I'm a big fan of Rugrats the TV show, and I knew this book would be much better then any of the episodes. I was right! It's extremely funny, and it's full of adventure. The only bad thing about this book is that some parts are really confusing, but you can easily get back on track.

When Tommy loses his favorite holey pail, Granpa Lou and the babies are blasted back to the time of the knights of the round table!Lou takes the place of Merlin and Angelica is the great Socerless.They meet up with the babies of the Round Table and Mordred,Morgan Le Fays bratty son. He Tells them if the want the missing knights of the Round Table back, the need to rerform six nightly deeds.This Book is very funny. I recomend this book to the fans on the tv show The Rugrats

This book is about Tommy. He is looking for his Holey Pail. Then they are in the time of King Arthur. The characters are Tommy , Chuckie, Phil, Lil, and Grandpa Lou. They try to find the pail. I think this is a good book , because it is adventurous. I would recommend this book, necause it is a great story.

When Tommy loses his favorite holey pail, Grandpa Lou tells him and his friends the story of the Holy Grail. Before they know it, Tommy, his grandpa, his cousin Angelica, and his friends Chuckie, Phil, and Lil travel back in time to Camelot, where they meet King Arthur, the Knights of the Round Table, and a toddler named Adelaide whose father has been captured by the evil sorceress Morgan le Fay and her bratty son, Mordred. Now Tommy and his friends must embark on a quest to defeat Morgan and Mordred and rescue all the knights being held captive in their dungeon. To do so, they must complete six difficult quests that even the bravest knights have failed at. This was a fun, cute, and entertaining book for Rugrats fans both old and young.

Scooby and the Mystery, Inc. gang headto the Lone Wolf ranch where Fred spent some summers as a kid. The ranch is celebrating it's 100th Birthday. However, the ranch is in some financial trouble and if the celebration isn't a success, the Lone Wolf might end up a dead wolf. Not to mention that people start believing a curse about a wolfman who has come to take curse the ranch. Zoinks! What's the gang to do? Figure out the mystery, of course.

I enjoyed this book. It's very simple to read and helps improve deductive reasoning skills, even in an old foggy like myself. It's a good story and seem just like one of the television shows.

This is a vintage scooby doo mystery. The gang is off to the Lone Wolf Ranch where Fred spent his childhood. They meet up with a strange man carrying a hammer and yelling about a full moon and the wolfman coming back. There's a story that the wolfman will come back you see...and of course he does! The gang is then off to find the real identity of this wolfman, save the gold horseshoes and the ranch and keep Scooby and Shaggy from eating all the bar b qued food. The book is set up in chapters which can be read by an older child or read to a younger one. My six yr old loves scooby and wants this read to him constantly. For any adult fan of scooby who wants to introduce their children to a great classic.

I'm a 26 year old fan of Scooby, and also an educator. Althought this book was geared for younger children, I actually enjoyed reading it. The plot is reminiscent of the classic TV show, yet the story is simple enough that even younger readers can follow. As an educator, I se these books as a great way to introduce children to deductive reasoning, critical thinking and problem solving skills. And since the story focuses around a character with which the child is familiar, the interest level is bound to be higher.

My 19 month old grandaughter absolutely LOVES this book. It really teaches words and she loves opening the flaps and saying the words. I would definetly recommend this one!

I love this book for the simple fact that it allowed me to teach my 18 month old all the common words in various settings (park, aquarium, farm, school and home). It also has flaps which intrigue her as she likes to see whats behind each one. I am amazed at all the words she has picked up from this book! Fantastic book for parents wanting to establish letter recognition (alphabet page) and build their childs vocabulary!

This book was a gift from grandparents and it quickly became my 19 mo. old daughter's obsession. She selects it any time I ask her to bring me a book to read to her and will carry it to me on a whim as well, simultaneously calling out "elmo."

Great book. Very colorful and the flap parts are fun and pretty sturdy. It keep's my child's attention for a while.

It is a book for all seasons; a book that should be on the coffee table-- picked up and read at any time; a book full of text and photos both inside and outside his cinematic life; a book of biography and filmography; an art book; a fun book featuring many photos of his film faces (remember Manu as a lady-of-the-night??) and much, much more.
Mustaq Shiekh, author: 'the book is a tale of a journey that led from New Delhi into the homes, hearts and minds of innumerable fans all over the world, and a journey that transcended boundaries of nations and the artificial barriers of culture'.

OF course...by far he is the best in Bollywood!!!! My sister was the happiest person in the world to receive this gift for her birthday! She loves KING KHAN!!! ......who doesnt???!!!!

If you like scrap book format coffee table books, then this is the book to get. Each page is filled with enough color and sites to keep any guest awake through the wee hours of a party when the crowds have thinned out or are too drunk to talk. The book is a lively walk through the actor's life from his parents' first meeting to his super stardom as the "King of Bollywood." But the story does not stop there, this is more than just an actor's ego centric ramble. The book takes you on a journey through Bollywood and Indian culture both in the past and today. I would recommend this book to anyone to loves Shah Rukh Khan, Bollywood or colorful visual adventures.
If you want to see a good example of his acting then buy Kuch Kuch Hota Hai.Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (Shahrukh Khan)

I am happy with this wonderfully illustrated and written coffe-table book about the King of Bollywood! I haven't finished the entire book because I am trying to savour every page but it is a must have for any SRK fan.

