Our 11 month old loves this book. The bold colors and rhythmic text are appealing both to her and to her parents! We read to her several times a day, so it's great to find a book that we can stand to read over and over again...

My daughter loves this book! The bright colors and animals keep her attention! Excellent for infants and toddlers!

We purchased this book a week before moving our boys (ages 2 and 3) from a small family day care to a large childcare center. It gave us a way to start our dicsussion about what the new childcare would be like. Now we use it to talk about their days ("Mommy, we did that today!"). Great pictures!

We've borrowed this book from the library, twice, and are now purchasing it. My son, 2, who's been in family day care since he was 1, loves the book and has chosen his favorite kids out of it. "He'd be fun to play with." He loves the rhyming text, also. The book might, however, be more properly entitled, Busy at Preschool Head to Toe as most of the kids pictured are preschool age rather than infants or toddlers, who are more typically seen in day care. Excellent book to show him what he can look forward to in preschool, including the greater number of children and activities, and the regular schedule. I also appreciate that kids of many ethnic backrounds are pictured.

I am a woman golfer who is always looking for little golf gifts for my friends. This calendar keeps giving all year long. My friends love this. It is the best calendar for golfers on the market.

This is the best golf calendar on the market as it is all instruction with a golf tip every day. As an avid golfer, I love it.

This is a great calendar that you can re-use every year--I hang it right next to my current year calendar so I won't have to re-write all those birthdays, anniversaries, etc. each time I get a new calendar. I even used my electronic labelmaker for the entries so they look nice and neat. A must have if you are an organization freak like me!

Mary Engelbreit is the Frank Capra of illustrators. Her veiw of life and bits of wisdom offer a bright spot of hope in any gloomy day and a bright new day tomorrow!

Determined to lose weight, I bought this book when I was 21, and I gave the program 30 days. I noticed results within 2-3 weeks and by the end of the summer, I had dropped 25 lbs and two waist sizes. It's a great program that's easy to commit to and easy to work into your hectic schedule. The book is well illustrated and easy to follow. I've misplaced my book over the years and now I'm buying it again to get back on the program. I strongly recommend it. It gave me the confidence to begin an exercise program and stick to it.

I love this book. It starts you out with simple exercises and when your finished with the program you can easily move on to the tapes. I recommend this book for women of all ages. I'm 50.You will see results in as little as two weeks. It reduces stress by stretching all those large muscle groups. And the toning is beyond belief. Buy it and enjoy.

This book is great for getting you started. Callanetics is a great program, but the one-hour program is a bit much for one starting out. I used this book to design a shorter program to be done daily--easier than blocking out one hour twice a week.

The book starts with modified versions of the exercises, using common furniture, and by the end of the month you should be able to keep up with a regular class.

Callanetics is the best exercise program I've ever used. It works so quickly -- in a matter of hours as opposed to weeks or months as with conventional programs. The stress on the body is minimal and gets even less as your muscles become stronger. It combines the slow, graceful movements of ballet with very, very deep muscle movements that give astonishing results. It's a superb program!

Noreen Catherwood, otherwise known as Little Miss Prissy Toes was the teacher's pet, who never raised her hand to answer any question, never lost her homework, finished every assignment on time and consequently annoyed the heck out of every other student in the fourth grade including Calliope Day. She was the one the teacher chose to umpire the day's game of recess kickball. Here was Noreen wearing black shoes with white laces, and lacy white socks. And Noreen had the audacity to tell Calliope she was out.

Calliope did what she could to hate Noreen. But to every challenge Calliope presented, Noreen rose. The girls' bad beginning grew into a strong friendship that involved a plot to transform Noreen's pet parrot Baby into Captain Tweakerbeak. They taught him language appropriate for a pirate bird, and presented him to their class, complete with the pirate's scarf on his head and an eye patch. He wasn't a sea parrot, but a space pirate: "Silence earthling," he told the cheeky boy in the front row.

The children liked the parrot too much, though, and the teacher sent Calliope to the office with him. She discovered the intercom on, and instantly cooked up a prank. "This is Commander Zero, leader of the Red First Squadron, Planet Mars. We have seized your school. Do not, I repeat, do not panic." The plan ended in disaster when Captain Tweakerbeak reverted to Baby's personality.

Naturally, Calliope was in for it. But the events that overtook our mischievous little heroine and the cigar-smoking parrot must, I am afraid, remain secret, until you read this book.

Here's a hint for parents, though: This book will keep your third or fourth grader reading for hours. Alyssa A. Lappen

Well, the book Meet Calliope Day, was funny, outgoing and Calliope could cook up mischef as fast as you can say Two Tan Tonned Men 56 times. WOW. This book, Captain Tweakerbeak's Revenge wil surly be just as funny and outgoing. P.S My name is Calliope. So I at least have a coincidence with a book! At LEAST!

This book grabs you and forces you to realize the negative forces that are against you when making a career change. After recognizing them, it then helps you to identify ways to overcome them! This is a must read for anyone thinking of changing careers or even changing jobs. A perfect compliment to "Get the job you want in 30 Days!"

Gary Grappo does it again with easy practical steps in making your career and personal goals mesh. He takes simple ways of evaluating our personal desires and balancing them with our career. If you've ever felt like you've needed change in your current job or you want to get on a that career path you've always wanted to take, then read this book. It will give you the direction you need and the motivation to "take action".

I bought this book when I was doing research for my new child care center. I loved it! It is easy to read and entertaining. At the same time it provides valuable information from an experienced profesional. I loan my copy to parents who are looking to enroll their child in my program. As a parent I could relate to the stories and information.

This book is a goldmine. I never thought I would have to worry about choosing a daycare center, but after I decided (with much agony) to move my child into a center, a friend suggested I read it. I am so glad I did. I realize some of the mistakes I made in my first-choice of daycare, and feel much more confident this time around. I can't think of a single question she did not address in this book, and can't recommend it highly enough.

This book helped give me much more peace of mind than I would have thought possible. My only disappointment is that I don't live close enough to put my child in her center -- the author sounds wonderful!

holy canoli !
what a fun and educational and riveting mystery. The Cat Will Mew.. has everything ! politics, suspense, romance, treachery, betrayal, history,spies, what a thriller ! not only did i learn much about scandals that happened during the civil war but also met strong and deep characters who kept the pace fast and exciting.

am hoping there will be a sequal !! can't wait to find out what happens in the White House !

I have read portions of this book and find it extremely will written, interesting and suspenseful. (...)
