good for separation anxiety stage.......2007-09-15
I first read this book when my daughter was 6 months old, she is 27months old now and still loves reading the book. we play act the book now, and she's full of laughs.
Fun book every time we read it!.......2007-07-19
This book is so cute as you peek a boo look for mommy on each page. What a cute and fun book the kids love this one everytime!
Oooooh, where is she?!!!.......2007-04-17
Toddlers will love this fun story. It has a hint of mystery as Baby searches for its Mommy. This is a unique way to teach kids the process of elimination as the illustrations rule out each place where Baby's Mommy is not hiding in anticipation of the exciting reunion between Baby and Mommy.
Excellent.......2006-11-11
Though my Son likes books of all kinds, he absolutely loves this and other Karen Katz lift-the-flap books. The illustrations are so simple, colorful and bright. After having read it a zillion times, he still is not tired of smiling everytime he finds mommy!
Where is Baby's Mommy?.......2006-08-07
My 20-month daughter absolutely loves this book. Lifting all the flaps and being suprised everytime to see what is behind them. Always when she finds the Mommy I say " There's mommy" she looks at me with her big brown eyes and says "NO" and points to me and says "Mommy". The book is absolutely ADORABLE.
Book Description
Chickens show off their human side in Sloane Tanen's irresistible dioramas.
With more personality than most people have to spare, New York artist Sloane Tanen's tiny yellow chickens negotiate the tricky modern world, filled with three-headed blind dates, menacing KFCs, playground popularity battles, and annoyingly crowded yoga classes. They perch amid doll furniture, in scenes photographed in glorious color and brilliantly captioned- and their lives will strike you as strangely familiar...
Charming, spiky with off-kilter wit (or waxing jobs gone terribly wrong), and somehow larger than life, these chickens win the hearts of all who behold them.
Customer Reviews:
the chicks are SOOOOO cute.......2007-05-20
My new favorite animals are now chicks because of this book.
Really funny, fun book.......2007-01-10
This is such a great coffee table book. Sloane Tanen is really ingenious with her creative work. Each little vignette has fantastic details, many of which you only see the second or third time you've looked at the book.
A great girlfriends present or birthday gift... after you've bought one for yourself!
You really will enjoy Tanen's chicks!
i love mini chickens with feelings.......2007-01-06
this is a great book, good gift..
highly reccommend it.
does have adult humor, which makes it great.
but i imagine it could be used as a children's picture book too, so the parents have something interesting to read.
Bitter with Baggage boring.......2006-11-06
Sorry, but I bought this book with quite high expectations of being intrigued and entertained and I found it really boring.
Not great to show a first date..........2006-07-07
I learned the hard way. He was late..and I popped into the local bookstore and spotted this. I like chickens..so I had to pick it up..and I couldn't put it down! Hysterically funny! So I bought it. Naturally when "he" showed up he asked what was in the bag..not thinking about the title...I showed it to him. He didn't get it..or a second date for that matter. I went home and drank wine and laughed my rear-end off! A must have for men or women. Has nothing to do with being bitter or having baggage..just funny life and times of some chickens...

