The book is very interesting. The characters are Xanantos, Demona, Goliath, Hudson, Broadway, Bronx, Brooklyn, Lexington, and Elisa. I'de rate it at 20! You'll love it. Read read read. Get a used copy.

This is a great book about the hit TV Disney series "Gargoyles". It's not the usual Disney tone which makes it more unique and fascinating. They are defenders of the night waking up in Manhattan after being in stone sleep for a millenium. You definitely should read this book.

From medievel Scotland to modern-day America a clan of Gargoyles learns a new way of life, one that is completely different from the one they left and hard to comprehend. With the help of their human friend, Eliza Masa, they learn to adapt. The book is faithful to the tv cartoon series, as are the illustrations depicting the Gargoyle clan.

I loved this book. I have read almost all of the Stephanie books and this was one of my favorites.
This book is about Stephanie starting a catering buisness .She doesn't realize the amount of work that it takes to run a buisness.
I love cooking to so it made the book even more fun. I have read this book twice. And I will probably read it again. It is a fun book for kids around 7 to 12. I hope you pick up this book and enjoy it just as much as I did!!!

Stephanie cooks herself into a heep of trouble. When she needs to cook dinner for her family and they like it, she otimaticly thinks she could make it in the cooking buiness. READ THIS BOOK!

This book was great. When Jessie can't cook dinner, Stephanie takes his place. She cooks an excellent meal, which everbody loves. So then, Stephanie decides to run a catering buisness! She gets a bunch of orders, and she messes up all of them!!!! Finally, Stephanie manages to burn a salad, and makes an important decision. But for more details, read the book!

i loved this book i grew up there but later on i think that my mother is the helen in the book she remembers all these guys at salisbury rewnting a house when here nad her girlfriends rented a house and one had leukiamia she loved it also

Spouse and I both left a stack of bestsellers to gather dust while we devoured "A Summer with Charlie." We laughed. We cried. We were deeply moved. We recommended it to all our reader friends. You can't ask for better from a book than that.

I enjoyed the book very much because it brought back memories of my own younger years. It was written with sensitivity and wit, and showed the effect Charlie had on friends and family in a life cut too short. A very entertaining read.

emma Toll and her brother, David see new neighbors from their town. The Brauns and their ten year old son, Lex is living in their neighborhood. but there is something weird about them, they can be only seen at night and Lex's name is not in the school lists. when several people starts to get sick. emma toll and david Toll are sure that they are vampires.

Emma toll knows that something is wrong with her neighbors. Her neighbors are like ... VAMPIRES!

Emma Toll believes that her new neighbors are vampires. Of course, nobody believes her. Emma starts to think her theory isn't true, since it seems far fetched even to her. But her theory isn't far fetched at all...it's true. I really loved this book. It always kept you on the edge of your seat, wanting to know what the vampires will do next. One of the reasons I liked this book is because even though I can't see episodes of Are You Afraid Of The Dark? anymore, I can read the books based on the episodes which is just as good. If you liked this book, I suggest reading Goodnight Kiss and Goodnight Kiss 2 by R.L. Stine.

Beautifully written....Taliesin Jones sparkles with that sort of childhood innocence that we all wish we still had...Author Rhidian Brook paints a spectacular technicolour picture of 11-year-old Taliesin Jones growing up in Cwmglum, Wales. Taliesin's increasingly dysfunctional family (his mother's run off with the hairdresser, his father keeps hoping she'll come back, and his brother is completely taciturn) spurs his thirst to find out whether there really is a Christian God. Through his piano teacher and mentor, Billy Evans, who happens to be a healer (that is, one who heals by praying), Taliesin comes to grasps with who he is, who his God is, and growing up in his place in Welsh society.
The language in which this delightful novel is written captivates and provides a vivid mental picture. One finds themselves thinking what Taliesin is thinking, seeing what he is seeing, and searching for his answer along with him everys step of the way.
Fantastic.

This is a wonderfully uplifting story of a young Welsh boy trying to find his way in a confusing world...which became confusing when his mother ran off with her hairdresser for reasons Taliesin doesn't understand, but which Brook makes clear to the reader. Though the story is told from the boy's point of view, the reader is in the position to see that he is working out his own salvation in the stumbling way of the seeker who knows where he is going and why, he just doesn't know how.
What is endearing is his great "plan" which comes to naught as does most of our plans. Tal is just so normal.
I've passed around my copy and encouraged the public library to buy one for their shelves. The paragraph about the Skin Clock is worth the price of the book!
I would love to read Brook's other book, Jesus and the Adman. His skill with words, character development and setting are exemplary although plot resolution was a bit weak...still a heartwarming read.

This is a moving, wonderfully written portrait of a Welsh boy with 'still-growing eyes' emerging out of childhood into a world of new uncertainty and possibility. Destined to become a Welsh classic. Buy it and spread the word.

the young lad for whom I purchased this has his grandmother read this book to him every evening before bed

I bought this book for my 6-year old son. He likes it very much and he is very proud of reading the book by himself. Additionally, the pictures are very nice and vivid.

