You've heard of criminals that "got off on a technicality" Did you know that people can get killed the same way? This is a very thought provoking book written by a lawyer that had been a death penalty supporter until he came to see the flaws in our system. It is very different from the usual stories about the death penalty. A very readable and very real look at how our courts work. Executed on a Technicality is a must read that points out a problem that we must fix.
This book is perfectly named. It is a really wonderful story of a woman struggling to find the right place for her heart. It is roll-on-the-floor hysterical and very touching at the same time. I have been reading small pieces of it to all of my friends and family. I'll have to get a bunch for Christmas presents too. It was truly a joy to read.

What a delightful little book! A very fun story told with such wonderful illustrations I love to read it over and over. If you aren't sure if ghosts are real after this book I recommend that you read "Ghosts in the House!" by Kazuno Kohara. Another wonderful children's book that will show you what you can do with a ghost.
Need a laugh? Here it is! We bet our friends a free dinner that they cannot read aloud without laughing "The History of the World According to Student Bloopers". We haven't had to pay out yet!
Get it! It will make your day!
Remember laughter is the best medicine.
Kids wish that every day would be Halloween. Here is a book that will make you wish the same. This beautiful and surprising book about a house full of ghosts made me laugh out loud. I read it aloud to everyone and they all loved it.
