People raved about this book. I found it very depressing. I didn't see the humor in people's suffering. Portions of the book were entertaining but I found myself looking forward to the end.

A book I would read again.

Curly's sore tooth is the cause of several humorous stories. Written for a child ages 9-12, but great nostalgia for those of us who grew up in the 50's and 60's. The Three Stooges performed a brand of comedy known as slapstick. They used harmless props and horseplay. The book contains many pictures. Brings back a lot of memories.

I've been on an self imposed Iris Johansen read-a-thon. This is the best book I have read in a long time. I couldn't put it down. Contains romance, betrayal, intrigue, action, suspense and several different personalities that keep the storyline moving. Just when I thought there was going to be a "happiliy ever after" there was another twist to the story. It's a long book with 430 pages.

My favorite is mushroom barley pilaf. The book has easy Mediterranean recipes without using meat, dairy or tofu. I have a dairy allergy so I find the book wonderful. I don't find the ingredients hard to find. The book calls for fresh fruits and vegetables and common ingredients.