Finish it...if you can.......2006-12-19
I read a lot of mystery books and Patterson is one of my favs. But this book just didn't hold my interest. Wouldn't recommend.
Patterson can do better.......2006-12-19
This book reads like a mediocre Lifetime movie.
Maggie Bradford is a rather cliched character that lives a very surrealistic existence. Quite honestly, she is a fairly unsympathetic protagonist.
Will Shepherd is a fascinating character that keeps this novel from being a complete waste of time. He's a womanizing, crude, violent, worldwide superstar.
While on the World's stage as one of the most well known athletes, he manages to lead a rather turbulent existence that leaves him alienated from the rest of the world. Through bad relationships and a brother he has to blackmail to keep quiet about his dark side, Will is a lost and depressed human being that is incapable of finding peace from within.
He looks to Maggie Bradford to save him from his despair, but he finds that she is not the anecdote for what poisons him. It is at this point that Maggie finds history repeating itself for her and her troubled relationships.
James, James, James, I Didn't Know You Were a Lifetime Fan!.......2006-08-23
Okay, some of the other reviewers are a bit harsh, but this book wasn't THAT bad. Then again, it wasn't that great either. It's not very original or unpredictable, but it gets three stars because yours truly wasn't bored. You can't really give a book a bad review if it wasn't boring or truly horrible. That said, I'll sum it up for those of you who haven't read it:
Maggie Bradford is, more or less, an overly dramatic version of Carly Simon--you know--the kind of singer/songwriter they'd put in a Lifetime storyline, and Will Shepherd is an English soccer playing psycho version of one of her former flames...let's pick Warren Beatty. Will's a demonic, lecherous, bad tempered creep with homocidal tendencies who thinks Maggie and her music can save him. In other words, he's so vain he probably thinks her songs are about him. Okay, joke aside, I'm surprised this wasn't turned into a Lifetime movie at some point. Pass, and give me the Women's Murder Club instead.
Awesome.......2006-04-05
I am home recovering from surgery and I have purchased 30 of James Patterson's books after reading Mary Mary on the airplane. I have the DVD's of Kiss The Girls and Along Came a Spider and I had not read any of his books. I am hooked. His short expense filled chapters are wonderful. I encourage everyone to read this author's works, they will not regret it. This book was awesome, I have not been disappointed yet. All 30 are great. I am waiting for Judge and Jury and then I have them all. The Angel series, the Alex Cross and the Women's Club series are just awesome. Get them and read them, you wont be disappointed.
A Real Thriller.......2006-03-18
This has to be one of the most exciting thrillers I have ever read. Just when you think you have it all figured out, James Patterson comes out of left field with another twist.
I was mentally exhausted by the end of the book!

Book Description
At night the summer sky stays light over Edinburgh. But in a shadowy, crumbling housing development, a junkie lies dead of an overdose, his bruised body surrounded by signs of Satanic worship. John Rebus could call the death and accident--but won't. Instead, he tracks down a violent-tempered young woman who knew the dead boy and heard him cry out his terrifyng last words: "Hide! Hide!" Now, with the help of a bright, conflicted young detective, Rebus is following the girl through a brutal world of bad deals, bad dope and bad company. From a beautiful city's darkest side to the private sanctums of the upper crust, Rebus is seeking the perfect hiding place for a killer.