This is a fun book for any Elmo fan. It helps teach body parts, as well as coordination, and it's a cute book besides!

I ordered a second copy of this book after the first one was destroyed by rain! We used to read it to my oldest daughter and decided to buy it again after our third child was born... not only does it teach different parts of the body, it is a great way to get your kids moving!

This is one of my daughter's favorite books because it's very involving in a physical and non-threatening way. You read the text, you show her the movement, she sees the movement depicted, and does it. She had lots of fun and was very interested in learning the names of various body parts.

This is a wonderful book, but not before a nap or bedtime. For that, I'd recommend the related Elmo book "Quiet Time."

Elmo and his friends perform various easy to imitate actions in their muppet exercise class. My two year old loves to follow along and do each step like 'honk her nose' and 'rub her tummy'. It's a great book for 1-3 year olds.

My son normally isn't thrilled about reading, but he takes these two books to school every day and reads them at their reading time!

Finally books to come out for kids with adventure based on some old school stories.....

i thought these books were great they have so much imagination and are jam-packed with adventures and fun!! children will love them as much as adults !! this was written by my daughter so there's you're point!!

This is the best book I ever read, it is amazing, I thruly recomend this book to all the action fans and childrens.

Well written, very funny and quite smelly. Includes interesting details not included in the movie. My four year old son and his nine year old girl cousin enjoyed this book for hours and it became was the launching point for many smelly jokes for days afterward. A treat for children and the lucky parent(s) who get to read it to them.

as long as you like stinky things! LOL Really, though, my 4 year old is a fan of Shrek and she found it a great story to read and also fun to sniff the stinky stickers!

This is truly a smelly piece of children's literature. The stickers made me gag, but my little boy LOVED them and we are all still laughing at the foul stench of the stickers. Our friends dread coming over because the little one has a new sticker to let them sniff. Great book!

Oliver Sack, MD called this book, "a remarkable account of what it means to be paralyzed, speechless, incapable of communication yet fully conscious... and to struggle back, over the years, to an active and creative life."
I was fascinated by this feminist film maker's candid account of her devastating stroke, and learning to live with disability after seeking out a variety of therapies. You see her struggle with depression, overcoming access barriers, dealing with insensitive hospital staff, and coping with the details of bodily disfunction.
It helps me to understand the experience from the inside view. Quite enlightening.

This book should be required reading for anyone in the field of rehabilitation. And it is a tremendously inspiring story for all of us who wonder how we could ever manage if we were struck with a disabling illness. If it were fiction it would be a great read. The fact that it's a true story gives one goosebumps as well. Bonnie Klein suffered a devastating stroke. This book is about her recovery - both physical and psychological - and the wonderful love and support she received from friends and family, especially from a wonderful husband. It also shows the predjudice and meanness of some people when they are faced with a person who is "different". And the ignorance and arrogance of some of the rehabilitation "professionals" she encountered along the way. It is a story of terror, hope, the tremendous importance of love and support, and how one finally comes to terms with being less facile physically than one used to be. Bonnie Klein is a hero. Her family and friends most loving and genuine. It is a great read.

Ms. Klein establishes important rules to live a fruitful, productive lifestyle, despite a chronic illness: Live life by celebrating life. Independence is control over one's own life measured by the quality of life sustained with whatever help is needed. Sometimes dispair can lead to depression. Sometimes, it can be motivating.

This is a great book! I have read a number of books written by stroke survivors and this is one of the best. This may well be because the book was completed several years after the event. This time gave Ms. Klein the chance to gather and refine her thoughts and experiences.

I am also a stroke survivor. Her acknowledgement that she experienced progress long after the stroke was especially encouraging to me. The medical world says that all progress stops in 3 months to a year. My experience is that the body is a living entity, which is forever changing. So, it makes sense that it would not stop changing because of any medical condition.

The book has humor and is written in a warm and caring context. I would recommend it not only for stoke survivors, but also for caretakers and for health professionals

Tells the story of how Spiderman came to be. Although simplified, it deals with the issues of not fitting in, being ridiculed and bullied. My four year old loves this book and it is short enough that it holds his attention without being too basic.

My son absolutely loved this book, deals w/ bullies Spider Man encountered.

Maybe you've heard of me.
Maybe you've seen me.
I am Spider-Man.

Above is the first page of this beginning reader. The writing is representative of the next 27 pages--contractions and some multi-syllable words add a bit of challenge to one who is just learning how to read, but the best thing about it is that it's fun!

The emphasis is NOT on simple writing. The emphasis is on the story, which is a simplified version of the first Spider-Man movie: the Green Goblin only shows up in one picture and is not named--the book emphasizes how Peter Parker became Spider-Man and what he can do now that he's been bitten by a "man-made spider".

My young son summed it up best when he said, "This is a SUPER book, Mommy. And I can read it myself!"

hi it's me again. well this book is a fun book to read for anyone. it is based off the new spider-man movie. well anyway it's just a real fun book to read it's like reading the movie before it's even out. i recomend this book to you..yeah thats right i am talking to you! fun book
