Book Description
Friends and life. Life and friends. The two are so tightly interwoven it's impossible to imagine one being remotely worthwhile without the other. As Bradley Trevor Greive points out, "There are very few truly solitary creatures on this planet. And most of them have serious personal hygiene issues." What makes friends so special? What does our choice of friends say about us? What sparks the best friendships and keeps them burning? In Friends to the End: The True Value of Friendship, BTG uses his trademark witty narrative illustrated with irresistible animal photos to explore the daily magic we experience through our friends. Best described as a cross between his famously successful Dear Mom and The Blue Day Book, Friends to the End examines themes such as why we can't live without friends, how great friendships grow from humble beginnings, how to identify different types of friendship, what to do when good friends turn bad, and why it's all so worthwhile. "When I think back to all the really great or the horrendously bad times in my life," says BTG, "I can't help but think about how my friends made the former all the more enjoyable and the latter at least survivable. I want this book to help people appreciate friendship for all it is and all it can be."Friends to the End promises to have the same cultural impact achieved by his previous books. His modern classics The Blue Day Book and Dear Mom have been New York Times best-sellers and made the author a household name in more than 35 countries. BTG's seven previous volumes have sold more than seven million copies worldwide.

Buy all of Bradley Trevor Greive's little pearls of wisdom...........2007-08-21
...and then throw out all your antidepressants. There's a book for every emotion one can go through in life. One caveat, however: If you're easily embarrassed, don't read these books to yourself in public. You will piss your pants with laughter.

Wonderful.......2007-09-24
This was an awesome book that any Friends lover would love to have in their collection. I loved reading every bit of it and had it read in a few days if that long. Very interesting stuff in there. We have all 10 seasons and watch them quite often. We will never get sick of watching, learning about or hearing about our FRIENDS!!!
I love it!.......2007-09-11
This is perfect for any Friends fan. It has interviews, photos, episode guides, summaries, biographies, trivia, and so much more. This book is amazing. I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend it because it is just so great. The design is fun, the words are inspiring, and it is all just truly nostalgic. If you really love Friends, then you need this book!

Great Pictures.......2006-12-25
I bought this as a gift for my sister for Christmas...she is OBESSED with the Friends show. The book had tons of great pictures, intervies, and information. I loved the picture on the front cover...all of the Friends stars look so beautiful! Then, on the back cover, it is amusing to see a completely opposite picture, all of hte Friends stars from one of the earlier seasons dressed very casually painting grafitti on a wall :-)
Any Friends fan will find something of interest in this book!
Such a great book.......2006-09-30

A great friendship... an amazing ride.......2007-01-26
Wingmen is much more than a memoir or an oral history. It's the story of a great friendship that spans the decades from World War II to the present day. In turns it's touching, humorous, harrowing, and inspiring. In the end you feel that you've not so much read a book as spent time listening to entertaining stories told by two good friends you've known for years. The chapter dealing with the "Forgotten War" in Korea is especially insightful, offering readers a chance to see a part of this little-discussed conflict from the inside. All in all a great read.
Full Life, interesting history!!.......2007-01-11
This is a VERY interesting book! These boys lead full and interesting lives. Shows us parts of history that you would find nowhere else. Also shows a friendship that lasts a lifetime. I recommend it highly.

Book Description
Everyone knows your wedding day is the most important day of your life. But did you know it could also be the wackiest? Part family reunion, part ceremony, part dinner party, part get-down-and boogie dance party, weddings have a tendency to spin out of control-especially when You start considering all the important questions: Do I invite all of my relatives or just the ones I know? What does a wed" ding budget look like-and how do I stay on one? Where do I find a Dj who won't play the macarena? Why is my groom acting like such a grouch?
So who can you turn to for answers? Your best friend-that wise, resourceful, and wonderfully witty friend who will help you pull together the wedding of your dreams and make sure you have fun along the way.
In The Best Friend's Guide to Planning a Wedding, Lara Webb Carrigan, like that indispensable girl Friend, helps you navigate the complicated process of organizing a wedding with smarts, grace, and, above all, good humor. After having survived he hundreds of brides-to-be and newlyweds, collecting the kind of useful suggestions that no one thinks to share -- until after the wedding. Filled with voices of real women, plus insider tips from wedding consultants, caterers, and other pros, this essential resource offers practical, step-by-step strategies, checklists, and real-life advice from brides who have been there before. It also debunks wedding myths from "All bridesmaids have to wear the same dress" to "Seating charts are optional" and "The more makeup you wear, the better you'll look."
Like your best girlfriend, The Best Friend's Guide to Planning a Wedding helps you keep track of all the details (and your wits) while reminding you that what matters most isn't a perfect wedding but a wonderful marriage.

