Review title: this book has a horrible message. Product review: I remembered loving this book as a child, but after reading it again after many years, I found it grotesquely disturbing. I almost felt like crying after seeing the way the tree was abused by the self-centered, greedy kid who never showed any gratitude for all the tree gave to him. It disturbingly gave me the idea that this was a metaphor for a married couple where the husband beats and neglects his wife. I know this book has a moral where people should give unconditionally, but this is a ridiculous mockery of that.

Review title: Strings break too easy Product review: Putting on these strings was very simple, but two strings broke when I put them on. I went to the store and bought another pack, put them on and within 2 hours of playing I broke another string that was bought from Amazon. I'm not sure if they were old when they were shipped, but I won't buy them again. They sounded good for the two hours they were on.

Review title: Junk Product review: After 6 months they are falling apart. One of the earphones broke in half, so I have been listening out of one ear only. The second one is now full of static....I have had $10 earphones last longer! BTW, I only use them for about an hour a day, so definitely not a heavy user.Even before they started breaking down, I was dissatisfied with them. None of the earbuds fit - I have gone through all of them trying them for a few weeks at a time. The cord is too heavy so the earbuds keep falling out when I am walking or jogging. I spent most of the time getting frustrated and jamming them into my ear canals than actually enjoying the music. They are ok if you listen to them in bed or when you are not moving - which defeats the purpose, especially at the $70 price tag.Save your money, and try something else! I am about to find out how the warranty works...
