Loved that the Thesaurus landed on my desk within three days. And in perfect condition. Thanks!

The efficiency of your operation is so rare these days; it's greatly admired and appreciated on this end.

Well done and keep up the good work!

Excellent book, bought it for my grandsons who love to write, and I figured they could use it for school.

This thesaurus that i purchased here is very helpful,i had some predicaments before to write a well- written essay like a student in college because of my simple words.My essays were very simple because the words make them simple and boring.From the moment that i brought this thesaurus,i did improve my self and my essays are more interesting to read with my varaition using the words.

Everyone in the family has used the New World Thesaurus at one time or another since our purchase. It's easy to use and complete. Anyone with kids in school or adults who have to develop content in their jobs will find this book a valuable resource.

A most complete resource for writers or closet linguists.
I can hardly find the words to describe this book

This is an absolutely outstanding resource for helping students improve their listening skills. I wish there were a CD with it instead of the cassette tapes. Tapes can be a hassle to rewind and they aren't as durable as CD's. Overall though, it's a great resource and my students love it!

I've used this GREAT book before my last trip to the USA. It's amazing the difference it made to my english. I had several business meetings with Americans and I understood everything, I mean everything they said. That didn't happen to me before using "Waddaya say?". I also learned to use reduced forms to improve my speed. But the most important thing is the almost magical change in my understanding. A suggestion is to follow carefully the instructions, then listen each conversation an repeat it many times. The book is also great source of expressions and uses, not just reduced forms. A must have ! Thank you Nina !!!!!

My students told me that they can finally understand spoken English. This is the best listening book for that. One student said, "It's like magic. I couldn't understand people speaking English last year, and now I can."

It is a good book for those who never learned how to say "what do you want to do?" in a natural way. This book shows you 20 and only 20 most common short forms. The content is well organized. But it is pricey for a book that has only 68 papges. For the most part, you may do a search and find them somewhere in the internet. But then again it is a good deal for those who do not care about the price.

I've used the First Edition of Whaddaya Say for almost twenty years. Nothing I've used to teach students to understand spoken English has ever been better. I was very pleasantly surprised to use the Second Edition, which was published in 2001, and find that all of the lessons that made listening comprehension easier for my students were included along with an additional ten lessons. The fun conversations are even better, and the tapes are really great. I didn't know tests could be useful as well as funny, but there's a wonderful test at the end of the book that was a lot of fun. I want my students to know how English is really pronounced (*wanna for "want to", *hafta for "have to", *gonna for "going to + verb", etc.). When they don't know the real pronunciations, they have a really hard time understanding spoken English.

I'm amazed by one thing in particular -- although the Second Edition of Whaddaya Say has 30% more pages and there are three cassettes now instead of two, the price hasn't gone up. I don't know why the price hasn't increased, but it seems like a great bargain to get a beautifully updated bestselling listening book for the same price as the prior version!

I don't see how anyone can really learn listening comprehension without this book.

Great read. Interesting characters in a believable setting that is funny, and will grab your attention. Ms. Suzette is just getting better with each new book. Can hardly wait for the next one. Recommend reading when not busy or in a rush, you will not want to put it down.

You will read this very fast. Excellent book. Could not turn pages fast enough. A must read for all of you.

We voted this novel Best Romance for 2003.
The story is smart, fresh and keeps you turning the pages.
I loved this story.

BE PREPARED FOR STARES AS YOU COMMUTE ON THE BUS AND THE TRAIN BECAUSE THIS NOVEL WAS LAUGH OUT LOUD FUNNY. ALSO BE PREPARED TO TALK BACK TO THE BOOK TOO BUT HOPEFULLY YOU'LL ONLY DO THAT IN THE PRIVACY OF YOUR OWN HOME/ROOM. :) MS. HARRISON DID EXCELLENT ON HER SECOND GO ROUND WITH THIS NOVEL BECAUSE LIVING ON THE EDGE OF RESPECTABILITY WAS GOOD. I WAS UPSET THAT I STARTED THIS BOOK DURING THE WEEK? WHY? BECAUSE I HAD TO SLEEP AND WORK! A WORD TO THE WISE, START THIS BOOK ON A FRIDAY NIGHT SO YOU CAN READ IT THROUGH THE NIGHT. GOOD WORK MS. HARRISON AND I LOOK FORWARD TO FUTURE NOVELS.

