Goodnight Moon
Margaret Wise Brown
HarperFestival, 1991
Son LOVES this book
I know that this is a popular book, but I was not expecting my son to love it as much as he does. As soon as I incorporated this book into bedtime, all other books sit on the shelf. He usually has me read this story to him 3 or 4 times. And he is trying to say the ...

Angelina: An Unauthorized Biography
St. Martin's Press, 2010
Well Done
I think that this book gives you insight into why Angelina is who she is and how she got there. I find that Morton is very fair in his writing of this book on Jolie. Hollywood is a difficult town to make it in and to stay on top like Angelina has. Jolie has worked ...

Fifth Avenue, 5 A.M.: Audrey Hepburn, Breakfast at Tiffany's, and the Dawn of the Modern Woman
Sam Wasson
Harper, 2010
Full of Surprises
This book was fascinating on so many levels. I loved the background on Capote and Hepburn - Wasson gave us just enough information without over saturating and over whelming the reader.
Most interesting was the path to getting the movie made - the many stops and ...

My kids love this book!
We received this book through PJ library, and it quickly went to the top of the nighttime reading list for my 2 and 3 year olds. They love the story, they love repeating the Yiddish and Spanish after me (their favorite phrase is "farstunkene katz!"), and the story ...

The Very Hungry Caterpillar
Eric Carle
Philomel, 1994
Board Book PERFECT Option for Babies
This is a perennial staple in the children's books collection I've amassed over the years.
When my son started showing interest in being read-to, I pulled out my trusty old, paperback version of this book.
BIG NO NO with a teething baby.
Our local children's ...

The Picture of Dorian Gray
Public Domain Books, 1994
Great Read
Like many of the other reviewers, I've always known the basic premise but never actually read The Picture of Dorian Gray. Also like many here, I couldn't resist the free version after reading the reviews. The story is original (though of course well told after over a ...

Who's afraid of Elizabeth Taylor?
Captivating story of passionate love between two people, whose life in the public eye doomed their life together. This story mainly transpired when I was a young child, and I vaguely recall the press associated with this infamous relationship. The book is hugely ...
