All the paper models are expertly designed. They go together perfectly, even if you aren't big on following directions. Pieces
are printed on both sides so you can't make a mistake. Tabs fit perfectly into slots, score lines make folding a breeze and
the finished buildings look pretty cool. Rest assured, there's no running water and it's a bit hard to get fire insurance
on paper houses. You'll still be living better than your mouse. A fun gift and the houses come out looking quite swank!

Very clever idea. Excellent graphics and easy-to-follow directions. Makes a great gift for that special computer person.
And, for all the Dave Barry fans, this is just not a "guy thing." It's a definite buy

I read this book last night. I was looking for a gift for Christmas for the son of a friend. This book is perfect. Humor,
wisdom, and a great resolution to a problem many young boys face - the ambiguity of how much their success translates into
approval by their parents.
the perfect brother???

Bonny Becker has crafted a cool, funny story. Everyone who has ever hated a brother or sister (for at least ten minutes) should
read this book. Everyone who has ever wanted to be perfect should read it. PARENTS should read it, too--especially parents
who think they want perfect children. This book is a lot of fun, very real and leaves you feeling good about yourself.
What a great story! Highly recommended.

Like the first 2 books this is excellent. Same characters and some new ones. There is bad feelings between the magician
and fire-eater. It keeps you guessing which is the real "bad guy". Carnige is his usual wereman self and still in the limelight.
Jonathan and Raquel are an intersing pair. I see somewhere in the future these 2 becoming an item. This book is a page turner
and hard to put down. I didn't find this book scary by any means, but then I'm an adult and it's a YA novel. I do recommend
this book and the entire series for anyone looking for something out of the oridinary.

Tom Becker is brilliant! Werewmen, Vampires, Albino Magicians, and the Melee-Go Round. WOW!! This series grabs you from the
first pages and doesn't let go. I was so desperate to have this book, I bought it from the Amazon Marketplace (The_Book_Depository)
it came straight from Amazon UK. This book is written in "The King's English"(different from American English in subtle ways)
which only adds to it's creepy charm.
This is a perfect book for reluctant readers and... well...just any lover of a good book. This book is listed as a children's book but it's scary, creepiness makes it perfect for middle schoolers. A great class read-aloud. I promise once you start this series (Darkside) you won't be able to stop. Once you,re reading it aloud to your class they will rush back to class daily for another installment.
BRAVO Mr. Becker!

Such an interesting and inspiring tale, but I want to know more! There should definitely be a part two.
As a new mom, it made me want to hug my baby even closer. I know Jean's Mom was watching her kids from above, and is so proud of them all.

Love and Lentil Soup

Review Date: 2004-10-04
Love is warm, love is lasting, and love can be stretched even farther than an army-sized pot of chicken soup---or lentil soup,
in this case---to fill a heart with hope. Jean Becker's memoir of four little orphan girls who hold tight to each other until
they find themselves together as a family again, reunited with their beloved aunts,uncles, cousins, and baby brother is a
joy to read.
The sun-dappled watercolor on the book's cover is reassurance that this is not a maudlin story of pain and deprivation, as I halfway expected. How could a story about children losing their mother be anything but sad? Not so, in Jean Becker's memoir. I am pleased to report that the author proves that joy comes from the heart, and not from external circumstances.
Whose love is most powerful? A little girl's love for her sisters and baby brother? The grown-up's love for their sister who dies under tragic circumstances, knowing she is leaving her precious children behind? The elderly couple who wrap the homeless children of all ages from toddlers to teens in affection, feeding them from a bottomless kettle of lentil soup and clothing them in community donations?
It amazed me to read that, although life was meager for everyone in the 1940s, not just for children without parents, people still found enormous reserves of love in their hearts to share with strangers. Not everyone was kind and good. And the legal system was less than benevolent. Still, these little girls not only survived, but went on to become givers, not takers.
Jean Becker tells her story, just as it happened, without trying to shock or moralize. She doesn't leave anything out.
As a reader, my own unanswered question is simply this: decades later, and in a materially-blessed age, why doesn't the love of the adult community stretch to include every child and not just our own?

An Excellent set that finally manages to cover all the topics needed for a firm foundation in Paramedicine. Explainations
and visuals are insync with each other, alot of other Paramedic books out there are quite confusing. Topics covered are relative
to the field and explained as straight forward as medicine can get. Paramedic books are often overwelling in presentation
or they lack general knowledge and information needed. It was a organized wonderfully and easy to find selective topic. Great
for old and new EMS personel. Many Paramedic courses have adopted this 5 volume set as their main text. Brady has provided
an excellent informational and educational set of text books. My Basic book was not as easy as these are to take in. Brady
created 5 great volumes; Introduction to adavance prehospital care, Patient assesment, Medical Emergencies, Trauma Emergencies
and Special Considerations / Operations. They had an excellent staff to compose such high quality textbooks. You can't go
wrong with this set of books!

The books follow the 1998 DOT down to the last word. The material is layed out great. The cardiology chapter is good but most
of us in class had to purchase other books to understand EKG's and the ACLS algo's are out of date. You cant go wrong in the
purchase of this set.

I have suffered from panic attacks and anxiety for years. I have tried everything , including medication, with limited results.
I purchased this recording and found that it taught me many useful skills that I use beyond the recording itself. I can now
relax myself through difficult moments with more success than before. I have more confidence in handling panic, when it occurs,
than I have in the past. It has really been a useful tool. I highly recommend it for anyone that feels out of control from
stress.

I am a pilot for a major airline and I highly recommend this beautiful audio-book for anyone who suffers from anxiety and
stress. I see a lot of people on my flights that have a fear of flying and I think this would really help them to overcome
the stress and anxiety they experience in flight. But more than that, this would help anyone who feels anxious,stressed
and out of sorts .
I highly recommmend this audio-book!

Author J. E. Becker, who has earned a B.S. degree in Geology and who has studied prophetic scripture for over forty years,
presents the summit of his life's work in Rightly Dividing The Book Of Revelation, an examination of the Biblical Book of
Revelation's texts that offers a shocking perspective upon their true meaning. Stressing that even the most horrific nuclear
destruction that man can inflict upon the Earth pales before the wrath that only God is capable of, Rightly Dividing The Book
Of Revelation links Old Testament prophesies to the words of Revelation and strongly warns of the great natural catastrophes
that will mark Judgement Day. A powerful, zealously written close study, highly accessible to readers of all backgrounds.
