Customer Reviews:
While this certainly is a beginner book, it's not that great.......1998-10-08
Ms. Adelle's beginner books are generally just that, beginner books. This book basically tells you what a ferret looks like, but not much else. She leaves out many details that any new ferret owner would wonder about.

This was my first quilt! .......2006-09-13
I hadn't touched a sewing machine in 25 years...since Junior High school...I signed up for a quilting class at our local quilt shop and made this quilt, a queen size Trip Around the World following Eleanor Burns Quilt in A Day (more like a few weeks) pattern. I had a wonderful time and completed a beautiful quilt. I won't say that it was super easy, but it wasn't difficult. And I was an absolute beginner, I knew NOTHING about quilting. I found the directions to be very easy to follow. I have since purchased a few more of Quilt in A Day books and plan to make more quilts from their patterns.
First Time Quilters - Give it a try!.......2006-06-19
I made my first quilt using this book - about 10 years ago. I had never sewed anything outside of high school home ec. and it turned out beautifully. I went on to make 3 more in this pattern in various sizes. Super easy. Just take the book to the fabric store - it tells you exactly how much fabric to buy for each size. I am now going to try another pattern in the Quilt in a day series. It's really more of a "Quilt in a weekend" but that is fast enough for me!
World Quilt.......2005-08-03
This book by Eleanor Burns includes easy to follow instructions for all quilters, especially beginners. Helpful and easy advice.
Quick, Easy Quilt That Looks Lovely.......2003-05-30
I recommend this book to anyone who would like to be able to make a lovely quilt in a relatively short amount of time. Eleanor Burns' efficient, time-saving techniques are perfect for those of us who love quilts but aren't interested in long, drawn-out, complicated projects. When I bought this book, my sewing background consisted of three group sewing classes at the local fabric store. My only quilting experience was piecing together a pinwheel-design potholder. However, by using this book, I was able to sew my first quilt, a "Trip Around the World" baby quilt that turned out beautifully. I then used this book to piece together a queen-size "Trip Around the World" quilt top in just one Saturday (about 12 hours). Eleanor Burns' techniques are effective and easy to follow, and the results look terrific!
Trip Around the world Quilt (quilt in a day Series).......2002-05-24
This a a great book, This was only the second quilt I made and it was very easy to follow. So beginner don't be scared off by the tubes, once you see how they are made, you will love the ease of it.

Customer Reviews:
Not so good........2006-03-03
Didn't find this book very helpful. It's my first pruning book and I hope others are better. It was more of an overview than a 'how to, when to' guide. Even the specific plants it mentions only get a few sentences each.
Eyewitness Garden Handbooks: Pruning and Training.......2000-04-22
The Eyewitness Garden Handbooks: Pruning and Training was such a tremendous help to me in developing the beautiful garden I had always wanted. It was able to walk me through the difficult process of espalier techniques that had always been so difficult to grasp from the other books I had read for this involved procedure. The beautiful pictures and easy to understand language made this a book I will use year after year! I would recommend it to everyone!

no one has written a better book.......2006-06-01
As other reviews write, it is certainly a humble book. The section on the training of young trees (a mere 2 1/2 pages) is concise, easy to follow, and copied by many newer authors. Available at most nursery stores. You can find thicker books with more pictures and more discussion, but still, no improvement. Available from: Martin Bio-Products, Burbank CA. Carried by many nurseries, incl. Walter Andersen in San Diego, CA.
Book Description
In clear, concise detail this book shows how to look at your plot, assess it for size, aspect and soil structure and makes the best of the features it offers.

Book Description
Iyanla Vanzant is known internationally as the leading authority on spirituality and empowerment for Black women. As a featured speaker at the Million Man March, she launched her message to the Black men who have long been part of her following. With forthrightness and powerful insight, Vanzant teaches them how to recognize and draw upon the power of the spirit within themselves. Recognizing the obstacles set before Black men in the past and the powerful forces still at work against them today, Vanzant seeks to help both men and women nurture the strength and power they possess - that of their history, their souls, and their relationships with each other. The Spirit of a Man is a brilliant and transformative blend of practical self-help, contemporary spirituality and ancient African spiritual wisdom.

