it once and panicked! Luckily it was returned.

Having been a serious Garfield fan from the day I could read, this is by far the best Garfield book. Watching him "grow" from the dawn of time (when chickens had teeth) to a "futuristic" Garfield, is fantastic. He even tries his paws at sleuthing. A definite must read for the Garfield fan.