Ian Rankin/Inspector Rebus take Hide and Seek to a new level........2007-04-28
I have to say that I wasn't sure what to think of this book, especially since I'm not a big fan of mystery/detective books, but I read Ian's first book in the series and enjoyed it so I thought I'd see if he could keep my interest on the second......and boy did he!!!! It still boggles my mind how Ian writes a 210 page book with so many twist and turns and yet it never feels like he has to rush to finish the story. I guess what I'm saying is that this book flows extremely well for having so much going on and yet it only takes him 210 pages to wrap up the story! Inspector Rebus continues to grow as the main character in this book and he has a great mix of "hard edge attitude", the ability to "turn on the charm", and yet still be human and have "weak" moments as well. It also helps that Ian has added some side characters from the police force to help readers undertsand how John Rebus interacts with his fellow co-workers (on and off the job). If you are new to this series, get the first book (Knots and Crosses) then get this book. However, you will be fine buying this book even if you didn't read the first one. Either way, you won't regret it.....I sure didn't.
Disappointing.......2007-03-12
I couldn't get into this book. I didn't think the characters were very interesting and I really couldn't get too excited about the plot. Perhaps I found the characters too pathetic. Also, this was my first Rebus book and I must say, I don't like him much as a character. Some of the description about Edinburgh was interesting but I guess I just found the book too sordid, too boring.
Not too impressed.......2006-12-02
Stop reading this if you have not read the novel, because a spoiler follows.I sure have read a lot of great comments about Ian Rankin. Comparisons to Michael Connely caused me to search him out. Not in the same league in my book. A so so story with a hard to believe plot. Does every wealthy man in Edinburgh enjoy wathcing underage junkies beat the heck out of each other and then have sex with them or watch their buddies do so? They sure are having a gay old time in Rankin's sordid Edinburgh. I liked the Rebus character, but I don't plan to seek him out again.
I somehow missed this one.......2005-09-13
While living in Spain, I had to get most of my books from Amazons UK site. That is how I discovered this author. I thought I had read all his Ins. Rebus novels, but missed this and found it here. It is as good as the rest. I have never been dissapointed in his stories. Some are weaker than others, but none have I not enjoyed. It was nice reading this one as it gave me more background on Rebus' past.
He is a very well fleshed out character, with a very intriguing personality. Rankin also describes Edinborough very well, and gives a very good impression of the city.
If you haven't read a Rebus novel, do. If possible start with the earliest and go in order, as his background develops with each novel.
Highly recommended
On hunting a modern-day Mr. Hyde........2004-03-09
He had wanted to update Robert Louis Stevenson's "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" for modern times, Ian Rankin writes about his first Inspector Rebus novel, "Knots and Crosses" in the introduction to the 1999 British compilation "Rebus: The Early Years" (unfortunately not available in the U.S.), which contains the first three installments of the series. Oblivious to the mere existence of such a thing as the mystery genre - or so Rankin says - he was stunned to soon hear his book described first and foremost as a crime novel. But eventually this characterization prompted him to have a closer look at the work of other mystery writers, and he found that the form suited his purposes just fine; that in fact he "could say everything [he] wanted to say about the world, and still give readers a pacy, gripping narrative."
Bearing in mind the original duality of Jekyll and Hyde, however, Rankin's tales are not dominated by a contrast painted in black and white. While the villains Inspector Rebus faces are certainly every bit as evil as Stevenson's Mr. Hyde, Rebus himself is far from a clean-slated "good guy:" Divorced, cynical, hard-drinking and a former member of the SAS, he is a brother in spirit to every noir detective from Dashiell Hammett's Sam Spade and Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe to Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch, James Ellroy's squad of crooked cops and Peter Robinson's Alan Banks. Nor is Rebus's Edinburgh the touristy town of Calton Hill, castle and Summer Festival (although the series has meanwhile sparked real-life guided tours to its most famous locations, too) - as befitting a true detective of his ilk, Rankin's antihero moves primarily in the city's dark and dirty underbelly, which is populated by society's losers and where those who have "made it," those with money in their pockets, only show up if they have shady deals to conduct as well.
The title of Rankin's second Rebus novel, "Hide and Seek," is an even more overt play on Robert Louis Stevenson's famous dual character(s) than the mere juxtaposition of cop and killer in "Knots and Crosses;" and when the villain's identity is finally unveiled, the parallels between this book and Stevenson's become even more obvious. Here, Rebus is on the hunt for the killer of a junkie whose half-naked body is found in a run-down, deserted building in the Pilmuir housing estates - the worst part of town, notwithstanding a nearby construction project involving high-priced luxury condominiums - positioned crucifixion-style and near a drawing possibly hinting at Satanic rituals. And Rebus's only witness seems to be the young woman who had been living with the dead man for the last three months and heard him yell "Hide!" before pushing her out of the door, telling her: "They've murdered me;" but who is now more than just a little reluctant to cooperate, taking refuge, instead, behind an almost unbreakable rebel-against-society-facade, complete with peroxide hair, stud earrings and Attitude with a capital "A."
While this series had a terrific start already in its first two novels, published in 1987 and 1991, Rebus's character - and Rankin's writing - has evolved significantly over time. Thus, it is probably wise to read it in the order of publication. Contrary to the novels he wrote under the pseudonym Jack Harvey, however, and which he views much more critically in hindsight, Ian Rankin overall still seems to be happy with his early Rebus books, commenting: "I can't read them without thinking back to my own early years, my apprenticeship as a crime writer. Read and enjoy." I have nothing to add to that ...

America: What Went Wrong?
ASIN: 0803949820 |
Book Description
Who are the homeless children in America and what do we know about them? How does their being homeless affect them and society in general? What's being done to help them? What About America's Homeless Children? takes a multifaceted look at the growing, disturbing problem of children (including infants) in homeless families and abandoned and runaway children in America. The author examines the social factors that create homeless situations of children and personal and educational problems that can result from it. The health risks to this population, including unsanitary living conditions, poor nutrition, physical assault, and lack of access to health care are also explored. Author Paul G. Shane brings the problems and effects of homelessness to a personal level by presenting ethnographic case studies of individual children in urban shelters, families in a shelter program, and people who "survived" a homeless youth experience. The history of programs, both governmental and nongovernmental, and government policies for homeless youth are also examined. The book concludes with recommendations for policies and programs that can prevent homelessness for children. Human service professionals and policymakers who deal with children and families as well as those in the fields of public health, policy studies, and clinical and counseling psychology will find this book a stimulating summary of research findings and implications about this vulnerable population.

