Cute book for your younger Spongbob fan

Review Date: 2008-11-21
My youngest daughter has been hooked on Spongbob since she was a year old. Something about that yellow sponge speaks to her heart.
We now own two copies of this particular Spongebob book. The first one was read to the point that it wore out.
The basic premise of this cute lift the flap book is that Spongebob goes all over Bikini Bottom delivering cute homemade Valentine's to all of his friends.

Love the Flaps !

My 3 year old loves spongebob (i usually try to steer her away from him), she insisted on getting this book over all other valentine books. I was really surprised when I read it to her. The illustrations under the flaps are adorable - I was really impressed with the detailed valentine cards given by spongebob. I enjoyed reading this to her. This is definately one of the better spongebob books I've come across.

What a great Valentine gift!

This book was a perfect gift for Valentine's Day for my two year old twins. They love SpongeBob and have most of his holiday board books. This was a great addition to their holiday collection! It is a very cute story which they enjoyed...the book is heart-shaped which is very appropriate for the occassion!

I've been a trekkie every since I was 12 years old. And lots of Star Trek Books + Souvenirs & when I saw this item I thought it was really neat. If you are a trekkie just like me you will like these post cards. Enjoy all 30 of them. ("Live Long And Prospser".)or as Captain Kirk or Picard Say At The End Of The Closing Marks. "To Boldly Go Where No One Has Gone Before."

Review Date: 2007-04-24
This set of postcards is excellent. The pictures are all great and well-varied, and all of them have excellent image quality. I was somewhat afraid that the images would be grainy from being taken from old film, but this wasn't really the case. Some of the pictures also have captions taken from the show, and they're generally quite funny. Humor and kitsch really make the primary theme of this set of postcards.

The backs of the postcards also have a good design with a gray outline of the enterprise set on a grid of gray lines (which also help to keep your writing straight). I don't know why, but the "Search Inside" feature doesn't show this. It shows the back of a rectangular card, but it's blank--not the same as what is actually on the backs of the cards in the box. Overall, this is easily one of the best postcard boxes I've seen in a long time.

I have a friend thats as much a Star Trek fan as I am, and oddly enough, isn't very computer savy. She writes letters! Real 'stick a stamp on an envelop and put it in the snail mail' type letters! She's been wanting some Trek stationary and we have a hard time finding that... especially these days. Well, when I spotted the Trek Postcards, I snatched up a box for her. She was thrilled! I even got a thank you letter from her.. on the Trek Postcard. I couldn't have found a better birthday gift for her. Thank you for making them available.

An exciting read with beautiful photos!
Helpful Votes: 0 out of 0 total.
Review Date: 2007-09-19
This is a beautiful little book. I enjoyed reading Ms. Rubin's text just as much as the photos. It reads more like a novel than a bio. including little known facts and personal interviews of his family and friends. She makes a point to illustrate the early influences of Steven's family and school life that later became themes for his movies. It is a very intimate look into Speilburg's personal and professional journey. Ms. Rubin has included many formerly unpublished photos. It all adds up to a wonderful read and certainly a lovely addition to your library, especially if you are a fan of Spielberg's work.

Great Photographs and Information

Review Date: 2003-10-15
This is a pretty good decent sized book about both Spielberg's life growing up and his most successful movies such as Jaws, Raiders of the Lost Ark, ET, Jurrasic Park and Saving Private Ryan to name a few. There are some great colour photographs from the movies along with a lot of information. If you like the films he has done or are interested in his life then this would have to be one of the best books out there on that subject.

A Beautiful Quality Book.

Great book for the 9-14 age group or anyone older looking for a light read. Lots and lots of interesting pictures of Spieberg's childhood, early career and blockbuster movies and behind-the-scene production. Well written and a high quality book.

And it talks about all the movies he directed.
He then became a famous director after all that stuff

The book is astonishing as I would have love to meet him in person. I have been always fascinated with Spielbergs movies and he has shown me great courage and great technical skills in which he is my number one idol because the movies such as ET and CE32 taught me how to film when I was 6 yrs old. So I could only wish to see him someday.

Thank you

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!!!

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.

Review Date: 2003-07-14
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.

A Welsh Triumph
Helpful Votes: 0 out of 0 total.
Review Date: 2002-03-27
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.

Review Date: 2002-02-12
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.
