by: Dr. Seuss

1987-01
Our school did the musical Seussical this year, I bought all the books for the directors and some of the cast members. They did an awsome job and had alot of fun. Some of the kids are sad that it is all done. Thank-you for sending the books so fast. Amazon is the perfect place to shop when you are looking for hard to find or older books.
Thanks again

Into the Wild

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Literature and Fiction
by: Jon Krakauer

1999-02
An intriguing and thought provoking read. This book is more than just a biography or epilogue on the life of Chris McCandless. The author does a great job of tracing the last 2 years of McCandless' life while also setting other examples of man vs. wild at counterpoint.

Writing Style
Krakauer has a fabulous eye for detail, a great vocabulary, and his writing shows an intense passion for the outdoors. The descriptions of places, people and events were so vivid and engrossing that I feel as though I have a personal familiarity with many of the locations and events portrayed in the novel.

Even though Krakauer obviously has some of his own opinions and thoughts about the events, he did a fairly good job of presenting the ... Read More:

Fearless Fourteen (Stephanie Plum, No. 14)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Literature and Fiction
by: Janet Evanovich

June 17, 2008
In the 14th installment of thi series, Janet has out done herself, bringing laughter in so many places, and so many ways. Her quirky characters almost make me want to visit Trenton to see if there are really people like this out there. Her humor, and the inclusion of a monkey, just shows how far she has come, and what a joy it is to read her writings, and the continuing adventures of Stephanie Plum.
From the break in at Joe's, to Grandma shooting people to keep them out of his house, this book is well worth the read.

Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Literature and Fiction
by: Anthony Bourdain

May 22, 2000
Kitchen Confidential is a must read for anyone who has ever set foot in the backrooms of a restaurant. Bourdain captures the environment with all its stresses, off-colored language and cooking pride. Kitchen Confidential reads similar to a feature on VH1's Behind the Music as Bourdain battles with his own demons and finds success after many years of debauchery. I have been a fan of Bourdain's No Reservation on the Travel Channel for quite awhile and now as an author. The book lead me to another Bourdain project called the Les Halles Cookbook which has inspired me to spend more time in the favorite room of my house, the kitchen. Thank you, Tony!

This was funny, sad and true. I'm glad I got it when I did as I doubt these will be around much longer. The seller provided it as promised and well within the shipment window promised.

Who Moved My Cheese : An Amazing Way To Deal With Change In Your Work And In Your Life

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Literature and Fiction
from: Simon & Schuster Audio

April 01, 2000
I share most of the sentiments other negative reviewers have expressed about the book. It's insulting to every employee's intelligence (if they have any), although it was a nice way to waste several hours (it took me about 15 minutes to read the book, but we spent hours having meetings and group talks about it led by management). Just thinking about it now makes me glad to be out of the corporate realm and in a small private office.

Everything in this book should come as common sense to any employee worth their paycheck. And it's not necessarily the right way of going about things, although having a positive attitude always helps you out regardless of what situation you're in. But blindly following change does not always make you a good employee, ... Read More:
