Rainbow The Books

My daughter loves all of the fairy books by Daisy Meadows. Thanks for such a great series of books.

In this story the two girls help Bella find her magical bunny! It is a great story that I really enjoyed reading.

Children learn that television is not real. The Bionic Bunny Show book goes behind the scenes of a popular super hero show. Mr. Brown shows the reader the truth.

Also, the reader learns the vocabulary used by the workers on the set. There is a glossary in the back of the book. A good way to expand the reader's voabulary.

The creator of Arthur gives us this behind -the-scenes look at Arthur and Buster's favorite television series, The Bionic Bunny Show, as we see the actor arrive at the studio, get dressed, perform stunts and go home for the evening. The book's pages look rather like a television when we see how the episode appears to viewers. This humorous book, featured on Reading Rainbow, would be great for Arthur fans or for when you want to discuss the unreality of tv shows.

This is a wonderful book for both children and adults. For kids it is an adventurous tale about Mooseberry the mouse. The children learn about the importance of Christian values by learning the importance of saying kind words, serving others, sharing, and forgiving people by reading about how Mooseberry, the Mouse, brings color back into the world with the guidance of Captain Chameleon. The amazing thing about this book is the way in which the author handles the religious undertones- right down to the details. Toward the end, the last color left to regain in the rainbow was the color purple which symbolizes the forgiveness that Jesus has given us. As an adult I found myself reading this book to my husband because it was so good!

This is a fabulous book for adults and children alike. The illustrations are beautiful and the story is very special in it's Christian values. The thing I like best about it is that it captured the attention of my boys...who are "all boys" and into army guys, swordfights, star wars, and weapons. It is a great adventure story and Mooseberry and his friends use their own "weapons" of sharing, kindesss, etc. to rescue the color back into their world. Just great.....my children love it and I do too!

This narrative is mostly about the relationship between Natalie and her mother, Agi. Natalie comes from an upper middle class mainstream Jewish Australian family. Natalie eschews the comfortable upper middle class secular life that her mother envisions for her to become a baal teshuva, a repentant one. Natalie joins a Hassidic sect

Black is a reference to the clothing Hassidic men wear and the rainbow is the joy Agi eventually finds in being the grandmother of five Hassidic children.

Agi is at times meddlesome and disapproving and at others very helpful,

Mother and daughter eventually come to accept each other's differences.

Recommended for anyone interested in the Bal Teshuvah movement, Hassidism, or any non-religious mother who feels lost or distraught because her son or daughter has joined a fundamentalist religion

Helpful book for parents of children who become bal teshuva. Realistic yet heartwarming and encouraging.

This book is fun to read. Most of the poems are silly and they rhyme. The illustrations are great also. If you like Dr. Seuss and Shel Silverstein, this book somehow reminded me a little of both of them--very creative and just plain FUN!!

This book is so wonderful. I am 15 years old and I still read poems out of this book when I am having a bad day.If you do order this book witch I suggest you do read the poem about 5 little monsters. This poem always makes me smile! This book is great for childern in Kindergarrden because it is easy reading and the language is very detailed. This poems relate to children too!

Having read this book (prior to publication) and again after, I can honestly say this is one of the finest books on self discovery that I have ever read. If you are trying to dfiscover where in this broad spectrum of gender and sex you fit into, this book will help you find yourself. This is a relatively quick and easy read, however, to truly accomplish your goals, I suggest to all that they read it at least 3 times prior to doing any of the excersizes. Then go back again in 3 months and 6 months and do them again. You will be amazed at what you will learn about yourself.

I recommend this book to all of my clients and anyone else who is searching for identity....

As a transgendered person, I found this book to be a big help in my search for my gender identity. I applaud Rachel Miller for writing such a book and making people like me realize we are not alone. The advice she gives is just what I need to help get me through my ordeal, and if I could only meet her, I would give her a big hug.

Excellent self-healing book along the lines of the Louise Hay classic "Heal Your Body", a.k.a. the BlueBook. The chapters are seperated into chakra issues plus lots of other gems. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Enjoy!

I love this book! I have been using Annette Noontil's book regularly for years now. I catch some type of bug, I look it up, follow the directions (provided I follow the directions), it goes away.

