Dear Readers, I think this book is a very good book. Some of the stories are similar to some of Terry Jones' other books. Part of The reason I read this book was because I liked another book "Nicobobinus" so much. "Fantastic Stories" was very nicely written and Terry Jones' humor comes out often in this, along with his wildly spread and unusual imagination. Micheal Foreman's illustrations were excellent. I believe Terry Jones and Micheal Foreman make a good team. Together, the two individuals have created a very interesting and wonderful book. I would recommend it to anyone who loves fairy tales, especially those with a twist. sincerely, Michelle Barbara O'Loughlin

The characters portrayed here you've either met or after reading you'll wish you had. Jones does an excellent job weaving the trials and tribulations of farming and ranching with the truly unique characters that are found down on the farm. I'd highly recommend it.

Excellent book! Great for home schoolers. It covers a wide range of reading levels so it can be used for a number of years and/or by several children of different ages making it economcal both in cost and storage! It's easy to use and fun. The same basic format is used each month but as the context varies the children will not get bored. The choice of books is great too. No taste is left out.

I recommend this series highly. Every chapter is a five star sermon that not only informed and enlightened, but called me to a closer walk with God and His Son Jesus Christ. I have been mightily impacted forever by what I have read here.

I cannot speak for this entire book, but it seems to be the only way to obtain The System of Dante's Hell these days, and this is a truly great book and a must read.

The System of Dante's Hell is a short novel in which a black soldier travels through the American south. Like Dante in hell, Jones/Baraka's tour shows you this hell from the outside, but not really from the outside. Anyway, the book is brilliant.

This book really touched my heart and life. I read this when I was a new Christian and it made a great impression on me. Faith or fear? Which will it be?

This book is an excellent read! Fight the Good Fight is a great Christmas gift or birthday gift. In addition, Fight the Good Fight is a tremendous missionary tool. This book illustrates that the forces of good and evil are constantly at work. You can picture the earth as a giant battlefield on which a giant battle is being waged. You must decide the outcome of that battle. Fight the Good Fight will also inspire you to live a better life and be happier. It will prepare you for the future.

Mary Manz Simon is wonderful! My son has all of these books and they are his favorite. The easier level he could read easily in first grade and the second level he could easily read in second grade. I think he likes them for several reasons: they are fun, easy, repetitive, rhyming and familiar Bible stories. These books are great for building reader confidence. When we got the 8 level two books he read them all in 2 days, and asked for more!!!! HIGHLY RECOMENDED!!!

Excellent source for week-by-week information for a new mother. I read this book during my pregnancy and found it to be the most informative book as to what happens to mother and child during those 9 months.

This book talks of the people, politics and history of those that lived on Jones Island. It includes stories from people who were still alive to tell the tales of life on the island. It includes many pictures and names, a must for those researching their roots that go back to Jones Island.
