A Good Read!
I loved this book. I read it twice in less than 2 weeks. If I'd had time, I'd have read it twice in 2 days. The stories were heart warming. I can't decide which is the best.

The Wheelwright's Shop
George Sturt
Cambridge University Press
, 1963
A personal search for meaning in a way of life that has past
I found this book to be a wonderful and informative treatise, both as a student and as an amateur woodworker. Sturt's narrative is a measured blend of documentary and moral argument, which is of equal or greater importance now, as when it was first published in 1923. ...
Simplify Your Riding: Step-by-Step Techniques to Improve Your Riding Skills
Wendy Murdoch
Carriage House Publishing, 2004
at last--clear answers for riders
I want to recommend this book from my personal experience...I find that it explains why we get so little results from all those endlessly-repeated (often shouted) directions from riding instructors. No amount of straining, sweating, or praying on our part will make ...
The Carriage House
Carla Neggers
Mira
, 2003
Good read, solid characters and plot
I enjoyed this book - it had solid characters and it was nice to revisit people from prior books. This book was superior to The Cabin, in my opinion, and thank goodness she cut down on the "texas ranger" phrase. Perhaps I'm missing something, but Neggers seems obsessed ...

Worth the price
If you're headed to Acadia for some hiking, biking, or whatever, get this little guide book. Inexpensive as it is, it gives a nice overview of the trails complete with fold out maps. It was quite helpful to us when we cycled throughout the park.

The Slant Book
Peter Newell
Tuttle Publishing
, 2001
One to read over and over
The crooked shape of this book gives a clue to what lies within. The Slant Book tells the tale of a boy whose stroller goes careening down a long hill, and the trouble he causes on the way down. The illustrations are great fun, and fill in the gaps where the words ...
