The Only Book on Spells You Will Ever Need.This Book is not a Book on "Wiccan Magick" , although Wiccans who are not fluff bunnies, and are more open mided to learning could use it, and benefit greatly from this Book.It is a book on Folk Magic, from Brujeria, Santeria, Espiritismo,...

For Many Shall Come in My Name Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Many, many thanks to Ray Yungen for doing what it takes to write this remarkable book. I have learned so much! Where does one begin to do this book justice?

Treasured: Knowing God by the Things He Keeps Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)How many books have we read to better understand God? Who is God? What is he like? Leigh McLeroy probes into these questions from a different perspective than most. A valid and (after-the-fact) obvious way. After all, the Scriptures say that you can tell what kind of tree something is by its fruit; how...

The Average Human Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The Average Human is a fantastic novel. It has everything--fascinating characters and a plot that keeps you guessing. You get to see the underbelly of a community and the people who live there. I absolutely LOVED it. Ms Toby-Potter has a way with the English language. I can't wait to read her next novel!!Click...

Faith Journey Through Fantasy Lands Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Few discussions will provoke opinions among believers as heated as whether or not Christians ought to enjoy works of popular fantasy.On the one hand, some claim believers should avoid these realms of the imagination. On the other, there are those Christians so desperate to justify their interest with...

Rick Steves' Great Britain 2009 Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Rick Steves' travel philosophy is to travel better by traveling cheaper and closer to the people. If your idea of a dream vacation is sleeping on the eighth floor of a high-rise hotel for a fortune every night, this is the wrong book for you. If your idea of wonderful is to sleep in an exquisite four-poster...

Dark Mysteries of the Vatican Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)In God's Name: An Investigation Into the Murder of Pope John Paul IThe subject of this book deserves more attention. The author goes down a road few others have explored and this is the worth of this book. Overall, an interesting read, yet, its historical inconsistencies unfortunately will bring the...

Wayfaring: Essays Pleasant and Unpleasant Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Alan Jacobs is in my estimation one of the foremost Christian men of letters around today. I discovered his writing in First Things, and immediately bought and read The Narnian: The Life and Imagination of C. S. Lewis (Plus) and Original Sin: A Cultural History. Both are tremendously interesting books...

Killing Monsters: Why Children Need Fantasy, Super Heroes, and Make-Believe Violence Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I recently stumbled across this book while shopping at a bookstore, and it came at a perfect time. I have a 3-and-a-half year old son that enjoys some shows that some people feel are not appropriate for young children. Shows like Power Rangers (his all-time favorite), Pokemon, and a few others. My son...

She tries to show her parents how mature she is by cleaning up and doing other jobs. She ends up showing that she is mature and goes to the Fall Festival with her brother and friends.

The Literature Teacher's Book Of Lists (J-B Ed: Book of Lists) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Americans seem fascinated by a top ten list of any category, so it is no surprise that someone has put together a top ten list for literature. Jodie Strouf in her THE LITERATURE TEACHER'S BOOK OF LISTS has attempted to encapsulate the broad swath of human endeavour that we call literature. Though the...

Journey to Gameland: How to Make a Board Game from Your Favorite Children's Book Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Written by a kid (with adult help) and illustrated by the kid's brother, JTG is a remarkable way to encourage creativity and get kids to do something besides watch TV or play on the computer.This isn't an adult book, so some of the advice (how to make money, pawns, etc) might make grown-ups cringe and...

Name That Movie A Painless Vocabulary Builder: Romantic Comedy and Drama Edition: Watch Movies and Ace the SAT, ACT, GED and GRE Review

Breaking the Magic Spell: Radical Theories of Folk and Fairy Tales Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I really love Jack Zipes, and this is one of his helpful books for folklorists, and amateurs who enjoy reading fairy tales. It presents a variety of 'radical' theories about the meaning and construction of fairy tales. Many of the theories are no longer quite so radical. The book also gives you a good...

The Children's Literature Lover's Book of Lists Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This thick volume would make a perfect companion (or predecessor) to the Literature Lover's Book Of Lists : Serious Trivia for the Bibliophile in the same series (see my review). Though probably intended for teachers and librarians, it will be found equally useful by homeschoolers and other parent/guardian...

The Dictionary of Imaginary Places: The Newly Updated and Expanded Classic Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I bought this book because I was intriqued by the concept. A book that catalogs all of the places mentioned in other books. What I got completely amazed me. Not only were the places cataloged and indexed by book and by place, but the descriptions were long, even better they included maps. The people...