GOD BLESS!

WHEN PERFECT AIN'T POSSIBLE is a love story about a single mother of a teenage daughter who finds herself reluctantly falling in love with her daughter's guidance counselor.

After a disastrous first marriage her daughter Nia's father, Imani, the protagonist, has given up on men. When she is summoned to her daughter's guidance counselor's office, the last thing Imani expects to find is Braxton, an extremely attractive 6'1" head turner, who tickles her fancy but raises her ire. Before long they develop an off again on again romance punctuated with satisfying sexual encounters.

After a spiritual awakening, Imani starts having moral misgivings about the direction their relationship is taking and opts to end the affair. Braxton on the other hand, is not ready for a serious relationship, but finds himself extraordinarily attracted to Imani. After Nia and Braxton are involved in a near fatal auto accident, the two lovers are forced to make some life altering decisions.

This book is a tedious read though it has it's bright moments. The plot is meandering and the characters lack the depth necessary to keep the reader interested in a novel of this length. The author does an admirable job in dealing with the issue of morality in a contemporary relationship. Perhaps a more condensed version of the story would make for a more engaging read.

Henry Wilt is just a regular guy with 'semi' normal thoughts and ambitions, trying to get somewhere in life, except that those around him pay little or no attention to him at all. This drives him to conconct some wayward plan to remove the main thing that's kept him where he is: his wife, Eva. All things are going swimmingly until a chance-meeting with their new neighbours shifts his whole world to one where anything ridiculous and downright unbelievable ends up making a lot of sense.

It's the effortless way that Tom Sharpe interlocks the characters and circumstances in his books that makes them so addictive. I've never read a book where I literally burst out laughing, only to have to sink deeper into my seat to avoid the quizzical looks from those around me. I loved Blott On The Landscape and Porterhouse Blue (and I didn't think he could top them!), but Wilt is by far the best one I've read...and judging by the reviews that Amazon readers have been giving his other books, it seems the journey for me has just begun.

Wilt began Tom Sharpe's peculiar and irreverant view of life that is expanded throughout all his books since. One step outside the normal leads to two steps and before we know it we are in a parallel universe of the absurd that is very, very funny, outrageous, and essentially human, warts and all. Tom Sharpe has inspired some of the best new humour writer's of today. I think particularly of Robert Fox, who in Red Fox Goose Green takes the everyday in English village life -- the fox hunt, the church service, the pub -- and breathes Tom Sharpe style farce into the institutions that made Britain what it is.

If you enjoy satire, and you like it laced with sexual innuendo, profanity and wit, you will love Tom Sharpe's books, but you will particularly love Wilt, which takes you into the world and never-ending irony of lower-class British academia. Henry Wilt is miserable in his existence as a "Tech" lecturer, married to Eva, his incorrigibly energetic, enthusiastic and critical wife. He attempts to escape by way of fantasizing how he might murder Eva, who has recently taken up with the sexually wacky American couple next door. After an embarrassing encounter with an inflatable doll, Wilt decides to practice murder on it, and ends up being accused of murdering Eva. A fantastic read.

I bought this book 15 years ago when traveling. While waiting for a change of planes at Heathrow, I started reading, and couldn't put it down. I started chuckling to myself, then laughing out loud, then laughing so it hurt!! Other passengers were staring at me. I showed them what I reading and some of them nodded knowingly.

It is the funniest book I have ever read!

This is Sharp's best novel yet, the second detailing the life of Wilt a college lecturer and his severely disfunctional family. In what is basically a farce Sharpe's satire bites deep into every subject he touches, as Wilt comes under investigation by the police for drug dealing, infiltrates a US nuclear air base and has to use face cream to cool his burning uncontrolable penis. If my description of this novel sounds manic, the reason is simple, the book is manic. As an Englishman living in the US I am not sure if the humor travels well, but I hope my American friends can appreciate it, because this book is one of only three (all written by Tom) capable of making me laugh out loud wherever I am reading it (which can be most embarrasing). Try it and enjoy a different view of life and then be thankful you don't have to live Wilt's life.