Much more traditional than you'd think..........2003-06-12
The cover and the title of this book imply a funny, light-hearted, less-tradtional approach to the adventure/ordeal of planning a wedding. In truth, other than stressing the importance of doing what you want, rather than what you're being told you *should* want, this book is very traditional in its advice and approach. While the author does mention a few less traditional weddings in passing (mentioning marrying while skydiving numerous times), none of her advice is geared toward anyone actually taking one of these paths. Also, she seems to assume that every reader has the average $20,000 to spend on a wedding. One would think that a "best friend" might have had a few cost-cutting hints here or there. I give this book only two stars because it does not live up to its appearance. It's perfectly good for those of you having a traditional wedding; just make sure you have lots of money to spend if you're going to follow the advice.
Helpful, earnest and humourous!.......2003-02-14
With the plethora of wedding books on the market today, it's interesting to find one that strays a bit from the norm. With realistic reactions, numerous 'case studies' about other wedding, and interjected 'wedding myths' throughout the book, it's a quick read, a helpful guide to getting married, and a sets a good tone and perspective on the craziness of weddings, verses the serious commitment of marriage. It would be perfect, except it's really geared towards the bride in a 'her wedding not his' sort of way at some points, which i don't personally care for. However, I still highly recommend the book.
Everyone needs a "Girlfriend" at a time like this.......2001-08-14
My man and I are planning our wedding and I am a wreck. This book made me laugh and think and get really excited. I recommend it to anyone that is planning a wedding, especially if you don't have a lot of friends who have planned weddings recently. Lara gives great advice and backs it up with ideas and antecdotes. A must read!
Putting her at ease.......2001-02-10
I recently got engaged and my fiance was terrified about all the plans we would have to make. We do not have a lot of money and have to be very careful how we spend the little we have. Lara's tips and tricks and funny stories have set her more at ease. This book is so worth the money it will save in psychotherapy!!! It is warm and fun. We loved it.
Peace of mind with a bunch of giggles ..........2001-02-06
I thought this book was wonderful! Lara Carrigan does a great job at making the reader laugh while offering extremely useful information. I have purchased several "how to plan a wedding" books and I am using this one almost exclusively! It is great! After I read a couple of pages, I feel a lot less stressed out - which is a good thing for a bride-to-be! I recommend it to anyone planning a wedding! (She has a great sense of humor also!) Lara Carrigan is a princess!

i feel that anybody going through a grieving experience should have or be gifted this booklet. it is so helpful in understanding the diffrent stages we go thru when we grieve, both for ourselves and for the people around us trying to support us. it makes a tremendous difference. written in a clear and easy to understand way that is soothing and calming. a real gem. i highly recommend it.
very insightful.......2005-07-31
This book helped me so much when my Grandmother died. It gave me an understanding of the grief process and the stages of grief in an easy to read manner. It helped me know that what I was feeling was part of the normal healing process. After reading this book I have been able to have more compassion and insight into others who are grieving from the loss of someone or something they loved. Everyone should get a chance to read this book for we all grieve at sometime in our lives and have people close to us who we want to support with their grief.

A tough read but still beautiful poetry.......2000-05-19
End of Torment can be viewed as an indepth clarification of Hermione. The book (or journal) was written at the time of Pound's hospitalization, and Hilda has a lot to say about her ex. However, HD still has her way with words (or play on words) and symbolic imagery, which can make this read a sweat. Nevertheless, it still is beautiful poetry and should not be overlooked. Also included is Hilda's archive of Pound's priceless poems.
Book Description
Watching children befriend one another carries lessons for all of us. They quickly step outside of themselves, give one another a chance, invest everything in the moment, and trade hugs at the earliest possible opportunity. Such is the stuff of true friendship. Such is the stuff of Friends to the End for Kids.
Bradley Trevor Greive proves time and again that he knows how to connect with even the youngest of readers. His Friends to the End, aimed at a grown-up audience, shows adults how to appreciate the people closest to them in everyday life. Now Friends to the End for Kids does the same for its younger audience in prose and pictures that capture their imaginations and tickle their funny bones.
Greive's award-winning combination of captivating animal photography and direct, eloquent words reinforce what kids already know in their hearts, that friendship is about love, loyalty, and-most of all-fun. Friends to the End for Kids is the perfect keepsake to help kids celebrate the magic of friendship.
Customer Reviews:
Great for Kids with Special Needs.......2007-01-10
I got this because I think it portrays some great emotions, ideas, and it makes for good parent-child discussions. Special needs kids, (autism, aspergers, etc.) might find it easier to talk through these concepts because the subjects are animals.