My 5 year old is just starting to read and this was a great book for him to work his way through. Buyer beware - This is more advanced then a Bob's Books type series.

Stephanie and her friends are in summer camp and they think it's going to be great! but then they find out that the flawmingos are there to! isn't it weird that every camp Stephanie goes to she mets Rene there! not that thats good or anything, but it makes a good story line, but Stephanie isn't that worried after she mets Luke. Then Rene tells her that Luke has a bad past, Stephanie doesent belive her- at first, but, could it be true?

I loved this book! It was really cool, and I couldn't put it down!

I really liked this book. It was about Stephanie and her friends at camp sail-away. She met her boyfriend out on the water. He was water skiing and the wave he created knocked her boat over. He came over to see if she was ok and one thing led to another. I would recommend this book because it was cool, exciting and you never know what would happen next.

I just became a STAR WARS fan this year with the release of the Special Editions. I won this book at an author signing and trivia contest in Orlando. I carried it with me to school and all my Star Wars buddies went and bought a copy, too. Now we spend our lunch periods testing each other's knowledge of droids, ships, characters, villains, planets, etc. It is the best! Lots and lots of fun! Plus, I met one of the authors at the bookstore and he was so cool to talk to. Nice and friendly and wearing jeans. I hope he does another STAR WARS book

But watch out-even Yoda was stumped...test your knowledge of: All three STAR WARS movies, including the 20 anniversary commemorative SPECIAL EDITIONS; Divided into several thematic categories, over 1,300 questions (and 300+ pages) will test your knowledge of the SW universe with STAR POWER (ships to speeder bikes), I, ROBOT (droids), STAR TECH (technical specs, etc.), EWOK THIS WAY (Ewoks, of course), STAR WARFARE (self-explanatory), ALIEN FACES & PLACES (alien races and planets), WANTED: DEAD OR ALIVE (galactic bounty hunters), REBEL RUMBLINGS & IMPERI AL TRANSMISSIONS (dialogue with missing words, which you have to figure out or match to the character who spoke the line), etc. Interspersed throughout the book are dossiers of Luke (FROM FARM BOY TO JEDI KNIGHT), Lei (PRINCESS BY VIRTUE, REBEL BY CHOICE) , Han (SMUGGLER'S BLUES), Vader (LORD OF THE DARK SIDE), etc. and all the trivia questions in those categories cover the designated characters.

If you're really into home theatre or are just getting started collecting DVDs, you have got to have this book! It lists almost 2,000 movies with a story and a picture of the DVD box, but best of all, it gives professional reviews of the picture and sound quality so you know which movies will show off best on your home theatre equipment. It also tells you about all the extra features that DVDs come with. There are articles about DVD software, reviews of DVD players, articles about how movies are made and a lot of other awesome stuff like DVD-ROM and the difference between widescreen and pan-and-scan movies.

The Ultimate Widescreen DVD Movie Guide is a must for everyone who loves to watch DVD. Widescreen Review has done a wonderful job to create an informative, technically brilliant and easy to read guide for every owner of a DVD-player. The 555 pages provides you with every data you can imagine: DVD reviews (technical data, a short story line, picture and sound rating), facts and inside looks on the DVD industry, a DVD-player buyer's guide, a DVD-ROM review section, complete listings of DTS- and THX-DVDs and a complete set of DVDs FAQs. For everyone new to this hobby it's great to get an explanation on the various aspect ratios movies do have. It simplifys things a lot just to open the magazine and show someone the facts when explaining why it's better to have a 16:9 TV set instead of a 4:3 or why on a normal TV the black bars are good things and not bad ones. Another interesting section is the 70mm movie list which shows every movie made in this format from 1929 until today. Complete with studio, soundtrack, original photography format and notes. Don't we movie buffs love things like this. The DVD FAQs are interesting stuff for beginners and even "experts" can learn a thing or two. All in all the issue, which is thicker than some telephone books I know of, is worth every penny spent. I'm really looking forward to get my hands on the next issue 2002. Congratulations to the staff for doing an excellent job.

The Ultimate Widescreen DVD Movie Guide is not just a guide...it is a complete reference for all that is widescreen DVD. There is nothing on the market that can compare to the extensive compilation that Widescreen Review has put together here. From a comparison of DVD players on the market to thousands of DVD reviews, this is definitely the guide for DVD enthusiasts and newcomers.

THIS book was a real delight to read in Spanish . I give it 5 starsssssss

This book is great. As a Spanish teacher, I can use it to encourage my students to read and enjoy things in the language they are learning. The material is already familiar to them and it makes it easier for them to read. The students love reading their favorite classic stories in another language. Even though it isn't authentic reading material from a Spanish speaking country, it is a wonderful book!

I bought this book for my 5 year old daughter , she is bilingual and she loves Disney stories . She loves it , we also have the stories in english so she enjoys the same stories in both languages . It is a great book , the translation is really good.
The only comment I have heard from her is that not all the pictures have colors , she would like to have all of them in color but she still enjoys it, it is a great buy.