Eric Williams' The Wooden Horse is another military classic which shouldn't be missed, even though it first appeared over fifty years ago. Here's the story of a daring escape during World War II in an expanded, revised edition that tells of a break from one of Germany's most escape-proof camps. The account doesn't just tell how they did it - it covers the aftermath of the break-out, which involved getting out of Germany entirely. It may read like fiction with high drama, but The Wooden Horse is pure fact and an important chronicle in the history of the war.

There are two editions of this book. In the original edition and in subsequent reprints there is a last desperate moment where all the remains between Williams and freedom is a German guard on a bridge. He kills him and escapes...

Only as Williams admitted years later in an anniversary update - that part never happened and was put in to satisfy the publishers who wanted a more "exciting" ending.

...and he is right to come clean on the point - the story was exciting enough without needing tweaking - ingenuity under strain of captivity is well portrayed in the book and after the frightening journey across Germany - his debriefing by an Intelligence Officer counterpoints what went before in a very British and understated way.

A Gripping True WWII POW Escape Story!!

This book took me over until the very last page.

I usually don't care for reading as a past time and especially novels that take too long to get through.

I read this book over 20 years ago (and only did so by chance after finding it in the school library), because I had to submit a book report during my junior high school years.

I enjoyed the book so much I eagery and ultimately compiled a great book report and was awarded 9/10 as a grade.

Funny enough, I did so well with it that I took the liberty to re-submitted the same book report the following year and again was awarded another high mark (of course it was a different teacher and I had to re-write and date it).

In fact here I am over 20 years later I plan to get my very own copy. That's how much I enjoyed it!

"The Wooden Horse" by Eric Williams is a fabulous book and would make a perfect gift to that person who you think should read more...but doesn't.

They'll thank you for it!

This amazing escape episode involved three men, and was not part of the much-publicized Great Escape, but took place from the same camp (Stalag Luft III). This review is an expansion of an earlier one that I had written.

The original Trojan Horse contained soldiers in the process of sneaking into a city. This real-life WWII thriller describes a Trojan Horse used by Allied POWs to tunnel their way out of a German POW camp. While the horse was ostensibly being used for vaulting exercise, a small group of men hidden within the horse dug a tunnel underneath. Eventually it led them to freedom. Years later, "Eric Williams" was surprised that a mere plywood box could have fooled the Germans for so long. Indeed, the Germans apparently never became suspicious of the fact that the horse was always placed at the identical location, and not far from the wire.

The idea was conceived out of the frustration of digging tunnels long distances from the huts to past the camp wire, and the Germans expecting the traps to originate from the huts and finding them. What if there was some way to get much closer to the wire, to dig a tunnel from there, and to conceal the trap from that unexpected location?

The Trojan Horse episode came to mind. It would be a long and laborious tunneling process, as only a few tunnelers and relatively small amounts of sand could be concealed within the horse per exercise session. Otherwise, the horse would be too heavy to be carried.

The vaulting horse was at first used without any tunnelers concealed in it. In fact, the vaulters purposely knocked it over a number of times so that the Germans would see nothing on the inside of it. The Germans were told that the vaulting stemmed from the English craze for exercise.

After innumerable episodes of vaulting and tunneling, the tunnel was past the wire. Three escapees went from inside the horse down the tunnel, and, after many hours, dug there way to freedom. All three made it safely to the Allied lines.

Don't be put off by the recent "out of print" status, this book is a great true story of a prison breakout in WW2. You can also easily pick it up through Amazons second hand bookstores for a relatively cheap price.

Written by the escapee himself, it retains all its charm and spirit since it first received rave reviews in the late 1940s to early 1950s.

The breakout came from a novel, yet brilliant idea inspired by the Legend of the Trojan Horse- ie to use a gym vaulting horse as cover to hide an inmate who dug a tunnel to the nearest concentration camp fence. It succeeded, but I won't ruin the story with all the details, you will have to read it yourself! Rest assured the book is well written, and as it is told by one of the escapees himself it has a certain charm, readability and authenticity about it.

