    5 out of 5 stars Madame Alexander 2007 Collector's Dolls Price Guide .......2007-06-12

    I got this for my daughter who collects dolls, especially Madame Alexander dolls. She uses the book frequently and likes it very much.
    I recommend it although it doesn't have every doll made by Madame Alexander.

    5 out of 5 stars An A-Z listing of the dolls and their latest values.......2007-06-09

    Linda Crowsey's MADAME ALEXANDER: 2007 COLLECTOR'S DOLLS PRICE GUIDE #32 is an updated collector's price guide no Madame Alexander doll collector should miss. It packs in an A-Z listing of the dolls and their latest values, and while it includes some small color photos, its value lies in the latest updated prices collectors need to make informed buying and selling decisions.

    4 out of 5 stars Madame Alexander Collectors Dolls price Guide.......2007-05-21

    I was hoping for more pics of antique Madame Alexander Dolls, but it is good information.

    5 out of 5 stars Doll Collecting Made easy.......2007-03-09

    This is by far always one of the best reference books around for Madame Alexander Doll Collectors. It gives you a great guideline for what your dolls are worth as well as exquisite photos of dolls that you may never have the opportunity to own or even see in person. I will be a yearly buyer for as long as they keep puplishing!

    4 out of 5 stars Excellent reference book for newer Alexanders.......2005-01-23

    This is a terrific book with nice photos and is accurate. If you are a newer collector or a seasoned collector, this book is a great one to own!

    5 out of 5 stars Great Book!.......2000-02-27

    Great book, accurate pricings, great pictures, but not recent enough. It is 10 years old. Still, I highly recommend it.

    4 out of 5 stars Madame Alexander Dolls, 1965-1990.......1999-12-26

    A very informative book if you are looking to determine when your Madame Alexander doll was made and how much it might be worth. Full of great color pictures and a lot of good information on Madame Alexander dolls. The 1999 price guide in the back (which only gives prices for the dolls shown in the book) is very helpful in determining the value of the dolls.

    5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Pictures and history of dolls.......1999-11-19

    This book is great for those that wish to know the history of the Madame Alexander Dolls. The book is done in sections, telling about the different faces used and lists those that are in that catagory. At the back of the book is listed prices for the dolls, which is great if you are buying or in on auction of Madame Alexnder Dolls. This book will wet your appetite to try and obtain some of the older dolls. A great buy and addition to your library..

      Book Description

      inda Crowsey The author of our bestselling Madame Alexander Collector's Dolls Price Guide and Madame Alexander Store Exclusives Limited Editions has produced yet another guide to Madame Alexander dolls, this one the most comprehensive yet. Concentrating on Cissy, Lissy, Cissette, Alexander-Kins, Little Genius, and Elise, this book continues the theme of the late Patricia Smith's Encyclopedia of Madame Alexander Dolls, 1965 - 1990, which was a great seller for many years. This encyclopedia spans the years 1948 through 1965, which covers the vintage hard plastic dolls of the golden era of Madame Alexander dolls. Most of the highest valued dolls today were made during this period. The dolls from this era consistently win top honors in competition at the national conventions of the Madame Alexander Doll Club. Many of the dolls that began in this period(Cissy, Wendy, and Cissette) are the center of the Madame Alexander line today, after a time span of almost 50 years. You won't want to miss this exhaustive resource on the dolls made by the Madame Alexander Doll Company.

      2 out of 5 stars Not well organized and incomplete listing.......2006-11-13

      I purchased this book specifically to look up the value of my 1991 limited edition porcelain bride and the porcelain collection wasn't even listed. This listing is not complete and poorly organized.

      4 out of 5 stars Useful reference for this niche collectable..........2000-05-27

      This book is full of good information. It has lists of (seemingly) every Madame Alexander doll ever made. It has relatively accurate pricing (although be aware that online auctions often make such price guides irrelevant). My only quibble is that I wish it had many more pictures than it does, so as to make identifying dolls easier. Other than that, it's a fine book.

      5 out of 5 stars An important, seminal doll collector's guide........2000-04-06

      Linda Crowsey's Madame Alexander appears in a pamphlet-style booklet which may be lost without spine lettering, but which provides an important, specific doll collector's guide to this series.

      4 out of 5 stars Great Book- but it's missing something!.......2000-07-14

      I am just getting back into collecting Madame Alexander dolls. I have been collecting Barbie for the last 10 years and had a MA collection which I sold about 2 years ago. I think this is a great book with an extensive list of dolls. The only thing keeping it from getting 5 Stars is that there are not that many style numbers. For instance, there are so many Spain & Mexico dolls, I can't really tell which I have, by looking at this book. Maybe the next book, he'll list style numbers. Otherwise, I think it's great.

      5 out of 5 stars Author replies!.......2000-04-21

      As this author of this book, I am thrilled to present the reader with up to the minute pricing and identification. For over seventy years, the Alexander Doll Company has spelled magic to children and adults alike. This edition is unique in that it lists individual dolls that collectors desire. Store specials and one-of-a-kind dolls are also highlighted. I hope you enjoy reading this book with the same enthusiam that I had writing it! A. Glenn Mandeville

      5 out of 5 stars One of the BEST books on Madame Alexander dolls.......2000-04-13

      If you're interested in Madame Alexander Dolls then this book is a MUST HAVE. It's organized and easy to read. It's a book for the beginner or the long time collector it's that good. I would highly recommend this book.

                The Parent's Handbook: Systematic Training for Effective Parenting

                The Parent's Handbook: Systematic Training for Effective Parenting (Step)
                By Don Dinkmeyer Sr., Gary D. McKay, & Don Dinkmeyer Jr.

                The authors of "Systematic Training for Effective Parenting" admit that living with teenagers is at best a challenging, and often a daunting, experience. They maintain that it is necessary to appreciate, respect and love one another. The book emphasizes natural and logical consequences, encouragement, belonging, parent-child communication skills, understanding, and family meetings.

                4 out of 5 stars Court-approved Parenting Book.......2006-03-25

                If you're ever so unfortunate as to get on the wrong side of the Texas Family Court Services or Child Protective Services then this is the book for you. Literally.

                This book, along with attending a class, is required to get a certificate that says you're capable of being a responsible parent.

                5 out of 5 stars Loved This Book!.......2006-03-16

                I recommend this book to any parent, whether just beginning the process or several years into the experience. I did not purchase it until my son was five, but I've learned a lot from it. Now, instead of panicking every time he challenges me, I remember what I've learned and go from there. Wish someone had recommended it to me earlier. I can see myself changing into a more positive parent, instead of a negative one. The book does take it step-by-step as the title indicates. Every page has so much information on it, I still refer back to it again and again.
