by wlswarts
Pros: A few decent lyrics, Generally sounds all right
Cons: Some breathy vocals that are annoying, Short!

Who would have known that a group of guys from Omaha Nebraska could write songs that belong on the beach when they are so far away? 311 has done just that as well as rocked out hard over their career of genre-bending music. You can hear the metal, ...

Judy Sheridan - How to Work With an Interior Designer
Who reads this book?
by Shanti
Pros: Explains how designers help, and photos give plenty of ideas.
Cons: The author is a designer, so her arguments for hiring one are compelling.
I work in an industry concerned with home decor, architecture, trends, etc., so I try to stay abreast by reading a lot of books on homes. When I ran across "How to Work With an Interior Designer," I had to read it just because it seemed like such an odd ...

Jane O'Connor - Bonjour, Butterfly
Fancy Nancy Goes to France....Well Not Really. The Butterfly Garden Trip
by pablothegreat
Pros: Extra vocabulary words, fun story, Nancy's sense of style, gorgeous pictures, girly...more
Cons: Almost cursive writing.

My daughter was first introduced to Fancy Nancy in our local library. I suspected that she would not care for these types of books after all, she is not a girly girl at all. Dressing up fancifully is not her idea of a good time! What I found was that ...

Grizzly Park
This ain't no Gentle Ben!--Grizzy Park may be the best Bear movie...
by jbrd
Pros: Extremely entertaining, they used a real bear, incredible twist at the end.
Cons: A slow spot.
Bears aren't scary. Plain and simple. I do not find them scary at all, even if they were roaring. However, being right in front of one, sure, but not in movies. Killer bear movies have always been bad. I haven't had much experienced with them, but after ...

David M. McPhail - Pigs Aplenty, Pigs Galore!
So Many Pigs! But Where Did They Come From?
by bilbopooh
Pros: fantastic paintings, great verses
Cons: no explanation of the pigs' presence
Pigs are popular subjects of children's books. I can think of at least a dozen different authors who have written about pigs with great success. Of course, one of my all-time favorite fictional pigs is Wilbur, the humble fellow at the heart of ...

Gene Zion - No Roses for Harry!
For Harry, Some Gifts Are Better Left Unopened
by bilbopooh
Pros: funny and ultimately sweet
Cons: cover art doesn't match the inside
Unlike Ralphie, that poor beleaguered lad in A Christmas Story, I never had to suffer through grotesquely embarrassing gifts created especially for me by a caring relative. Partly I suspect that's because it seems to be more of a problem for boys; ...

Pros:

good use of camping theme, fun pictures


Cons: not an original story by the Reys
Every year, my family spends a weekend camping at Little Pine State Park in central Pennsylvania. It's always a terrific time, but for many years, before we could sit around the campfire roasting marshmallows, we had to assemble our tents, a task which ...

Pros: Good cast especially Caine, Furie's direction, John Barry's incredible music score...

by pablothegreat
Pros: Curious George stories, large book, kept my child busy!
Cons: Curious George oddly smokes in one of the stories.


Curious George is just like those family friendly little Berenstain Bears, always getting into something and learning a lesson from it. Or rather the children reading the books learn a lesson! My child doesn't really like the laugh-inducing comedies ...

Music Box by Mariah Carey
I Want To Take Mariah Carey's "Music Box" & Smash It To Pieces

Pros:

"Dreamlover". "I've Been Thinking About You". That's it.


Cons:

A collection of ballads on constant loop in my own personal jukebox from hell.


Tons of folks complain about Mariah Carey's hip-hop identified, hoochie mama image now and contrast it to her chaste, ballad-belting early career. Granted, Mimi didn't need to vamp it up to the level that she has (when was the last video she made in ...