Getting out was just the first part, the escapees still had to travel across most of Germany to reach home, right amidst the heartlessness and desparation of WW2. I found the description of the lives of everyday German people within a major war as soulful, revealing and harrowing as the concentration camp itself.

A remarkable story, a great and uplifting novel, sure to inspire for many years to come. No mundane "political correctness" here, truthfully told and recorded with all the desperation, fear, and courageous spirit of many involved in the war-on both sides.

There was a film also made in the 1960s I think, which was almost as good as the book, but not quite. Of similar genre to The Wooden Horse is "the Great Escape", also made into a film, but the Wooden Horse is more realisitic and better done overall in my opinion.

Uplifts the spirit.

I am not a college student, but I was struggling to handle the unmanageable number of papers that my teachers were assigning in all my A.P. classes. While the authors' approach was humorous, the book was really informative and helpful. I especially enjoyed reading the helpful hints from professors and college students; their real-life advice was practical and helped me establish writing habits that will be of great help both this year and next year when I go to college. Two thumbs up!

As an adult college student, I was looking for a book that would outline what writing requirements are needed for various courses and this book fit the bill. Justin Cohen and Marti Page provided detailed and useful information for different college writing assignments. In addition, they provided all the fundamentals a college student should need to write effectively for any college course. The chapters covered key information with ample examples. It was also helpful to see professors' viewpoints on what students have presented to them and what they really want students to provide in essay and research paper submissions. Moreover, it was helpful to read what students had to say about the processes that they used to provide the correct amount of information for their writing assignments.

If you are a college student who wants to improve your writing skills, BUY THIS BOOK!

I like this book because it's easy to pick up and read the isolated and distinct chapters.

Dancy Ames is an editor at a top New York publishing house. She loves her job, but lately things haven't been going so well. For one thing, she had wanted to be a senior editor, but she was passed on the promotion in favor of an outsider. To make things worse, that outsider is none other than Jack Quinn, her brother's best friend from England. Forget the fact that he's got a sexy accent that makes Hugh Grant seem like a poor imitation in comparison, or that he's devastatingly handsome, or that he's always seemed amused by her since they were kids. He is the one responsible for her month-long "vacation" that leads to her eventual losing her job. What's she going to do? Should she settle with helping out her Italian friend at his trendy coffee shop? Should she finally finish writing her novel, or hope to get a job as senior editor at another house? When things get all the more confusing -- especially after her father reveals that he's got a son from an affair he had with her former nanny -- she eventually gives in and decides to trust God in letting her choose her path for her.

You Had Me at Goodbye is an awesome romantic comedy. The heroine feels real, so do the other characters. Jack Quinn is as sexy as they come, but sometimes I got frustrated with the mixed messages he sent and the fact that Dancy never seemed to really listen to what he's trying to tell her. And that brings me to a few problems I had with this novel. I don't get her cousin Sheri. One minute she is all over Jack and suddenly she actually has no interest in him. Her personality is at times too abrupt and changes in a dramatic, strange way. I knew about Jack and Cate Able from the very beginning, and I can't believe that Dancy, a book author, hadn't put two and two together -- or at least she should have suspected it. Other than that, I enjoyed reading this book. After several "deep" historical novels, I've had a good run of contemporary women's fiction to satisfy my palette for chick-lit. This is actually the second part of the "drama queens" series. I had picked up To Catch a Rising Star, the first part, but put it down. Ah, well. I look forward to reading Laini's story -- the third and final roommate -- when that book comes out.

Dancy Ames is a spoiled little New York rich girl with her future all laid out bright and shiny before her. She has good friends and a job she loves, which provides a nice little salary in addition to her wealthy Daddy's credit card, which she uses to purchase all the little "necessities" not covered by her salary. And just to brighten the picture, there's a coveted promotion on the horizon.

But then handsome Brit Jack Quinn takes a job at Lane Publishing, and Dancy's plans take a swift nosedive. In no time at all, she finds herself jobless and in need of a new career.

After the initial devastation, she decides the time might be right to finish that novel she's been kinda sorta working on for...well, forever. But Jack seems to have found a way into even the world inside her head, annoying hunk that he is! And it doesn't help that unwelcome little surprises keep cropping up here and there and everywhere to add to the general confusion.

