Movies Books

My daughter loves this book. We read it over and over. She loves to scratch and sniff the fruit stickers. I think watermelon is our favorite!

My daughter has discovered that her world is filled with interesting scents! Now instead of putting everything into her mouth, now it's straight to her nose! So a board book about The Wiggles, one of her favorite Wiggles' songs - Yummy, Yummy fruit salad and that it also smells makes this book one we read often through out the day!! Our book included 14 scratch and sniff apples, bananas, watermelon and grapes stickers. You could probably let your toddler place the stickers on each page, but I did this before I gave the book to my daughter so that she thinks it's part of the book and not stickers to peel off. The stickers smell so good and the book does not follow the song word for word, but it's close enough! Perfect for the Wiggles fan in your home!!!!

The title of this book, has a completed match with the Wiggles song, "(Fruit Salad)" because The Wiggles take turns telling each of the 4 steps in order. What I also love about (Yummy, Yummy Fruit Salad) is that you can learn to make your own fruit salad from The Wiggles directions by singing that song, then you'll have yummy fruit salad too-just like Greg, Anthony, Jeff and Murray.

This is an excellent book about the making of WILD WILD WEST. It even includes the script. The critics were not to kind to this film starring Will Smith and Kevin Kline. However, if you have seen the film and examine this book will begin to appreciate what actually went in to the making of this motion picture. Technically there was a lot more than meets the eye or the eye was aware of in the production of this film. Complex special effects, intricate set designs, costumes, makeup and gadgetry were well thought out to have a look and feel of post Civil War America. This book is brilliantly illustrated with photographs and drawings covering every aspect of the move. If you like films and filmmaking you should enjoy this book.

I read this back in high school almost 20 years ago and the book still stays with me. The author gives an almost chilling tale of loss, and the range of emotions that a parent can go through. While it can be a hard read at time because of the subject matter it's a most satisfying read.

This is a heartbreaking story of a little boy that gets dressed for school, walks around the corner and disappears. His mother only begins to panic when he is late home from school, only to subsequently realise that he didn't make it there.

There are a huge amount of emotions played out through the course of the book, guilt, fear, pain, loss, and I felt heartsick for the mother, who lost her boy over and over again, after all the police leads led nowhere.

Having a son almost the same age as the one that went missing in this book made me very emotional, rethink the amount of independence I should grant him and constantly drill in the whole 'stranger' scenario. Therefore, the book did it's job!

Harvard University professor Susan Selky, separated from her husband, Graham, lets her six year old son, Alex, walk the several blocks to his school all by himself. One morning she says good bye to him, not realizing until later in the day, when he does not return home after school, that he simply never made it to school that morning. He had simply disappeared without a trace.

The police are notified and an immediate manhunt ensues for the missing boy. The story follows the impact that the boy's disappearance has on Susan and Graham, as well as the reaction of those closest to them and of the public at large. It explores their relationship, as well as their relationship with others in the context of the tragedy that has befallen them. You definitely feel Susan's pain.

Sensitively drawn and well-written, the book explores the avenues that Susan travels in her steadfast search for her son. It is a story of hope, loss, and faith, despite seemingly insurmountable odds. What happens is sure to keep the reader on the edge of his or her seat. The author plays on the reader's emotions and keeps the tension taut throughout the story, making for a real pager turner of a book. The suspense is kept up until the very end, where it boils over into a crescendo of a finale. This is, without a doubt, one of the best suspense novels to be found.

First published over twenty years ago, this popular book was subsequently released again under the title, "Still Missing".

This calendar is both fun to use and fun too just look at. You can't help but have a smile on your face whenever you walk past it and even glance at it. This calendar brings back many childhood memories.

I really love this calendar. Because who doesn't have fond memories of "The Wizard of Oz" or Judy Garland? The pictures are really beautiful. There's only 1 black and white and the rest are all in color. The paper isn't the shiny magazine type of paper, instead it's thicker and doesn't have a glare to it; so IMO this almost gives it a retro or a nostalgic look. I also enjoy how each month is color-coded. For example February is in pink and red, March is green and of course July is red, white & blue! My favorite month is April because this includes a lovely picture of Dorothy and Glenda. With the "Wizard of Oz" every day this year can be a good day, if you work at it!

Past Wizard of Oz calendars have had colorized and bastardized images from the movie that I suppose were considered "artistic," however, for die-hard fanatics like me who want their images "pure," this calendar offers real frame-blowups (done well, too) from the actual film itself. Fun graphics and comments throughout, this is the nicest licensed Oz calendar in years.