The Spirit of every Man.......1999-11-29
Author IYANLA VANZANT offers a spectular guide line, for every man who want to know his spiritual side of themself. The book offers a great guide for Afro-Americans, especially young African American male. My two elder brother read this book and they recommended i read it. This is the first book of VANZANT that i have read, and i would recommmend young African Americans to really read this book. "America's greatest crime against the Black man was not slavery or the lynching, but that he was taught to wear a mask of slef-hate and self-doubt" -Malcolm X
The Author included this quote in the book, It truely inspired me to think about who I am as a young Africa American male. Thank You VANZANT
Iyanla, I love you!.......1997-08-19
I am a 21 year old black man, who for so long knew that there was more to life but could not figure out what it was. Months of searching lead me to realize that I had to become more spiritual.
I went on to read numerous books on spirituality and self-improvement, but after learning these principles I had no way of applying them.
This book showed me how to apply what i had learnt and also taught me a lot more things about life and my relationship with the Creator.
This book is a must for every black man or woman who is at the entrance of the tunnel, sees the light at the end, but does not know how to walk through. Iyanla took my hand and I'm sure she'll take yours. After she has lead you to the light, you learn the ultimate lesson: you have been and will always be able to lead others through this tunnel.
Book Description
DISCIPLINE THEM,LOVE THEM
Practical Projects for Parents
This is a "doing" book-an exciting adventure in learning how to apply biblical principles as you discover practical ways to discipline and build self-esteem in your children. As you complete each of the 26 projects, you will experience life changes in your parenting.
Author and family-life authority H. Norman Wright says that Betty Chase's work "is both the finest researched and most biblical of any I have seen for parenting."
Part I takes a positive look at what the Bible says about child rearing. As you work through Part II, you will develop the skills and methods of effective discipline which will help you have more control and enjoy your children more. Part III gives you specific, practical ways to build self-esteem in your children.
If you are serious about equipping yourself for the task and privilege of parenting, this resource can help bring positive changes to your parent-child relationships.
Customer Reviews:
Great book for discipline ideas.......2006-02-27
Although this is a great book overall - it's geared in some areas for kids aged 4 years and older. The nice thing is that you can learn these principles and apply them to a toddler and look back over them for furure use. It really makes you think about all the forms of discipline and correction and decide which is best for the given situation. It gives loving guidance for the manner in which you correct your child's behavior.
best book on childrearing.......2005-08-31
In a class for marriage and family ministry the professor said that this was the best book in the category of childraising. I was a bit skeptical. But after reviewing nearly 50 books on the topic I had to agree. It includes basic theology on the subject,and tons of helpful teaching/guidelines. The format is also very pracitcal with exercises on each sub-category to help the reader evaluate what he thinks and practices. It helps him evaluate what values he holds and why. It then leads the reader to formulate biblically based convictions on various areas of raising children. One of the most informed and helpful sections is on how to discipline and have an overplan to develop/discipline a child. It discusses how intentional, positive discipline differs from punishment and a punishment-oriented style or childrearing.
Add Confidence to your Parenting!.......1999-08-21
This book is an excellent guide to Biblical teachings on discipline! You will learn God's plan for discipline of His children and how discipline of our own children should mirror it. This book will also help you understand the difference between discipline (training for correction and maturity administered in love and concern) and punishment (infliction of a penalty for an offense and past misdeeds usually administered in hostility and frustration) while providing plenty of tips on how to discipline using the six methods of correction.
This book gives you awesome tools and skills needed........1998-09-25
This book will change the way you look at your kids forever. It not only gives you biblical principals but gives you pratical ways to use them everyday. If you want to teach your children responsibility, trust, honor and more you need this book. You will have the tools and skills to raise your children in todays society after reading and studying this book.
Customer Reviews:
