Postcards

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Postcards
by: Annie Proulx

January 01, 2003
Some people really do not like this book. Some have given it one star in a review, and others have complained that it does not stand up next to Proulx's much more famous "The Shipping News", yet I feel moved to come to its defence. This is Proulx's first novel, and, for those who do now know the storyline, it begins with the collapse of a family unit on a small farm and goes on to chart the progress (in inverted commas) of the members of that family across the geography and time of the United States in the 20th century.

The fiercest accusation levelled at this book is that it lacks a plot, and I would be inclined to agree, but this is not necessarily a bad thing. Indeed, I often find that otherwise good books are spoiled by their ... Read More:

Whats Your Story Postcard Collection

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Postcards
from: Waterstones

August 07, 2008
I first tried ordering this from here a couple of days after it released, but the order was cancelled when the supplier could not fulfil it. Turned out waiting was a mistake, because as you know, it pretty much sold out completely within the day! Anyhow, after many e-mails and telephone calls, I managed to find a local store who had an employee with a copy they had read and no longer wanted. £5 and a bottle of wine later, my gift to an avid Harry Potter collector was finally in my hands.

Sure, to me it's not worth £5 at all, not for the two pages that people are buying it for. Evidently though, it's a sought after thing now, as the prices on here and eBay reflect that. As a result, it gets 5 stars for making one Harry Potter collector ... Read More:

A Flower Fairies Postcard Book (Flower Fairies)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Postcards
by: Cicely Mary Barker

July 04, 2002
This wonderful collection is a must-have in every household- it has saved many a birthday, when I've forgotten to buy a card.
The imagery is so familiar, yet they bring joy to all that comes across them.
Also make a perfect gift for all flower-inclined children- and adults of all ages.
Beware that the cards are quite hard to remove from the booklet, heavy handling and they may rip.
Strongly recommended anyway!!!!

The Earth from the Air Postcard Book

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Postcards
by: Yann Arthus-Bertrand, Maximilien Rouer

2002-10
This is a really amazing book, and the photos are stunning. It would, though, have been better if the book was printed in landscape format with one photo on each page. In this book many of the photos are totally ruined by the fold, which effectively splits the images into two separate entities. This is especially annoying when you consider that the center of the image - the part obscured by the fold - often containes the focus point (a tree or a man). Buy this book if you must, but if you can: buy another version!

Oh! My God! I Miss You (Collectible Postcards)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Postcards
by: Yoshitomo Nara

March 26, 2004
Firstly this is not really a book it is a colection of 30 postcards but anyone who is either a fan of Nara's delicious style of painting, or just wants some groovy postcards to send (just under 20p each) will really like this pocket show case.
So do as i've done and get your self a copy and stick them up on you walls and brilliant thing is if you don't like any of them you can use them as a post card!

Life in a Postcard: Escape to the French Pyrenees

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Postcards
by: Rosemary Bailey

April 01, 2002
If this was a sunday times best seller then the competion must have been dire. Writing style is amateurish, a reminder of all those school essays entitled "What I did on My Holiday". It was repeatitive in places and over padded with excesssive use of "How the Monks Lived", from my point of view that was covered in junior school history lessons and it provided inadequate account of village life.
