My 4 year old twins received this book as a gift. It is so wonderful. We have already read through it twice!!! They have learned so much and look forward to reading it everynight. The games, songs, questions are all very fun for them. They also say the verse with me.

Compiled and edited by author and columnist Mary Manz Simon, The Young Learner's Bible Storybook is a delightful and memorable collection of 52 stories enhanced with more than one hundred activities to help teach Bible's stories to young Christians. Color illustrations are combined with a humble and modest tone of writing that is deeply reverent of God. Thought-provoking discussion questions, and simplified versions of Bible stories mark The Young Learner's Bible Storybook as an excellent introduction for young readers ages 3 to 7.

Joel Edler and Dave Harper's 2003 Us Coin Digest, in contrast, presents a spiral-bound guide to average retail prices from market experts: quite a different market. Small black and white photos of the coins accompany details on their collectability.

50 Christmas Carols for All Harps by Sylvia Woods.

This is one of the first books I purchased, of the many books by Sylvia Woods, and it is a constant favorite. Every carol I have ever sung is in this book . All of the pieces are beautifully arranged and playable by everyone because there is both an easy and an advanced arrangement. Friends and I play these two versions as duets during the Christmas season. This book is a must for all harp players and will bring you and your listeners a lot of JOY!

I always find the ACCESS Guides to be the best travel guides overall, and look for them whenever I am about to travel to a new location. So far, I have used their guides to Alb/SantaFe/Taos, Seattle, Montreal/Quebec City, Phoenix, San Francisco, Hawaii, San Diego, and London.

I like their format - they are organized by neighborhoods, so you don't have to seach around through the book all day; and they have an empasis on restaurants and shopping, which I find the other guides don't give enough info on and which are my FAVORITE activities when travelling. Also their print is large, clear, and color coded, which also makes it easy to find what you want (restaurants in one color, shopping in another, tourist sites in another).

It's the best guide to carry around each day while travelling.

In your standard American History textbook there might be some mention that the first person killed in the American Revolution during the Boston Massacre was Crispus Attucks, an African-American. However, that is likely the only mention of what African Americans did during the Revolutionary War beyond the fact that most of them were slaves. In this informative volume, Judith E. Harper relates over a dozen stories of patriotic actions by other African Americans during that time. These include Prince Whipple, a slave who helped row Washington's army across the Delaware River; Jenny Slew a free African American who was seized and made a slave but regained her freedom in court; Minuteman Salem Poor (honored with a U.S. stamp in 1975); James Armistead, sent by the Marquis de Lafayette to spy on Lord Cornwallis; and James Forten, who invented a new way to raise sails on ship.

I thought I was fairly well informed about people of note during the Revolutionary War period, but Harper goes well beyond Crispus Attucks and Phyllis Wheatley. I would think that young students, whatever part of the world their ancestors came from to reach America, would be impressed with the achievements by the people mentioned in this book. As with all of the volumes in the Journey to Freedom series, "African Americans and the Revolutionary War" is illustrated with historical paintings and etchings, many of which actually show the people Harper is writing about, which is pretty impressive when you think about it. For another volume in this series that covers this same time period check out the book on Benjamin Banneker.

This well written book is must for counselors working with students who have special needs. It gives sound practical insights on to develop a plan that works for these students. Thumb ups!

This is an excellent adventure story set in the hidden and occasionally dangerous woods of the Blue Ridge mountains. When it becomes a matter of life and death, two teenage boys learn that friends share much more than just the place where they live.

I took a course in Chinese medicine and read many books written on the subject, however, until I came accross with this book, all the abstract concepts of Chinese medicine did not really sink in. Harper's book is well written, very easy to understand and presents a great deal of information. I strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning the basics of Chinese medicine as well as some other natural healing techniques. Her way of writing is healing.

The photographic material, sideboxes and quotes alone are enough to make this book a 5 star rating; the actual book itself is revealing, involved but does not seem to dwell on individual topics for too long, leaving you feeling you "vaguely read something about that". The material is interesting, there could just have been a bit more of it.

However it offers a very interesting perspective, and the stories and quotes are very dramatic. It's a book you'll keep picking up, and whilst it seeks the truth about Bomber Command, it shows great respect for the men and women who's lives were given and lost in it's operation.

Couple this game with an online WWII simulation like iMagic Online's Warbirds, and it will give you a new insight into the aerial combat.

Practical technology and formulation. It assist me on my work.