ok.......2007-05-29
My child likes this book just fine, but it is fairly low quality. The books at a dollar type store have the same shiny paper.
Fun and entertaining.......2007-04-13
Purchased for my twin boys who are nearly two. They love this book! I still do not let them play with it alone though, believe they would ruin the slide pages
Great book.......2007-03-08
My on loves this book. He is able to slide the tabs by himself and they are very sturdy!
Great Baby Book.......2007-01-07
My 2 1/2 year old nephew had a great time pulling out the slides on the pages. It will take some time for him to learn the colors, but he likes the activity offered by this book.
Colorful and interactive.......2006-11-20
This is one of the first books our little guy, around 6 months old, got interested in. Its combination of colorful pages--extra simple on black backgrounds so they really pop out--and sliding pages made it fascinating for him. Now that he's older, he loves to pull the sliding pages himself. We've moved on to every slide-and-seek book now, but the Colors book is still his favorite. It's basic, sure, but babies love it and I highly recommend it for your littlest little ones.
Book Description
From the moment they are born, children experience an unfortunate value system that reserves respect and esteem for a select few. Those who fail to measure up end up resigning themselves to a lifetime of feeling inadequate and inferior. Over the past twenty-five years, more than a million parents and teachers have benefited from Dr. James Dobson's insightful counsel in his classic Hide and Seek. Now revised and updated, and in paperback, this book provides a new generation of parents with practical pointers for raising self-confident, healthy children.

a very interesting read ...........2006-08-04
The book starts with a somewhat surprising beginning which grabbed my attention early. After that, the first couple of chapters talk about the importance of confidence and how it can be eroded over time. After Chapter 3, the book picks up and gives some interesting insight into building confidence. There were some religious references that I could do without. Other then that this book is a must read if you have children.
Self Esteem.......2006-02-27
Excellent Book, one every parent and/or parent-to-be should read! Timely delivery and in excellent condition!
One of the best child-rearing books available.......2003-10-16
Dr. Dobson does an excellent job of getting across the basics of child psychology and how they relate to self-esteem, without either talking over the readers' heads or talking down to them. He describes some of the ways that parents can untentionally weaken their children's self-esteem and many ways to prevent or remedy that situation, ultimately giving the child a self-image that is based on inherent worth rather than abilities, attractiveness, possessions or performance. This book is highly recommended to anyone who is disappointed in the prevailing current views on how to build a child's self-esteem, and wants to try a better way--God's way.

Hide and Seek by Cherry Adair.......2006-10-17
A sexy, fast read filled with action packed drama and well developed characters. This is a perfect read for a plane ride or commuting. It's hard to put down but easy to pick up where pulled yourself away.
Delanie takes care of everyone except herself and the one time she took a walk on the wild with mysterious Kyle Wright, thinking it was just a fling, is burned into her memory long after he left her. Years later, her sister, whom lives on the wild side and constantly needs rescuing, disappears and Delanie, the family rock, finds herself facing the one man she wishes she could forget as she poses as a bimbo at the side of Ramon Montero, the world's most notorious drug and weapons dealer and her sister's last boyfriend. Hidden deep in the jungles of South America, Kyle has his own agenda and Delanie stands between him and his mission. It's hot in South America but this book sizzles.

