The Stone Lion

Average review score:

A beautiful story for children and parents to enjoy together
My 6-year old daughter recently brought this book home from her school library, and she announced that she likes it more than any other book she has borrowed so far. It portrays a classic theme: the rewards of honesty and selflessness versus the pitfalls of greed and jealousy. The story is set in Tibet, with two brothers, Drashi and Jarlo, portraying "good" and "evil", respectively. The illustrations are gorgeous, and the story is richly interspersed with tidbits about Tibetan culture and customs, with an undercurrent of environmental sensitivity as well. Overall, a wonderful book, and we plan to add this to our home library.

I thought the book was excellent.
I liked this book because it was very thrilling and romantic. It told a lot about how lifeguarding is like and how complicated ones life can be. So if you have a complicated life or if you are torn between two guys this is the book for you.


Sweeney Todd - Vocal Selections
Published in Paperback by Warner Brothers Publications (September, 2000)
Author: Warner Bros Publications
Average review score:

Living the Magic of Sweeney
After taking a part in this show in the fall of 1998, I fell in love with each character within the show. I desperately wanted the score to the show, but realized that this idea was out of the question because it would cost me (too much money). In theater class, i was searching through scripts and came across this rather thin but thourough script of Sweeney Todd. It's definitely a keeper with all of the rare pictures and drawings that are included in it. Buy it!


Tacones High Heels
Published in Paperback by Anvil Press (September, 2000)
Author: Todd Klinck
Average review score:

Fireworks in purgatory
A mind-blowing slice of bohemian life in modern Toronto, Klinck serves it up with a cool matter-of-factness that belies the outrageousness of his subject.

Alternately funny, disgusting, horrifying and even tender at times Tacones (Spanish for "high heels") is a linked series of vingettes (cinematic, journalistic, sometimes epic, always surprising) that the describes the lives of a fabulous assortment of Toronto denizens, from the seemingly ordinary to the downright grotesque.

Here is the young trendy couple starting out in life, here the drug-addled drag queens, over there the violently sociopathic ex-con, the chillingly clueless kid-junkie parents and all the rest of the "parade of cockeyed creatures" that exist in the shadow-world of North America's big cities. There is no doubt that these characters are drawn from life, but from a kind of life that few of us ever see and that Klinck makes startingly real and (even worse) more than a little sympathetic.

Tacones exposes a world of ruined young lives, addicts, murderers, perverts, selfishness, greed all tied together by a dim thread of humanity that nobody quite understands. But that little gleam of humanity is what makes the novel understandable to the rest of us and makes us root for these already damned souls in spite of everything they do to survive.

Tacones is not like any other book I've ever read - well, maybe the shock of it is similar to the feeling that the early Beat poems and novels had on a complacent society. Still, the book is unique and well worth passing around among a group friends. A book to talk about.


Tales from the Freudian Crypt: The Death Drive in Text and Context
Published in Hardcover by Stanford Univ Pr (December, 1999)
Author: Todd Dufresne
Average review score:

A seminal, groundbreaking body of work.
Tales From The Freudian Crypt: The Death Drive In Text And Context is a fundamental reassessment of the work and thought of Sigmund Freud that is both seminal and groundbreaking. Writing from the perspective of intellectual history, author Todd Dufresne traces the impact that Freud's essay "Beyond the Pleasure Principle" had and continues to enjoy on 20th century thought and philosophy. Tales From The Freudian Crypt serves as both an introduction and a corrective to the library of literature on Freud's late theory of the death drive, paying special attention to its ramifications in the fields of biography, biology, psychotherapy, philosophy, and literary theory. Tales From The Freudian Crypt is a highly recommended contribution to Freudian studies and would admirably serve as a model approach to evaluating and expanding other Freudian concepts throughout the coming decades of continued research and study.

Teen Ink 2 - More Voices, More Visions (Teen Ink)
Published in Paperback by Health Communications (01 May, 2001)
Authors: Stephanie H. Meyer, John Meyer, Todd Strasser, and Timothy Cahill
Average review score:

Teen Ink has done it again! Magnificent!
This second volume in the ongoing Teen Ink series cements what I thought after reading Teen Ink: Our Voices Our Visions -- this franchise is taking teen expression to the next level. The stories, poems, art and photography in Teen Ink 2, drawn from submissions to the Teen Ink monthly magazine, are all moving and very, very real.

But what is most important in this book is that, like the first in the series, Teen Ink 2 gives voices to the millions of teenagers who are thrown aside by all the magazines and T.V. shows that dictate who teenagers are, what they should buy, and who they should be. It's not superficial, not patronizing, and not an adult take on teen life.

Among the many fantastic characteristics about this book is the continuing growth of the nonprofit enterprise: Teenagers who want to write can always submit to the book and magazine (instructions on where to send submissions are included in the book), and many more Teen Ink books seem to be in the works.

Keep up the good work, Teen Ink!
