<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I'm taking some time off from writing and reviews. I've decided to spend my time making dresses for the <b><span style="color: #cc0000;">Dress a Girl Around the World Organization.</span> </b> If anyone is interested in sewing cotton dresses for little girls, below is a link to the Dress a Girl organization/webpage.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">These little girls are from poor countries and without this project most would never own a new dress in their life. The dresses are easy and simple to make. Some are made from a simple pillow case. If interested you can leave a question in the comments.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I'll be back in the future to write more reviews, but for now my interest lies in a stack of fabric to make dresses and dolls for adorable little girls around the globe. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;">The
simplicity of this book is what makes it so perfect for young children. The
illustrations are depicted with clay models which bring awareness that this
child has a problem without burdening a small child’s emotion. </span><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;">The story depicted is of few words, but
enlightening to the situation.</span><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"> </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Jill Dana,
author of <i>Her Pink Hair</i> wishes to
bring awareness to small children about cancer. In the book Jill portrays that
some who have cancer get better and some do not. She expresses in a way that leaves a child
only taking from the situation what they are able to understand and handle.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">The book
does not state that a child has died, or that a child suffers. It simply
displays the fact that this child lost her hair and this child had to rest and
that this child was not able to go to school. I think this is a wonderful book
for young children to have a first experience of a friend or sibling who is
undergoing chemo therapy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

that could cause him his life.</span></div>

Jack knew just where to go. He hires three former police officers who work for the Davenport Detective Agency. During the initial investigation, the detectives focus their attention on the militia group, M.A.G.O.C. (Men Against Government Overtaking Control), only to find that several members and a high-ranking official in the White House are involved in a governmental conspiracy. Digging further, the detectives come upon Prescott Chemicals, where an elixir that was discovered in the Amazon Rain forest by the Mayapo natives years before, is now being transformed into a formula with irreversible consequences. While investigating a lead, the detectives accidentally come into contact with the elixir and experience a change to their bodies and minds causing some amusing, yet permanent issues. With the assistance of a beautiful journalist and a bitter French physicist, the detectives come upon the location of the perpetrators and uncover a plot which culminates into the betrayal and a secret that affects one of detectives, changing his life.</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.3999996185303px;"> </span></span>Susan Hornbachhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11808813505092348068noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7919193001880162239.post-71120173211969900052014-11-22T17:57:00.000-08:002014-11-22T17:57:14.152-08:00<div class="MsoNormal">

<span style="line-height: 150%;">West Chester Pennsylvania –Oct 1, 2014 - From a woman
who endured what most don't dream in a nightmare. This is the loneliness of
abuse. Let there be awareness that spouses do poison their mates, and authorities
do not put enough stock in the fact that it does happen every day to people who
are being silently abused. Many die without anyone knowing what killed them.
Poisonings and gassings are silent abuse that need to be expressed, and
exposed. So many never realize how much abuse they do submit to, thinking they
are merely sucking it up for the betterment of the relationship. An abusive
life can be replaced, and fulfilled with happiness. Abuse is a conditioning
that can be unlearned. If one can find the strength to believe in them self,
they can find their way out!</span></div>

This is a book to serve many. A book that will enlighten you on how the
treatment you accept from others is a huge factor to whether or not you will be
happy in your life. There are those mates who view their partner as a
possession. Possessions are discarded when no longer needed. A Voice in the
Night will provide hope for young people to find a safe ground to stand on; to
give them the warning signs early on when beginning to date. It is a book for
all ages to take notice of the treatment they allow from others. Erin Ireland

relationship. <o:p></o:p></div>

Ginger Nielson began her artist career early in life when she created a misty morning fog in the upstairs hallway of her parents Victorian home .She used her older sister's dusting powder and powder mitt as the catalyst. It was in the days when people still believed in spanking, but she talked her way out that one. <span id="yui_3_16_0_1_1412013607104_72124" style="line-height: 24px;">Coming to the world of children's illustration a bit later in life, Ginger was an elementary school teacher and art teacher before becoming a travel agent. Both of those careers enabled her to connect deeply with many children and many different cultures.</span><span class="yui_3_16_0_1_1412013607104_71562" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; line-height: 24px;"> Visit Ginger at </span><a href="http://www.gingernielson.com/" rel="nofollow" shape="rect" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: blue; cursor: text !important; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px;" target="_blank">http://www.gingernielson.com</a></div>

Years ago Lois peeked into her best friend’s refrigerator and found empty
shelves and<br />
one small carton of milk. Her best friend’s family didn’t have enough money to
buy<br />
food. Maddi’s Fridge is the result of that moment.<br />
<br />
A teacher by trade, Lois weaves together diverse images and events to create
stories<br />
for children. She lives near Seattle, WA, with her husband, assorted kids, two
dogs,<br />
and a fluffy cat who thinks he’s a dog. This is her first picture book.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">There be
dragons in this book. Lots of dragons. These dragons depict the hunger of a child. It’s a clever way to relate to young
children how others feel when they don’t have enough to eat. This story starts
out with one child with a problem, but he soon realizes he is not alone and
others have similar distress. The text written with rhythm and rhyme is sure to
delight little ears. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The story
teaches children how to reach out to their fellow students who are less
fortunate than themselves. The lessons in this book will stay with a child for
a life time. I believe any child who reads this book will remember it for
always and forever. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The colorful
and vivid illustrations in Oliver’s Hunger Dragon pop from the page, and are
sure to delight any child. I can’t say
enough about how informative and educational this book is, and how the lessons
here will stay with a child for many years to come.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">It’s just a wonderful book and I loved the way
the author Sherry Alexander expresses the importance for others to take notice
of those in need. Oliver’s Hunger Dragon
is a fun read for young children. In my
view, a keeper for any child’s library.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

This is her first picture book, and comes from her own childhood memory of two Portland Police Officers who brought her family a food basket when they were in need. It is her dream that someday no child will ever experience hunger again. She lives with her husband of 45 years on a small SW Washington ranch with their two horses, two dogs, and the occasional pack of coyotes.

of the story, it does not do justice to the adventures that take place within
these pages.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Come battle Neothors in the
Galaxy Bratheria with Simon, or maybe your fantasy would be to revel in the
Revolutionary war with the Redcoats attacking.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Whether you fence with Simon and the aliens on planet Meptee, survive on
Blackbeard’s ship with pirates, or dodge the Nazi soldiers in World War II, you
will experience Simon’s sometimes brutal and extreme imagination. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Throughout the story Simon’s fantasy is to
have someone he can count on always as a good friend. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Simon is viewed as an odd child, whispered about,
falsely accused, and laughed at, and all because others are not receptive
enough to realize the creative genius within him. The Birthday Book Club
Snatching is filled with life lessons,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>history,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>sibling kindness,
Dyslexia, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>awareness of those different,
fantasy, friendship, bullies, daydreaming, stealing, knowing right from wrong,
illegal aliens, educational content, and making the right choices. The most
entertaining aspect in the book is of course, Simon’s vivid imagination.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The most virtuous is honesty.</span></div>