My daughter loves this book...especially the page where Bert is at the Doctor's office. It helps her know exactly what is what at the Doctor's office and loves to impress the Doctor with her medical vocabulary. All the pages are great and the illustrations are absolutely WONDERFUL!

We bought this book when my son was 1 1/2. We all fall in love with this book. The colorful pictures really draw his attention. He especially loves the pages with planes, boats and construction equipment. My son is now 2 1/2 and still enjoys the book. However I would hope the publisher would have the board book verion. The thin pages would be torn easily because we read it everyday. I highly recommend this book to all parents.

I purchased this book for my 20 month old daughter. She is captivated by it and picks it up 10 times a day. The book is recommended for ages 4-8; however, it is excellent for younger children as well, who learn words and concepts from the elaborate illustrations. This is a MUST have item.

Once again, I basically love the entire CD. I love MK and Ashley CD's they are great, for everybody!

Marykate and Ashely go of to New York city to dance with the New York City Ballet, one dancer holds a class and teachs the twins with some of there girlfriends to dance and how to jump and move your arms in ballet, then they go off to New York city park where they dance with white dresss on to Swan Lake , At the end they see a Ballet show and Marykates dream comes true.

I think that Mary-Kate and Ashley's CD's are cool! I collect their CD's, books, movies, etc. This CD is one of my favorite ones.

This book was great and I can't wait to read it again

This book told of the trials and tribulations of the characters of the past. It helped new viewers to catch up on the events of the past, while taking life long watchers on a trip down memory lane. Great Job!!

As a huge fan of the Y&R from its inception, I was very entharalled and delighted with this book. It is a *MUST* read for any fan of this show. Not only does it take you down memory lane, but it refreshes the memory of many story lines.

I have to say, the authors have done it again. It's a very creatively written book - to sum up all that's happened on the Young Hercules episodes. I hereby thank the author for his wonderful work. I could picture every move of Ryan Gosling in this - and I would hope to see more like this.

Young Hercules was one of the best books I've ever read. It has lots of action and suspense, as well as lots of funny anecdotes. I really enjoyed reading this book becuase not only was it very entertaining but it also was well written.It was very discriptive in that way that made it come alive for me while I was reading it. In conclusion the book was an outstanding mythological story for both children,teens,as well as adults.

I really liked this book. I thought it was better than the first one. I can really picture Ryan Gosling in this book and the author did a great job of bringing in parts from the Series. I love it and I love Ryan. Keep up the good work.

This book is a very nice way to encourage children to appreciate individuals and their different qualities as a person. It was also great to see Zed the Zebra did not lose any self esteem over not sharing the abilities of his friends. Charming story.

We own all of the 64 Zoo Lane books, in print. Zed is, by far, mine and my 2 &1/2 year olds favorite. Very fun! A GREAT lesson.

The 64 Zoo Lane books are fabulous and well worth building into your child's library. An Vrombaut's story series are engaging for both the child and adults. The child learns proper social behavior surrounded by animal characters from around the world. My five year old loves for me to read these stories to her over and over again.

This is such a wonderful book! I wasn't much of an "It's a Wonderful Life" fan until I met the lovely Karolyn Grimes recently. She spoke about IAWL with such passion that I went out and bought the DVD the next day and watched it again, through new eyes.

This book is full of rare photographs as well as little known trivia. You'll feel as though you have a new friend after reading this book.

If you love little Zuzu Bailey, then you need to buy this book! And even if you're only a casual viewer of "It's a Wonderful Life", you're still going to really enjoy reading this.

This gorgeous book is absolutely chock-full of stunningly crystal-clear photos and delightful remembrances from Karolyn Grimes. It's perfect for collectors of books and memorabilia related to old Hollywood as well as those who would just like to know more about the Karolyn and her movies. "Zuzu's Wonderful Life in the Movies" is a cherished book in my library.

Zuzu's Wonderful Life In The Movies: The Story of Karolyn Grimes by Christopher Brunell is a veritable showcase of on-screen and behind the scenes photographs featuring Karolyn Grimes, the talented child star of "It's a Wonderful Life" and many, many other memorable Hollywood films. Complementing these captivating black-and-white photos is a brief yet involving story of actress Karolyn Grimes' personal life, the obstacles she faced, and her extensive filmography. Highly recommended for fans of classic movies, Zuzu's Wonderful Life In The Movies is a seminal contribution to Cinematic History reference collections and a "must" for any dedicated fan of the Golden Age of movie making.