Hot!!.......2006-10-11
This is the second book by Cherry Adair in the Wright Brother series.
I read the first, and then ordered the others. The first book, Kiss and Tell, was about the sister, Marnie Wright.
The second, Hide and seek was about Kyle Wright, Dr. and undercover agent.
Delanie Eastman's sister is missing, and the only way she has to find her is to pose as the girlfriend of a drug lord named Montero.
She is a his estate lying in the sun when Kyle Wright recognizes her from 4 yrs ago. They had a affair, and haven't seen each other since.
Delanie doesn't want Kyle to know why she is there, and Kyle while working undercover for the government, doesn't want Delanie to mess up what it has taken him years to set up to take Montero down.
Kyle is a chemist that Montero has hired to produce a small pox virus to be sold all over the world as a killing agent.
Delanie and Kyle are there for different reasons, but the sparks between them is still there after all these years. Kyle wonders why Delanie would get involved with a man like Montero. When he had his affair with her she was innocent and a virgin.
Montero decides to give Kyle a gift, the gift is Delanie. She doesn't want that so Montero gets rough with her.
She has no choice but to move into Kyle suite at the compound.
After witnessing the way Montero can kill someone with the blink of an eye, she fears for her life. And on top of that someone drugs her. She has no choice but to tell Kyle why she is there.
The only way she can find her sister and Kyle can take down Montero is to work together. But then everything starts going wrong, they are shot at, on the run, tortured, and everything else you could imagine. All the while not being able to keep their hands off each other. And I mean everywhere they go, even against a tree.
The action in this book I think was better than the first in a way, and the romance was stronger than the first book.
All and all, it was a book that was hard to put down, and made you want to start on the next book in the series.
Very Good Read!!!
Sexy jungle adventure.......2006-09-13
After being declared prudish by her fiance and discovering him in bed with another woman. Delanie Eastman spent a passionate night (well, three nights) with sexy Kyle Wright n an effort to shed herself of her pesky virginity. Four years later, she finds herself in his company again as she has infiltrated a gay South American casino owner and drug lord's island lair, posing as his girlfriend as she searches for her missing sister Lauren.
Ramon and Kyle have a history; both attended college together, and he recruited Kyle to help him develop biological weapons for sale to the highest bidder. As a gift, he offers his mistress to Kyle, who willingly takes him up on the offer. Unbeknownst to Delanie, Kyle has spent the last four years in an elaborate undercover sting operation, culminating in the prosecution of sadistic Ramon Montero. Her presence is a distraction he's not willing to gamble on. As he tries to get her to flee to safety, she continues to ignore him and get herself into trouble. But it looks like the Montero family is making more than biological weapons, as Delanie finds herself on the receiving end of a powerful drug (rohypnol meets Spanish fly) that causes her to lose all control, much to Kyle's delight. Will they be able to find Lauren before it's too late?
If you're looking for a racy adventure, Adair's fast-paced and sensuous follow up to "Kiss and Tell" is sure to please.
Don't waste your time on this one.......2005-11-23
Hide & Seek is the 2nd in a trilogy. The first book, Kiss & Tell was fantastic. It could easily be an action movie. This one was rediculous! A kindergarden teacher posing as a "hired girlfriend" for an internationally wanted drug lord, who's mother sells women into sexual slavery. OH MY GOD! Just because it is a romance novel is not an excuse for a stupid plot. On top of that, there were so many errors in the book (grammar and clarity) that I wonder if the author had an editor. And if she did, why didn't they do their job?
I loved te first book, but after this one, I'm not sure I'm gonna bother to read the third.

Good For Tubbie-Fanatic Toddlers.......2001-10-17
This pop-up book asks you who's hiding behind different things, with the Teletubbies being behind the first four hiding places. Then comes Noo-noo & finally all the Teletubbies are hidden. While 1 or 2 year olds who like the show will probably get some giggles out of it, the book's art work is lacking. It's pretty stale fare, especially the sky. Couldn't they have put at least one bird, or maybe the sun with the baby's face in it up there? This seems to be a rush-job to capitalize on the popularity of the tv show. Looks like it worked - the copy we have is a 5th edition. There's many other pop-up books out there that are done much better, but if your little kiddies love the Tubbies, I'm sure they'll dig this.
Teletubbies Play Hide-and-Seek.......2000-01-22
My 8-month old daughter LOVES this book! It makes her laugh out loud and she already has figured out how to lift the flaps on her own when we read it! It's a cute little book for babies and toddlers. I don't mind the Teletubbies so much anymore! :-)
Teletubbies play hide and seek.......1999-12-18
I know most parents cringe at the thought of the Teletubbies,me too, but my one year old loves them. In "Teletubbies Play Hide and Seek" little ones are asked to find the Teletubbies under the flaps. After just a couple of readings she understood how to wait until mommy reads the words before she lifts the flap. She also learned the word boo. It's a little word, but it's a start. You might not enjoy the Teletubbies, but it's worth it to watch your child's face light up.
This book is great for toddlers!.......1999-11-24
My 18 month old daughter absolutely LOVES this book. She takes it to bed with her at naptime and at night and then carries it around with her the rest of the day! The lift-up flaps have really helped her eye-hand coordination and she can already anticipate the results of her actions. The books format also is good for allowing parents to ask developmental questions and she is so proud when she can follow the directions!
Teletubbies Play Hide-and-Seek.......1999-11-24
My one year old daughter loves this book! It is a very delightful book. It is fun to lift the flaps on each page. She picks this book most often for me to read to her.
