This has to be my favorite version of The Art of War. It is a nice hand-held hardback with beautiful sketches of dragons, warriors, and calligraphy, .

This book has always been one of my favorite books as a child. It's sort of like a Where's Waldo book that includes popular fairytales such as the Three Bears, Baby Bunting, and Tom Thumb.


Family Tree Legacies: Preserving Memories Throughout Time
Review Date: 12/10/2010
Helpful Score: 1


This book is a wonderful 3-ring book for preserving family memories. The pages are nicely done and they give you many copies so that you can write down practically anything. They also send you a CD so you can print out more if you have to. It has a beutiful fold out family tree along with several tabs: Introduction, Our Family, Our Family Tree, Memories and Traditions, Family Photographs, Family Heirlooms, Relatives in the Service, Relatives Making News, Places, Family Recipes, Important Dates, and a geneology Reference Guide. I bought 2 copies, but purchased a few more as gifts because they are definately excellent quality and a great way to sit down and write out family memories and traditions.

A lot of good ideas that we can incorporate into our small home. I own many of Martha's books.

Popular Mechanics 101 Things That Go Fast: Planes, Trains and Automobiles You can Make and Ride
Review Date: 2/8/2014


This is a great book. It has blueprint images and instructions on how to make old wooden toy cars, roller coasters. It also has great illustrations and descriptions of each item. I could sit and look at this all day, and if I was still a kid, it'd make me want to dream up my dream fort or castle. You probably want to have a big yard if you buy this book and enjoy woodworking and engineering.


The Precious Legacy: Judaic Treasures from the Czechoslovak State Collection
Review Date: 1/2/2014


I found this book in a used book store and the pictures were very well done. This book has some amazing archival photographs and descriptions of Torah Mantles, other religious objects, and paintings. There are a few pictures that are thought provoking and sad to look at, such as a photo of a box of confiscated wedding rings.

We ordered this book from someone on Paperbackswap and my son loves picking it up and looking at the front and back of the book. He picks it up and brings it to us to read. I enjoy reading it, but I admit that sometimes I leave the name Truman off sometimes or make up my own story after I've read it a few times in a row. Great pictures and fun book.

I had this book as a child, and purchased a copy for my child. The story and pictures are just vibrant, wonderful, and detailed.
