The Remains of the Day
by
Kazuo Ishiguro

, March 04, 2007
I really enjoyed this book. The main characters view of the world was so skewed by what he felt was his duty, you had to rely on his interaction with others to see what was really going on.

Other Boleyn Girl
by
Philippa Gregory
Colette
, March 04, 2007
I could not put this book down and read it in two days. And it is a big book! The author does a wonderful job of drawing the reader into the story and you feel like you are right there in the middle of things along with the Boleyn sisters.

Queen Bee Moms & Kingpin Dads: Dealing with the Difficult Parents in Your Child's Life
by
Rosalind Wiseman and Elizabeth Rapoport
Colette

What parent doesn't deal with all of this at some point? We all hope we don't have to (and hope we aren't one of the "bad" parents!!!) but it happens to the best of us. Read this and at least get a chuckle out of the fact that we never really leave junior high.

My children love this book! It is one that I read and reread several times a day. Fabulous for their imaginations.