With her life clearly on the downslide, Dancy really has no choice but to turn to God for solutions. Can He...will He work things out for a Fifth Avenue princess?

You Had Me at Good-bye is a fun storyline, and an interesting peek into a world where money is no object, and anything over a size two is plus-size. Tracey Bateman has a style all her own, and a unique ability to make readers laugh out loud. At the same time, she paints a heart-warming picture of spiritual growth, emotional development and love in the making.

Don't miss this delightful romance!

When life gets crazy, what's a Fifth Avenue Princess to do?

First, Dancy Ames gets edged out of the promotion to Senior Editor that she was in line for by none other than her brother's best friend, Jack Quinn. Quinn happens to have an adorable British accent and no clue that she's had a crush on him for years. Dancy's new boss wastes no time in criticizing her work and gets her sent on a forced 30-day vacation.

Then she gets fired. By Jack-who then tries to ask her on a date as she's storming off. How pathetic is he?

Next, Dancy's parents deed their high-rise condo - the one with the Central Park view that Dancy has loved all her life - to her brother and his fiancé, who don't even really want it. And Jack shows up to offer a comforting shoulder, throwing Dancy off-kilter once again.

In the midst of all the drama in her life, Dancy finds solace in the words from her deceased Granny's Bible. But she has a hard time believing that there's a trustworthy Father out there who cares about this Fifth Avenue Princess and her dreams. Will she give God a chance to prove that He has the right plans for her life?

This second book in the Drama Queens series by multi-published author Tracey Bateman is a fun, sassy read that won't take long to enjoy.

Set in Manhattan and filled with authentic tidbits, like a hole-in-the-wall coffee shop and traffic jams, it's obvious Bateman has done her homework. The snappy tone and sometimes-quirky dialogue used by the author adds a conversational mien to the novel and keeps the pace flying.

This novel is also sprinkled with parts of the novel Dancy writes during the course of her story, which gives the reader some key insights into the main character's psyche, which is helpful since Bateman leaves much of Dancy's inner feelings to the reader's interpretation.

Don't miss this cheeky look at the life of a thirty-something woman who finds out she really is a Fifth Avenue Princess, and just who her true Father is.

Armchair Interviews agrees.

Author Tracey Batemen writes another winner in her 2nd book in the Drama Queen series. The characters come to life as the story unfolds. Bateman does a wonderful job of drawing the reader in so that you experience all the emotions right along with the characters of the book.

Once you open this book, you will find it hard to put it down until you finish.

"You Had Me at Good-bye" is the second book in the "Drama Queens" series by Tracey Bateman. This volume focuses mainly on Dancy Ames, but her family and two close friends, Laini and Tabby, play prominent roles as well. Dancy is facing several changes in her life including, but not limited to, being fired from her job and learning of a family member she did not know existed. She is having problems finding the right man, which is compounded by the fact that both her brother and her good friend will be celebrating marriages soon. Only after Dancy loses the things that she considers important to her does she realize what it is that she wants the most.

This book contains religious elements but the author adeptly avoids being preachy and trying to overdo the spiritual aspects. Her message of the importance of trusting in God to find the right path for one's life is a central theme. It was fun to see the personal growth that many of the characters underwent as their lives progressed. I also enjoyed reading about the thought processes they used when faced with making important decisions about their futures.

Dancy's transformation from a spineless and indecisive woman into one who is strong and goes after what she wants is well portrayed. The author uses excerpts from a book that Dancy is writing to begin each chapter. These excerpts give the reader insight into how Dancy pictures her life should be versus how complicated it presently is. It is when Dancy learns to accept what she cannot change that her true growth begins.

Women of all ages will enjoy this book. It is a cute story that centers on looking for love, but also stresses the importance of letting God guide you through your life decisions. The interactions between Dancy, Laini, and Tabby are very realistic and will remind many readers of the times they have spent with their close friends. There are some questions listed at the end of "You Had Me at Good-bye" to assist reading groups in their discussions. I am eagerly looking forward to reading the next book in this series.

I fell in love with this book when I first perused it many years ago at the house of a friend. Whenever I would go over there I would grab it from off the shelf. It was very old, so I never suspected it was still in print. Needless to say, I was thrilled to obtain my own copy, which remains on my bedstand.

I love this book. The poems are great and I can find the poems that Anne says in the movie, "Anne of green Gables" and "Anne of Avonlee" I love the poems. I like These are the Times That try Mens Soals.

My father had an old copy of this book that he read as a child. He loved to read his favorites from this book, or simply recite them from memory. They are classic rhyming poems. Another favorite book of mine is "Poetry for a Lifetime", a beautiful volume which includes a number of these poems, including "Plant a Tree" and "Home". It has a much larger number of poems and is illustrated and has comments from the editor. I highly recommend both books.

I read this book as a child 40 years ago. The poems in this book are timeless classics. I look forward to sharing them with my own children.

This was my Dad's poetry text at college in the thirties. Every Christmas during his life he would read the 'holiday' poems to our family. I have carried on the tradition for my children and grandchildren and each year they await the reading of 'Bairnies Coodle Doon' and 'Jes for Christmas', two wonderful stories that bring forward the lives of children of a hundred years ago. If tradition is important to you and if you want to introduce your family to poetry as America knew it for the first 200 years, this collection if highly recommended.

Book is in like new, great condition. This is a well written book, excellent for reading during individual quiet time or time of prayer.

Many devotionals are too brief, being only a few paragraphs long. These daily readings are a few pages each, so they have more meat to them. Each devotion begins with a scripture reference followed by Emilie's application of the scripture, some suggested action steps, and a brief prayer. In the scripture applications, Emilie focuses on her personal experiences and experiences in the daily lives of most women. She encourages readers to apply God's principles in their roles as wives, mothers, friends, and professionals. I have recommended this book to many women, and I passed my copy along to a friend. I wish more devotionals followed this format.

This book has revived my quite time with the Lord. God has used her writings to bring me back to a desire to be with Him everyday for time alone. She uses real life, down to earth situations to show us where God is working and how we can better follow His ways. Excellent book!

This book was very uplifting and I really enjoyed it. I felt that my walk with God deepened. I liked that you can skip around and do which ever one you want to do. I did alot of journaling with the thoughts for action. I also liked that it had additional scripture that deals with the same topic.

Not only is this a wonderful devotional but it is so inspiring! Emilie includes wonderful tips and ideas for making family times special times! It really does only take 15 minutes "Alone with God" each day to make a difference in your life! Once again to Emilie Barnes I say, Thank you!

I purchased this book so that I could read it to my 2 yr old son. The book is extremely funny and well translated. What I love about this book is that it has both versions, English and Spanish. So, my husband who only speaks English can also read him this book. I highly recommend this book.

The Spanish version (book contains both English & Spanish) was too advanced to read all the way through and maintain my 4-year-old daughter's attention - one who enjoys listening to very simple/easy books in Spanish at this point. However, the English side introduces a few Spanish words and even has a glossary for them at the end. I think this will create a good inroad for reading it in Spanish eventually. My daughter loved the story which brings together the familiar tale of Goldilocks, but with interesting deviations (black braids instead of golden locks, beans instead of porridge, and a prior friendly relationship rather than the meeting of strangers).

I like this book mainly for the way its designed. One one side its in spanish only, then on the flip side you can read in english. Its great to read and understand what it's saying (because its an unusual story) and then try understanding in spanish or vise versa.

My children love this book - The pictures are wonderful, and I like how one side reads upside-down - you meet in the middle. My four year old said, "Just like my Spanish workbook!" (We use Flip Flop Spanish curriculum)

Some of the vocabulary they picked up on the first time through in Spanish was frijoles, broma, cocina, blanda, and bosque (beans, joke, kitchen, soft, and forest) - I know they'll continue to grab more phrases and words since they already know all the family and animal names from the Flip Flop book. Great buy! What a bargain!

Abuelo y los tres osos es un cuentito que le cuenta Abuelo a su nieto para pasar el tiempo. Abuelo en su cuento exagera un poco los acontecimientos del cuento famoso de Trencitas de Oro y los Tres Osos. Hay partes que hacen gracia y es un libro genial para los niños. Es bilingüe - en español de un lado y en inglés del otro.
