Lost souls.......1999-12-09

'El invierno en Lisboa' is an interesting exercise into a group of characters, lost in their daily lives and connected by loose ties of friendship, love and hate. Written in 1988, when the author was 32, the book contains traces of the distinctive style that Muñoz Molina developed later on in the 90's.

Book Description

In this simple, evocative book a little girl stands at a frosty window waiting for her mother to come home. She draws in the condensation on the windowpane and wonders where her mother is and when she might return. This book, featuring wonderfully atmospheric images by Mandana Sadat, perfectly captures both the feeling of a foggy, gray winter afternoon and the kind of lonesome, hopeful, watchful waiting that is so familiar to any child who has waited for a parent.

Book Description

In the final installment in the series, Francisco X. Alarcón shows children a city where people are bridges to each other and children sing poetry in two languages. A family frolic in the snow reminds the poet of the iguanas playing by his grandmother's house in Mexico. Readers are dazzled by the promise of the seedling redwoods — like all children — destined to be the ancestors of tomorrow.

Maya Christina Gonzalez creates a spirited family of children and adults who swing their way through colorful pages. Collages of old maps of Mexico and California provide intriguing backgrounds, and fun-loving iguanas peek out from the most surprising places.

Customer Reviews:

This is a valuable and good guide, but not a great guide........2003-06-13

This edition is ripe for update (the information in this guide is more than three years old). The lodging and restaurant profiles are adequate, but dated.

I live near Cusco and have seen new and better accommodations, restaurants and dives open up. When I was in Cusco, in May, 2003, Footprint was there researching the next Cusco edition.

The one constant is the information on the attractions and ruins - timeless. Ben Box is at his best describing and touring the spectacular antiquity of Cusco, Machu Picchu and surrounding areas.

When it comes to profiling tour operators, Ben Box is superb. Especially consider his profiles if you are hiking the Inka Trail or want to see Manu Reserve (only 10 lic. operators). He has also highlighted some of the NGOs working with abandoned children and environmental issues - applaudable indeed.

The best place in Peru for up to date information is the 'South American Explorers Club' in Cusco (Lima has a club house too). The address given in this edition is old, SAE moved over a year ago. The new address is 188 Choquechaca #4, Cusco (Tel. 84-245484)

On the downside, the index is paltry and this guide lacks an accommodations or restaurants index. Thus, if you have a recommended restaurant you want to look up in a large city (Lima, Cusco etc.) you have to go through all the restaurant pages 'til you stumble across the name you seek or miss seeing it completely.

The publisher's use of paid advertisements for hotels, tour companies, calling cards and travel services (over 20 ads in this guide - many full page) are intrusive and causes one to question the integrity of the guide, when the same company with a full page ad is profiled and recommended by the author.

Also disturbing and disappointing is Ben Box's quick gloss-over of the rising crime in Cusco. Last year there was a rash of taxi robberies and rapes. The police in Cusco are a joke. Anyone with a car and who sticks has "TAXI" written on the front window is not questioned by the authorities. Thus, criminals cruise in private cars with a "TAXI" sticker and prey on unsuspecting tourists, especially women. Ben Box's coverage of crime and safety in Cusco is basically non-existent. Much better is the more recent 'Footprint - Peru' Guide.

These things noted, Instead of this guide I would encourage you to consider the 'Footprint - Peru' Guide 4th Edition (make sure it is the 4th Ed.). The "Peru" 4th edition has much more than this guide has and is more current. However, when Footprint brings out, the soon to come, Cusco 2nd edition, then I would strongly consider that guide.

An excellent guidebook.......2003-01-20

Have used many guidebooks over the years. This one is excellent. Good background and history, well organized and concisely written. Reliable information on hotels and restaurants and on getting around. It could provide more and more reliable information on shopping with less of an emphasis on handicrafts.

As for most guidebooks, the authors sometimes get carried away by their own enthusiasm for the place.

But still a great guide along with its sisters we used on the same trip for Peru, and Ecuador and the Galapagos and the South America and Africa Footprints we have used on other trips.

Book Description

Nothing’s more anticipated than the Senior Prom . . . except the day seniors claim as their own.

Everyone’s been so caught up with the college thing, Evan thinks they’ve forgotten how to have a good time.

Well, all that’s about to change . . . because he’s going to organize the best Senior Cut Day ever.

senior cut day.......2003-07-21

i thought that this book was ok, but not really all that. it had a kind of bittersweet edge to it... u can feel that they are wrapping up their senior year and things are going to change soon. i was really disappointed that conner and liz didn't end up together, after all that they been through. jade annoyed me through this whole thing because she was so whiny.

this is so sad.......2003-04-05

i cna't believe connor and liz don't get 2gether. they were great 2gether. i reread all of the scenes of them 2 2gether. i was hopin they wud kiss in senior cut day. they were the best relationship ever. i hope pascal brings him bak and sweet vally BETTA have not ended. i live 2 read these books. i am so depressed i want dem 2 b 2gether(god im sad)

an ok book.......2003-01-22

I bought this book along with Sweet 18, thinking I should read Senior Cut Day first, let me tell you, I didn't have to. It is all focused around the twins, their friends and their senior cut day where they decide to go to Universal Studios. Jessica and Trent get cast as extras in a movie leaving Jeremy and Jade to commiserate together. Elizabeth and Conner talk about their relationship, or lack of. And Tia and Andy's boyfriends realize they shouldn't be on the road trip with them and Conner. All in all, an ok book.

an ok book.......2003-01-22

Pleased yet displeased.......2003-01-13

Okay, big fan of the whole liz conner thing...i just hated it when it ended. And i was totally happy when the whole alaina thing ended. Though i have to say, as a whole, we readers are being toyed with. Yes/no, no/yes. Though i have to admit thats what has kept me interested. Conner and liz, there will never be another couple like them. This book has some seriously good parts, for all us Liz and Conner fans. Overall, it was good, though slightly disapointing. Im still holding out for them.