Sammy Weiss has been set up for a fall, played for a sucker, stuffed in a frame, but for squalid, fat Sammy, who always takes the easy way, who seeks the fast buck and believes the brass ring is right around the corner, the con had the ring of truth. When a two bit gambler asked him to collect a $25,000 gambling debt from wealthy Jonathan Radford III for a thousand dollar fee, Sammy believed the job was legit, because he wanted to believe it. He got in a fight with Radford, fled and went to Dan Fortune, one-armed P.I. to alibi him, but Fortune knows trouble when he sees it and he turns Sammy away.

Later Fortune wonders about Sammy and asks around out of curiosity, then finds out Radford had been murdered and the cops think Sammy did it. Fortune doesn't like Sammy for the crime. He doesn't particularly like Sammy either, but right is right, so he embarks on a quest to prove Sammy's innocence.

Collins knows how to plot a mystery, knows how to paint characters good and bad, knows how to hook a reader. He's been doing it for a long time, doing it well and it's often bothered me that he isn't more well known. If, like me, you've been reading him over the years, then you've seen the tremendous influence fast-talking, wise-cracking Dan Fortune has had on Private Eyes that have come later. You see some of him in Kinsey Millhone, Tom Magnum, V.I. Warshawaki and scores of other wisecrackers and you'll be seeing him in a scores of P.I.s whose authors are still toddling around, who have yet to pick up a pen, touch a keyboard or finger a mouse. Collins has given mystery writers and readers so much over the years and if you haven't read him yet, then you've been missing one heck of a writer who's been writing damn fine books for quite a while now.

When I agreed to review a book written by Mr. Collins's wife Gayle, I didn't know he was married to her, as they write under different names. I did a Google search on her and found out who her husband was and was intrigued. Mr. Collins has long been a favorite of my husband's. Ken has been reading him since the '60s, never missing a book, losing a day when each one came out. I've read many of them myself, and now we're re-reading them. Murder is still murder and a good mystery is as good a read now as it ever was.

THE BRASS RAINBOW opens with fat and slovenly Sammy Weiss trying to buy an alibi from Dan Fortune, one-armed private eye with a C-note. Fortune can't be bought, Weiss leaves and later is accused of murder. Fortune doesn't believe he did it, but the cops do and are on his trail. Supposedly Weiss killed the scion of a wealthy family over a $25,000 gambling debt, but Fortune doesn't believe fat Sammy could have gotten himself into any game or games with that kind of stakes.

Mr. Collins gives us a vast and varied cast of characters to choose from as suspects and at times we're as confused as Fortune as he doggedly tries to clear Weiss. There's a gaggle of beautiful babes who flit in and out of the story to tempt Fortune and to lead him down a false trail or two. There's the beautiful gold digger who wants to marry into the wealthy family. There's the wealthy family who want to keep its secrets. There's a bad cop and a good cop. There's mobsters, good and bad. And there is Dan Fortune who has to sift through them all in the search for a killer in this five star book that is a fun read. You should track it down if you can, or maybe check your local library. You won't be sorry.

My six and three year old fight over who gets to take this book to bed. Thanks to all the outstanding food, game, craft and treat ideas in this book, we've survived (and enjoyed) a rodeo round-up, dinosaur dig and super hero invasion. It's the best party planning book out there, for kids or adult parties (the holiday party ideas are low stress, high fun!). If you have kids, you have to have this book! Order your copy now!

I absolutely love the creative ideas Celebrate has to offer. If you have children or just want fun ideas for your family get-togethers this is a must have!

In the mid-1900's, the author Leinani Melville was a merchant sailor who was taught traditional Hawaiian religion, mythology, and sacred symbols by Native Hawaiians, which included an elderly Hawaiian woman in Waikiki. Just before this elderly Hawaiian woman died, she told Melville to write a book. This book took over 2 decades to write and it is about the Hawaiian Gods, select mythology (including the Kumulipo or creation chant), and many illustrated sacred symbols with explanations. In addition, it does have a few astrological references in the context of the presented mythology or history. Children Of the Rainbow is a unique, priceless, and readable authentic Native Hawaiian resource.

Children of the Rainbow : The Religions, Legends, and Gods of Pre-Christian Hawaii. A most important book for astronomers who date the explosion of X-1 in the beak of the constellation Cygnus as 65 million years ago. First, mankind has not been around that long and, Second, Even though the explosion of X-1 has been recorded all over the world, only the Hawaiians seem to have seen it up close. Apparently, all others were either killed outright by the subsequent flooding of the land or their descendants treated the stories as grandpop's standard story of "the big one that got away." This may be a book about religion, but it is more a book about the heavens and how it reflects years of sky observations, some actual sightings but other views that attempt to explain to their people about the beauty around their islands
